Survival mode.  I have a 9 month old, and I am still in survival mode.  She won't take a bottle during the day.  She hates baby food and only wants real food.  She's trying to be a big kid, but she's still a babe.  She's waking twice a night to eat, and we feed her, cause she refuses it during the day.  She's waking at 5am most mornings and taking 3-4 naps a day.  Survival mode.  It's exhausting. 

As for Eli-- playing with the idea of putting him in preschool in January.  Two mornings a week.  It would be great for him to be social.  I don't feel 100% peace about it just yet, but praying...

My Addie is loving life and loving school.  She works hard at school and at home.  Even doing multiplication problems, thanks to Uncle Aaron who teaches her math every time they're together :) 

I've said it before... being a mom is the greatest and toughest job in the world.

Thank you for being honest and sharing your heart.

Survival mode is so tough. We are in one of those phases right now. This too shall pass is my mantra.
