Where Oh Where?

did September go? I just don't even remember the month starting, ending, or much less even living during it. I do remember one day, and quite vividly. September 14. Quincy's birth date. Now that was a wild day. I remember that one, some parts more than others, and some parts I wish I could forget. All in all, an awesome day though.

I know that I started the month off very pregnant and very excited that the month had finally arrived. I was working full time to help cover for a vacationing employee at work. Not a good time to try and work full time. But, thankfully, I HAVE THE BEST CO-WORKERS EVER, and was able to manage close to full time employment. The vacationing coworker was to return on Wednesday, and that morning, my body kind of quit on me. It refused to do any more work. I called in and told my boss that I'd let him know something on Friday after my OB doctors visit. Saturday I went into labor and Quincy was born on Sunday.

So, I know that I sort of blocked out the first part of the month because I was miserably pregnant and working a lot, trying to survive. Then, after Quincy came the sleep deprivation started and I can blame my lack of memory on that! But anyway, where did the month go? Kind of like me wondering where the day went when it is time for John to be home at 6pm and I'm still in my pj's wondering why it takes more than 12 hours to attempt to get a shower. Forget fixing the hair, putting on makeup, or changing into anything else except now a clean pair of pj's. A pair that doesn't have spit-up, breast milk, blood, sweat, and tears on it. Literally. And many other things that I won't mention. Ugh.

So, it is October, and I've sort of missed a month out of this year. Hopefully this month will bring more of a routine to the madness, and I will remember it! I know that I'm going to remember this day. I got up and completed all of the things that I had to do, like feed Quincy, pump so John can feed Quincy later, change my pj's, eat breakfast, blogged....and now, the part that I will remember? John and Quincy are sleeping in our bed together. It is a rainy Saturday morning. I'm going to join my family in a warm cozy bed on a Saturday morning. I will remember this day:)
