Here I'm trying to stay sane. MH went to go redeem his skydiving Groupon I gifted him for his bday. The place is up in the mountains and his sister is going w him.. I expect him to be gone most of the day. So I'm trying to stay busy with the girls. Except it's gonna rain. So.

Good morning! Today is ds1 birthday! We took him to the amusement park yesterday and sent the baby to daycare. He loved rides. Today we need to get him a cake and plan to take him for pizza tonight to the "fire oven" place.

Good morning ladies! Not much on the agenda today. We have already had breakfast. I am drinking coffee. In a little while I will go and shower. I may do some shopping later. Other than that, I got nothing. lol

Good morning! We had night 4 last night of DS waking up every 2 hours so I am so tired.
But in great news, my mom is coming to pick him up soon and DH and I are heading downtown to spend the night and celebrate our anniversary! I foresee lots and lots of drinks and good food. And I'm excited to be able to drink as much as I want without worrying about breastfeeding, lol!

Oh AND I'm soooo excited to sleep in a hotel room and hopefully get 8 hours of sleep! I feel like at this point I would cry of happiness if I got that much sleep

Morning! We don’t have any real plans today. DD1’s 2nd Birthday party is tomorrow and yesterday the lady I ordered custom cookies and cake canceled. Like really?!? I figured something out but it was really annoying.
DD2 had her first two teeth pop through yesterday and today!!

All is good here too, for the most part. We did have another crappy night but somehow being up from 3:00am-4:30am didn't seem too bad??!! I'm going for a pedicure today and my sister might join me. I just did yoga, baby is napping and DH and DS went to swim lessons. When baby wakes, I'll vacuum and we might hit up an estate sale just to look around if it isn't too late. We got Indian take out last night....yay! I am so happy about it. There's a new-ish Indian restaurant about 20 min from where we live, this is pretty major since our area is small town/rural. We had a chicken dish, okra and lentils. yum.

This morning we got up and went to see a sunflower field. They are naturally covered in bees (which I knew going in) but this year DD2 just couldn’t stop freaking out. We got a reasonable family pic and now we’re dropping the oldest two off at open gym.
This afternoon my parents are keeping the older three while DH, DD4 and I go to KC to see some friends.

H is safely on the ground. Yay!
O is definitely working on her first tooth. I can feel the front bottom left under her gums already! Guessing in the next couple weeks it'll appear. Thought I could see it too (faintly under the gun ready to erupt) but she doesn't let me look in her mouth! And with her sister the 2nd closely followed the first. She's a big biter of the boob... Help. Lol

Help. Lol dd2 has gone thru about a week of a biting phase after each tooth has popped. She has 6 right now, with 2 more about to pop. Ugh. So more biting is in our future too 😒

Someone shake some sense into me. We are very much done having babies. I'm miserable pregnant and it's just not healthy for my body to go through another. Buttttt I was looking at pictures from my last few days pregnant and hospital pictures and awwwwww I want to relive that or just experience that one week. We could never afford another anyway so it's not even worth considering.

jessijean I’m with you. I know I don’t really want to parent any more children. But I would so very much want to relive those newborn snuggles. DH was smart to get a V because I probably would have tried to convince him to have another. 😂 Nonetheless, for me I don’t think the baby fever will ever go away, I’ll just have to figure out how to deal.

jessijean I get the feeling completely. We can’t afford another one and our house currently is too small. We’ve discussed that we are done with any biological children but when Ds2 gets ready for kindergarten that we are going to look into fostering with the intent to adopt.

I wish I enjoyed having babies as much as you guys. Give me all the tantruming toddlers over babies that need to eat every three hours. 🤷🏻♀️

If I don’t kill my husband by the end of the day it will be a miracle. He wants to give me attitude bc I need help going through the boxes in the garage. He’s the one that excepted a job 3500 miles away. We are also breaking our lease so we need to be out as soon as someone else wants it. Ugh. Is it too early for a drink?

I just want the newborn snuggles and newborn ness. Not the sleep deprivation and nursing around the clock and all that. Lol.

This Disney photo album is going to be the death of me. I’m 40 pages deep and still have a day and a half worth of photos to put in. Excessive? Yes. Do I care? Not really.

DS1 was super easy until like 2 1/2. Once he figured out how to be stubborn I’ve definitely felt like I can’t do it. The baby on the other hand has been a much needier baby so we shall see how it goes as he grow.

I emailed my doctor about my anxiety, finally. The episodes are getting too frequent and over stupid stuff (i.e. picking out a potty seat for new potty). I'm on reglan for milk production and I know it can cause depression so I'm wondering if it could be related. I'd she takes me off of it an basically done pumping. I'm going to be frustrated to have to quit. We will see what she says.
