Also having seven hours every Friday to clean/shop/etc is the best thing that ever happened in my life.
Maybe not really. But top ten.

My baby has been waking up nine million times overnight again and I can’t sleep train her now because she’s not gaining enough weight. So I’ve been exhausted and only sort of half awake during wake ups. And apparently like three nights ago I purchased as much of the 2016 Mini Boden Roald Dahl collection as I could find secondhand online. It all got here today. It’s not even all the right sizes. One shirt is a 6/7. My daughter is 4. And tiny. I’m so sorry. I lived through this. It’s awful. My favorite moment so far is when I woke up in the hallway in front of my bedroom. I just couldn’t make it all the way back.

I did soooooo much online shopping when we had rough nights. I never remembered what I clearly thought was an important purchase at 3 AM.

Trying to get kid to bed then opening a bottle of wine, I wish every week was short like this one.

A local by Montauk brewing Co. It's amazing I feel like I need to come see you and we can drink your local craft beers and then you come to Ohio and drink our local craft beers.

@darlene You just can't catch a break. Is your skin around the surgical sites any better today? Lol. I was back at the doctor's today because I developed an allergy to the antibiotics I was taking. So while the skin around my incisions is better, I have an itchy rash on my legs, torso, groin, and armpits.

Oooh. I just checked my bank account and I also spent money at JCrew.
Hopefully I remembered what size I am.

I have successfully gotten DD hooked on watching baking shows with me. This is one of DD’s favorite things to do. Sometimes we choose a recipe and make it together.

I didn’t know it was a beer lovers’ day! I should be celebrating. A couple we know back home shipped us a few bottles of our favorite beer that you can’t get in WA (didn’t have the heart to tell them we brought up 5 assorted cases from this brewery), so maybe I should crack one open.

She used to love Chopped..my mom made her a personalized "Chopped" basket for Christmas. Right now, she loves "Kids Baking Championship". I feel so bad when they get eliminated though.

The kid shows are so hard for me to watch because I hate watching them get eliminated. I mean, I even hate to see the adults get eliminated.

Shit filingjointly I’m sorry. Sleep deprivation is truly the worst. Plus weight gain stress that’s a lot to deal with.

It’s been a day/week here too. H is being obnoxious about sex AGAIN despite the fact that I yanked something in my back and am in a huge amount of pain - and have repeatedly told him this.
I swear if he lays one more innuendo on me tonight I just might kill him.

I tend to buy “sleep miracles” when up with the baby when he won’t sleep, not even good stuff for myself. I’m clearly doing that wrong because the miracles don’t do shit.

Shit filingjointly I’m sorry. Sleep deprivation is truly the worst. Plus weight gain stress that’s a lot to deal with. Thanks. It’s a bummer. But MH has been doing some mornings at home so I can grab a couple of hours of sleep before I parent the kids. And the baby actually managed to gain 10oz in 21 days, which was .5oz from what the ped said she’d be happy with before we weighed her. So, we’re doing OK. And also I have surprise packages coming to cheer me up apparently. I’m sorry you’re having sleep issues too. Babies are lucky they’re cute.

filingjointly parenting other children when you’re sleep deprived has so far been the worst part this go around, especially since toddler does not understand or care at all because toddler. I’m glad your H can help out in the AM.

I might have some wine after the kids go down, but I might also just pass out. First week back at work and I am not used to getting up early, standing all day, and being “on” for six classes a day. My brain is fried.
I also have a haircut tomorrow. My PP hair loss is horrible. I have bare spots on either side of my bangs. I desperately want to cut it super short, but my sister’s wedding is next week, and I am not doing an experimental new haircut before I’m immoralized in a million family photos.
Next haircut though. Chop.
