I am so over this week. I dressed comfy for work and there are no meetings on the agenda, so I plan on doing as little as possible and getting to the weekend. Anyone have any fun plans?

My mom's surprise party is this weekend! I just ordered her gift so it won't be here in time but it's the thought that counts right?
Dh took a vacation day today so he's home but mostly staying out of my way which I appreciate. Ds1 still went to school so it's quiet. Ds2 got up early so he's down for a nap already.
I started watching Jack Ryan on Amazon and I like it so far! Very action-y which I appreciate. Downton was starting to drag and I read spoilers that made me sad.

My friend is leaving on her honeymoon tonight and a couple of her flowers turned out so I'm hoping to run to michael's when the baby wakes up so I can put together her shadow box to give to her. Then groceries. DH is out running errands today so he's of no help lol.

Typical Friday here. I try to make them more relaxed for my students. At this point we are all pretty much ready for the weekend.
E slept decently for having a cold, my H was diagnosed with bronchitis yesterday but is already feeling better due to meds, and I slept in instead of doing the treadmill. Tomorrow we are going apple and pumpkin picking and I can't wait.

I’m throwing my future-SIL a bachelorette party tomorrow. I’m catering a fajita bar from a local Mexican restaurant and I’m also setting up a cheesecake bar because that’s her fav dessert- a giant cheesecake from Costo with an bunch of different toppings (blueberries, cherries, chocolate, caramel, etc.). My MIL is an excellent sugar cookie maker so she made a bunch of penis-shaped cookies — she did a great job which is awesome yet a bit disturbing. Of course there will also be margaritas, penis straws, a few shenanigans, and we will go out on the town. I’m excited!

I'm sitting at work debating whether or not I burn some personal time today. I don't really have any motivation to do anything. I would rather just wander around Target or something. Hmmmm...decisions, decisions.
I'm really looking forward to being done pumping. N was 10 months this week so only 2 more months! We'll probably continue nursing a couple/few times a day but I definitely will be done pumping at a year. I have decided I will try to keep nursing until February if he wants, which would be about 15 months, to get through a good portion of the winter cold/flu season. I nursed DS1 until 14.5 months and I think that was about all that either of us could handle.

Cheesecake bar isn't something I've heard of before, such a great idea!

Morning. I'm glad the activities are back now that summer is over. We're going to library time today. Then we'll go to my mom's for lunch and a trip to the consignment store. I need to pick up a few things for daycare 😬

Good morning!
Ds2 has his 9 month appointment. He’s still short and chubby lol. He got his first flu shot and will do the 2nd in October with DS1. He had a super yucky poop after getting it though then was fine all last night and now daycare has changed him 3 times. I’m thinking it’s all teeth related instead of the shot because his top two teeth are just about to break through. I’m hoping daycare doesn’t ask me to come get him, or at least that they wait until this afternoon when I can leave work and not have to do work from home!!

We've got DS1's first soccer game of the season on Sat and his birthday on Sun. I don't know if I will have time (probably won't) but if I can get my house cleaned up some, I really want to start putting my Fall/ Halloween decorations out. I love them so much!

That’s what I’m gonna do on Sunday once I clean up all the penis straws and puke (kidding! I hope...) I love fall!

And so it begins 😍 Eta I'm going to put some black gauzy material on the mantle to cover up the movies and stuff with a string of Christmas lights behind it. I just have to get to Michael's.

You guys have fun weekends planned! I think we are doing a whole lot of nothing, which I'm fine with. N's surgery will be Thursday morning at 8am. We have to be there at 6:30. As prep, he cannot have solid food after midnight or breastmilk after 2am. He also cannot have a pacifier after 4am. That kid is going to be so pissed off, I will be begging for the anesthesiologist.

I love it grumpycat. The Nightmare Before Christmas is one of my favorite movies. I have a nice little collection of themed Jim Shore figurines from it. I always get way to excited to put them on display.

Very minor, outpatient, but it requires general anesthesia because wiggly 9mo + sharp implements is not a good mix

Wow. That looks really cool. My MIL usually gives me one as a gift almost every year for my birthday so I'm building up quite the collection.

He can have toys but nothing that will get his stomach juices pumping. My little chunker will not care about the toys, though. So hangry.

snuff9861 I love it! That’s so thoughtful of you. My MOH made me a glass ornament with some of my dried wedding flowers inside and it’s one of my favorite gifts of all time.

If it is anything like when DS1 got his tonsils taken out they took him back to surgery not long after we had to check in. Hopefully you won’t have to wait until 8.

Prayers to you on Thursday cakewench. That’s a long time for a baby to not eat or be soothed.
