Bear is 14 weeks old today but according to my blog he is only 12 because I never had the time to post the 13 week update nor did I have time to post pictures onto the 12 week update from two weeks ago.
I had lots of blog posts lined up for the past few days inducing ones about our Easter and Spring Break which were like almost 2 weeks ago that I have yet to post!
And oh dear God you should see my house! The dining room table is covered in crayons, the kitchen counters are covered in molds, the living room has baby stuff scattered everywhere. There are piles of clean laundry stacked in chairs and laundry baskets still overflowing with dirty laundry. The bathroom is a mess and needs to be scrubbed. The kitchen floor is rainbow with crayon flakes and the stove is splotched with melted wax. Just about the only thing that is clean is the spare bathroom!
On top of that we ran out of paper towels last night and my dog keeps peeing on the carpet for reasons unknown and now we have to use our cloth towels to clean it up because we can not afford to buy paper towels. And we only have 4 cloth towels at that. I love Charley but he really needs to knock it off! We can not afford for him to be peeing everywhere. And we just got our carpet steamed about a week ago by the complex who only do it once a year!
I get up at 5 AM and go to work, to come home to a mess but can not clean it because I have to cook dinner for my starving boyfriend and then make crayons so we can launch our Etsy shop that should have launched on March 31st (11 days ago)! I am so completely overwhelmed. And all the stress has caused me to gain 5.5 lbs! Yea you heard it I am now 128! >:[ I am so very angry about this! I have been eating less and yet I am still gaining weight. At this rate my fat pants are not going to fit anymore!
And yes Anthony does help me cook and clean and make crayons but Bear is not a very tolerable baby. He always wants to be held or needs something so one of us has to take care of him while the other does something else or else he will be screaming his head off. This is also the reason Anthony can not get anything done while I am at work, because watching Bear is a 24/7 thing there is maybe 30 minutes out of the whole day that you can get things done in.
Ok rant over!
Now for some good stuff! I made the banner/reserved listing/avatar for our Etsy shop yesterday! I made these in Photoshop all by myself and I am so very proud! Even though they are like super simple and just about anyone with 2 brain cells could have made them lol.
The banner :]
The avatar
And the reserved listing image
I was originally going to put our train shaped crayons that we made around the words but than I got to thinking that may look odd with the typed text so I went with this cute little train instead. :] At this point I have no earthly clue when our shop will launch but I am really hoping it is soon. We still have to finish making crayons, start taking pictures, and make the listings, so that is going to take some time, but we do have I believe at least 1/3 of the crayons made at this point. Maybe in 2 weeks-ish? Who knows.
Hope everyone has a great (stress free) Thursday!
