It’s Muffins with Mom this morning in M’s class and then I’ll be taking H to his 18mo appt.
Hopefully I’ll make it in to work before noon.

Morning, all! The big one heads to Europe for his senior trip this morning. I'm letting him sleep in since he won't get a good night's sleep until tomorrow night.
I got my BOGO at chipotle yesterday for teacher appreciation day. I'd never been before, but I'm definitely going back! Delish.
Nothing much planned for the rest of the day. The house needs a good cleaning, so I've got to get that done.

Morning! My parents are stopping by on there way to Norway, so we went grocery shopping this morning. Ds and I went swimming while dd was napping, I love spending one on one time with the kids. I wish we had a big back yard and I’d never have to work again, it is so nice for the kids to just roam around for a bit!

Good Morning! I am up early. We had a thunderstorm and all the babies came and jumped into bed with me. I got up and drove my oldest to the bus stop, because I'm a softie.
Yesterday was crazy, but fun, with my aunt here. Luckily, the kids were fairly well behaved. She was surprised that they all put dishes in the sink, brush thier teeth, line up for jammies, etc. She said "These kids are so much smarter! You and your sister would never do all this when you were little...I had to drag you into the bathroom and to bed". So, I guess my kids are smarter than I was, but I prefer to think it's just lots of repetition of the routine, thank you very much.

We started the day with a meltdown down, but I'm vowing to stay more positive. It's much easier for me to lean into the skid of the chaos than fight against it.

Good morning. We have stage rehearsal after school today for B’s upcoming recital. And C has MyGym so it seems both my and I will be taking each kid separately and doing our own thing. I also need to get some gift cards for the teachers.

Good morning and Happy Birthday vino! I hope you have a great day! Just my usual, waiting for the tile guy, he said he'd be here at 8 today. I realized when I went to bed last night, that I never confirmed if the hardwood guy was still going to be here today or not. So I'll be calling the contractors first thing this morning. My boss said it's fine for me to WFH again tomorrow since this has been a cluster. How is H this morning tgrimes? Still fluid coming out the other ear?

Morning! Just finishing breakfast then daycare and work. I have a girls night planned tonight which I much needed!
Anyone else have/had a biter at daycare? H bit his friends 2 day in a row at daycare and i don’t know how to handle it. I keep talking to him about it and he says “okay” but obviously doesn’t get it. One bite was unprompted and the other was when a friend took something from him. He has never bitten at home. Any tips?

mwhip Reno’s suck big time, it’s basically one big series of annoyances, let down, waits and extra money, with hopefully something pretty at the finish line!

slenle after the biting occurs, does he go to time out? Evie really only ever bit me, but when her behavior was bad at DC, I know she got put in TO and it helped her learn that there were reprecussions to her actions. I don't know that talking to them so much later about it really gets the point across. The behavior needs to be corrected as soon as it happens. Said by the person whose kid is an asshole most of the time and wanted a new mommy early this week, one who would let her do whatever she wanted.

It’s Muffins with Mom this morning in M’s class and then I’ll be taking H to his 18mo appt. Hopefully I’ll make it in to work before noon. Colin's class is doing the same on Friday. I'm pretty sure Col is more excited about muffins than the Mom part, but he did promise me a big hug, so I'll take it. Also on a random note, "wakka wakka, Chasey Chuckles" is frequently repeated in our house.

mwhip There was thick stuff coming out of the other ear this morning. Not sure if they’re infected or not though since it’s not continuous.

Morning! I woke up to a cranky toddler. I hope her attitude changes so I don’t have to deal with this all day. It’s going to be nice out today so we’ll probably spend most of our day outside. DH has softball tonight so I’m solo parenting all day. Happy birthday vino!

Morning!! I am in a great mood today because it's beautiful today and I went for my first post-race run this morning. It didn't feel completely foreign, which is just more proof that I left a lot on the course, physically. I already knew it was my mental game that got in my way on Sunday so if anything, this leaves me feeling kind of excited to see what I can do in the fall after a long training cycle and with less jitters and doubts.
Anyhow everyone woke up in a good mood this morning. I'm so excited to watch Colin and Chase interact and play together now that Chase is able talk and sort of follow along. They crack me up, trying to out-goof each other.

Mh is "jamming" at a friends house after work tonight. I didn't realize it wouldn't be until after we went to bed that he would be home. Meh, whatever, not like it matters. He is also going out to another friend's lakehouse for the weekend as well. Friday thru Sunday. Cadence and I were supposed to go to an amusement park this Sunday with my mom and cousin, but my cousin is now in jail (long story), her kids are being taken away, and we aren't going because we don't want Cadence to be by herself. We rescheduled for a different weekend when my niece can come. I'm baffled by my cousin's situation. I wish I could elaborate, but internet and legality and all. It's just a sad situation for her kids.
unnecessary, but PDQ.

Good morning! I'm waiting for haircuts for T and I. C was asleep but now woke up so we will see how this goes. We already did a Target run. Tonight is crazy, gymnastics, soccer, baseball, and PTO. I was asked to chair a pto committee and said sure, not knowing there was someone who wanted the job really badly. Some people fear she's going to flip tonight, I don't think she will show up. I may bring popcorn for everyone.

mwhip, yes he has gone to time out both times. His teacher said he wasn’t happy about it so i was hopeful he wouldn’t do it again, but he’s a little sh*t so...
