Morning all.
It was pyjama day for B's class as well and he actually went in them, he normally protests. I was on the bus, missed my stop, went on a wild goose chase for some breakfast and was about 15 minutes late for work. it can only go up from here, right?

Hopefully you at least got a good breakfast out of the deal!

I've only used my instant pot once. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Ditto. And it came out like mush.

Morning, still home sick. Been watching crappy Christmas movies. We did secret Santa at work, today was the exchange. As it turned out all my coworkers secretly bought an extra gift for me, because I’m always so thoughtful to them... I’m really touched and happy. I’m feeling a little guilty that I wasn’t there, my boss is bringing over the presents after work ☺️. That is so sweet!

Hi! I'm off today and the kids are at daycare (pajama day for C too!). I grocery shopped, wrapped MH's gifts and am doing laundry. Enjoying some coffee on the couch now.

And thank you, yummeecookee, for the scotch suggestions! I found the Johnny Walker double black for MH and it's wrapped and ready to go!

Kids pyjama day just sounds to cute! I’m going to drop this idea with my mom, so she can do it at her daycare.

tgrimes is the headache from the spinal tap? Can they do a blood patch like post partum women get when they get spinal headaches?

I really want to take the boys there this winter. Just for a night or 2. I should start looking for groupons. We did a Groupon. It was such a good deal, but be sure to account for food costs or bring your own. My H and I had a burger each and split an order of fries. $20. kim22, what happened?! By no fault of Great Wolf, DD got car sick on the way there (par for the course with her), DH had some sort of breathing issue, and DS1 went to town on the buffet then threw up all over the place. We did not make it to bedtime. It was my worst trip ever but the kids still talk about how great it was. Maybe since I'm not working, I will surprise them with a mid week trip at the end of winter.

xolastunicornxo my Groupon Bras are all I have. They are not at all cute but they are comfy. At $6 each, I can't complain. I will need to get some nicer ones once I actually have a life beyond the couch but for now they work. I can't find them anymore on Groupon. They were called Angelina Seemless Nursing Bras.

I braved Target with both kids. So crowded, but they were so well behaved it was incredible. I may have bribed Josie with Starbucks and some glittery lipgloss. Came back to the car to a text message that MH's school is dismissing early for some bad weather we're having. My weather app doesn't show anything, but I'm happy to have him home!

Wow kim22! Was that the first time you'd weighed yourself since having C? I remember my OB told me to wait a week or so before weighing...I did with B but didn't after C and it was depressing DH is home, cookies are delivered to neighbors. We have the nicest neighbors...we've lived here what, 4 months? and one brought over a tin of popcorn and craft beer; the other just dropped off cookies and she also got the kids advent calendars a few weeks back). They make up for the fact that the house is falling down around our ears Now it's time to start organizing everything. B is packed--Mr. On Top of Things. He gets that from his father, clearly.

flamingo yes, my scale batteries are dead at home and I didn't have replacements on hand. I want to hit up the after Christmas sales to get myself some new clothes next month. Since this is definitely my last baby, I'm super motivated to get in shape.

Thank you nam2013!!! I was at the Y crying on FaceTime to my husband and he was NOT encouraging. I am very very overwhelmed. My classes are 8 weeks so they are accelerated and it's sooo hard to do with little kids by yourself. Happy Anniversary ladystrat!! Looks like a fun trip... I would love to go to GWL sometime in the near future! Awesome for your boys joelies! That's a big deal for both! And gift ideas for a 7 yo girl... mine loves: Shopkins, num nums, and mini hatchimals (not the huge expensive one). All of that stuff is affordable and at Target. Stop being so pretty tgrimes!!!

Thanks everyone! I got her a friendship bracelet kit and a glass painting kit. Both say 8+ which will make her happy - she's very grown up and all. The boys are home and playing. Even DH is hanging out, it's so nice. I'll probably start wrapping during naps and maybe sneak a quick one in myself. But our holiday weekend has officially started!
