Anyone else up??
L is fine, but seems to have a tiny stomach bug. Lots of diarrhea yesterday and low appitite. A couple wake ups and up at 4:30 for the day today. We are watching Frozen now. I'm hoping for an early nap!

Morning. Chase was crying on and off all night and my medicine didn't calm my cough last night like it has before, so it was pretty miserable. I'm going to call the doctor to be safe because at this point, my entire body is coughing (if that makes sense) and given what happened last year, I'm nervous about being one of those flu-turned-pneumonia cases. FX Chase wasn't crying because he's got it. I didn't hear much coughing out of him. DH, that's another story...

Morning time. N won't sleep, it's slowly killing me.
I am going with my mom to a follow-up with her neurosurgeon today, so schlepping the kids in, working for a couple hours and then driving over and hour to appt and then right back to get the kids. I want to a) see him since he is amazing, b) be there since my mom has no recollection of him c) we have some questions on what to expect long term. Hoping it provides some closure or something? I dunno.

I thought I was done with showings, but my real estate agent said until the inspection and we have a signed contract (hopefully by the end of this week) we should continue to show. We have one today at three.

Morning, all! Ugh. Feel better, joelies. Hoping the appointment goes well, tallb. Errands this morning and a few jobs around the house this afternoon. The kids had a snow day yesterday, so I had them clean out the DVD case. We eliminated so many. We just don't watch much hard media anymore. I'm reclaiming half the space for bookshelves since the girls' collection has overrun the little bookshelf in our bedroom. I'm also planning to get started on a new centerpiece for our dining room table. We'll see how that goes.

We drove by a cemetery this morning and C asked what it was. I said "Its a cemetery". He says "Yeah, but what do you do there?". I told him the truth about dead bodies being buried there. I don't want to freak him out but how do you answer that one? I also asked him who his Valentine was and he said "all my friends. I'm not going to shoot them or anything!" Um..... Then I just read chrisy01's post about the kid in her class and I worry that C is that kid. On a less dark note- DH picks up C on Tuesdays so I can go to the gym. Since my butt still hurts I'm skipping it this week. Instead I'm going to dinner at my parents where my mom is making her signature chicken dish- its like a gorgonzola/marsala situation- mashed potatoes and green beans. I can't wait!

I think I'm almost back to normal. I plan to workout tonight so that will be the true test. Hopefully I can get it done before A gets home because he'll yell at me for pushing myself. He's been so great lately, I mean he's never awful. But just so extra thoughtful and caring lately. I mentioned getting my hair cut last weekend but my person only works every other Saturday and she was off. He made a point to text me this morning to remind me to call her today and set something up so I don't forget and have to wait 2 more weeks.

The things these kids come up with! Matthew has asked me every day for about 2 weeks why he has a nose. Now he wants to know why he has 2 hands. The nose question was a little easier.

I managed to get my little L down for a nap, so tablet for C and Bachelor for me! I'm glad I took a quick shower before MH left, so I don't have to waste precious nap time showering!

wedding I don't think C is like the little boy. The little boy thinks shooting is a game and does it a lot. From what I can tell based on my conversation with the director, what LO had told me and what I have seen this little boy seems obsessed with guns and violence.

Morning! joelies When you call your doctor, ask for a prescription for telsum pearls. I don't know how to spell it or what the actual name is, but they are little yellow pearl looking pills that help eliminate the cough sensation/tickle in the back of your throat. Life saver for me when I have a bad cough. tallb I hope the appointment with your mom goes well. peachsmama that is really sweet of A. My H would never think to do something like that! yummeecookee I'm not a KK fan, so that wouldn't bother me. One of our sales reps brought in a box of donuts and a bag of muffins from Dunkin last week. It was torture to walk by and see them everytime. Once he left, I put them in the breakroom for the production employees. And so I wouldn't see them every damn time I walked out of my office!

Morning. I’m on the couch under a blanket with coffee, the fire place on and the heat up. I swear I haven’t been warm in days. (Not sick, just the cold) I’m so ready for spring!
Dropping of n at school in a half hour and then heading to work. It’s a quiet week since by boss and one coworker are both gone all week.

We call the cemeteries gardens and I tell Cadence those are the spots where our family in heaven can see us the best. It all depends on what you believe and want them to believe. I didn't tell her there were bodies there.

chrisy01, does he have older siblings? They might be playing shooter video games and such, so at home it isn't a big deal. I've seen gun play at school lately, but I try to remind Cadence we don't play that way and guns are not toys. It's hard when she goes to see her cousins who are all boys and that's all they do. Shooter video games, giant nerf guns, constant gun play.

The gun talk/battle is hard in our house. Our whole family hunts. So it's a part of our lives seasonally. But because of Matthew getting to obsessed in my opinion (everyone else thinks I'm over reacting) I took away all his guns except nerf guns. And we only shoot windows and dinosaurs with those. But then he started watching power rangers and talking about killing so I had to ban power rangers too. The preschool he starts in the fall has a one strike and you're out policy on gun talk. You get a letter the first time and the next time- they are kicked out of school. So we have to rein it in by fall..
