Cadence fell asleep while I was reading to her. That never happens. The girl was exhausted.

The kids are off school tomorrow and next Monday. Pete took PTO to watch them tomorrow and next week my mom and my sister are coming over to babysit.

Josie has her winter break all next week. It usually coincides with MHs, but this year his school decided to break up the week: Thursday and Friday of this week plus Monday and Tuesday of next week.

Is Cher stuck in the blinds. How is C and C2 doing? Has C2 gotten any easier? I don't think C2 has gotten much easier if any. He's so darn cute though! C1 looks like the most perfect big brother. My info is based solely on snapchat lol.

Today is Lincoln's birthday and next Monday is President's Day. The public schools are closed for both and our daycare follows their calendar.

Our daycare/preschool doesn't follow school calendars, I'm dreading when C is in school and has so many extra days off to find child care for!

wineallthetime He definitely could! And I think that might be the route he goes. Thank you for asking chrisy01! I had a toooon of anxiety last night. Evenings are the worst for me.... but I made a drink and then went to bed... because that’s the healthy way to deal with things, right? Lol

And we're lucky they only do 3 days off for Thanksgiving and Christmas and no Spring break. I should have been a teacher.

cagoldi I just have to thank you again, because I’ve literally used the ring Ali g every single day since we got home from the hospital. Charlotte loves it and passes our immediately. I think it might be the most used baby gist I’ve ever received, beside the boppy for nursing!!! Which one did you get? I had one that I got rid of, but I could never seem to get the hang of it.

Its a wild bird, and four kids in it’s seriously a game changer. I use it daily and have hands free for the other kids, plus she loves it and goes to sleep immediately. It’s so nice. It lugging the car seat everywhere like I did with the boys.

Which fabric did you get? Also, it doesn't bother you to have a baby pressing against your nursing boobs? Tagging at cagoldi too. I really want to love the sling, guise...tell me all the things.

We did a paint night with bil and his girlfriend. This was what the original painting was. And then what we did to customize it lol. A was nervous but bought 2 rounds of shots and had a blast lol. He asked when we can do another. The boys were angels for my dad and had a blast. I don't even care that the house still smells like skunk anymore, just happy to add another reliable sitter to my list lol. ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180213/8724ae7fc7628854333113bede112162.jpg) ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180213/e8567816ee0671d375c17462fe2a2f0f.jpg)

And no, it doesn’t bother me to have her up against my boobs... she just kind of fits? And I over produce and have big boobs (and often sore!) while nursing so that’s saying something.

I believe trtlcrzy recommended Wild Bird and I wanted to try a ring sling with X but he HATED it and I don't know, I must not have been doing it right because it messed up my shoulder? It was great quality and gorgeous, just not for us. ETA: can't speak to the nursing boobs piece because I EFF from day one with X so once my milk came in I wore two tight sports bras for a few days and that was it.

dapostrophe I wore a RS with S. I didn’t get it until she was like 4 months maybe. It took a little bit to get used to but it’s so much more convenient than my solly wrap was. I had a Sakura bloom double linen and then another one that is made from a cotton wrap. Next time around I want to get a single linen like the wild bird (it’s much better to get a single for a newborn, the double was very bulky and harder to tighten) or Sakura bloom (wb is cheaper).

Thanks! I must not have been doing mine correctly or maybe it was a double linen like you mentioned. It felt bulky and difficult to tighten. I think I tried it with two kids and then gave up...I love the idea though.

Or a babywearing international meeting. Oh! I also got a water sling and it’s effing amazing. So easy to take the baby to the pool with the big kid(s). The one I have is beachfront baby brand (this also applies to you xolastunicornxo).

Will have to check that out considering we spend 99% of Our time at the pool in the summer.
