Dear Diary,
Being on maternity leave the second time around isn't so bad to be honest. The first time was mostly difficult because Levi was constantly gone on business trips. Miserable, not difficult. Even if we called each other everyday while he was gone it didn't help when it came to the distance. I was twenty-three when I got pregnant with Cyril, but I met Levi back when I was a freshman at our university. He was a junior at the time and offered to tutor me in French. Heh.. The rest is embarrassing history after that.
Note to self:
write about the honeymoon later.
Anyway, this morning Levi was a little late to work because Isabel decided to spew formula on his shoulder. He seemed mildly surprised, quietly handed her over to me and quickly went upstairs to change his shirt. Once he came back I asked if he was okay and he answered: "I just have to get used to that again." Which I understand because it's been five years and a few months since Cyril was a baby. I'm honestly readjusting to waking up in the middle of the night, but Levi joins me and we sometimes we reminisce about the past since we are both wide awake by then. If I called Levi a cuddlebug to his face he would probably stare at me, so I'll just write it here.
Levi is a cuddlebug~
1:00PM
Got a call from the school. Cyril tried putting a crayon up his nose again.
2:30PM
I'm sure everyone has that one friend. The one who you've known since you were kids and is also the biggest pervert you've ever known. Well, Eren is that friend for me. The friend who keeps reminding me that I'm awkward even at age twenty-eight.
For example, Eren had this elaborate plan of getting me and Levi to meet each other on the football field. He would be standing in the announcer box and would play some cheesy music to set the mood. This was back while we were in college. He would also keep bugging me to tell Levi that I thought he was 'hot', and even now I still get a little flustered just thinking back to that. Am I really that awkward?
He also kept telling me stories about how he and Jean ended up together, but that would mostly result in the two of them bickering about how they have different memories of how it happened. I should probably go visit them soon since their son is in the same class as Cyril. Maybe I should bring some cookies. Then again cupcakes taste better, so I will just make some of those to take over.
Note to self:
Find a day to visit Eren and Jean.
4:00PM
My little man keeps telling me that he wants to be a space pirate for Halloween this year. Originally, Cyril wanted to just be a pirate. Then he learned about astronauts and wanted to be that. Now a space pirate. Levi and I are just thankful he didn't go with 'space cowboy'. That could have meant anything, but he only chuckled before giving me a kiss on the cheek and told me not to worry about it. Levi's currently taking a nap with Isabel on the couch. I won't show him the picture I took of them, but it's really cute.
6:32PM
Trying to write this as best I can with one hand. Isabel fell asleep, but on me this time. Levi volunteered to make dinner, but his version of "making dinner" consists of ordering out 99% of the time. Last time was pizza, so this time might be- hold on a minute.
6:40PM
I honestly know what to expect when changing a diaper. But this time it was a mess.
10:00PM
Too tired to write more.. So I will just explain things in the morning.
Nighty night~!
