flamingo , I think we will have to move B out of the crib long before we moved S. He never tried to climb out and we moved him at 3 b/c he just seemed so big for it. He would probably still sleep in a crib if we let him... B, on the other hand, already tries to step on his animals to get higher and he leans over the edge. He's much more adventurous than S was at that age. Same with our kids, almost exactly. B climbed out once or twice shortly around 2, but it was like once he figured out he could do it, he was happy and didn't do it again. We moved him to a new room/bed at 2 1/2, partly in preparation for C's arrival and partly b/c he had about outgrown the crib lengthwise, ha. C is already doing what your B is doing, and I think once she figures it out, it will be a constant battle to keep her in.

I'm dorry Could some of the funk you have been feeling be related to this? I imagine it would be a really difficult transition, even if you are relieved to be rid of the responsibility. I know when big emotional events are happening in my life, it leaks out all kinds of sideways sometimes. Hugs Lady. More than likely. I'm sorry. You are one tough lady, but we are here if you need us. That's a lot for one person to carry.

Update to t-ball coach drama: a board member is coming to *our* team's practice tonight to talk to parents/coaches about what they witnessed with the crazy lady last night.
I'm glad someone reported her and they're taking steps to hopefully get her out of coaching.

Not crazy at all flamingo , i’m already thinking about J’s room for next year, along with no high chair, potty training, and getting the toys out of the living room. It’ll be like a whole new house! Omg, I can't wait to ditch the high chair. We put it away for the dinner party a couple weeks back and it was SO nice. I've been trying to remember when we moved B to the booster. When it's just the kids I let them eat at their little table/chair set, so maybe it's time to test C in a booster and see how she does? Charlie goes back-and-forth from a real chai to the high chair. I'm pretty sure I could put the high chair away at this point, but sometimes I like the fact that he wants to stay strapped in.

Bittersweet, @klongoria. What a day you're having. I hope you're able to take some time to rest and process all of it soon.

Will you put two twin beds in her room, flamingo? I've always been curious about that look/idea since the Cosby show since Theo had two twin beds.

trtlcrzy!! I need you! And any other gardeners we have! I don't know what is weed and what's just pretty greenery. Our lawn guy walked me around the property and tried to tell me what was what, but I only remember that we have a lilac tree and peonies ( a peony bush? A plant? I don't remember) because I think they're both pretty. The only thing I've been successful with the last few days are the hydrangeas. I cut them down to the new buds and got rid of any stalks (?) that were dead. They're already blooming very nicely, but I think they would've done that on their own anyway.

I'll probably put her current (low) bookcase b/n the beds and use that as the nightstand with her current dresser while we're in this house. Then once we move I'll order a new nightstand/chest and dresser based on the size and layout of her room in the new house. I love the look of twin beds, but never had them myself. She'll probably outgrow them length-wise at some point (I am too tall for a twin or full) but I think they'll be great while she's young

Send me some pics on SC and I can see what I can identify. Some of it may be too early to tell still. ETA or you could make a thread with pics too

Anyone's N13 have night sweats? Cadence sweats like crazy and I'm trying to find a lightweight blanket that she can use that won't make her so hot. Right now she just uses a sheet, but then she gets too cold in the middle of the night and comes to my room. So, I need something in between a thin sheet and a regular blanket.

B has been having night sweats for a while and I thought it’s because of the mono, iron deficiency then supplements but I was going to post it here. So yes, same thing here. He has full pyjamas and insists on wearing socks, I ‘swaddle’ him in a A&A dream blanket for the night ( it’s his thing) I’ve tried different variations of blankets but he sweats no matter what, so 🤷♀️

Both of H's ears have so much puss in them that the pedi couldn't see his eardrums. He gave me a prescription for cefdinir since we just finished augmentin on Saturday & told me to start him on Flonase. I'm waiting to hear back from the ENT on trying different antibiotic drops for his ears and seeing if we can move up his surgery to next week.
So his eardrum did rupture.
FML.

klong11 I'm sure you're having an influx of emotions right now about selling the house. Maybe you need a little vacation or some me time.

I don't let him sleep in socks, but he'll often beg to sleep in long sleeve PJ's even when it's warm. And I try to take his big comforter off and he gets mad and says he likes it. He sweats, but he still sleeps through, so I just ignore it.

Jesus tgrimes. That's terrible, that poor kiddo! I hope they move it up. I mean... if he's not an emergent case, than who is?!? I really hope that the surgery does wonders for him and you guys don't have to go through this again!

I skipped out of work at noon today and went and got my hair did. I had 4 inches cut, long layers added, and thinned out tremendously! My head feels so much lighter. Lol.
Now I’m headed to look at shoes for the wedding this weekend.

tgrimes dang. Poor kid. I hope his ears finally clear up soon. klong11, big hugs. I'm glad the stress of working on the house is behind you, but it can be so hard to let go. And sending positive thoughts to the situation with your cousin's kids. Regarding night sweats was it here I read the study about wearing socks in bed leading to getting overheated? Somewhere I recently read no socks to bed. Maddie gets ridiculously hot at night so she just sleeps in her underwear. This time of year she usually uses a very lightweight thermal baby blanket at night and sometimes has the ceiling fan on.
