12 weeks

We had our 12 week appointment today to listen to the baby's heartbeat. Everything sounded fine and the hb was in the 160's which is perfect. I have not had any symptoms except for being unbearablY tired. I have had to literally drag myself all over the house today trying to get things picked up in conjunction with entertaining and taking care of Taylor. After the dr. appt. we had to run to the grocery store to pick up a few things and I didn't know if I could make it out of there or not. It really was that bad. Sometimes I am so exhausted that I can barely breathe.

To top things off I have a Staph infection under my left arm and I have to take antibiotics to try to shrink the infection. My left arm is tingly and hot, and the infection hurts so bad that I can't put my arm down by my side.

Taylor is now 13 months and let me tell you, this little girl has developed a terrible temper. She hates to have her diaper changed. She screams and kicks. She throws her food on the floor when I let her feed herself because she won't let us feed her anymore. She loves to see the dogs eating her food off the floor. She goes 100mph and is always in something she's not supposed to be into. I honestly don't know how I am keeping up with her. Well, I'm just worn out. I called around to see if someone had a morning daycare for a few hours that I could put her into in order give us both a break. Also, she needs to spend time with other kids her age. However, she wasn't old enough for any of them yet and they were very expensive.

I am hormonal, emotional, and exhausted beyond comprehension. I need help. I need prayers. I need a maid and a babysitter. I have no idea how I can deal with another baby. I know that God doesn't give us more than we can handle but sometimes I seriously think he over estimates me!!!

If anyone would like to come out for a week or two you are MORE THAN WELCOME!!!!
