The Mental State of NYSoMom

Before Chunks, I was the friend that would tell my mom-friends to lay off their kids, not to latch on too tight, give them space, let them push their limits, blah, blah, blah. They all said the same thing "Wait 'til you have your little one!" I would just laugh at them and brush this off and make mental notes of what I would NEVER do when I became a mom.
Well...here I am 10 months later and I'm a TOTAL clown. Motherhood has made me crazy!! lol My pregnancy wasn't easy, emotionally, because of family drama and other stresses but I was determined to remain calm because I couldn't have my baby stressing before he even got a chance to see the world. I ate properly, I read all the books and blogs, I studied my Anatomy and Physiology text books more than when I was in undergrad, and prepared for my little one but NOTHING prepared me for some of the psycho things I've done to Chunks so far.

When he was about 4 mo old I put him in his first polo and jeans and burst into RIDICULOUS tears!! I can't believe I'm even telling you guys this!!! I took this picture and immediately changed him into a one piece romper, sad I know but yea I did it.

When he 1st rolled over I actually wished for the passed 20 minutes before he became a "big boy" ::LORD:: 

He was born with head full of pretty curly hair and since then the cute curls have turned into a massive bush!! Serious Jesus hair lol. Hubby so badly wants to give him a haircut like two months ago. I've been adamant about not laying a finger on his hair until his 1st Birthday. Well I'm planning his 1st birthday party now and we're getting closer and closer to the haircut day and I'm already bugging. I've seen other kids after their 1st haircut and the before Jonesie would say how cute they were but in actuality they change. They become big little people!! He was just a little cutie bug in my arms unable to roll, sit up, or anything and now he's starting to walk AND have a big boy haircut??? I can't take it!! (cue the drama) 

Motherhood has changed me in many ways but seriously I hope this psycho-mom stage passes fast or he's not going to have a date to him prom! I'm trying to enjoy him in this not quite baby not quite big boy stage but honestly I long for those 1 days again, while scary they were the happiest I've ever been. For now I'm in my Tori Spelling/Amy Atlas (yea right) mode getting ready for his 1st Birthday Celebration I can't wait to share all the details with you guys.

Welcome Me Back to the Cyber World!

In just 3 weeks I was the one the Cyber gods decided to have fun with. First my 3rd Blackberry decided it didn't want to turn on and stay on but it wanted to do it a whole month before my contract was up with Verizon which would allow me a new (read:better) phone for free. Thankfully they worked with me and since I was a long standing member they nicely allowed me to move up my upgrade date!! GREAT! Except the phone that I want, will not be shipped out until the END OF NEXT MONTH!!! Talk about screwed.

Chunks has an obsession with remotes and so he decided to use the remote to his father's PlayStation as a chew toy one morning and some how between him getting it and me seeing him, he was able to dribble enough into the controller to cause it also to die.

My 6 year old Dell-we've been through a lot; undergrad, applying to grad, surfing the web, finding my blogging passion, IM, facebook, all of that, somehow got the blue screen of death one morning out of the clear BLUE! We rebooted, wiped it clean, uninstalled, reinstalled, and upgraded and within 3 weeks we just had to say goodbye thanks to the good ol' Trojan horse virus! Bitter sweet because I knew she was on her last leg, I just wished I could've put her down a little nicer than that!
Well I decided that I will turn everything around, with me going back to school and wanting to blog a lot more than I've been doing, allow me to introduce my new best friend Mac!

So NewYorkStateofMom will be able to fill you all in on the adventures of us settling back into my hometown, trust me we've had some adventures. Stick with me while I get it all together. Mac and I are getting to know each other, and so far so good!
