Morning! We’re in the process of painting the kids bedrooms. Dh got the primer done last night and first coat on DS’s room. Then he took himself to the walk in. Pretty sure he has strep but we’ll see. We have a wedding this afternoon for a high school buddy of DHs. It’s pissing down rain. My big two are drying with my parents this weekend. We’ll pick them up tomorrow and have Thanksgiving with my ILs. We’re having Thanksgiving with my parents next weekend. And also it’s our anniversary. I got Dh a card. He says he got me something but I have to wait. We’re not really gift exchanging or big plans people.

Happy Anniversary Snuff!! I need to paint too, like the whole house needs a refresher. But it's just such a huge task to take on when I can barely keep up with day to day stuff

I’m solo parenting the boys. I hate when I wake up all motivated - like I started laundry, we went grocery shopping, ate lunch - but now the boys are crazy/crabby and i have a bunch of laundry to finish, groceries to put away, and a kitchen to clean but I’m just exhausted even though it’s only noon.
Hopefully I’ll get my shit together while C naps. I have to make my dad some peanut brittle then we’re going to my parents house to celebrate his birthday. He’s 65 today! He is the sweetest man- the best dad/grandpa and we love him so much.

Happy Thanksgiving, Canadians!
I went for my last long training run this morning! I felt pretty great too, so I’m really excited for my half.
The rest of the weekend will be spent cleaning and doing yard work in preparation for E’s party next weekend. We also need to go to a local garden store to get some small pumpkins for kids to paint at the party.

Howdy. No Thanksgiving plans here. My in-laws changed it till next weekend as it “didn’t suit BIL”. Spoiler. It never does. MIL says we weren’t having it Monday as my husband and FIL would be working. Spoiler: every year we have it on Monday and every year DH never comes. But we never change it for them 🤷🏼♀️ Whatever. I’m over it. Just tell me what to bring and what time to show up.
I need to clean as well. But just sitting here wasting times anyways.

Happy Thanksgiving Canadians!
Our daycare is closed for in service on Monday so I’m home with B that day. I’m trying to get work done ahead of time since I will likely not do any with him and our vacation just reset at work and I don’t want to take a day yet. I’m trying to decide what to do all day so I don’t lose my mind chasing the crawling baby. He’s into everything.

Hi, all! I'm checking in during DD2 nap. I have had a good day so far. I went to work out this morning with a friend and saw another friend (H's boss's wife) there who wants to be my workout buddy, too!
Then I came home for lunch and DD1 and I went to get our hair done at Drybar. We have a family mini fall photo session this evening. We caught the one cloudy day here in a long time, of course, but hopefully it makes for good pics.

Happy anniversary snuff9861, Happy Thanksgiving to our Canadian friends! N woke up a total pain in the ass and it just continued throughout the whole day. We went to PAw Patrol Live which he loved and even E did great. But when we got home N was back at it. Never have I been so happy for bedtime. Tomorrow we have a bunch of family coming to celebrate my birthday (it’s Monday). Then we are going to the fair for the last day.

We went apple picking today and visited my brother and his gf. My mom came too. Ds1 had so much fun. I got the cutest pic of him cuddling with my brother. I love that they are so close. Ds2 chilled in the lillebaby.

Perfect pumpkin patch day here and many of the locals apparently agreed. So busy today. My body aches after today and tomorrow will be another doozy. I'm going to bed.

We hit up a pumpkin patch today too, but we weren't thrilled with our choice. Were trying to find one to me out tradition place since we moved, but also, we struck out.
My parents took us out for dinner and it dragged way too late. They're roping us (H) I to helping at my brother's restaurant tomorrow too, so we'll see.
I'm so pumped for a long weekend. School is exhausting and the baby does NOT sleep. I'm legit dying, you guys.

Happy thanksgiving Canadian friends!! I’m up north, the signal is terrible so it’s hard to check in. We went to the park earlier and then my H took DS1 out into a deer stand to “hunt.” He didn’t bring his bow out but they lasted about 30min which I think is pretty good for his first time. Happy anniversary snuff9861

I’m jealous of all you pumpkin patch goers. There is no such thing around here. 1) it’s freezing and 2) I have yet to come across one. I shouldn’t say that- there used to be one. 1 mile from my house. But they sold the property and the new owners didn’t keep it going. Today as I drove to town, I saw a display in the parking lot of a grocery store with probably 300 pumpkins on a trailer. That’s as good as it’s going to get here I guess. Lol

AKA keep him contained in a shopping cart and let him see all the people/things. I got about half of my work done already this weekend, so hopefully tomorrow runs smooth and I just have to approve spending on Monday.

Happy Thanksgiving to all the Canadians!
We've just had a couple of hours reading in the sun while baby girl was napping - heavenly!
Planning to go find her a sippy cup when she is up as she keeps biting on the bottle instead of drinking.

Sorry I’ve been mia. Trying to keep up with politics has taken all of my pump time lately (plus I’m dropping one at work), and I feel so disheartened and helpless.
Our whole house has been sick for weeks and we just want to kick it. So I gave both kids a half dose of Tylenol hoping it would help get some solid sleep. It must have worked for DD since she slept through both times DS woke, including an hour straight of crying at 1 am.
DS has a fever Friday so I was nursing him very often and I don’t know if I have clog again but damn his latch hurts and my boobs are full again. Didn’t think I’d have to pull out the lecithin again this late especially since my supply is not as plentiful anymore.

Happy birthday all! So many! I think I remember that from last year.
We had a baby birthday party yesterday for one of Jojo's friends. It's so cute walking in and putting her down and she just crawls over and starts playing with the blocks with the other girl 😊 also, like her mother, she likes cake. Party was at the Grandma's townhouse in the ocean, it was nice enough to spend most of the time on the rooftop deck! They are living a different life than me, haha.
We had some people over last night to watch the UFC fights, girls hung out in the kitchen and talked pregnancy and labour 😂 my friend who had the 2nd trimester loss last year is 35 weeks now ❤️ it was nice to have a group over, we haven't done it in ages! And we're all old so they were all gone by 10!
Today it's raining and we don't have much going on. DD was cranky so I've already put her down for her first nap. I think when she gets up I'll go out solo to run some errands. DD and DH need some time together so she can stop being so clingy to me.

I'm sipping coffee, making butter noodles, and watching MAFS alone right now. Both girls are napping and H is working at my brother's restaurant right now. Bliss, you guys, pure bliss. ldubhawksfan I've been spending my free internet perusing time ducked into politics too lately. It's so awful, I'm feeling so broken up over it all. I hate where we are and we've become. It sucks.
