It’s the end of the week - I’m happy about it. Play dates tomorrow - tasty Korean fried chicken for dinner tonight (with kimchee).
LO didn’t nap much today, so I’m hoping that means he’ll sleep a lot tonight.
Also, we’ve figured out that LO is definitely trying to say DS1’s name...it is sooo cute. DS1 comes in the room and LO babbles his 2 syllable word that kind of sounds like DS1’s name, and he only says it when DS1 is around. I think LO likes his big brother!

doodlemommy Sheet masks! I looked at Walmart, and I see they carry the Soo Ae brand - I’ve heard good things about that. I do NOT like th “Yes to” brand, or Garnier. Garnier is overpriced and crappy quality when it comes to Asian Beauty products. My favorite brands of sheet masks are: Naruko, Leaders, Innisfree, Skinfood, Freeset, My Beauty Diary, and Toosowong. I don’t know how easily you can find any of those, but if you see any of them - pick up a box (or a few singles). I think The Face Shop has stores in Canada, and they have decent sheet masks too. Lemme know what you end up picking up and whether you like it! For types of sheet masks - i always like ones with Hyaluronic Acid, Propolis, and Snail! 🐌 is the best 😊

Aww man, I want to hear baby babbles. E just screeches still. Super fun to have a kid who screeches 24/7 and you get to listen to everyone tell you how crabby your kid is.
Unfortunately she makes that sound when shes happy, mad, scared, excited. So piss off everyone.

Little brother is just hollering to holler. I'm introverted and DS1 is typically talking 24/7 and now LO is added to the mix. At first I'm like
And then I'm just

Whelp - the fun long weekend started off great (good food and kids were happy, eating well at dinner). And then DS1 had diarreah in his pants about an hour ago.  |

doodlemommy Check our Shoppers too for sheet masks... the Life Brand ones aren’t actually too bad and they have a K Beauty brand that I haven’t tried yet. The Face Shop ones are really nice too.

We are headed up to my parents for the long weekend after work today. Ready to spend time with family and relax. It supposed to be hot still so hopefully the girls can swim some. DD2 loved standing on the step of the pool last time and splashing. My parents have offered to watch the girls at night while we’re up there so H and I should be able to get some date night in too!

Sinus cold + seasonal allergies + breastfeeding = grumpiness
I miss the good drugs for colds. There’s been a very small window in the past 4 years I could have them.
DD2 does this squawk call to her sister, yells and she makes a ba ba ba noise all day these days.

I am trying to make a chiropractor appt so I'm calling around to nearby ones and I guess they're all closed today? Last one I called said they're close for the "long labor day weekend"... so having Monday off isn't good enough, we are taking Friday too?

We are going to the state fair with my in-laws today. At least if i can get DS1 out of bed. He was up from 5:30-7, so now he won't wake up. I'm about to toss his little brother in his bed and see if that helps.

I miss drugs 😂 I just got over a sinus cold and was pretty miserable with only Tylenol as what I wanted was some hard core decongestants. |

Taitai, 😮 noooo.... he worst...poor guy...hopefully it’s just a one time thing. DS had it last yr and dunno how he managed to get to the potty in time with just 1 poopcident. I think he ran to the crapper like 9 times. I read your top post and was thinking yummm I like me some Korean fired chicken too! Anyways hopefully it’s just a one time deal or very short.

Guess... lil fella is making up from his non nap yesterday and early wake up this am too. I managed to reschedule and schedule Dr. And dentist appts. for everyone and reinstalled the car seats back in the car and I’m sweating buckets. I think we’re done with the bucket seat...I took him to the bank with me yesterday and boy was he getting heavy to hoist around. I’m getting tears thinking he’s so big sitting in a car seat now.😭😭

Anyone bubs calling out mama or dada yet? Any words? I know it’s early but I just looked at notes and DS was already calling mama whenhe was 10 months. He was a very talker though so I guess I’m just waiting for lil fella to be like his bro but with no teeth and crap napped prob not.

We almost have a tooth, the two bottom ones look like they can come through any time now. I was going to do a bit of sleep training this weekend to try to drop one of her night time wakes but I don’t think that’s going to happen.

Yes - LO is saying Mama, Dada, and he is attempting to say DS1’s first name. It’s adorable. DS1 is extremely verbal and was an early talker, so I think lo will be the same. |
