guster I totally get the financial anxiety. I've had it for a month, dipping into savings regularly while H was off work. My goal for the new year is to get shit under control and get our savings built back up. Easier said than done. H did finally get his mileage reimbursement from when we went to San Antonio...which went to pay his anesthesiology bill from his surgery.

So now, after the conversation regarding Ryan's toy review, I have been pestering my husband about what we can do to make 11 million dollars. Not so surprisingly, we has no answers.

Morning from my living room, NOT from the road to Boston. Yay!! I went to running group and DH took the boys to the bounce house place for open jump, since they were stuck inside all week. Running group was nuts - it was freezing and snowy, I got icicles on my eyelashes, and I swear our run was uphill the entire time. My asthma was out of control by the end, it's time to see a doctor.
Now Colin is playing hockey and giving me a play-by-play while Chase climbs on me. Both have chapped skin on their faces, which is odd since they've been inside so much. Poor kiddos.

Happy Saturday.
MH had to go into work to make sure the troops haven’t burned down the shacks and the base is still standing, B is watching a show downstairs and J’s chilling in her crib so I’m having a mid morning sit down.
I think I’ve got to run out to the bookstore later and pick up Christmas cards for next year. I’ve looked a couple places so far but the only ones I’ve found say season’s greetings and happy holidays and I want ones that say Merry Christmas.

joelies, C has had the worst chapped skin on his upper lip! I think he must pull it in his mouth/lick his upper lip. We've been trying to be really good about vasaline even when it's not red.

vino, if I bought Christmas cards a year early I'd most certainly forget about them or lose them by next year.

Morning all. We are attempting to pack up and it's not going well..so.much.stuff. I'm also trying to make sure the house is in good shape and maybe get a few groceries for my mom before we leave. I feel awful leaving her since she has a fever, but I need us home and organized if any of us get it next. My sis left yesterday, such a cluster of a week.
J is watching cars. He loves cars stuff but had never seen it, but it seems a bit scary to him. N took her first steps last night, right on schedule with j's timing!

vino, if I bought Christmas cards a year early I'd most certainly forget about them or lose them by next year. pack them in a bag on top of the Christmas decorations with the kids Christmas/winter books, or in a drawer with the rest of your cards. Easy, peasy.

@wine, I guess I never did the math in my head, and I didn't realize how close Lue and baby #3 will be. Is this bad? I'm freaked out because X and P will be 20 months apart. Yikes.

Let's just remember the person I know who I think I've mentioned on here. 4 boys under the age of 2. 1.5 year old and baby triplets.

Morning! DH was a giant idiot last night. Around 3am he came strolling into my bed with both girls wide awake. Of course S just wanted to party and wouldn’t lay nicely. So I took H and went back to her bed so DH could deal with S. Then H whined at me because she wanted to sleep with daddy. Anyway, not a happy me MOTN. S is already down for a nap because apparently she was up at 6:30. I’m not in the best mood today. My sister is getting a hotel room later and invited us to come swim so we will do that around 4. I need to take a shower so I can shave my legs.

When xmas comes around I feel like a failure for bit thinking of stupid toys that can be sold at an amazing markup (lol ball, fingerling, hatchimal, tsum tsum).

DD and I made it to the movie. C took a bottle of breast milk while we were gone (I'm so afraid he won't because of T). Now we are home and T threw up. Hoping to contain it to just him.

I slept in because my back was all out of whack. Then we went sled riding after breakfast. There wasn't enough to sled so A hooked it up to the golf cart and pulled us around. It was a blast. We ate lunch and peach is about asleep but jack is fighting it. I'm taking him on a drive to pass out so I can clean. We need to get the tree out. It's shedding like crazy.

Thanks for thinking of her! She doesn’t let it slow her down much; she’s still mostly crawling but the last couple days has been attempting to walk with it a bit. Our follow-up appointment is the 17th and we should get the go-ahead to ditch it at that point, but the ortho said we can take it off one day this week to see how she does. She is standing up on her bad leg without the boot (in the tub, getting dressed, etc) so I’m happy she is willing to put weight on it.
