I should get out of bed and get some coffee. H slept decent last night after a couple rough ones.

I have to go to the consignment shop this morning to find some 6m sleepers. I have like 1, the rest are outfits.

[helloerrbody]

We are up nursing but fx we aren’t up for the day at 6am. He’s super fussy so I think he must have gas. Usually I’m sleeping while he’s nursing at this time but he was not happy.

Only thing planned today is taking and then teaching barre later this morning.

I have lots on my to do lift today including tagging for the consignment sale, sorting DS1’s bookshelf and mounds of laundry to put away which requires me to rearrange DS2’s dresser to fit it all.

It’s a gym class day for DD1 today, then after it we get pizza with friends. It used to be the highlight of my week, until DD1 started acting out all the time, running away when it’s time to go, screaming at the other kids who try to play with her, laying on the ground crying instead of putting her coat on. Last week we left early because she hit the baby.

So anyway, I’m really hoping today goes better. Her behavior has improved the past couple days, so 🤞🏻.

Ooh, I also really need to wash the 3-6 month clothes. I’m squeezing E into the 3 month and there are fewer and fewer pieces we can actually get away with.

Good morning!
We are getting G ready for school. She is already dressed and we have all had breakfast. MH is handling the baby at the moment.
After she gets on the bus, I’m going to shower, clean the house and go pick up my sister. She is going to watch both kiddos while MH and go see black panther. We haven’t had time away for just the two of us since the baby was born.
The baby is definitely teething. So much drool and chewing.

Hii

I made a dupe post.. Ignore mine!

I was able to get all my schoolwork done by midnight. Yay. 1 week down, 6 to go.

But we had a knock on our door at 4am. We had put the light on in our car for E to eat her ice cream last night and forgot to turn it out. I guess during patrol a police officer decided to stop to make sure everything was OK. But that was a scare.

[sunfrogger]

bassa I'm sorry!! Fx she straightens out today!!

Has anyone found cute matching Easter outfits for toddler and baby? And where?

I bought matching Carter's dresses for the girls. And my mom bought matching outfits from BRU for after church. They're not quite my style but it's nbd.

Edit: here is the dress I got them both :


White sweater, white tights, pink shoes. I'm struggling on moccasins for Liv because her feet are so tiny!

[sunfrogger]

Does anyone use Enfamil? I have 2 $5 coupons if anyone would like them, happy to mail them?

I also have 2 $5 coupons that someone can have. I would mail them. I used to do it with a mom on my previous bmb and we saved so much money.
If anyone has similac ones, I will be happy to take them.

Same for V! I'm thrilled.
Plus DH is back, he was out of town. So glad he is back!

I need to go for a run today. I'm thinking late morning. I'll also make some beef stew for our dinner tonight I think.

ETA letters I missed

[easternshoregirl]

Good luck at the class bassa!

[easternshoregirl]

I'm impressed with you all and the Easter outfits. I'll just look through what we have and try to pick something fancy! I actually did find a suit for DS in our box of clothes we have gotten as hand-me-downs but I think it is a little big right now.

[easternshoregirl]

Enjoy the movie marygracerich!

That would scare the crap out of me sunfrogger.

Add me to the club washing the next size of baby clothes (0-3 mos for us though) and needing to rearrange drawers. I have one load in now.

[easternshoregirl]

helloerrbody, I think V is finally getting big enough for me to be comfortable nursing her in the side lying position-yay! I have a hard time when they are so tiny. 

[sarahh]

DD2 is definitely going through a growth spurt I think. She normally drinks 20-25 oz a day and yesterday was probably 35oz. All those extra calories didn’t help with her sleep though.

I took a pic of the girls in their matching outfits yesterday and DD1 cracks me up

[cake]

Going shopping with my aunt this morning. She wants to buy H summer clothes. She’s already bought him a ton of stuff but she’s not letting me say no. She doesn’t have kids of her own and my brothers and I are her only niece and nephews. So it makes her happy and I’ll just go with.

Gymboree and Children's Place are my go-tos for matching outfits!

Good morning! I weighed J on my bathroom scale this morning and I don't think she has gained any weight since last week. Stupid boobs. I guess I will start giving her a bottle at night to boost her weight back up.

No plans here today, just meal planning and grocery shopping. Taking it easy!

[sweetsurprise]

Good morning. Today is my first day back at work. 😭

I haven't cried my makeup off yet so I'm counting it as a success. I'm pumping in my office....and getting paid for it! Lol.

Squeeze your babies for me.

Remember that method is not reliable. If she’s not acting hungry after eating, sleeping (as a baby should that it) and wet diapers I wouldn’t worry. L went 5 days not gaining any weight and I was keep of trying not to let myself freak out (3 doc appts) then the next week bam 6 oz!

My efforts in Easter clothes has been pretty minimal. I bought G some clothes for spring and she will wear that and I bought the baby a onesie that says Hoppy Easter. 🤷🏻‍♀️

After DH and I trying all morning to get through, we finally have DS signed up for swimming lessons for next session. He finally passed his sunfish level on the third try .

I also signed up for an 8 week stroller bootcamp class which starts after Easter. I'm excited to get moving and try to gain some strength back!

I haven't bought anything for Easter for either kid. DS has tonnes of button ups and jeans, and I'm getting a cart filled on children's place with khaki joggers. DD has more clothes than you can shake a stick at, including two denim dresses and 4 shirts with bunnies on them. We will make due with what is already in the drawers.

Carters is having a good sale on pajamas right now

[jessijean]

DS2 was up every 2 hours last night. Oy! What are my chances I can get both boys to nap at the sane time this afternoon???

[yellow711]

marygracerich Enjoy the movie and your kid-free time!!!

sweetsurprise Hugs... I hope your first day of work goes by quickly!

[yellow711]

A friend of mine that I haven't seen in months asked if I wanted to go to dinner next week. YES YES YES!

I am so excited to get out of the house and have kid-free time with a friend.  YAY!
