Hi! I’m here. I’m exhausted. I have been up since 3:15 for no reason. I am also in pain from my hip. I must have slept on it wrong for the few hours I did sleep. I had a moment of insanity last night and decided I was going to do a toy purge and reorganize everything. I bought a new tv stand and switch some furniture. Now I am exhausted and in pain so I don’t want to do anything but I have to finish it.

Party's over, I'm exhausted. So glad things can go back to normal again.
MIL saved me bu being completely on baby duty yesterday.
But I could put a guy I was in youth group with passed away unexpectedly over the weekend so now trying to decide if I should go to the funeral. I was closer to his mom than him. I guess I'll see what day it is and go from there.

I will do it then since I can't do it when DD is around.

marygracerich, Now that our garage is (mostly) organized I want to do it to every room in the house, even the ones that aren't unorganized. I ordered some new end tables and a coffee table for our living room from Wayfair that should be delivered today. We currently have storage trunks that are 15 years old and I wanted something easier to handle. The wood on our current tables is covered by glass that has to be removed to open the trunk up. Now that I want toy/blanket/misc storage easily accessible this setup doesn't work. We will move those pieces to other rooms in the house... Faith slept through the night again, even with her cold, so I'm hoping we are finally turning a corner when it comes to sleep! I've had a scratchy throat all morning, I'm hoping it isn't Faith's cold, but with all the snot and drool I've been wiping up it probably is. Plus the whole sneezing and coughing in my face thing...

I'm waiting to hear back from the doctor if the baby needs to get checked out or not. He's had a cold for a week and a half which I wouldn't normally be concerned about but i can now actually feel the congestion in his chest when holding him and he had a fair amount of diarrhea yesterday. He's not allowed at daycare until that has been cleared up for 24 hours.
but check out how cute he was when trying solid food! PDQ I'll probably delete quickly

I’m back from my little mini vacay. It was much needed and I’m so glad MH could get away. We had so much fun. I sat in the water on the beach and drank wine, we explored the Sleeping Bear Dunes (this was my first time there), ate way too much food, and just enjoyed each other’s company. It was perfect! Here’s one of my favorite photos from the weekend.

marygracerich, I did a toy purge recently. It felt amazing to get rid of stuff that wasn’t getting played with. MH does not like to get rid of anything so I have to clean when he’s not around. I love de-cluttering. It cleanses my soul and suddenly I can breathe again!

So cute cake!! Looks gorgeous mrsp84!! marygracerich I also got the kids to help with a little toy purge between DD1 and DS’s birthdays since they are a month apart from June-July. With N’s birthday right after Christmas it’ll be a good excuse to make a point to do summer and Christmas purges.

N had her 6 month checkup and immunization today. She looked at my dr and let out a little yell when she poked her but no tears and was over it by the time she was putting the band aid on! At 28” that puts her in the 90th percentile for height and 17lbs 5oz makes 60th so I guess she’s tall and “skinny” (baby chub included haha). And she’s got like 3 days to get a tooth until she’s my latest teether! I guess she knows she’s our baby and we want the gummy smiles to last a little longer 😉
DS also had his 5 year checkup at the same time and all was well, and I also talked a bit more about my anxiety which has turned for the better immensely since I last talked to her about it.
And H had his V consultation with another doctor in the same clinic at the same time today, so some minor feels about that. He didn’t book the procedure yet though.

mrsp84, amazing! So glad you had a wonderful trip. I think the consensus was that we stay here, but I really wish we moved this group to Facebook. I am on there already all the time so I'd do better at staying active. I've been in MIA on here, and I miss y'all! I am SO enjoying life without medical treatments. Lots of play places, swimming, going to boot camp, etc. We also bought me a mini-van on Saturday! I'm sooooo excited, it's amazing. It's a 2016 Toyota Sienna XLE Premium with only 16k miles on it. DS1 is obsessed - he thinks it's the coolest thing.

But, this board seems to be dying down slowly anyway

I just... won’t follow to Facebook. I wish I knew how to keep it more lively around here but I’m so boring.

I don’t have Facebook so if you guys moved, I would not be a part of it. 🤷🏻♀️ I 100% refuse to have Facebook.

It is ALWAYS slow around here (or whatever version of the boards we are on) in the summer... As back to school gets closer activity will pick up.

I am on facebook a lot and am part of my other BMB group there but I feel like there is more talk here than facebook. I think our BMB gets like 2 posts a day with questions and that's it.

I know I'm late to the convo here. In my olders BMB we run a FB chat for chit chat.
I think the bonus to fb is that it gives notifications and I can't seem to get Tapa to do it right. So you know when convo is happening.
But also, I agree that summer makes it slower. We're all enjoying the kids in the nice weather! Can't fault that. That's where I've been 🤣

I wish TAT gave notifications. I feel like I can never participate in meaningful conversations because I only remember to check here once or twice a week. Facebook is more in your face.

I get notifications on tapa when I am mentioned or quoted. There is a way to get notifications for new posts in a thread, I just don’t know how to do it.

I guess I mean push notifications! I'm always mobile. I get push notifications. My phone makes noise 36384638383 times a day because I get notifications for likes, quotes and mentions and it’s almost always tapa. Next time I get one I will screen shot it and show you. The only thing I haven’t tried to get is notifications for new posts and that’s because I don’t need it
