I am trying to get G to finish her banana so I can dress her for school. She is supposed to get bus service but someone dropped the ball and she may not get it until Monday. Cue all the rage because I have to pick her up during the baby’s best nap of the day. 😡😡
I am not going to get into the clusterfuck that was my conversations with the school and her coordinator but they screwed up and now I am suffering for it.
I am excited for her to start though. I hope she likes it.

marygracerich Good luck to G on her first day! We are 2.5 weeks in to our vacation. Tomorrow we finally get to go home! It’s been good, but way too much driving, especially for the baby. Right now we’re in a beach house with H’s parents, and I am just very ready to get back into our own routine where I have more control over...anything. Like making sure we eat dinner by 6 so that I can get DD1 to bed before she starts having a ridiculous meltdown. Or doing my own laundry. (Yes, a weird thing to complain about! MIL said “I can get your laundry started for you!” And I said “Oh thanks, but you don’t need to do that. I’ll take care of it.” She then washed our stuff, and folded, anyway. Very nice of her, but I don’t actually want my MIL folding my underwear. Or H’s. It’s just a little...over involved.)

It’s DS1’s first day of 1st grade and DS2’s first day at his new sitters. Fx everyone has a good day.
I have to go get a bridesmaid dress altered and I’m not happy about it and suspect it is going to cost more to alter than the dress cost. I can’t get a smaller size because they were discontinued 2 years ago.

Ian is officially mobile. He can go from a crawling positing to sitting, back to crawling position and then actually start crawling. He does it all himself now.

marygracerich We aren’t there yet but I found him on his hands and knees when he got up in the middle of the night last night. Probably should start looking for a baby gate for the stairs.

Hmmm I should probably take mine out soon too. He usually doesn’t go anywhere near the stairs so far. I did have to lower his crib mattress though.

H finally decided that we're going to his cousin's wedding next month. Cue a mad scramble of me buying plane tickets, reserving a hotel and rental car, then reading the invitation again and seeing FORMAL. I reserved a couple dresses from RTR, so hopefully one of them fits. I have no idea how to dress my postpartum body. DD and I had way too much fun with filters this weekend.

sparky85 I didn’t realize your DS and my DS1 were around the same age. Mine was bouncing off the walls this morning in excitement and couldn’t wait to get to his classroom. We have not even thought about the baby gate situation. We as bad as it sounds right now he stays in some sort of containment device until I can figure out what we’re doing.

We never took our gates down and DD1 just turned 3. Haha. Guess I'm ahead of the game for baby but she's not crawling yet.

helloerrbody Just wanted to say still thinking of you this week...hugs! DS is starting to crawl as well...I am not ready! Lots of baby proofing needs done here. After two weeks I feel like the crib transition has gone pretty smoothly....he is sleeping about 8:30 to 8:30 with two short wake ups. Knock on wood!!

Liv likes to push herself forward into her belly. We're close to that hand and knees. One night I found her sitting up when she woke up to eat. Our days are limited!
Her sister crawled at 5.5mo so I'm just waiting.

Guess I'm ahead of the game for baby but she's not crawling yet. my dd is also 3 (turned 3 in May) and we JUST took the gates down a couple months ago because we were repainting everything to sell our house 😂 otherwise they’d still be up. We’re moving middle of October so I’m praying to GOD H doesn’t crawl before then so I don’t have to put the gates back up. She seems soooo close though so I’m not sure I’m gonna be so lucky

Yesterday was DD3’s first day of preschool. We waited for the bus to pick up the big girls for elemantry, and girlfriend started to follow them straight on. I had to grab her off the steps. She said mom it’s MY first day of school! She was pissed when she realized that still didn’t mean she got to ride the bus. I felt bad for her. Lol. But she seriously was just going to get on without a bye or a second thought. So funny.
