C slept all day yesterday then was up from 11-3am. I finally slept on the couch with him in the rock n play. DS1 had practice 6-8am so I woke up alone with 3 kids. As soon as they got home, I slept 3 glorious hours. We quick put the kids in front of the tree and made a Christmas card last night. They can be picked up at 1:30 so hopefully I will have them in the mail by Monday. tgrimes I'm shocked a neurologist wasn't called in last night for your nephew. Hope they can figure it out soon. inthekitty your day sounds like so much fun.

melaniesue I’m so sorry about your grandma. As you probably know mine isn’t doing good either, so I can relate. Hope you can see her.

I’m annoyed. My face literally burns every day whenever I put any product on it (and it lasts for a while after applied) and new acne is popping up every day. I got these meds from the derm to help with acne but instead I’ve swapped that problem for new ones. I’m also getting acne where it never really was a problem before. I have a follow up in a few weeks so I hope she has some better answers.

I got up early and cleaned the whole house. And put out my butter for cookies so it can get to room temperature. The boys and I left to go have lunch and do some last-minute shopping so Alex can work on an online class for work. Hoping the boys nap on the way home so that I can get some dough done without their help. I'm saving the easy dough for them to help with.

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. I really want to see Ferdinand! Let us know how it is if y’all go.

They’re still waiting for a neurologist and no one can tell them when he’ll get there.
My sister was reading up on the condition they think he had and it says it could take several mo this to recover. She is like me and plans for the worst so she’s already decided she’ll have to file for bankruptcy since she’ll have to quit her job to stay home and take care of him.
I’m trying to talk her off the ledge but at this point I don’t really blame her.

Asshole dog strikes again. So long advent calendar, you were fun while you lasted. Oh my god, my asshole dog struck too!i bought dh a beer making kit and the damn dog broke into the garage and ate the hops. Then I when I was all pissed off I said to dh “I’m going to kill this stupid dog if she eats anything else” and Landon heard me and went to dh crying later and said he didn’t want me to kill the dog. It was a whole thing. For the record, I’m pissed at the dog but I will not actually kill her.

I've never dealt with terrible acne but they definitely have helped to the point I never get breakouts anymore. Ever.

Well, we went, but didn't even make it through the previews because it was too loud for him. Sigh. Third attempt at a movie and it always ends the same. Why can't my kid just relax and enjoy something?!

tgrimes does she have fmla on her job? Or her husband? I would have them push to see a general neurologist if the pediatric one hasn't been by in their 24hrs stay. Has there been any type of physician by our just the nurses? Also there was someone on GD that just went through a meningitis diagnosis with her kid. She might have done resources even if it isn't the same dx

Some (very few) states have paid family leave where you can get 6 weeks paid to care for a sick relative.

She’s also tenured so I’m assuming they could work something out. Even if she doesn’t get paid leave while she’s on FMLA between me and my parents, they wouldn’t have to worry about money.

Well today has taken a super fun turn. I’m at the children’s hospital ER with C. She and B were playing and B had hold of her ankle and she fell and both my H and I heard something pop. She was crying and wouldn’t put weight on it. So here we are. Please cross your fingers for us that nothing is broken.

Our theater has special showings for stimulus sensitive patrons where they don't turn the lights down as much, don't turn the volume as high, and allow the attendees to get up and walk around if needed. You might see if yours has anything like that for him.

I don’t think I ever said hi this morning, so hi! Did the last (well hopefully) of our Christmas shopping, met up with a friend for lunch and had drinks at my aunts. So fun day, but our house looks like a bomb went off in it. I could do something about it now, but bed&cocoa trumps cleaning big time. We’re planning on going to the zoo tomorrow, so I guess the mess will have to wait till Monday, oh well.

Long morning. Cadence woke up in a wet bed, again, and told me she didn't want to go back to pullups. I think mh must have reprimanded her for it, but he says he didn't. After gymnastics I took Cadence to run errands, Subway lunch, and frozen yogurt. She said she would nap, but she was lying. So I made her clean up all her toys instead.
