What happened to me?!? I used to zip around this town like it was nothing. I-15..piece of cake. 95..forget about it…no problems there. Not so much anymore. Now I’m a scary, slow, grandma driver. I hate going on the freeways…for that matter I hate leaving the 5 block radius that I live in. Anything I need is right here…family is close, shopping, parks…why would I possibly need to go any further. Except..occasionally I do. I need to travel outside of my little bubble and every time I have to leave my “safe place” I get stressed. Missing naps, delaying naps, messing up our sleep schedule stresses me out. Having meltdowns in public stresses me out. Driving with all of the looney tunes out there stresses me out. Please, please tell me this anxiety and stress goes away and not that it gets worse with age. That would be very, very bad.

Pictures of the babies in their forward facing carseats. I finally convinced Jeff to turn them around a couple of weeks ago. The babies LOVE to face foward. The first couple of times Shenzie was in her foward facing seat she just giggled and giggled. It was so cute…you would never guess how much she likes it from that frown she’s wearing.

It gets better! MUCH BETTER! I used to be a total stress case and now I’m not at all. You will get there! I used to be a nervous wreck all the time. Really!
The kids have gotten so big! I can’t believe it!
