Olivia has been up since 530 pm. Why won't she go to sleep? I'm falling asleep putting her to bed. Omg.

Hi! I took advantage of all the sleep I got big time. I went to work. It was my first day back. There is a lot that I have to catch up on but I am sure I will be able to get caught up in a week or two. After I got out of work I stopped at my dads for a bit to help him with his echo dot. Then we went to dinner, BRU and TRU. We bought a few things but plan on going back in a week or two when the discounts are better.

I drove 6 hours roundtrip alone with my girls to see my grandma. I am so glad I did. She was so happy and it gives me all the feels 😭😭 Here is her meeting her 14th great grandbaby, my baby J

Happy Saturday!
We’re having such nice weather for the next bit. It’s SO nice to be able to spend a lot of time outdoors again with my overactive toddler!
M is a rolling machine lately! He’s now figured out he can roll to get out of tummy time almost immediately and just is constantly rolling into his side to look at things.
Went out for dinner tonight with my grandparents so they could meet M for the first time. Hopefully we can make it up to visit them this summer too. It also gives me all the feels
Hope everyone gets some good sleep tonight

I’m dying over the confessions on the deneral discussions board. Please tell me you all knew that the yellow flower weed and a white ‘blow flower’ were both dandelions. I’m baffled that this was not known. 😂

My favorite dumb confession I have is that I thought hamster had a p in it until a few years ago.
Hampster.

Sounds like I need to go read the confessions for a good laugh!
Considering that Olivia didn't go to bed until 10, our sleep was okay - up at 130 and 430. However, I think she's about to actually go through a growth spurt because, holy boobs. All day even after she's eaten they've been pretty full. Since she usually wakes up at least 3 times to eat a full "meal", I had to pump one side this morning, I got a good 4 ounces out of it.
Otherwise she's been pretty okay today, a little fussy, but she took a two and some hour nap this morning too.
My IL visit was nice, they entertained Emma a lot, otherwise O slept most of the time they were here. We made lunch and dinner for them - lunch was grilled chicken and pasta salad (but like, a nice, warm Ina Garten one that takes effort) and dinner was pork medallions, mac and cheese and sauteed squash/zucchini. I like to cook so I didn't mind at all. While O was napping and I was taking a break from school work I even threw an angel food cake in the oven (because box mix) and yay.
I decided yesterday that I'm going to start to dairy-free for BF to see if that helps our reflux issues, because that's why she's not sleeping well and is so fussy. It can't hurt anyone, so I will be asking all the things. Bonus: I checked the angel food cake mix box and it only said "may contain" milk! I'll take it for now. We did a small splash of milk in the french toast this morning and after that, I'm done with the dairy for the next few weeks while we see if it changes anything.
I'm working on papers for school now. Liv is napping in the swing. MH is making lunch for DD1 and then she is going to take a nap. I'm just hoping for an easy day. Despite the decent sleep I got not being woken up every 30 minutes, I'm still pretty groggy, sleepy, foggy, all those things, and I'm about at the end of my rope today already. I could use a good day at the beach.

We took G bowling. She had a good time. She was melting down about taking turns at first but after she had a snack, she felt better and was having fun with it. The baby slept through most of it.
Now G is napping, MH is downstairs with the baby and I am laying in bed. Every window in my house is open and it’s glorious.

Yard update: That was a fast melt and it’s so so glorious! After 6 full months of snow on the ground the fact it almost all disappeared in 3 days it actually looks so weird to look outside lol! It’s windy as balls today and DS was still running around yelling “IT’S SUCH A NICE DAAAAAY!” We went to church this morning, and this afternoon are setting up our new BBQ and bringing the patio furniture back out! I even got brave enough to wash and store our winter coats/pants yesterday so we are calling it!

I’m baffled that this was not known. 😂 I knew that because my dad used to get annoyed with us when we blew on the seed dandelions because, as he pointed out, we were basically spreading weeds all over the lawn... but we just thought it was fun 😛

It is an anniversary miracle. 1) The kids gifted us with both napping at the same time. 2) J is napping IN his crib.
Happy Anniversary to me :-)

sunfrogger are you doing dairy and soy free or just dairy? I had to do this with DD but haven't had to do it (yet) with DS. I found going soy free much harder (it seems to be in everything!). I found a lot of recipes on Pinterest and still use a lot of them.

Baby has been awake for a total of 5 hours tops since 8:15pm last night. It’s 5:20pm. I really hope she’s just sleepy and isn’t planning to be awake a ton tonight. 😬

The kids are in bed & im drinking wine while watching the finale of the Great British Baking show! We had a fun day today...church in the morning (I decided to go at 8:45, our service starts at 9:30 and we got there at 9:35 so WIN!!), brunch with my BFF after & then grocery pickup before dinner. Tomorrow we have a play date with another mom in the squadron! She has 3 girls, 5yo, 2yo, and a 2.5 month old. We had three babies born in Jan/Feb in our squadron this year, it was really fun to be pregnant with all of them! So I’m excited for that!

It was good. We went to see the movie "I Feel Pretty" and then to our favorite steakhouse. The food was amazing and the wine was good. We needed that night out.

Weather was nice here this weekend. Really changes everything. Both boys seem to have a cold. 👎 on the heels of DS2s stomach virus no less. I can’t wash my hands with anymore frequency.
In better news, we had our first laughs and consistent rolling tummy to back. She’s also moving in a circle, like doing a 360. I’m terrified someone (not me) we will leave her on a bed or couch or something unattended. Something new for me to obsessively instruct s out.

Being the youngest baby here it's so crazy to see all the things you guys post about. I'm so excited for O to be fun and not a lump!!
We have little gab sessions right now where she tries to talk to me. I love it so much!
Dream feeding O right now and then off to bed. My grade in finance is an 87. I'm flirting with a B but I'm hoping really badly to squeak by with an A!!!!! The work for this week looks like it shouldn't be too terribly hard to ace. Fxfxfxfx. A 4.0 is my dream... Maybe driven by the fact that my sister got her undergrad here and graduated with a 4.0 😅
