I realized my underwear was on inside out when I put my pants on this morning. I only hesitated for a second wondering if it was worth the exertion to fix it. Nope.

Little guy has been a pretty good sleeper lately - but I am so so exhausted. I hope I can nap today.

Good morning! We have had breakfast and are all dressed. Little man had a rough start today. He was congested most of the night. This morning after I fed him, he gagged and he vomited soooo much. It requires me changing the sheets on my bed and his pajamas. It even came out of his nose. However he is no longer congested so maybe it was a blessing in disguise. We are going to make a run to the store after G gets on the bus. Then we don’t have plans for the rest of the day.

Happy Friday! My babysitter is coming this morning to pick up DS1 and take him to an indoor play place. 🙌🏻 Then I’m really hoping little man will nap with me today while big boy naps. It’s our one day with good weather so we’ll do a stroller walk after naps! Should be a good day.

DD1 is with the sitter all day today and I’m going to get my hair cut and highlighted. DH isn’t feeling well - he said his kidneys hurt. Maybe bc he never drinks water? Hopefully he can still watch the baby so I don’t have to bring her with me. I bought DH, DD1 and me matching hats for the Olympics and we tried them on last night. If only there was one for the baby

The concert last night was.. okay. I'm getting old. I like loud music but when I cringe when they scream into the mic, it's too loud. I didn't know many of the Stone Sour songs so I got bored towards the end.
Kaleb was asleep in the swing when wee got home so I just slept on the couch to avoid transferring him. He woke up a half hour after i fell asleep and then a couple hours later. He usually has one wake up so I'm extra tired.

Well. I remember so vividly seeing DD's blood for the first time. It was her first set of shots and while I was expecting her to cry I wasn't expecting to see blood. She was 2 mos old.
Joel is two weeks old today and I saw his blood for the first time when DD took a big gouge out of his forehead with her fingernail while he was nursing. 😓😓😓

40.3 At work today and no motivation. Also sick of everyone asking me why I am still here.
My cracker eating co-worker told me the other day (after my appt when she found out I was dilated to 4) "your eligible for the epidural, why didn't you go to the birth center and tell them you want the epidural?!" Um...because I am not in labor?? I said, am I just supposed to lay in a hospital bed for a couple of days with an epidural while I have intermittent contractions? She says yes, then they bring you ice chips and popsicles" Yeaaaaah doesn't that sound great...wtf

40+4 today. I cannot believe I am still pregnant. I made yesterday my last day of work so I’m officially on maternity leave...one day early, but it felt amazing to sleep in until 9:30 (thank you, DD!). Of course I was up at 5:30 keeping track of contractions and then nothing happened. We’re supposed to get over 12” of snow between today and Sunday. So it’s pretty much inevitable that we’ll be driving in nasty weather to get to the hospital.
Membranes were swept at yesterday’s appt and I’m still only 1cm dilated. Baby is further down so that’s good. I can definitely feel more pressure. Here’s hoping something happens today or tomorrow!
Happy Friday!

Good morning!!!
I am in the waiting room at my OB to do a blood pressure check due to the pre eclampsia and the high blood pressure after delivery.

The doc wrote J a prescription for nasal drops for her congestion. She hasn't been fully processed onto our insurance yet so I have to pay OOP. They cost $150 😭😭

Hi all! Checking in here. We're just having a movie day here. MH is at the dealer w his car getting warranty work done and maybe checking out lease options since he had yet ANOTHER thing pop up while he was driving over there.
I'm going to go bake a cake with the little.
I'm going to have MH grab a couple of the pallet wood pieces and build me a sign I can letter DD2s name on. I have stain, paint, all that so. It's cheaper than the other name decor I was going to do, since it's basically free. I just need to sketch it out.

I’ve been absolutely scrambling to get grading done just in case I’m not back on Monday. I’d like to leave a clean slate for my long term sub if I can. On Fridays I have a team meeting instead of planning so I’ve been fitting in the grading in every spare moment. Except I went to the meeting and remembered it’s a special one with parents of a student I don’t have, so I don’t have to go. So after kicking my butt to get my work done, now I’m hanging out on my phone with nothing to do. Better than the alternative I guess?

DD1 is home today, not sick anymore but there are parent/teacher conferences. DD2 is hopped up on albuterol because her breathing/cough has been questionable, but she went to school. Now DD3 has a fever. Hoping I can keep DD4 healthy.

I'm in the 1 bath/week club too.
We finally had a better night's sleep. It took THREE hours to get LO to fall asleep but I got 2 3 hour stretches of sleep which is better than what we had before.
My parents are taking DS1 to the rodeo and he looks so adorable in his cowboy outfit. He is excited to see the animals.
I have already showered so I'm feeling proud of myself and my goal is to go to a coffee shop and maybe the grocery store!! I'm setting the bar high!

It’s almost over, stephne! Hopefully we have babies this weekend! 🤞🏻 I’m being induced Sunday night either way. I just want that process to be fast...or faster than when I was induced with DD. And WTF to your coworker saying to go to the hospital and request an epi when you’re not even in labor. 🙄 People blow my mind sometimes.

I would rather go on my own, maybe we will have bday twins!
and if you knew this co-worker it would not surprise you in the least. she's ugh

Hiiiii. Last night was a beast of a night. DS was an angel & did a 6.5 hr stretch followed by a 4hr but I did not get to experience the glories of it because DD was up a million times. First time was at 10:30 and she had one of her weird nightmare fit type of things so she was literally screaming in her room while H and I stood there. Eventually H told me to go back to bed & he would handle it. She came back in at 1am to tell me she’d taken off her pull-up and had peed in bed. So I had to totally change her sheets MOTN. And then of course DS was a little doll-baby sleeping through it all.
Thankfully it got better bc a girlfriend brought over breakfast this morning and stayed for a few hours. It was so nice to have adult conversation & she snuggled DS the whole time! 🙌🏼 And then when she was leaving DH pulled into the driveway bc his flight got cancelled so he is home for the day!

We’ve done 3 baths so far with H. We’re bath-happy in this house. DD1 still takes one every night because she LOVES tub time and always has. And it seems the H is following suit! She loves her bath time. It’s so precious.
