I also apparently can’t spell Thursday. 🤦🏻♀️ I’m drinking a hot coffee while pumping and waiting for my boss to get out of a meeting so we can go over the project I’m working on. I cannot believe some babies are already on their 6th tooth CoachTsWife whilst we remain toothless |

rebeccabunch how are you feeling today? I felt run down since baby was born with all the illness and having to take care of everyone. I’m finally feeling almost back to myself, still coughing though 😒 but compared to a month ago I feel I can run a marathon now

DD2 is running around in the walker all over our wood floors. She gets the occasional “push” from DD1 which illicts a “be careful - gentle!” from H or me and a very loud laugh from DD2.
I’m about to put DD1 down for a nap and then heading off to a haircut! I’m so excited for some alone time. I want to do something with my hair but I don’t know what yet. I think I’ll mention it today and see what she suggests, look at some stuff before the next appt and then maybe try something at the end of summer.

Also, DD2 could eat her weight in puffs if we let her. Seriously. Girl tries to shove them in by the handful and I am super guilty of just throwing a handful on her walker tray to buy me time to cook or clean or whatever. She’s cutting her 2 top teeth and we have had a lot of togetherness lately. Puffs seems to be her other love in life besides mom.

DS was up a lot last night randomly. His two bottom teeth cut through last week and it doesn’t look like anything else is trying so I don’t think it’s teeth? Either way he is taking a nice long nap right now, DD is having a play date at my ILs so I am sitting in the blissful quiet with coffee.

Today and tomorrow are preschool grad at my work so we are going to that both afternoons. I’m setting DS up in his playpen in a therapy room to nap and bringing the monitor. Fingers crossed he actually naps when I need him to!

I hope not because it's the only way I can get stuff done anymore! lol |

I had some Jehovah's witnesses stop by this morning. I'm certainly not going to convert, but i enjoy their visits to break up the day. I was informed that DS2 is much too pretty to be a boy. I don't think it works that way. Both my boys are much prettier than i am

Has anyone used probiotic drops/recommend a brand? I’ll have to pick some up this evening for this poor baby. The antibiotic is causing some major diaper rash. Little guy can’t catch a break.
A storm blew in early this morning and woke everyone up around 3am. It uprooted a tree in the backyard. Now the lack of sleep is hitting me and I need a nap.
In other news, my previous employer asked me to come back temporarily again. So we are doing that same ol’ song and dance.

I should probably just save it as a confession for tomorrow how quickly we can go through a can of puffs here. 😬 Today is by the far the quickest because we are packing for a quick trip to my parents but, yea - puffs are consumed here. Sometimes as a meal with nursing 😬 |

I do not understand why kids like puffs. Have you tried them? They taste like nothing! But when DS is eating them DD begs for some too, and she could have a different better snack but still wants puffs! Kids are weird

curmudgeon we use Klaire Labs Therbiotic infant formula. It is highly recommended but harder to use as it is a powder. Our DCP adds it to his warmed breastmilk. Sorry about your tree! I love trees and hate when they are damaged.

I tried to find the same for DS2 but our target rearranged and only had “healthy” kale puffs. I bought them but did not eat them. They stunk. |

Also, probiotics are expensive AF. I just went to our local pharmacy and asked the pharmacist for infant drops. $30 for the smallest bottle. This shit better help!
Also stocked up on yogurt, applesauce, bananas, and cottage cheese. Hoping something will help during the 10 days of this antibiotic.

I eat Evs puffs, I call it the mom tax. Three blueberry puffs for the baby, one for me. I don't care for the Gerber puffs (E has 0 preference) but the Beechnut ones are tasty. Theres some organic version I was going to try but they were like $4 a bottle.

The BioGaia probiotic drops are what seem to help DS's spit-up immensely. $27/bottle that lasts a month tops.  But, it works so I'll pay it! |

I may or may not have been know to eat a handful of blueberry or vanilla puffs as a snack. Low calories and all...
