I mentioned this before but it’s a big part of the reason I stoppped posting here and it’s still happening…
I have someone on here who has been harassing me for almost two years. It started with getting a creepy message regarding Kennedy. I chose not to share it because I didn’t want to feed the troll. Then a few days later that blog had posted a picture of Kennedy they had saved from my profile- not a reblog, they had saved my picture and reposted it, a picture of her jumping on her bed in a diaper. After that I went on a blocking spree with blogs they interacted with and blogs those blogs interacted with, including someone it appeared they were also harassing but after I noticed quite a few of similar uncommon spelling mistakes in their writings I realized that both blogs were the same person posting. One posing as a victim of their own faked harassment. I don’t know why, but this person continues to make blogs and following me, all under the same catfish persona.
No matter what I’ve done, this person keeps popping up in my notifications. A new blog, a new follow, and new likes. I even changed my name (slightly) in hopes they wouldn’t be able to search me… but just today I found another blog that followed me recently and liked my recent posts.
I’ve gone through and deleted every photo of my kids on here. And will no longer be posting photos. I would probably delete my blog if it wasn’t for so many posts I made about Liam during that pregnancy. Be safe out there guys.

Update
Posting about Kennedy starting school made me realize I missed posting here.
So update...
Kennedy, she's an awesome kid. She's funny and so damn smart. Her vocabulary is insane and often she says things and I have to makes sure that's what she actually said because it doesnt seem like it would come out of a 4 year old. She so inquisitive. I know its common at her age to never shut the fuck up, but she doesn't just ask questions for the sake of speaking. She wants to know so much about the world around her. Like I said in my previous post she started pre school. Its a 3 day a week program and she doesnt go all day, its mainly for social interaction. I knew when I became a parent that would be a difficult aspect for me to navigate, being someone who has such bad social anxiety that I find it difficult to leave the house... but I didn't know how much self judgement and hatred would be uncovered by this. So I am glad to see her go off and make friend and socialize with kids her age, because she wants to so desperately, and its been severely lacking and I sort of hate myself more and more each day over my inability to just go out and interact with people. (Like seriously what is wrong with me that I feel anxious and awkward around children).
Jefferson, is also an awesome kid. He's also... a lot. He started walking at 8 months and shortly after that learned how much he liked to jump and climb, and he never, ever stops. He keeps me on my toes for sure. He is also 2 months away from being two years old and is completely non verbal. Not one word. He babbles, he says "ma ma" but its never at me. He's never assigned a sound to a word. He scored in the "medium risk" category at his 15 month assessment for autism and will be reevaluated in January for his two year appointment. In the mean time we have an appointment with audiology to test his hearing and then after that speech therapy evaluation. He also has... idk sensory issues. He's always had a sensitive gag reflex, and now that results in him throwing up (not spitting up, straight up vomit) at least once a week. If he cries too hard he'll start gagging and throw up. If he put too much food in his mouth, gagging and throwing up. If we give him food he isn't familiar with and decides he doesnt trust it, gag and throw up (Sometimes without even tasting it). Its... exhausting. We've been told that some kids are like that and he is physically very health and getting all the nutrition he needs so we shouldn't worry. But the cleaning vomit up gets tiresome. However.... he may not very giving will his smiles, but when he trusts you enough to let you in he's the most affectionate and happy kid. His smile and laugh are everything. He's also really smart. He understands how things works, he just doesn't know how to tell us. if he's thirsty he will put his cup on the fridge where the water dispenser is. When he doesn't want to watch something on TV, he'll grab the remote and put it in our hands. Things will get better. At least he's mostly sleeping through the night.
Bill is doing good. Idk he's just Bill. I wish he has more of a social life here. He doesn't seemed super bothered by it though. Maybe because he interacts with people at work. I just want him to be happy.
As for me, I don't think I'm doing great. I feel incredibly lonely. Being a parent is so isolating, especially in a pandemic. And on top of that I am completely incapable of making friends. I have been in Washington for almost 4 years and I haven't made one friend. Literally not one. And the thought of having to talk to people makes my chest feel tight so... cool guess I'll just be lonely. I have started talking to a therapist, but its hard because I hate telehealth but there isn't really another option for us. (I know its seems weird that someone with anxiety like me would love to not have to talk face to face but I also have a lot of anxiety about not being able to hear them or them not being able to hear me or having problems with my internet and the picture wont load. Guys idk what to say I'm fucking insane) Even if they did have in person sessions, when tf am I supposed to go? I have two kids, one who is difficult and no one to really watch them on a consistent basis for something like therapy. So telehealth is the only option while Bill works from home and tries to watch the kids. But it's really difficult to focus when I can hear Jefferson crying upstairs or when I'm all done and I feel emotionally rung out because I have been crying for 45 minutes non stop, I have to be immediately back into mom mode because Bill has to get back to work. It's a mess. I'm a mess. I'm constantly overstimulated. And I'm so tired.

It’s been a while.
Hi guys. I don’t even know who’s on here anymore.
What’s going on with us... not much tbh. Still social distancing at home. Both my parents are fully vaccinated so that’s a huge weight off my shoulders.
Jefferson is massive and strong. He is a climber and seems to have no fear. His language hasn’t quite started yet, still a lot of babbling. Still waking up in the middle of the night and I’m forever tired.
Kennedy is doing really great. She so damn smart and never stops talking. We’ve reached the “why” phase and she’s wants to know EVERYTHING. She’s going to be 4 next month and idk how tf that happened. Time goes by so fast.
Bill is doing great. He’s been working from home a lot which is nice to have him home. We recently started working out better schedules where I can take more time to work on dice. It was just me doing work after the kids were in bed but I was dying from exhaustion.
I fairly certain I’ve been struggling with either ppd or ppa for quite sometime. I put off getting help because i didn’t want to go into an office and the thought of telehealth makes me have a panic attack. Then I run into the issue that making phones calls of doctors appointments is a trigger for me... how tf do you get help when the thing you need with for is preventing you from getting help. I did eventually make the call (and then cried afterwards) and the referee me to a company that was supposed to contact me and help my find someone in my area... of course on the back of my referral it says to call them in I don’t hear from them in 5 days (it’s been like two weeks). Great, more phone calls 😑.
I will do it this week. Tomorrow even. I need to talk to someone. I’m not my best self right now.
I miss writing here. Maybe I will come back more often.

2 years
It’s been a while, and I am contemplating deleting my tumblr, but I couldn’t let today go by without acknowledging Liam’s 2nd heavenly birthday.
I know so many of you were right there crying along side me 2 years ago. And I will forever be grateful for that.
Liam Ruben Lechuga-Huber. You will always be missed my sweet boy.

**NOT A PREGNANCY ANNOUNCEMENT**
This was two years ago. How was this two years ago. My baby boy Liam who didn’t get to come home. The only parts of him the exist are in the few photos we got. I was so unhappy being pregnant. Liam was my lightning baby. Lightning rarely strikes twice and he was an unexpected miracle. But I was sick and exhausted and scared and I didn’t appreciate it while I could. I took hearing his heatbeat for granted and I didn’t realize it until we couldn’t hear it anymore. I have so much regret over that time. I couldn’t have known, and obviously being happy isn’t something you can control, but I was so terrified about loving another child enough. I worried that I didn’t have room in my heart. I wasn’t ready to share myself with any child besides Kennedy. And in the end I was so wrong. There was more than enough of me for both my children. When I held him I was bursting with love. My heart had so much room for him and I’m thankful for that, because that’s where he lives now.
6 weeks
Since I’m not an establish patient anywhere the doctor’s office I called couldn’t get me in until October 8th, and my insurance is changing October 1st and I won’t be able to see them. So now I have to wait until October to even make an appointment. Which is ok, but I couldn’t go that long not knowing hard far along I was. So we paid for an ultrasound at an outside location. The tech measured the gestational sac and crown to rump length and they both estimated me at 6 weeks. This could very well change, but he said it’s a good indication since both measurements were giving the same date.
So that gives me a approximate due date of May 8, 2019. Bill’s dying for them to be born on the 4th and have a Star Wars baby. And as I am typing this out I feel a little tickle of excitement, which has been lacking so far.
We got to hear the heartbeat, which was 117. Kennedy’s was 127 at the first ultrasound so I don’t think that’s an indication of the sex yet. Here is some pictures of the little tiny squish.

One of my biggest annoyance as a mom is my husbands instistance that he has to go to the bathroom alone. He’ll go as far as to wake me up to watch the kids because he needs to go...
Take👏🏼them👏🏼with👏🏼you👏🏼
Do you know how often these kids accompany me to the bathroom. Every. Time. Even when he is home and able to keep an eye on them they follow me in there. Yet he gets to luxuriously poop in peace.

@raisingmybestfriends
Kennedy’s room was Star Wars themed. She had a lot more space to fill so more artwork.
Jefferson is decorated with maps from California. The ceiling and his sign was where most of the effort went. Idk why I can’t find any pictures of the full room done.

Look for someone with some 3D modeling experience to possibly design something for me. I have a printer, but designing is not my forte.
Willing to trade some models for: handmade dice, printed miniatures, or even straight up cash as payment.

I want to take a minute to reach out to those who are makeup enthusiast such as myself.
I am sure you have all seen the myriad of social media post and public statements from almost every brand and company declaring their support for the black community and black lives matters. While this is great, it also allows companies to piggy back off a current trending hashtag and does little to actually support the black community. As many of you may or may not know, the beauty community can often be a toxic environment for Black people. Its just been recently that some brands started actually creating foundations and concealers that had more than 2 “dark” shades. Black women and men are serverly under represented in the beauty community. It’s time for that to change!
To combat performative allyship, Sharon Chuter (founder of Uoma Beauty) has started a campaign for #PullUpOrShutUp. Calling for companies within the beauty industry to publicly release statements with the number of black employees they have leadership roles at corporate level.
Several brands have replied, several have not. The numbers, well aren’t surprising. But this is a chance for those companies to take steps in the right direction. And many of those who are lacking have already pledge to change this. This isn’t a witch hunt, it’s a call for transparency so companies can be held accountable to their claims of “solidarity”
If you will be buying makeup, skin care products, or any other beauty related item in the near future, consider checking out this IG for responses from various brands. If you support the black community, stand with them and refuse to patronize any company that does not respond.
Also support black owned business!!!

I’m going to reblog this because I have a lot of mutuals who have the same experience and maybe have something to add.
I am so sorry for your friend. And for you. While the grief is way different and obviously less than what she’s going through, it’s incredibly difficult to see someone you love experience this.
My friend’s purchased a set of trees to be planted in Liam’s name through the Arbor Day foundation. It was a really beautiful and touching gift. Gift cards for food places are always helpful. We sent straight cash to Bill’s brother through Zelle when their daughter passed away so they could order food or order groceries whatever they needed to free their time up so they had the space to cope and grieve without other stresses.
And I hope this doesn’t come off as harsh, but the best thing right now is give her space from your newborn. By no means am I saying your friend doesn’t love you or Tessa, but I can tell you it might be incredibly difficult for your friend to be around her (impossible due to covid anyways), see pictures, or even talk about Tessa. It’s just a reminder of what shes lot. Gently remind her that you are there for her and keep checking in on her and follow her cues. What a terrible thing to happen.
My best friend lost her baby. She was due in a couple weeks. I’m heartbroken for her. 😭😭
Does anyone have any advice on what I could do or get for her? I can’t even physically be there for her because of covid.

Anxiety is a hell of a drug.
So, I’m agoraphobic. I cant talk to people I don’t know, have physical difficulty making calls, I can’t even manage to get my haircut regularily because I’m afraid to make an appointment, I have no real life friends beyond the ones I made in high school, public places are always difficult but if I’ll have to socialize or be vulnerable it’s a straight up no go, I won’t go to a public event if I have to sit next to a stranger. I just generally have difficulty leaving the house. So tbh, this lock down hasn’t changed too much for me. Except I used to at least go to the store (wearing headphones so people will leave me alone) or better yet Bill would take Kennedy to the store, ugh I miss that so much.
Anyways, yesterday I had an, episode? Idk what to call it but my neighbors were doing this social distancing gathering where everyone was sitting outside on the curbs with enough distance away from each other. Bill was outside working on the yard and one of our neighbors invited us. So 5pm rolled around and Bill asked me if I wanted to go out, and I did. I really did and I want to socialize and get to know these people and possibly make friends, but I went out there and just sort of awkwardly stood in the driveway while bill was working and Kennedy ran around. And like, 5 minutes later went back inside and cried. I sobbed. I just, don’t know how to socialize, even if I want to. It’s like asking an arachnaphobid to let a spider crawl on them. It’s awful and I hate myself.
I reached out to my sisters and both of them calmed me down. One said she was proud of me for even trying, the other validated my feelings and reminding me that right now my anxiety and agorphobia might feel worse with this mandated local down sort of, feeding my already established fears.
I just, hate being like this. I hate my broken brain for making me feel like this. I have so much self loathing today and just replayed what happened over and over in my head. It’s only worse now because I’m sure my neighbors think I’m such a fucking weirdo, or a snob. And all that does is makes me want to cry thinking about ever having to face them.

Guys. GUYS!
Kennedy has peed on the potty for over 3 days now. We’ve been at it for 4. The first day was a lot of peeing in her underwear. And Jesus this kid can hold her pee. Because she was anxious to release on the toilet day 2 and 3 she only peed twice the entire day. (And yes I’m am pushing liquids). But she was showing indications that she had to go, so I was having to basically sit in the bathroom or in the hallway for really long stretches, which is less than ideal when also caring for an infant. Yesterday I was so fucking miserable I was texting my friend updates all day because I needed the emotional support. My husband is a man of action, so when I go to him with complaints or frustration he want to fix it. I just needed someone to cheer me on and tell me how amazing I am doing.
Today was a massive break through. She went 4 times throughout the day AND two of those times she initiated the trip to the bathroom and telling us she had to go. This is amazing and no lie, I almost cried. I’m so so proud of her. Probably the most proud I have ever been, maybe because she understands how proud I am. The joy on her face when we are praising her and making a big deal is seriously priceless. The first time she actually went, I was hugging her and telling her how proud I was of her and she said “mommy. I love you. I am proud of me” and... lord my heart.
Pooping is still a struggle, no pooping on the toilet yet. She’s still really anxious and nervous about it. But I think she will get there soon. She so smart, I knew if she just had a few times that she went it would click.

Every year I find myself binge watching America’s Next Top Model. Some of those older seasons have no held up well 😬.
Degrassi TNG was my jam in high school. I remember when my sister torrented a copy of the abortion episode that they didn’t air in the US and it was scandalous.
New topic: admit a guilty pleasure. Mine is watching old MTV 16 & pregnant episodes. Totally lame but 🤷♀️ what is everyone’s guilty pleasures?
Jersey shore and famous Amos cookies & milk. Simultaneously of course lol I’m really a sucker for shitty MTV shows ⚡️
