I'm watching the Foo Fighter documentary "Back and Forth" for the millionth time. I want Dave Grohl to talk to me. William Goldsmith makes an appearance, RunsforWineandCarbs.

I got dressed and did my make up because I thought I would be giving a training today. It got cancelled. So I'm all dressed up with no where to go and a case of cabin fever. dammmmn. Cabin fever is the worst! Other than day care drop offs and the doctor, I don't think I've been ANYWHERE. Like even for work. I NEED TO TALK TO AN ADULT, DAMN IT!

I want to go get a mani-pedi but I'm afraid my water is going to break. Should I just wear a giant pad?

The OB said to be prepared not to have time for an epidural. I prepared myself for that last time and got the epidural at 8cm. This time, I was not prepared for that. Charlotte was born at 41w3d. Thats an entire month later than what I am now. I think this is all stress-induced this time. But the baby is at early term and I am GDM and AMA, so I'm not freaking out.

shellyr I agree to getting the pedi. And if you don't have a change of clothes in your car it might be a good idea. When my water broke with M I was very happy to have underwear to change into. But treat yourself, you'll have 2 kiddos before you know it!

I had such a great parenting moment today that I feel like sharing.
It’s no secret I have food issues with S1 sometimes and these food issues make me extremely anxious. My anxiety tends to make me blow up and get angry. I have been working really hard on it. I’ve started reading this book called “talk so kids will listen and listen so kids will talk” I’ve read one chapter and have been trying to practice the skills they talked about. Which was basically acknowledging and recognize your child’s emotions. You don’t try to fix it. You do this by naming what they are feeling then responding with things like mmmmmm or oh. It kind of allows them to process it on those own. So.... this is what happed today. I is Isaac and M is me.
I-I want cantaloupe with breakfast M-We don’t have any cantaloupe but we have blueberries, blackberries and strawberries. I-but I want cantaloupe!! M-you are mad because you want cantaloupe I-yeah and you NEVER buy what I want! M-mmmmm I-I’m not eating anything unless I can have cantaloupe M-oh *i walk out of room to get Ethan up*
I come back with Ethan and not only is Isaac eating but he says, can I have some blackberries and raspberries too?
Guys this is crazy. This is NOT how this would typically go. I would normally yell and scream. Then Isaac and I would both be upset

jedi - I hope the no paci night went well! I need to work on this with K soon. Lol, I think you mean me. It actually did. He cried when we were putting in his pajamas when he would normally get his pacifier, but we distracted him with milk angs sesame street. He looked for it when he went to bed, but didn't cry again. Hopefully today will go as well at nap and bedtime.

I let him take a toy with him to nap and he plays for a but in bed then falls asleep.

Who rec'd minimalist baker website? mommabakes? coconutbacon? I found a vegan lentil shepherd's pie recipe there that I'm going to try b/c I have 2 work friends that are math teachers coming over for lunch next week...on Pi Day! I also am going to make a vegan avocado pie. E is doing OK this weekend, he has his top molars coming in and also has a cold so he's a bit out of sorts but hanging in there. DH and I are exhausted.
