It's a lot more rainy here than I thought it was going to be so our plans for going to the zip line aren't going to be happening. Right now we are making a dog house out of a box and sticky notes. Whats on the agenda for you guys?

Just work :/ I'm applying to new jobs, so we'll see how that pans out. But here's a puppy picture! She's super dirty.  |

Hi Strangers. Still slammed at work. I haven't had a change to read the past several days' threads. My apologies for being distant. Please accept this picture of a kitten with champagne.  |

I had an eye drs appointment this afternoon so I took the morning off and got a pedi and now I'm having lunch by myself. Kids are in daycare. Totally living the life.

Hi friends! I've been trying to read and LT but I struggle with responding, I'm sorry. I find if I don't start of posting at the beginning of the day I am even less likely to chime in when I'm reading later.
Anyway hi! Dd and I are eating lunch and R is sleeping, it feels like a day that someone is always going to be awake so no double nap for me. Yesterday I somehow forgot to drink coffee and had a killer headache by the end of the day, I will not be making that mistake again.

I took advantage of the cooler weather and went to the arboretum again. I think we walked around 1.5 miles with all the toddler backtracking 😂. Ds stayed awake in the car on the return trip! So we had lunch and now he's napping on his regular schedule. I might have been singing Old MacDonald at the top of my lungs to keep him awake but it's worth it to avoid a crappy car nap.

Ds had a couple mini meltdowns this time. The great thing about going early is there's no one around at 9am. Plus a grumpy toddler doesn't sound nearly as bad when he's outside as opposed to inside.

So I've been up since 3:30. E has a tooth about to break through she was up screaming most of the night. I finally got her to sleep on the area rug in her room at around 5. So tired.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Oh man, that is rough! I found with DS that they got a little easier after the first couple so hopefully you won't get this for every tooth. How's pump weaning going? |

Hiiiiiiiii! I'm having a magical Thursday. The cleaning people come today, it's jeans day + department catered picnic at work, and everyone is released to go home after lunch "as their workload permits". So now I'm waiting for someone else to leave first and then I'm going to run alllllll the errands before daycare pickup. Hooray!
In less fun news, M has a pretty bad cold. Her cough is so sad and she's covered in green snot in the mornings. I hope this passes quickly! Also DS is totally guilty on this one - she got it 2 days after he did. Poor girl 😞

Sorry M is sick carrots! But I just realised DS hasn't been coughing the last couple days, finally! It was like 3 weeks. N is also in the screechy velociraptor stage. We called DS "raptor boy" at this age. So loud. She rolled once tummy to back but then couldn't repeat it. She'll get there. One of my male CWs caught me as I was going to pump, my bag on my shoulder. "Going to a meeting? I'll walk and talk" "Uhhh, yeah. Meeting " Awkward. At least he detoured at his office and didn't follow me to the pump room. |

Lakes, been there done that with the loud singing. Short car naps are the devil! thelittleredm, aw so precious! <3 Hang in there peaseblossom55! N has been consistently having blowouts daily at daycare. It's awful. We've sized up and tried 3 different brands and it doesn't seem to make a difference. All of his clothes are getting stained now too. Grr! I'm looking forward to the end of the day at work. I'm trying a new recipe at home, wine is calling my name, and I can't wait to go to sleep.

summergirl1211 can you sun the outfits? Put them out wet and leave them there all day. It works for cloth diapers so it might save some of the clothes.

I've also found success with clorox2 stain remover. I pre-treat and soak overnight then wash.  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Lakes, and ellabee, I've never used cloth diapers so I didn't know this was a thing! I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the suggestions!

How's pump weaning going? It's going well down to 5 pumping sessions a day versus the 8 I was doing. I like not being tied to a pump as much. I hope the rest of her teeth coming in goes easier.

DH and I took DS and DD to the pool and swam for a while. We're being rewarded with two sleeping kiddos!
I'm counting down until one of my LLR groups debuts the new Disney line tonight, this mama wants some Minnie Mouse leggings!!

R has been doing this fun thing where he goes to bed and sleeps for 40 minutes and then wakes up and fights it until midnight or later. It's great.
