I only had about 2 hours of sleep last night due to both children and I have a dental check up this afternoon. Fun stuff over here. How is everyone else today?

Thank goodness it’s almoat weekend. Today is pretty Smokey around my parts now.
Tomorrow I’m with both kids alone, so hopefully SS, and then In the afternoon we have DD’s swim class. They bumped her down to parent tot in hopes of getting her comfortable since she’s been doing terrible with the transition to solo.

Nothing exciting going on over here. Starting at 11 I have a packed schedule for the rest of the workday, so the day should go by quickly. No work tomorrow and I'm looking forward to sleeping in! And my goal for my day-off tomorrow is to list a bunch of the girls' clothes for sale in a Twin BST FB group. It seems like people have an easy time selling in there so I'm hoping I'm successful!

So, I have cats again. We ended up adopting two boys from a shelter but we kept it a secret from N. So today he’s been enjoying playing with them. E doesn’t know what to think.

He's already missed 2 classes because we were on the waitlist. I'm hoping he'll be fine. DNW to do parent-assisted since I will have to with DD1 when we start her in the fall.

Hi! Nice grumpycat, careful that doesn't lead to a third, eh? 😜 Sorry to hear your DD is having a tough time at swimming ldubhawksfan, I can see that happening to DD and she's only 9 months now 😬 This morning DD, my mom and I picked some blackberries and made jam. Then we went out for a bit of shopping and lunch. I had to buy DD a couple more pairs of shorts since she's grown out of most. At least what's left at this time of year is cheap! Also I spent $100 online at the Gap for her the other day. Their sale was good and then they had 40% off and another 10% off. So I got five pairs of pants, five tshirts, a cardigan, a jacket, a hat and some socks in 12-18 month size. So she's ready for fall!

It's been a day. N was up a bunch again last night. Just got a call about an hour ago from the daycare, apparently earlier today he was sitting by himself on the floor playing with a toy, and he fell over and hit his head. He's a pretty decent sitter but he does still topple over at home, especially if he's reaching for something. They checked him out and he seems fine, just has a bump on his head. But then he took a two hour nap so I called the pedi just to ask what to look out for that would be concerning. I feel like that was extra of me but he's never napped that long at DC. Could also be that he's getting a cold though, he woke up with a stuffy nose. Honestly when I saw the DC number come up on my phone I assumed it was pinkeye. Also, quinn might be a trendsetter. H is getting frustrated with his job and is considering looking for something new. Yesterday his day was super rough to the point where he not only suggested again that he wants to leave, but wondered if we should consider moving back near my family in MA. I was like well, if we are going to do it, before N starts school is preferable, but I sure AF do not want to make any hasty decisions in anger, so it was not a decision for last night. And then I spent the rest of the night on Zillow and fell in love with a house. Oops.

Took a day trip out to see an old customer who's husband just passed away. Having the kids there seemed to brighten her day.
H is out for the night and the babies are finally sleeping (neither one took a nap today) so I'm eating chocolate and watching Floribama Shore

It took me over 2hrs to get home from work, on a bad day it’s usually 45min. I was almost late getting DS2 from daycare- they close at 6 I got there at 550pm. And now we have another 4+ hours to get up north 😒
Hopefully that isn’t indicative of how the rest of the trip is going to be!

Fingers crossed you had the bad luck right away and the rest of the trip is great.

They are awfully sweet. The orange cat is shaved because he had such bad mats. He will be a lot fluffier once his hair grows in. Also, they are pretty thin in my opinion. We need to fatten them up a bit.

Operation get rid of stuff has officially began. I've cleaned out the food cabinet (no pantry 😕) and fridge. There is a pile of boxes in the living room that are too small for everyone living in this home, and all the extra boxes & sleeves of diapers. Poor A’s room looks like a storage closet now...oops. Has to get worse before it gets better, right?

Also hi, I have a full length grey hair and an absurdly long, grey hair in each eyebrow. I already feel like they are disappearing (I’ve only ever plucked strays) and I’m at an impass. I CANNOT have big grey bushy eyebrows. Do I need to invest in hats? Just call me granny. 😢

We just got back from going out to dinner for Hs birthday (it’s tomorrow) and I’m trying to get L to bed. Food was a little disappointing but the kids behaved pretty well so i call it a win.

N ate like 1/4 of my hamburger and 5 whole fries at dinner tonight. Kid must be growing. He also took two long naps at daycare, 2 hours and 1.5 hours.
Also, APNO is an absolute miracle. My nipples feel sooooo much better. It was expensive ($56) but worth every single penny. I would pay way more than that for the relief.
