Morning! Today is Sierra’s babysitter’s wedding. S is the flower girl. The rehearsal was last night. It wasn’t very organized. And the poor bride was stressed and not speaking up when she needed to. Hopefully things go smoothly today and S cooperates and does a good job!
We have to be there at 1:30 for hair. Pics at 3, wedding at 6. I’m going to try to get her down for a very early nap at 10:30. She usually naps 1-3. Pray for me. And did I mention MH won’t be there because he’s on a plane to DC right now for National Police Week. So I will be chasing her around by myself all day.

lfig sounds fun! Any chance they can do S hair last so you can be a little late?

She is the last. So that’s good. But I feel like there will be some down time. So the iPad is coming along for sure!

Morning! lfig I hope you will share some pics, I’m sure she’ll do great and look beautiful! Fingers crossed for an early nap 😬 DH and B are headed out for tball team pics; there’s a game at 10 that C and I will join them for. My H has a flight scheduled for this afternoon but otherwise no big plans. I’ll probably take the kids to Target, we need to get a couple gift cards for B’s teachers.

Rainy Saturday here. I'm just leaving for my grandmothers funeral. They did the eulogies at the funeral home last night when it was just family and it really brought up such wonderful memories of when we were a little and all much closer.

Morning. DH is at work this morning, which is annoying but at least he’s getting paid double time. I work this afternoon and DH is taking the girls to a birthday party. mwhip did I miss the update? Did the guy finish tiling yesterday?

As usual I'm up early so I think I'll do the 5k. The only question is will my children cooperate. They'd hang out with my mom and check out the kid's activities while I run then there'd be a kid's race afterward.

trtlcrzy you didn't miss an update, yesterday was so busy being back in the office. Yesterday was a total shit show for H being home. The tile guy tried to leave early, told H he would be back the end of the month to finish the job. H told him to go make some phone calls and see who could be here Monday to finish. The guy came back in and said he'd finish the job...he was here til after 7. The hardwood guy came and pulled the tile in our entry ways up, and found the subfloor at our front door was rotten, so he couldn't finish. This was that area yesterday. H and my step dad were able to get new sub floor in so the guy can come back Monday and finish.

The carpet people showed up right at 8. So they're at least on time. But I was told there would be 2 crews to knock it out quick...there is one crew of 3 people.

mwhip That tile installer is an idiot. Why would he try to leave early 2 days in a row and expect someone to wait 3 more weeks for their job to be complete? I would definitely leave a bad review on him. That sucks about the subfloor, hopefully this is the last hiccup.

Happy Weekend! Who would have thought I would get the best sleep I had since before C last night? C slept 9-6:30. It's raining right now so the kids are playing too many video games. DD has soccer, DS1 has hockey, and my oldest nephew has baseball, all at the same time later. I'm winning because I get to go to hockey and it's indoors (or losing because I get all the younger kids.) H is currently helping a friend fix some stuff at his house. Our good friends used to live down the street and moved like 4 years ago. They have been renting out the house but their tenants were leaving so they decided to sell. My friend was looking for a house so I set them up (she actually lived there when they first rented it and she was getting divorced). She's moving in next week with her boyfriend . It's all so crazy, her ex husband's wedding was the one in California when C happened. He's moving to Cali next month. We have stayed close with both of them and I'm so excited to have her nearby. lfig my sister and BIL are also in DC for the Unity Tour, hence my 7 kids.

I would definitely leave a bad review on him. That sucks about the subfloor, hopefully this is the last hiccup. He does great work, but his work ethic is shit. I mean, he worked 3 1/2 hours Thursday, then didn't want to finish Friday. Work a full day and yesterday would have been quick. I don't get it.

We had Tball this morning. It was 50degrees and drizzling. C had fun but said he doesn’t want to go again because his hands were too cold. If it’s ever that cold again I’ll bring him gloves. His hands were icicles. He looks so cute in his uniform. And I love that he insists on his hat being backwards or sideways. Karma is also coming back to me for calling out sick when I wasn’t on Thursday and now I feel like I got hit by a truck. So I’m going to read and nap most of the day. We may go see the Avengers later. Or I may encourage them to go without me.

mwhip that's so not okay. What was the agreed upon timeline? You should make sure that they compensate you for anything not done on schedule.

Not sure what we are doing today. It all depends on what's wrong with C's car. If it's just the battery I will have a car. If it's more then that then I will be without a car. I wanted him to go get it tested right at 700 but he wants to sleep in one more hour...

We were told 2 days for the tile/backsplash install, he should have been working Monday and Tuesday, but missed Monday because his van broke down and was told it was 1 bathroom and backslplash, when it was 3 bathrooms and backsplash. The entire process has been a shit show.

Morning time. Just went to a spin class and I loved this teacher and got a much needed good workout. Js school and soon N's has a fundraiser party this evening, so that hopefully will be a good time and thankfully indoors - high of 92 here! I'm going to make us swing by 2 open houses on the way.
Oh and I got into the masters program...it starts next Monday 😬. I may ask if I can start the second summer session since June is a bit of a cluster already.
Now time for some speed cleaning! Have a good Saturday all!

Btdt 2nd time moms possible tmi. Question about milk supply. Last time my right boob produced more milk then the left. Last night my right boob already leaked. Did you notice your supply in each boob was consistent or did it change with each pregnancy?

Thinking of you today gusterCongrats tallbchrisy01 I think my supply was about the same the 2nd time as it was the first. I leaked longer the 2nd time though. I’ve heard that leaking before giving birth isn’t an indicator of supply though.
