Growing up too fast

I'm trying so hard to stay positive. It's hard at times. Especially when I REALLY want Justin home to help me. I've had some good days, and I've had some really bad days. Some days I just cry off and on all day. Last week, I finally came to the realization that I can't do this on my own and I wanted to go to the doctor. Well, it wasn't that simple. I tried to get an appointment at my old OB, but they wouldn't/couldn't see me anymore because I only have tricare insurance. Then, I tried to go to another OB in Goldsboro but they didn't deal with PPD patients. I just got so frustrated. I finally just quit trying and tried to enjoy being home. We flew back to CT on Sunday. Corbin was such a good boy. He nursed, then slept the entire flight. I missed Justin so bad when we were in NC, but I knew if I was in CT, he would be working all day, everyday, anyway. He actually got home at 8:30 pm last night. It was so good to actually sit down and eat supper with him and have a conversation. We start marriage counseling tomorrow night. I honestly don't think we need counseling, but it seemed to be the only way for him to get a few hours off work.
I went to my first MOPS group meeting on Tuesday and I had a great time. I met a lady named Andrea and her baby, Joshua. He is 2 weeks older than Corbin. I am going to meet her next Tuesday for frozen yogurt. I'm excited about that. I feel so much better when I leave the apartment and go do something, but then I'm so exhausted when we get back. It's so much work getting us both ready to leave the apartment, but I know I need to in order to stay happy. I'm trying to find free things to do around town since we don't have any money.

Corbin is growing up so fast! He rolled over from his back to his belly on Saturday, September 8, 2012. I was so excited! My mama was there too and watched him do it. He laughed for the first time on Sunday, September 9, 2012. Justin was playing with him and he LAUGHED! Not a coo, not a giggle, a REAL laugh! We both looked at each other and got so excited! He also started copying us this week. Last Saturday, my grandma Joyce was blowing raspberries with him and he thought it was so funny. Then, on Sunday, Justin was doing it with him and he tried to copy him. Now he does it all day! It's so cute!!!
We went to Six Flags and the Baltimore Zoo Labor Day weekend. We had so much fun! I loved having my whole family together.


Now.... Get ready for a photo bomb!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We've had a lot going on the past 3 weeks :)


Today, I laid Corbin down on his play mat with his feet touching the piano. I went to the kitchen, came back a few minutes later, and he had flipped all around!
