My baby boy is 5 months old already!

Hi out there! My name is Tiffany and I am 19 years old and I have a 5 month old son named Tobias. I am a single parent living with my 23 year old sister. In this blog I am going to just write about everything I am going through, things that annoy me and things that I love.

Right now it is Sunday 30th of January 12:30pm. Tobias is asleep and has been for the last 2 and a half hours. I am sitting on the couch in the lounge room bored out of my brain. I was meant to work today (I work casually at McDonalds in the McCafe.) but I had to call up sick because I have a cold. That really sucks because I only do one shift a week anyway and its my one chance to have some time to myself where I dont have to worry about Tobias for a few hours.

My days usually run something like this:

6am - Tobias wakes for a feed
6:30am - Tobias goes back to sleep so I have a shower, get ready for the day and do last nights dishes. Then I'll tidy up a bit and watch some TV and check facebook until Tobias wakes up again.
9am - Tobias wakes up for the day. I feed him, bath him and play with him until he is ready for his nap at about 11am.
11am - Tobias goes to bed and I watch TV / check facebook until he wakes up again. then its feed, play, sleep. watch tv. he wakes up, feed, play, sleep. watch TV... etc etc etc etc etc...

It continues on until about 10pm when he goes down for the night. My life is so incredibly boring. I dont have my drivers license or a car so if i want to go out it usually takes up the whole day, trying to make sure Tobias gets his sleep when he needs it while we are out. I feel like all I do is clean the house, wash the dishes, do the grocery shopping and look after Toby. The same thing day after day drives me insane!! I'd love to go out more shopping and such but its so difficult with him because he hates being in the pram.

Sorry, it seems like all I am doing is complaining. I'm just trying to give you a mental picture of how bored I am all the time. I thought if I start a blog it might give me something to do while he is asleep. And hopefully connect me with people that are sort of feeling the same or get what I am going through. My other 1 post blog sort of describes how I got into this situation.

Anyways, I hope you stayed tuned, I promise things will get more interesting than this :)

See you tomorrow! xoxo (or perhaps later on this arvo) :P
