What am I to do?

I had a doctor's appointment yesturday and all I can say is poor Jeff! If you know Lexi you know she is in love with her daddy, she wants to marry him! Really, if you ask her she will tell you the same. Every morning she gets up and Jeff is not here she ask "where is my daddy?" The answer never changes I reply,"he is at work." She must keep tabs on him at all times. Jeff comes home and she runs around the house hysterically screaming his name, I kid you not, the girl is truley in love! Anna Kate on the other hand, not so in love. She cries the whole time she is with him. No matter what he does she will not stop crying. She really is a wonderful baby as long as I am around, but if I leave her side it's over. Never fails I always get the dreaded call, you need to come home she won't stop crying, as I hear her screaming bloody murder in the background. I feel so bad for Jeff, but what am I to do?

MeMe dropped Lexi off at preschool yesturday so when I go to pick up Lexi from prechool and she comes to the door and looks at me as if I have five eyeballs and replies, "where's my MeMe?" As she just stands there like I am a stranger. She let me know she didn't want to go with me and for me to call her MeMe to come get her. For those of you that have not experienced the bond between your child and her grandparents, good luck! You will always be the least favorite when they are around. What am I to do when my child acts like she's never seen me before? Now, I can totally relate to the hubs and his feelings about being unliked by his own child.

  1. You can thank nursing for the wonderful bond you and AK share. Stokes is the same way and I get those very same phone calls. Its like he can smell me when I leave the house. I have a lap baby but its what I wanted. I can't get anything done but at the same time, it'll be there forever- my baby won't be a baby forever. Just know you aren't alone! Oh, and as for Tanner- total Daddy's boy. He wants his dad ALL the time. Once again, you aren't alone!
