Unpopular Opinions and Confessions

Warning, this post contains way too much information for some people...but then again, if you're reading my blog, you probably aren't easily offended. ;)

1.  I fell asleep during sex on New Years Eve...I finished before Travis and I fell asleep three times while I waited for him to finish.

2.  I'm still afraid of the upstairs hallway in my parents house.  It creeps me out.  I can't walk down it without the light on.

3.  There is one reason and on reason only that I am looking forward to going back to Jersey (yeah, I can't believe the last nine words of that sentence ever crossed my mind).  I want to get the mail because my cloth diapers should be there!!

4.  I got one of those tummy hider tucker-inner things for New Years Eve.  I don't even know what they are called but I couldn't stand how I looked with the damn spare tire hanging over my pants, and the thing REALLY worked.  I may end up wearing it on a daily basis, just to make myself feel better.

5.  One of Travis's friends has made us a couple things for Bella.  Some of them are absolutely adorable and some of them are...not.  I'm always so thankful for gifts, but there's been a couple times that I've looked at the not-so-cute stuff and wondered wtf she was thinking.

6.  I get REALLY bothered by how much sleep Travis gets sometimes.  He falls asleep before me at night.  I'm the one who wakes up with Bella at night because he doesn't hear her and I have to wake him up if I want him to go get her.  He wakes up after me in the morning.  And lately he's been taking naps that last up to six hours during the day.  It bothers the hell out of me.  I need sleep too.  I love him and I know he does so much for us, but damnit I am so exhausted that I've been so tempted to put the pillow over his face a couple times.

7.  I think its irresponsible for people to drink very often around their children.  I've seen a lot of families that have a couple beers or cocktails at every meal or gathering and it makes their children think that its no big deal, so they start drinking really early.  Its one thing to have a drink every once in awhile with a nice meal or something, but I think it happens too often with some families.

8.  I don't understand why some people freak out about getting their child on a schedule.  I understand that it makes thing easier, but it seems cruel to try to make a baby stick to a schedule.  They'll be on someone else's schedule for the rest of their lives...let them set their own for at least a little while.

9.  I have a lot more...but I can't remember them.  I'm really sidetracked by waiting for Travis to get home right now.
