Entering final grades this morning then starting summer course prep. I'm so excited for 3 week break from grading!!!! I need to catch up on some house work because my MIL is watching the boys tomorrow night and my house is so cluttered it looks really bad and has been driving me crazy.

Hi!
I’m checking in from the bathroom floor. G is in the tub, the baby is in the sit me up and I am sitting here drinking iced coffee. Isn’t my life glamorous?
Yesterday was G’s birthday and it was so busy and chaotic but fun. I was supposed to bathe the kiddos last night but I decided to put them to bed so my sister could watch them and I could go to the movies. My priorities are clearly straight.
Both kids have well visits at the dr this afternoon. I am excited to hear how big the baby has gotten but not looking forward to taking them both out.

I'm in full support of those priorities. I was sabatoged by my toddler. I went to pump in the car this morning and nothing turned on. I remembered that yesterday I found what looked like the top of a clock clicks pen and a small fuse in my toddlers hand. It was the tip of the pump adapter. So I had to pump when I got to work instead of working.

I am so proud of DD1. She was a flower girl yesterday and did a great job. We were a little worried after the morning was full of tantrums. But it ended up good and we got one of our first family pictures taken as a family of 4!   |

Happy Monday! DD2 started daycare today. I just called to get an update: she’s so smiley and happy and just perfect. 👍🏻 I am dragging big time today. I was so scared that I was going to sleep through my alarm so I kept waking up to check the time. 🙄
For those that are using the swaddle up, how in the world do you transition baby out of that? DD2 isn’t rolling just yet, but she will occasionally roll on her side so I know it’s just a matter of time. I just bought the transition swaddle up for $35 (😱) but I wasn’t sure if it was really worth it to buy?

I haven’t been around in a bit, last week was rough with some work issues and my grandmother passed away. I was never close to her but it was hard on my mom and aunt.
We’ve started having a problem with the baby taking a bottle from my husband. We’ve been doing bottles/formula since birth and this has just started in the last week or so. Since my husband is the one at home, sometimes H will go hours without eating and just scream when my husband tries to feed him. On the rare occasion it isn’t an issue. Any advice? It doesn’t seem to make a difference if I’m around or not.

We used to alternate the arm we left out each night (I used it with DD1) I think she was transitioned out by 5 months, when she started to make steps to crawl (she started crawling at 5.5mo). |

cake I'm so sorry for your loss. We just gave O her first bottle yesterday, so I have no advice. :/

My big is napping today!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Onto my next class. I don't even get a break between. KOKO I suppose. But it's leadership, so I'm really excited by it.
3 more weeks left at home.. Not sure how I feel even though my DD1 us driving me insane!

We’ve regularly started going back to church recently, and are wanting to baptize the kids this summer.
Not something we intentionally put off, just something we didn’t prioritize until recently we both really wanted to start going back and found the right church for us.
So naturally, I’ve been browsing cute outfits for all 3 in my spare/breastfeeding time. Lol, the important details, you know.

Hi! Quick check in for me. I have been busy all day.
We had the kids well check today.
The baby is 4mo and is 15lbs 7oz and 25 inches.
G is 3. She is 32lbs and 38inches.
Right now I’m getting the baby ready for bed. Then when MH heads home, I will go to work.

I couldn’t remember if you used the swaddle up or not! And holy cow, crawling at 5.5 mo?! That seems so early. My DD1 didn’t start crawling until almost 11 mo. I have a feeling DD2 is going to be an early crawler. She already tried pulling herself to sitting up when in the rock n play 😳. I just ordered the transition one so we’ll start that this week. Hopefully it goes ok. She’s doing naps in a sleep sack at daycare and they said she slept pretty well yesterday. So maybe this will be easier than I thought! 🤞🏻 |
