I went to bed a little early and DH did the midnight dream feed and Faith decided to sleep all night! Praise the Lord! I feel so much better this morning without getting up 1,000 times to put in a pacifier.
We have no plans this weekend other than going to church and probably out to eat one evening, but I'm looking forward to not having to work. I've put in some extra hours this week to stay on schedule with some projects and after a week of vacation I'm just not in the mood.

Good morning! I got up waaaay to early because MH was super noisy. Nothing quite like waking up at 4 for no reason. He then was so noisy he woke the baby which required me to get up and soothe him quickly. Thankfully he did fall back to sleep. I was going to drag both of the kiddos to the grocery store with me but I was dreading it. So I called my stepmom and she is going to watch them for me. So yay! MH feels bad that he woke me up this morning so he is offering to order Chinese food for dinner so I don’t have to cook.

He accidentally slammed the closet door which is literally right below the baby. I woke up initially from his alarm. Then as I was dozing off the slamming of the door woke me up.

DD1 woke up at 6:30 and asked for some water. She choked on it then wanted more and proceeded to projectile vomit water all over me and the bed. It looked like the vomit scene on Poltergiest. I hope it was just because she choked and not that she's getting sick.
DD1 turns 3 on Monday so we are having a low key cookout with friends on saturday night. I was planning to make a lot of the stuff but since our house is on the market I don't really want to dirty up the house so I'm being lazy and ordering some sides and a fruit tray today. Luckily we have 1/2 days on fridays so I can try to get organized and get some decorations and plates and stuff tomorrow. I also scheduled my first post partum massage for tomorrow afternoon that I can't wait for.

That isn't as bad as I was imagining, but I would still be super annoyed. Sleep is precious for all of us these days.

The appraiser was out to look at my car this morning. It’s probably only going to need a new exhaust system and repair to the bumper. I was so worried that there would be damage to the frame even though it doesn’t look too bad.
I now just have to find the time to get a new car seat. I wish it didn’t have to be a similar model or I’d totally move him up to a convertible seat. I guess I’ll be buying one of those in a few months.

DS1 turns 3 today. I have all the feels and watched the clock as it hit the very minute he was born. He's being spoiled with a lot of sugar today!
I am delivering happy meals for the kids at daycare (a whole 5 kids) with cupcakes for lunch. And lots of party prep for our birthday/baptism combo party on Sunday.

J is really starting to learn he has a voice and a mouth. I am loving all the raspberries/bubbles he is making and all the "talking" he is doing. I am not loving all the grunting he has learned he can do! He will grunt when he is happy or angry or grumpy or anything!

sarahh enjoy! jessijean happy 3rd Bday! Today is my Friday! So looking forward to a long weekend at the lake with the kids and my mom. H had his V consultation appointment yesterday. Of course they called back today trying to re schedule the procedure next week. Which has been scheduled for over 4 months. So annoying trying to secure time off, a different babysitting schedule and other things which now might be for nothing. They are going to try and figure something out. I am most looking forward to an adult root beer float tonight.

I'm so excited, I just got word that I'm getting a 3.75% raise that is retroactive to Jan 1! Woohoo!!! This is the highest raise I've EVER gotten while with this company, it is typically 2.0 or sometimes 2.5%...

We're all packed into the car and on the road for a 4hrs road trip. DS has been happily playing Lego's on his new tray table for an hour and a half, and DD has been sleeping. Vacation is off to a great start!

This week does seem to be lasting forever. DH has moved To 4 day work schedule, and now has Thursday off every week. So he has been in charge of the three older ones all morning while baby and I went to a weight this morning.
6 months today and she weighed in at 12lbs 2oz. I asked the nurse if she was completely off the growth chart, to which she responded “you’ll have to discuss that with your pediatrician”. I’m gonna take that as a yes. Lol. They have previously told me her percentiles. Well check on Tuesday. We shall see.

Ask if you can upgrade the carseat to a convertible and just pay the difference?

dragonflyinn, my DD was screaming at the avocado I put on her high chair tray tonight like it had just bit her. She wouldn't even touch it and she is grabbing for EVERYTHING. What is so offensive about avocado???

Hi! Kiddos are in bed. G is still up but she is in bed. MH and I are having Chinese food and watching a comedy special. Not a bad way to spend my evening.

Today was a good day (besides being boiling), we did some exploring in the new neighborhood and figuring out where all the paths lead which was fun. Big had a grand ole time and we found another park in walking distance. If it wasn’t soo expensive in the PMW I would never leave, 5 different parks in walking distance yes please. Little is sleeping and h is putting the big to sleep while I watch Dawson’s creek. I was very excited to see it pop up on amazon! Damn little is up again. Off I go
