I decided to give the baby some banana and some egg while I ate breakfast today. He loved it.
There is a crew of guys with trucks working in the street right by my car. I really hope they move soon because I have to leave in less than 45 minutes and I don’t think I am going to be able to with them in the way.

SD moved back in with us yesterday and SS2 came to see her and stayed the night. Naturally, with extra people in the house DD slept like crap and was awake a million times. I have the tired this morning. She also wouldn't go back down at 5, so I brought her to our room and she snoozed with H. Cue my ovaries exploding and feeling a tiny pang of regret that we are OAD. He is so good with her even though he drives me crazy with how extra he is about some things with her.

I spoke to the road crew. They said they would move when I needed to get out. They did. I am now with the baby while G is in her ST session. She is rocking it so much lately.

Faith came home and slept 3 hours after day care. I had to wake her up at 9:00 to feed her (she hadn't eaten since 4:30) and give her a bath. I was sure she would be up all night but she went back down to sleep fairly easily around 9:40 was up at 2:30 to eat and then woke up a little before 7:00. Maybe a growth spurt?
It is raining here and it make me want to go back to bed. My busy season at work is winding down (thank goodness) so I have time on my hands... Yesterday I was able to work on a quilt for my mom and I'll do that some more today. I should also do some cleaning but I probably won't.

Yay G! marygracerich @thunderdungeon we have 2 and I have a pang of sadness knowing (hoping) this is the last baby. We're happy with 2 because 🤑🤑🤑 kids are expensive but my O is just the sweetest little baby. Pumping right now. 7 more months of pumping! I think i will drop to 2 pumps at 7 months. I don't remember if that's what I did for DD1.. Might have been at 9mo.. Or I'll pump twice at work and drive -pump every day. Idk. I hate pumping so I will be glad to be done!!! Met w my new managers today 🤩 I'm so so so happy about my new job. It still doesn't feel real yet but hopefully soon. I have a 1x1 w my current mgr at 10 to hopefully discuss my transition. |

I need a day though before I change jobs to get the kid clothing situation figured out. I'm missing stuff and I have SO much stuff to put away / consign. So. I need an entire day to do it.

That's awesome marygracerich! sunfrogger I'm very much looking forward to being done pumping. I have big plans for my pump that include a parking lot and a baseball bat.  |

Today is a slow day at work... I have some household stuff I would like to sell for extra money (no kid/baby stuff yet) I should take some time today to sort through stuff, clean it up and post it on some Facebook BST groups. |

I am trying to decide if I want to sell my Graco regular stroller. I have a double stroller and an umbrella stroller so I sort of don’t need it. However I am hanging on to it as a spare.

I'm hanging onto all of mine for now. I figure once my 3 year old is done riding in a few years (she doesn't ride much now but for long walks or amusement parks/zoos mostly) then i will need a single for baby for a while. |

I figure once my 3 year old is done riding in a few years (she doesn't ride much now but for long walks or amusement parks/zoos mostly) then i will need a single for baby for a while. I have a lightweight stroller for that time. So I have a sit and stand, a graco standard stroller and a lightweight stroller that’s sort of in between an umbrella stroller and regular stroller. The standard stroller is sitting in my loft collecting dust. |

The baby is sitting on his own playing with his toys. He has only almost fallen over once in the last 7 minutes or so. I would say he is officially an unsupported sitter.

marygracerich sounds like you can probably get rid of the unused one. I am a stroller hoarder. We have a snap n go, a travel stroller, a heavy duty umbrella stroller that lays flat, an uppa baby vista, a single bob and a double bob and probably some cheaper umbrella strollers too. I probably need to get rid of some but I like having options haha.

You are definitely a stroller hoarder. 😂 I have the sit and stand and the lightweight in my trunk. |

Hey everyone! Sorry for being MIA. We had a 4 day weekend at the lake and it was so nice.
Catching up here. We will also do BLW. T will be 6 months on 8/11 and we have done oatmeal and purées so far. We tried slices of real banana and she loved it. I find BLW so much easier. Great reminder lists for the foods to try!

V pulled herself up yesterday. She's not 6 months yet. This is early, right?
Not just me freaking out b/c it is going so quickly? I feel like DS didn't do it until closer to 7 months.

Ian can sort of pull himself up but not very well. He can sit will though. He is 7mo and I am not worried. |

I have noticed that the baby has a bedtime sweet spot. If you put him to bed too early he just crawls around his crib. If you wait too long he cries for forever with his eyes closed. No matter how much you soothe him, he still cries. If I hit the sweet spot I just lay him down and he knocks out.
It looks like tonight will be a crying night.

Ate my dinner about 45 min after everyone else.
I’m just about ready to literally pass out. I feel like doing 0 dishes so I think I might go lay in bed.
My big has a low fever (100.3). Thankfully mh was planning to wfh tomorrow in case it shows up again - or is there in the morning.
Mh is in the middle of putting together a new desk....
