My sign is Capricorn, DH and H are Scorpio and S is Pisces. I have very little clue about what that means but there it is.

I sent the kids up stairs to “scare” Dh... but really just to have some quiet time. He’s packing since he has to leave at 4am for AZ, so he can deal with them for a little bit since I’m solo the next 3 days.
Buuut I have a hair appt and volleyball tomorrow so I’m dropping the kids off at my parents and they are going to spend the night and i can go out for drinks after volleyball. I don’t think Dh knows that yet... ha!

Great news, tgrimes!! kim22 - I had some severe preterm pain with Colin that I always suspected was kidney related. Apparently it's not unusual from all the squishing that goes on. My doctor agreed but said they wouldn't do anything until after delivery, so they never tested for anything. Let's say that pitocin cleared EVERYTHING out of my body before my eventual C, and I never had issues again. Still it sucked. I'm sorry.

After dinner I was getting the kids ready for a bath (DH was still at work) and stripped them both naked. I forgot that the kitchen rug was in the tub so I had to move that and wipe out the tub before I could fill it. The kids were in and out while I was working on it. S disappeared for a bit so I told H to go check on her...she found her in my bedroom next to a pile of poop. She walked a couple steps into the bathroom and peed on the tile. Learned my lesson.

It may be awhile still. He still can't get his dentures in and they said he may have to get fitted for new ones. Poor thing. I may be making another freezer stash for him while I'm there next week. I'm sure you have your own system down, but this reminded me of an eBook I bought. It was 4 sets of 10 crockpot meals, but she essentially doubled the recipe and you had a meal to freeze. With each set you ended up with 20 meals for like $150. She gave a full grocery list and charts for what to put in ziploc bags if you wanted to do it all at once (which I never did). I always thought it would be great for those times you need to send a meal for a new mom friend, sick family member, etc. I could hunt it down if you are interested. Sounds like he might need a special diet though. Yeah, he basically is on a baby good diet since he can’t chew anything. I make a bunch of soups and smoothies for him. We love freezer meals around here so feel free to post it if you find it!

sands42 I know both young house love and bower power bloggers have painted cabinets. It’s been a very long time since I read the posts but the thing I remembered is that the type of paint you use is super duper important (I think bower power even did a comparison of a couple of kinds). I will check them out! MH claims he has done this before but I don’t know if he’s just trying to make me not worry about it... so I’m worried lol.

M shit her pants at school this afternoon and didn’t tell anyone. Why, you ask? Because they were playing hide and seek on the playground and she didn’t want to go inside.
So gross.
And so much poop.

My milks coming in. Ugh, I’m glad but I forgot how painful this is until it settles. My poor little b cups are swollen big D’s, if not DD’s, right now. At least I know what I’ll look like with a boob job!

Trigger warning: miscarriage
Well, it's done. In the end, no need for pills or surgery, so I'm thankful for that. The sac came out fully intact, and we were able to see our little person and say goodbye.
I'm sore, weak, and tired but definitely feeling better now that it's behind us. My husband told the boys on their way home from school. They're pretty sad about it, but I'm glad they know now.

I just saw something on my FB about this...the Benjamin Moore Advance paint, while more expensive than some, is apparently highly recommended. We did our built-ins in FL and used a roller to get a smooth finish. I was generally pleased, but for kitchen cabinets (I contemplated doing ours in FL before we found out we were moving) our plan was to buy a sprayer--that seems to be the way to get the smoothest, most professional looking finish. And lots and lots of sanding. I found this blog at some point and pinned it, I thought it had some great tips (apparently she does this for a living now) www.evolutionofstyleblog.com/2012/01/how-to-paint-your-kitchen-cabinets-like.html

Anytime I yawn I get a shooting pain in my eye. It just started a little while ago. I've had a headache all afternoon, so I'm going to chalk it up to that. I'm heading to bed as soon as I get the girl to sleep.
