Ups:
L slept 10 to 5 last night!
We’ve had beautiful fall weather the past few days and I’m loving it. Summer is usually my favorite, but I’m extra excited for fall this year.
Downs:
We just spent $300+ on plants/shrubs. Sort of an up because I know it will all look nice after we plant, but that stuff is so expensive.
I just ordered 4 pairs of jeans from Old Navy yesterday... and now today they’re 50% off. They have their 40% off event going until Monday so I didn’t think they’d do any other sales until after that. Nothing exciting happening here. H is busy most of the day with flag football and showings for our rental. Then we’ll plant the new shrubs tomorrow.

Downs: our hot water heater still isn't fixed. We have warm water part of the day but never hot. Have to boil water on the stove to give DS a bath. I think we will just go to Mil's for bath/shower tonight.
My left nipple hurts so bad. DS has teeth both top and bottom now and he must have chomped on it real good. But I don't remember it happening??!!? I just woke up one morning with intense pain and cry every time I nurse him on that side. It's getting better now a day or two later but still hurts.
Ups: I have all the coffee and pumpkin pie I could want today.😁
So many little things. Even though the list of things I'd like to get done but am not is a mile long I feel like life is good. I have the sweetest baby, I'm working on a habit of running daily for my health(mostly mental), I found my smart watch after losing it at a fire department water drill, my latest game plan of pre-planning 3 meals to cook each week is working out fantastic. There are definitely things I need to work on, like consistent bedtime and wake up time, and more priority to prayer and spiritual meditation, but I feel like I'm adulting well I at least a few areas.
Weekend: DH is hiking "the great range traverse"(or something) with his brothers and nephews today so baby and I are sleeping in and living our best life. Well except for the projectile puke in the bed. Good thing I bought a waterproof mattress cover for when my water broke.

Downs: My throat and ear are bothering. Thankfully Tylenol and Ibuprofen are helping so I am coping fine.
Due to L having HFM I am a little behind at work and need to spend some time this weekend getting caught. I hate when I have to do work at home. Work is for work time.
Ups We are pretty settled into our new house. At least on the main 2 floors. The basement is still chaos as we haven’t touch unpacked any of those boxes yet.
We met some of our neighbors on Sunday. I work with two of the ones I met, and one of the families go to the same daycare as us. Our son’s are in the same room so it wasn’t that difficult for DS1 to make his first neighborhood friend.
Weekend: we did a few things around the house this morning. We are now helping a friend move a goat pen. Tomorrow is church and maybe a car show. I am kind of sick of car shows but I guess this is the boy Mom life.

Ups: pizza
I got my hair done yesterday and I'm feeling it. I got like 10 inches hacked off.
Downs: ds has had some big feelings today and is taking it out in the baby. It has been really hard to have my eyes on him all the time and also make sure he's getting enough 1:1 time to keep the jealousy at bay.
My parents have had a rough couple months and we've helping fill some gaps so money is tight. Mat leave is rough to begin with but now we're like just scraping by.

Ups: - we went had a great day including a lunch play date with my and dd’s BFFs. - ALL THE FALL THINGS. I’m about to buy a bunch of mums and pumpkins tomorrow and CANNOT WAIT.
Downs - I’m gaining weight and can’t figurneout weigh. I’m working out more than I have since DD2 was born and eating decently. It sucks and TBH I feel horrible. I just don’t feel attractivein the slightest.
- I’m exhausted. I’m not sure if it’s the mental energy the political climate is taking, the two girls not sleeping great, or if I need to cut back the caffeine but damn I would pay big money to sleep in just one day.

Ups: got my hair done too, I feel a million times better about myself.
The toddler is being a superstar of late, who knows if it will last but I’ll take it.
Downs: packing to move when you don’t have a house to move to is hard and stressful.
We need a house ASAP universe 🤞🏻🤞🏻
