Tomorrow is the boys' combined birthday party and baptism. Ii'm stressed but need to keep in mind, it's just family, they won't judge me if I forget something.
Last night's sleep was a shit show. I had a hard time falling asleep and then I lost count of how many wake ups we had. Pretty sure those top teeth are pushing through. Il keep tylenol close by today. He needs a chill day with all the activity coming tomorrow.

Today is DHs aunts wedding. DS is in the wedding, and is so excited to wear his purple bowtie and suspenders.
We're going to hit the pool shortly to have some fun before lunch, and then relax/nap before getting ready for the wedding at 430.

We’re letting DD1 have three friends spend the night tonight. Oy. I decided though, one bigger sleepover this summer could maybe stifle mine million requests for sleepovers.
Until then I think just mostly doing chores around the house. I’ve been trying to baby my foot while walking around because a portion of my arch has eczema on it and it freaking hurts. Naturally, now I’ve injured a tendon in my ankle from walking weird so really I probably won’t be doing a lot today. I feel so dumb for being so dysfunctional from what seems like a minor thing, but when walking hurts it’s hard to be productive!

Good morning! Both boys are up and I am having coffee and a donut! I really want to find the boxes with my clothes in then! We put all the boxes in the den on the first floor to avoid boxes being everywhere and I need H’s help finding my boxes. This weekend I want to tackle our closet, finish our bathroom, unpack big’s boxes, and organize the linen closet.

We just finished lunch and some fluffer nutter s'mores. Now DS and DH are playing outside while I cuddle DD to extend her nap a bit. We'll have to get ready for the wedding shortly. Our rental cottage is fantastic and I'm so glad we decided to stay for four days

Faith had a good night, only woke up once but she is getting/has another cold. So much snot... We were going to go to the pool today but too hot and crowded and Faith is a little cranky. Since we aren't members we have to pay per visit so not worth the hassle and cost when we could potentially only be there an hour. Last night I put this craft together and added Faith's footprint this morning when she was in a good mood. I had intended to use her hand prints but they kept coming out a smudgy mess. Her foot was much easier. I made three of these, one for us, and one for each set of grandparents. I love how the blue paper I used has a little sparkle and it looks like the sun reflecting off the water!

aprilz81 so adorable! I feel the same way about the pool. We did get a membership to ours though so we don't feel as bad just going for an hour.

Hiiiiiiiii.
I still feel pretty rough. This kind of muscle pain sucks. But I've been moving around all day so it's slowly going away.
DD1 fought her nap so that's just fun. MH is in a mood which I'm really annoyed with - I tapped him in last night bc I literally couldn't pick up O and he's all pissy bc he didn't get enough sleep. Um, dude, welcome to the club! I've been up since 330.
Just need to clean up the house before everyone comes over after Os dedication tomorrow. Once she wakes up from her nap I'm going to take pretty pics in the christening gown.. But she's thankfully napping again for me.

H woke up with a crusty eye yesterday. I kept an eye on it for the rest of the day and it never came back. Well, it’s back today and she’s been extra crabby so I took her in to the dr and she has pink eye AND an ear infection 😩 This is new territory. DD1 has never had an ear infection before.
Also, she weighs 18lb6oz. Porker baby!!

Hi! We have had a busy day. MH worked until 1 so I was home with the kiddos again. Then this afternoon we went to a beach event. It was fun and it wire them out. I wanted to stay for fireworks but the kids were not having it. Now I am laying on my couch by myself. MH is showering and both kids are in bed. I should be cleaning but nope. I’m enjoying the quiet hum of the AC and the fans in the kids rooms.

It is hot as a mother and I am trying my hardest not to murder my H. I have been busting his balls about helping me find my boxes and he decided he needed a nap instead. He acts like he was up a million times with the baby at night. He slept until 9 and is currently napping. Must be nice. I need to go get beer later bc I don’t think I am going to survive this heat without a cold one. Anyway I found my boxes but I know I will pay for it later when my back is hurting.

Today was DD1s 3rd birthday party so we ran around all day picking stuff up for that. I was worried we wouldn’t have a good turnout but we did so I’m happy. Both girls have been passed out since 8 so DH and I are enjoying some beers on the back porch.

We did swim lessons this morning and then had a surprise 50th birthday party to go to. Otherwise it's just been doing stuff around the house. Tomorrow we have a fire department chicken bbq in the morning and work to do in the afternoon. My birthday is tomorrow and DS1 keeps asking what we are doing and I told him nothing since I don't know when the bbq is going to be over and he's not happy with that answer and keeps telling H about it. He thinks they should have thrown me a party.

The worst we had was a leaky wet poop that dripped out into her Sit Me Up. I needed to do laundry anyway so I had DH rinse everything out while I gave her a bath and then sprayed everything with Dreft. It all came out thank goodness.

I'm in a super bad mood. Faith has been cranky all day with her cold (I don't blame her I get that way too) and I've been in charge of her 95% of the day. The only time DH took over was when I literally handed her over and said I needed a break. He is normally pretty good at helping out and stepping in but not today. I got nothing done that I wanted to do today, chores or fun...

The toddler just went in the baby’s room and woke her from a nap. The amount of rage coursing through me is insane. Sleep is sacred tiny human. Don’t screw with it.

Between both kids I was up literally all night. Longest stretch of sleep was 2 hours, shortest was 30 min. I’m wiped.

FYI Gymboree has up to 80% off all their summer clothes online today if anyone still needs summer stuff.
We tried baby rice cereal again today and he seemed to love it this time around. Excited to start more solids.

I was forced to bed productive this afternoon after finding our deep freezer door cracked open as we left for church. Food was still cold but not frozen. So after I got home I made two meatloafs, four pounds of spaghetti sauce with ground beef, one pound of taco seasoned ground beef, two pounds of unseasoned ground beef, marinated one pack of pork chops to be cooked tomorrow, another package of pork chops in the crock pot and we are having t-bone steaks for dinner. So much cooking. So much mess.

aprilz81 That sucks it was left open but damn that food sounds good! The baby has a cold and for the first time diarrhea. I’m all over google for what is normal. I’m so out of my league lol. I’ll probably call the most reasonable of my brothers (3 kids) and get his opinion.

I feel like more death today. My neck is all stiff now in addition to all the other muscles like. I'm running a low grade fever (100.1 and below). Liv seems OK, rash is gone. She was running a tad warm earlier (98.9 rectal). She's been fussy about not being with mama. Figures right before I'm off work for a week.

aprilz81 I kind of go with what they say about breast milk, if there is still any ice crystals the food can be re-frozen.

And hello! We are back from the cabin. It was good, but MIL was being kind of weird and it was mentally exhausting. Long story, but H agreed with me talking about it on the way home so it wasn’t just me getting annoyed. I have a good relationship with my ILs but she was driving me a bit batty this weekend lol.
Oh well! On to the next. Getting ready for camping on Wednesday through the weekend now, this time with my parents at another lake!
