I had some stupid frozen entree for lunch bc we need to go shopping and there's nothing in the house. I actually think it was my moms bc (a) I don't remember buying it and (b) it's far smaller than any frozen entree I would call a meal (Smart Ones). I'm still hungry. My options are Hershey kisses (trying hard to avoid seeets when I can), cantaloupe and honey dew which I already had some of this morning, an apple... or when the babies wake up I can put them in the stroller on this damp and dreary day and walk my butt over to the ice cream shop. I mean, there's subway and about ten other eating places, but ice cream is the only real option.
Hi, I raised my voice with the babies today bc the separation anxiety they're going through is getting to me right now. I need to pee but they won't nap bc they start to freak out as they're falling asleep, they both cry to be held the whole time. I tried putting them in their walker cars and they just follow me around amd around and around, corner me, and run my feet over. Thank god they're finally napping now.
Just remembered I have frozen apple pie in the freezer. Check and mate.

danib one CW was on the phone and I just talked to the other for a couple minutes while my food was heating up. He told me about how his wife made Sheppard's pie but apparently he didn't know what that was. I thought that was common knowledge.

I'm eating leftover stir fry. It's good but not hitting the spot right now. Plus I'm almost done and still hungry. I split it with H and gave him a bigger serving.

If I worked with you jubilantsquirrel, I would be on My 600 Pound Life. All those things sound AMAZING. Burrito, cashew chicken or Mongolian beef are my top 3 today. ETA: just saw the burger menu. Make that my *700 pound life*

Lol kleigh not cruel at all. Unfortunately for me, H has figured out how to combat this. He rolls his tongue and coughs really hard. Whatever I managed to sneak in comes shooting out.

Speaking of lunch, currently in the Krystal drive-thru line. Then we're going to Target. Swim got cancelled 😢so we're going to get some craft supplies. B wants to make 'magic goo' (apparently he saw something on tv where they made slime with Elmer's glue) so that's what we're going to do.

I was a super nice wife today and went to Chipotle to get lunch for my husband (he's teleworking today); normally, I tell him that he can have anything I can get at a drive-thru, but today I took the three littles and went in for him. Of course, I also got a bowl for kid 4 and I to share, so that made it a little more worth it.

Hey all. Trying to catch up, the board is moving today! Worked all morning and then spent the rest of my day trying to clean up the sunroom where we had our dog last night. So much sick everywhere and M woke up too often last night for me to really get in and scrub it. I'm going to do another once over, but I think I'm going to have to touch up the paint in some areas. I've never seen anything like that.
I am not enjoying this separation anxiety business. Combined with a teething sensitive baby and we're treading some rough waters. She cries if I even look in a different direction and is back to every hour wake ups at night. I tell her a million times a day "it's ok, I'm here and I love you," I just wish she could understand me.

sophiegrace Tottttaaaaallly get you girlie. She cries out the whole night through, about every 30mins to 1hr looking for me. This comes after she had just done three or four good nights of only one wake up. This always happens, forward progress and then BAM! let's take a few steps back. I hear AB doing the same with H, not nearly as frequent, but crying until I hear H reassure him. During the day might be more painful bc seeing me isn't enough, they want me to pick them up, this is so tough lol.

It's like I've gone back in time to the newborn days when I had 2.5 seconds to shower before she realized I wasn't holding her and she'd have a nuclear meltdown. Except now she's 14 pounds heavier and loves to fling herself to and fro while I'm holding her. Fun.

Anyone's baby making a weird wheezing sound while they're talking? I can't tell if she's doing it over and over because she got a reaction from me the first time, she just likes making the noise, or if there is something wrong. I listened to her lungs and they sound fine, looked in her throat and it looks normal.

B wants to make 'magic goo' (apparently he saw something on tv where they made slime with Elmer's glue) so that's what we're going to do. We've done the slime! Word of caution, don't add the food coloring. It's fine without it and won't stain hands this way.

Or is it better I don't know?😜 It's one of those things where you probably have to grow up with it or you'd find it disgusting, but it's essentially the South's version of White Castle. Greasy slider burgers and fries, and some other fun things like Chiks and Corn Pups (fried chicken slider and mini corn dog).

sophiegrace Lilah will suck in and make noise at the same time. It sounds really weird, but she thinks it's funny. Not sure if that's what you mean, though. I'm also with you and kleigh on the teething and separation anxiety. And on vacation with a tiny full bed it sucks. She's ok ad long as she's playing and I'm not around, but as soon as I show up or if I leave it's a meltdown.
