Day 100....triple digits, whoo!

Apr 29

Martyn is 100 days old today! That is so fantastic! If we were Korean, we would be having a 100 day celebration for him...I'll just celebrate by telling everyone, ha!

I felt better this morning getting up, and it was hard to leave Martyn and Eli again because they looked so cozy in the recliner together. It didn't take long once at work however, to start feeling miserable, and feel that way for most of the day. At least it was the month end, so it was busy enough to kind of keep me distracted from my plight.

It seems like it would be strange symptoms, but I have to admit, there's a very very small part of me that is kind of hoping whatever my problem is, are pregnancy symptoms.....I seriously doubt they are though. Just to really clarify too, I don't want babies a year apart. Apparently though, a little bit of me does. I'll leave it at that.

When I got home tonight, Walt and Mary Jane, and their new puppy, Sissy, were all over for a visit. I started to play with the puppy when I walked in the door because she just came right over to me, but I looked up and saw Martyn and decided I'd better pay attention to him first....and wanted to pay attention to him first. I guess he was fussing a whole bunch right before I got there again, and calmed down when he saw me coming up to the door. Poor boy, he misses his mama during the day. He was in pretty good spirits for most of the evening, and allowed me to pass him off a few times to either Eli or grandparents.

So I could get some good puppy play time in too. That little pup is gonna be a big girl, and full of herself when she's grown up. She was a little feisty and frisky. I enjoyed playing with her.

It struck me odd, this was the first time I've played with a puppy that young, and didn't have that puppy want pang. In fact, playing with her and Sheba together, and holding Martyn later, made really NOT want a puppy right now. I have a 3 and half month old son, and a 2 year old dog....I do not have time for a puppy. It felt good to come to that conclusion.

For once I will be like the grandparent....I'll get to play with the puppy when we see her, but I don't have to worry about any of the training....although I think I probably will have a lot of training input, that I won't be able to keep to myself, ha!

I'm looking forward to Martyn being big enough to interact with Sheba, and now Sissy too. Oh, that reminds me...Eli told me the dogs were out playing in the yard earlier and everyone was out there watching them. Martyn just bust out laughing, his first real laugh/giggle. He must have really liked watching the dogs, that is so cute!

And I missed it. *sigh* I supposed that's just something I'll have to get used to. At least it was Eli and his parents who heard it, and not the nanny. Still though, I'm his mama....I shouldn't have to miss out on things like that. Some day, hopefully we'll be in a position where I can be with my son full time and don't have to worry about missing out on things like that. For now though, we're working on it.
