I'm awake before my alarm on a Saturday because Colin woke up about 10 minutes ago to use the potty. And he was dry! I'm so excited for him that he had a positive first night.
Now I need to bundle up for running group because it's COLD and I haven't run outside since last Saturday. This is going to be brutal.

Morning! I’m parked on the couch with N... he has thrown up 3x since 4:30 this morning. 😞 We were supposed to have a play date with his best bud from daycare today but that’s definitely going to be cancelled. And it’s weird because he’s perfectly fine in between, no fever or anything then he starts to toss and turn and I know it’s coming.

We drove to Oregon last night. We're going to Storybook Land today which is a Christmas tradition of my home town. It's a walk through display that takes up an entire huge building at the fairgrounds of tons of scenes from nursery rhymes and popular kid's shows. There's also a giant moving teddy bear carnival and large trains towns set up with Santa at the end. I'm like a child and love it just as much as the girls.

Morning! C and I have been up for 1.5 hours. I need to jump in the shower soon before chaos starts up. We are going to a friend's house for a holiday brunch and then have my nieces for the afternoon/early evening.

inthekitty I haven’t talked to my sister yet. As soon as I do I’ll give y’all an update. I’m scared if I text it might wake them up, if they’re sleeping. Also, I’m jealous of your trip. I hope everyone has a blast!

Last night we went to the local catholic shrine that does a drive through light display. Well E remembered that last year we came and watched a puppet show at the visitors center so we had to get out and look for the puppet show. Unfortunately they only do it certain nights and it wasn't last night. I was just shocked he remembered.

Does anyone know of a decent scotch that's under $50? yummeecookee maybe? Balvenie 12 year is great but is just over 50, about $55. If you can find Johnny walker double black, it’s usually just under 50, like $49.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Morning!
B has a classmate’s birthday party today so I’m taking him to that at 11.
Otherwise I’m planning a trip to Dillard’s to get some cords for my H. I ordered B something extra that caught my eye on Amazon last night so now I think I need one last gift for C, haven’t decided if it’ll be clothing or a toy.

E has asked to color 2x today and is actually coloring in specific areas of the picture rather than just a single line on the paper. This is a small big transition for my little guy. He still uses both hands equally and has trouble remembering to hold the paper with the other hand.

He still uses both hands equally and has trouble remembering to hold the paper with the other hand. Our preschool calls that their "helper hand." Once I realize that was the terminology they were using I was able to incorporate it at home. It was a good reminder for Josie, especially when she's cutting.

Once I realize that was the terminology they were using I was able to incorporate it at home. It was a good reminder for Josie, especially when she's cutting. Yeah I've read that term. I recently spiraled on the ambidextrous thing. If course the first Google results were that it is a detriment and they have fine motor issues and work needs to be done immediately to establish a dominant hand. I try to see if he is stronger with 1 hand out the other but he switches every week. UO/confession I won't care if his handwriting isn't neat as long as it is legible and he is accomplishing the task. It's just not a battle I want to fight.

Hi, morning friends. The kids are in full force super early so that’s super. We’ve got a busy day going to an indoor playground with some friends and their kids, home for lunch then B’s last sportball class and the last one is parent participation, should be fun. I guess later I should start wrapping gifts, I pulled a guster last night and gave up before i even started.

I'm trapped under a sleeping baby.
After another major vomiting session before bed he actually slept 8-5:30. I gave him a bottle and he crashed on me in the rocking chair. I think we've turned a corner..

Not sure what we're going to do today.
Dude seems interested in seeing the movie Ferdinand since I showed him the little orphaned calf I met at the sanctuary with the same name. So maybe the two of us will try that.
