Thank you, everyone! It was an insane day, but I am so so so thankful that we are both ok! I can't imagine how that must have been for MH, he said he just started uncontrollably sobbing after they had him leave the OR. We are so in love with our tiny little guy though and can't wait to hold him. I am wishing I'd had them tie my tubes, I think I'm done having babies unless we adopt lol.

I’m home and boy did I have a day! On the drive down about an hour south the roads were kind of dicey. There were patches of snow and ice, and at one spot a semi had slid off the road and into the ditch. I didn’t have any issues but I was driving very very carefully. About half hour after that I decided to stop for Starbucks. This was a poor choice because both girls woke up while I was in the drive thru instead of sleeping the whole way. This turned out to be fine and neither girl was crabby. I gave H her kindle and S the iPad with Moana playing. Maybe half hour later H told me her tummy was upset. Shortly after that I looked back over my shoulder at H and she was silently vomiting down on her left shoulder. We had to drive a little ways because there were no exits. I finally got off and had to drive a couple miles off the interstate to a rinky dink town and cleaned her up. I didn’t pack any extra clothes but I did bring a pair of pjs for her to change into before we came home. I put the pj shirt on her and back on the road we went. As we were pulling into Omaha she threw up again, but this time quite a bit more so we took a detour to old navy to get her some new clothes and then target to get fabreeze because my car and her carseat smelled terrible. Finally after that we met up with wedding and everything was great. The drive home was fine, the roads were much better than the drive down. There were a few icy patches but they were all in the left lane so I stayed in the right. I’m currently washing all her clothes and the blankets from the car. I will need to wash the carseat cover but that’ll have to wait till the morning because it’s almost midnight. S and wedding were best buddies tonight. We walked to the restaurant (and because I’m a terrible mother I forgot their mittens in the car) and on the way back H fell down and skinned her knee and elbow so I had to carry her back. We had yummy pizza and were about the only people in the restaurant. The kids were running around and being crazy, but it was fine. Then back at the hotel the girls really enjoyed putting everything they could get their hands on in the fridge.

I really like that rug! What if you turned the table horizontally? Would the edge be too close to the sideboard? ETA: tag trtlcrzySorry, just getting back to this now. It wouldn’t fit the other way. It’s a little tight with the way it is now. The “sideboard” (which is actually our old tv stand that currently houses all of the art and craft supplies) is like 25ish inches deep and the room is only around 10ft wide (from wall to kitchen island). Ideally I will eventually get an actual sideboard that’s 15-18 inches deep to give a little more clearance.

Up with a coughing Jackson. Just gave him some nighttime cough medicine. Hopefully it kicks in soon so we both can get some more sleep.
