Piping hot heap of momma guilt.....

Well has anybody else noticed that summer is o-v-e-r? What happened?! World's worst blogger has struck again. Hopefully, y'all haven't been sitting on the edge of your seats waiting for me to post. I am posting today to share some of my searing, gut gnawing momma guilt I am currently feeling. At this very moment the beautiful Pea of Sheba is napping in her big 'ol comfy KING sized bed. We had to visit Dr. Glover this morning...... the Pea has a double ear infections. Yes. Both. Ears. How did I discover this you ask? Stuff. Started. Coming. Out. Of. Her. Ears. She had a little cold over the weekend but sure enough Monday morning I packed her up and carted her off to daycare while I went on to school to take care of other people's children. Same thing Tuesday, off to daycare then I went to teach some 1st graders some stuff. Insert mental image of lion tamer with a chair and a whip here, no not Sigfried and Roy but the old timey kind with a top hat. Went to a meeting last night and came home to find Dada, the Pea's faithful servant, cuddling the Pea. She didn't feel good. She has stuff coming out of her ears. Why hadn't I noticed something wasn't right?.... Momma was too busy worrying about her new job. Momma was letting the stress of her new job make her less of a good Momma. Check. Awesome. Nothing like Momma guilt to make a stressful situation a whole lot better right? Right? Anybody?......Hmph. Sssssooooo we have the medicine. She is resting. I am having a burrito and crying. Thought now would be a good time to blog. Share the misery and guilt. Even with the worlds worst Momma, the Pea of Sheba had a great summer. She went to the beach which she loved all except that pesky sand.

 She loved to put the bucket on her head, notice worlds worst Momma in the background laughing and working on her tan.

                                                            Harlem Globetrotter Pea!

                                                The Pea with ALL of her great uncles!

               Pea and the Wookie doin what they do best, being unbelievably adorable and cute!
                         
                                       This is pure Pea of Sheba people! Brace your selves!

This is my living room at this very moment, as we speak. No we aren't moving, no we aren't having an indoor yard sale. The Pea LOVES cardboard boxes and has single handedly converted our living room into a swell playroom. She is working on getting her own show on HGTV called just Playroom It!~



In spite of having me as a Momma, she is doing great. Growing, but not much. I think the Pea is going to be petite like her Mimi and her great Granny Troxell. She is like a tiny stick of dynamite full of fun and surprises at every single turn. She loves to laugh and sing and generally is the life of the party. She is talking like crazy and is the smartest baby I have ever met. Again, and I know I say this every single post and every single day but I can't believe she is mine and I can't believe how lucky I am!
