So yesterday and tomorrow the father has extended visits with my 9 month old. 9 hour vists - OMG! They are long and after the first two long visits my son is showing signs of separation anxiety. His WHOLE night routine and nap routine are gone (I spent SOOOOO long perfecting them and all my hard work is gone) and he won't let me put him down.
Being a single mom is really tough on me, and I thought that with my son being born into life this way, it would be easy on him: But it really hasn't been. I have done everything through my court life to ease my son into long visits with his father for my sons sake, and it's like nobody cares about the little baby! It's all about the dad!
It's so tough to see my little man struggle with this, but I hope that once we get back to our normal visits (Saturday) we can ease him into longer visits with his father and things can go smoothly for my little man.
On a personal note, having 9 hours yesterday with no baby around, wasn't too bad. I got my house cleaned, my work done, my hair and make up done. I had a lot of time to myself which I haven't had since my man was born. My house looks and smells like a Mr. Clean commercial!! Everything is sparkling and smells great! But I missed him dearly! Everything he does makes me smile! It's incredible how much joy a child can bring into your life.
I just worry about my little man and how hard this is on him. The life of a single mom is a challenging and worrysome life, but one I wouldn't change for the world! I love my son more than life!

So Christmas has come and gone and it was a whirlwind. This was my first Christmas as a mom, and I didn't even get to spend the day with my son; but that's ok the day flew by. We did most of our Christmas this year, on Christmas eve at my parents house. Man there were a lot of presents.
Christmas morning my son and I woke up, we opened his presents from Santa and then off he went to be with his father from 10-5 (yup. he is only 9 months and he was affected by this. But it was court ordered nothing I can do. Next year though, I should have him).
It actually worked out okay, as the day went by I got all of his presents put together so when he woke up this morning, he could play with them all. He loves them! Actually, I probably love them more!!!heheheh!!!
You know you are a mom and getting old when your favorite presents were your stainless steel pots and your sons farm house! I cooked in my new pots this evening with my son played in his farm house and all worked out great!
We had a great Christmas and I hope that all of you did too!
happy holidays and happy new year!

So with the holiday season being here, I have had a hard time to get on here and write! I have never been so excited for Christmas as I am this year. I know my son is only 9 months old, and has no idea what is going on, but I am sooooo excited for Christmas morning for him to get all his new presents.
So excited in fact, that he has already opened 2! I couldn't wait! hehehe!
Christmas with children around brings back the magic and butterflies and excitement. I am so excited for him, and the years of Santa he has ahead of him. My Christmas's as a child were so magical and I have such great memories I can only hope his are just as great, if not more, than mine!
Well, he does have one advantage. Santa will visit him at my house and then he will go to his dads and Santa will have been there too! How great is that for him!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone out there. May your holiday season be filled with joy and laughter (and dont' have too much eggnog folks)
