Happy Wednesday! FINALLY!
A lot of you know but some of you don't know that I have 7 animals. Yes, 7: 2 man-rats, 1 ferret, 3 cats and 1 pug. They are a ton of work but Shawn and I work together to make it all happen. I have sold myself short for the last time (as of yesterday) by saying that I don't have an idea of what it's like to have children just by comparing it to the work the sheer amount of animals we have take. I DO.
This was my Tuesday:
No nap for mommy.

This was my Tuesday:
- Woke up at 5AM because I couldn't sleep anymore. I just got ready instead of laying there until I was tired enough to sleep but late enough that I couldn't.
- Did not get to work early. Just on time despite having 2 and a half hours to get ready.
- Worked a full day at work.
- Came home and planned to take a nap while the ferret ran around in the room for exercise.
- Instead cleaned up water-diarrhea that the ferret had all over the floor.
- Gave a wiggly, feisty ferret a bath.
- Cleaned up all the residual mess of half-done tasks invoked by weasel scat.
No nap for mommy.
ANGRY FAAAAACE! |
Then I made dinner for our friends and their almost-2-year-old boy who are a delight. Dinner turned out well, we had just enough food and desserts for everyone, and they told me that Peach is more of a PITA than a new baby. And a toddler.
Much more.
After the day I had, to know that if I can deal with Peach that I can handle our future baby (in the eyes of experienced parents), I feel good about that. So good news there.
Cuz Peach is a crrrazy bitch sometimes; even if she looks sweet.
PS: I wore this today and I must say... I look good today. I'm having a "Jamie Moment!"

You are a great fur momma, Hillary, and are going to be an awesome human momma, too! :)
@Heather thank you! I have lots more confidence in myself and my momma skills after realzing this!
7 animals? Very jealous.. I have 5 (including 2 fish which I thought would be easy to look after.. not so)
Your pug is so cute!
Jealous. :( I want a dog. I have a cat but she's kind of stuck up and not very cuddly. Your pooch makes me dog hungry. But not in a Chinese food kinda way. ;)
Your future baby is one lucky baby to have you as a mama!
