just another day in "motherhood"...

Anyway, so yesterday Lila was taking a bath while I folded the laundry and watched her at the same time. She was having fun, as usual... bath time is her favorite time of the day. All of a sudden, she just stopped all the "talking, singing and water-splashing" and just sat there looking at the water. As soon as I stood up I saw, well, poop...in the water. And instantly, she started to wail! Seriously, she looked embarrassed! She's not giving us ANY signs of being ready to be potty-trained so I even doubted that she knew what she had done, but dad also saw what I saw and he said the same thing to me: "she looks embarrassed, as if she knows she did something she wasn't supposed to." Keep in mind we didn't yell, gasped or anything, so I know we didn't scare her. Poor thing... Luckily, I'm not having any morning sickness or anything (it's too soon but I hope it continues...), because cleaning that up was not easy on a "normal stomach"... I can't imagine having to do that while nauseous!
Now, onto not-so-disgusting things.... so lately, Lila's been giving me a hard time. People say she already feels there's a new baby coming. I found that hard to believe at first, but now it seems like the only logical explanation as to why she's so clingy and whiny lately. Her dad was always the one she would "prefer". I've also heard that is common with most girls. But now it's ALL me and ONLY me. Finally! :) But I am quite tired though, because she wants to be held all day, all the time and I have to do things around the house either holding her, or listening to her complain while trying to squeeze in between my legs. Not fun, but I feel so bad for her... soon, I won't be able to devote all my attention to her and that makes me feel guilty. I hope that doesn't sound as awful as it feels! I guess it's normal to feel like that right now. I'm sure Lila will be a great big sister! She's so sweet and caring... I'm sure it'll be easier than I think! Well, at least I hope! :)
