kleigh she's been napping way better, but...last night?...I was on night 2 of attempting to watch the new beauty and the beast and by 10 she was on my lap on the couch watching it too. Tonight's a new night though. I've been going really well with shrugging it off lately, I just feel terrible for her. Yanno? I reeeeeally hope you're getting a repeat performance tonight. Yasssss girl. This is where I'm at. I'm so over even getting myself upset about it, it's just like girlfriend calm down I'm right here. Last night was in fact a repeat, surprise surprise! I kept waking up all night just waiting and expecting the wailing and I'd reach over and touch her and she was out cold. So I'm chalking ours up to a week of separation anxiety processing(?). I can't say it was teeth bc (a) one night I gave her Tylenol thinking it could've been but she still did it anyway and (b) no teeth have come through and now she seems fine. The only difference in the past two nights was I let her take a late nap at 5/5:30-6 and instead put her down for bed at 8. She had been going to bed at 6/6:30. Who the heck knows. Every time I think I have it figured out it changes and regresses, I'll take my two nights and be on my merry way. Yessss!!!!! Go AV!! I hope that new nap and later bedtime is the magic ticket. Oh gosh, wouldn't that just be fantastic? Last night sucked. Sucked. Sucked. Sucked. The bull in the China shop that I married accidentally woke M up at 10:20.....and she didn't go back to sleep until 3:08. Three MF oh eight. I was so frustrated. So many tears. Finally around 1:45 H asked me if I had given her any Motrin because she kept biting him and then crying. She doesn't cry much when I hold her so teething pain didn't even cross my mind. Even though I'm living in teething hell. I just thought she was crying when I put her down because she was over tired and wanted to be comforted. Dose of Motrin and some teething oil and 45 minutes later she was down for the count. I feel like queen of the idiots. I was frustrated 30 minutes into the wake up, whyyyyy didn't pain cross my mind then instead of having my H think of it 3.5 hours later.

tgrimes I am not surprised. vino is one of the most amazing and thoughtful people I've ever "met". I should let everyone know that even with a brand new baby she took the time to come up with a ton of names and ideas of foods and cheeses for me to eat when I started the MSPI diet and didn't know what I was doing. She even went out of her way to ask someone she knew for advice. Thats next level wonderful right there.

I came out to the living room and used the back massager while online shopping. I think I went to bed around 3:30 and then MH kept snoring. I've done more shopping between the hours of 11 and 4 in the last seven months than I should admit to. PayPal is a blessing and a curse.

In all seriousness, thanks for the kind words. Now that I know I can smuggle Kinders across the border, KINDERS FOR EVERYONE!

FFSC vino (and danib) I've been in canada 8 yrs and have never had a kinder egg Oh I don't eat them at all, the chocolate isn't that great but all kids love the toys inside. I've also been to casual friends dinner parties and they put an egg in everyones wine glass at the table, it's a good ice breaker for conversation.

I like Kinder Eggs. They are c's favourite treat, but mostly for the toy inside. Usually he will eat half of it and I'll eat the other half lol. Definitely not the best chocolate I've ever had, but I won't let it go to waste lol.
Also, Hi. I've been Yard Sale-ing all weekend. This is pretty much the first time I've relaxed, and I'm ready to pass out. Between running around, packing/unpacking boxes, and being out in the sun, I'm toast.

dashook how did you introduce eggs? Scrambled or whatnot? I cannot remember what I did for B, other than peanut butter.

Hey!
I'm finally checking in. We worked in the yard all day. I pulled so.many.fucking.weeds. then I tilled the old garden beds that we tore up. We moved some dirt around and also did a dump run. The yard is still a mess but it's getting better! I'm about to jump on the shower and then we have to go to the grocery store. I still have a shit of laundry to fold, too.
I can't wait until this yard stuff is over and I can go back to being lazy on the weekends.

As predicted, I can officially claim to have a crawler now!! She kept crawling after her brother all day; so I guess she doesn't mind him jumping on her and hitting her too much!

dashook how did you introduce eggs? Scrambled or whatnot? I cannot remember what I did for B, other than peanut butter. I've read that 6-minute egg yolks are the way to go, but today I just fried them gently in the pan with coconut oil. They were just cooked through but still soft.
