I do not want the pediatrician to tell me that Bear can begin eating solid food whenever he shows interest. I am not ready for my baby to be 4 months old. I am not, I am not, I am not.
And yes, I am having a bit of an emotional temper tantrum. I had a really big one on Friday and told C how much I dislike him right now since he is the one who gets to stay home with Bear. I also told him if we end up staying in Canada and if I get a tenure-track job at CU we may well have a third child so I take a year off and stay home with one child. I told you I was having a temper tantrum.

Oh dear... you're allowed a temper tantrum and, if my opinion counts for anything (which it doesn't) to have a third child, because that's what I wanted but WON'T get because I've already spent ALL my time (and I'm still spending) on the two boys I had. It's time to start thinking of working (funny that I only want to go back to work after K gets a TT job when we need the money NOW!). (long, complicated story on why I'm home with the boys).
Anyway... I'm sorry you've been felling so "tantrumy" lately!
Thanks, Lilian. I've kept up with your blog and understand why you're home with the boys. I'm working for monetary reasons right now, and I would love to be able to take advantage of the Canadian family leave system to be home with Bear. But he is home with one of us, and I get more time with him than lots of mothers get with their infants.
