I’m at Ian’s well check. Little dude gained more than 3lbs in a month! He is now 10lbs 7oz up from 6lbs 11oz a month ago. What a chunk! Lol I am in a room waiting on the dr. I hear all of the sick kids in the waiting room and it’s making me want to spray Lysol everywhere. The carrier is getting wiped down when I get home. I am also going to throw his blanket in the wash. Do not want sick germs

Anyway now I’m lisyening to DS fill his pants. I don’t want to change him until I’m sure he is done. DD will be up from her nap in about 10 minutes and then we have to kill time. Maybe we will go for a walk after DS’ next feeding but I need to charge my phone first. She likes music while we walk.

Ugh, it took my DD forever to nap. So I'm finishing up my week 4 homework now - and now I'm just barely a week ahead. I need to really catch up and try to finish up this course this week/weekend. MH and DD are going to a daddy/daughter dance Saturday night, so that will give me some time at home by myself to either do schoolwork or just relax. Week 5's work looks easy so hopefully I can finish it tonight/tomorrow night.
Ah, and I just remembered I have to go take out ground beef for dinner tonight (baked ziti!)

Now I got to bust my butt to get the kitchen cleaned and do the laundry. H forgot to put M in a diaper at nighttime! 🤦🏼♀️ I noticed with my DD that day training **seems** to be taking care of night training too... so yesterday and today I toyed with naps in her undies. Hopefully she wakes up dry again today - we make it a priority to get right to the potty after nap and she has to go before her nap - and if that works this week, next week we might try overnight. She's been waking up dry in her pull ups since potty training EXCEPT for two nights - one of those nights we neglected to prompt her to pee before bedtime. FX you can get down this path soon!! I am reeeeally excited to hide all the pull ups. I don't want to be THAT person and hold onto them for DD2 because it'll be two years. But what do I do with pull ups that are not in packaging that are unused? I can't donate them, right?

I swear, it’s the worst when the elementary school phone number pops up on my caller ID. DD1 got sent home with a 103 temp. She’s not acting super sick and it seems like a cold most likely. But strep is going around at her school. Going to see how she is in the morning and decide if I need to take her to the doc. In the meantime she’s been quarantined to the basement.

Today I am taking baby J for our first solo outing while H stays home with DD. His nostrils are itsy bitsy so we are going to the pediatric ENT. Its unclear whether he is having trouble breathing but he definitely sounds congested and makes some weird noises while nursing and sleeping and basically all the time. Good luck! Fx it’s nothing. L snorts like a pig, it’s cute. Lol Update: He's fine - basically. He's got super narrow nostrils, which means he probably will have trouble breathing when he gets a cold but the ENT will give us instructions for Afrin usage based on his age and weight if/when that happens. He also has a floppy voice box which is why he's making the funny barks and snorts. This should strengthen and be a non issue by the time he's around 1. So good news!

rebeccabunch, how did you sanitize the suction breastpump thing? Mine just arrived and I'm so excited to try it but it looks like it was direct from China so I want to make sure I clean it properly first.

We had a blast at the park! The weather is beautiful so DD ran around for an hour while I sat with DS in the stroller. Lately it’s been too cold for DS but DD doesn’t care so I’ve felt bad we haven’t gotten to go. Hopefully we can do this regularly on the afternoons when I’m alone with both kiddos all day.
DH isn’t home yet which is annoying since it’s already pretty late (for him at least). And DD will be going to bed in an hour. I really would prefer he do all of that since I’m wiped out (and today was an easy day with both kids— I can’t imagine what a hard day will feel like lol).

We just got home from M's chest ultrasound. Little dude does in fact have pyloric stenosis. We are being referred to a specialist at children's hospital and he will need surgery. I've been an anxious mess since the radiologist first mentioned the S word 😭 But the food thing is that we finally know what causes the vomiting

Nap time M is normally dry, we want to get a waterproof mattress protector before we officially try for naps. Night time is a different story. Are you on a local buy nothing group? I would just offer them there if you are.

That’s exactly why I think L snorts.

MH had pyloric stenosis as a baby and he had surgery for it. He's fine though and your little guy will be too!!

The good news is that they usually recover well and quickly and it usually stops the puking right away.

I’m thinking of doing something crazy to my hair. I don’t ever color it and I only get light layers when it’s cut. I don’t even blow dry it often. I saw this on IG and now I want it.

marygracerich that's gorgeous! Would not be brave enough that's for sure. I'm going to get my hair done right before I go back to work to try to make myself feel better about going back so early.

maddisonrose my cousins son had pyloric stenosis and the only lasting effect is the scar line from his belly button. It can be really small or large depending on how you fill out as you grow. But that’s the only thing he has from it.

After everyone I know saying it’s pretty and my cousin that is a hairdresser saying she would do it for me, I made the decision to go for it. I’m not looking forward to bleaching some of my hair but I figure my hair grows pretty quickly and well, it’s just hair. 🤷🏻♀️
