Sometimes, it gets pretty lonely living in an entirely different state than my family. Though I didn't really have a really close relationship with any of my family members, the distance seems to create even bigger of a gap. I bet it'd be a little less lonely if I had friends, but I don't. I try not to get sad about this, but sometimes I do let my emotions get the best of me. I am eight months pregnant, can you blame me? I am very grateful to have Omar and to be carrying his child, and also I appreciate his family. Even though we don't really communicate, I still enjoy being able to spend time with them. I really hope I can be confidant enough in my Spanish one to actually talk to them. I'm afraid that I'm going to try turning my daughter into my best friend. Don't get me wrong, I do not see anything wrong with having a close relationship with your child, but I do believe a parent should not make their children their only friends. I know this from personal experience. Not only is it wrong to do to the child, but it also hurts the parent when the child starts trying to break free.
Now that we got that out of the way, I set the crib up today! I haven't washed any of the blankets yet, but I was getting tired of looking at an empty crib and I wanted to see how the bed set looked. It looks really nice, it is very pink and very girly. The only problem is my crib is a little bigger than normal cribs so the bumper doesn't exactly attach how it should. Fortunately, I am able to put it up without causing danger for my baby. I might get some ribbon and extend the ties on the bumper so it looks a little nicer.
