I’m exhausted and it’s only 9:30am. I woke up at 4:30 and couldn’t fall back asleep. C is being uncharacteristically whiny and crabby this morning. We both need a nap but DS1 won’t let that happen. Counting down til DH gets home.

Oh no pootsen, hoping the rest of the day goes better! Haha, my baby just crawled out of a box. We put her in an Amazon box and she just tipped and crawled away. No pretend car for her! Today will be a park day since the weather is great again. Maybe get some pumpkins and or go to the pumpkin patch.

Good morning! H left for his business trip this morning. Baby is napping, DD1 is playing, and I'm eating a late breakfast and having coffee. Best.
I started laundry so I need to get that done today. I think when DD2 wakes up, we will go to Costco. The rest of the day will be pretty relaxing. It is kind of gloomy out, so a day inside cleaning up the house and making a big pot of chili for the week sounds nice.
I'm watching a Hulu movie called The Year of Spectacular Men and it is pretty entertaining.

Oh and last night's wedding was a blast. H has a great group of co-workers/friends, and I'm lucky to have made some of them my friends, too!

DH got home a couple of hours ago and ds1 is psyched! Ds2 still just wants momma 😂 I went for a run even though I didn’t want to and I feel a million times better. Going to have a long hot shower and a Moscow mule.

Super busy weekend!
We had E’s party yesterday, and although the weather sucked, it was fun. Then, this morning I ran my half marathon. I was almost exactly 1 minute slower than when I ran that race three years ago, but i was faster than all of my training runs, so I’m happy about that.
We just spent the last two hours cleaning up from the party (folding up the rented tent and tables, etc) and now I’m WIPED. I still need to put laundry away and set up a grocery order to pick up after work tomorrow.

Today we had a going away meet up for our dog walker at a dog park. Not really our thing but she is sweet and loves our big guy. Plus I was hoping to wear out DD to hopefully push up her nap. This afternoon at 1 we have a coed/family friendly baby shower. Dh seems unsure of whether he wants to bring the kids or just send me alone, but many of the husbands are his friends too. Idk. They both fell asleep around 11:45 on the drove home and somehow transferred so I guess we will see how long they sleep md maybe we drive separately??

All I can say is that both my boys got up for the day at 4:30 and now I really really need it to be bedtime.

Ds1 made a mess in every single room today. Like toys everywhere. He refused to help me clean them up so he lost some of his toys. He was sad for 2 minutes. And appears to be over it now. 🤷 So we shall see.
Eta I meant ds1 not ds2 lol. Ds2 does not clean up after himself lol.

I’m putting this kid to bed an hour early because he has napped for maybe 30 minutes total and I am D O N E. We did make it to the pumpkin patch where he face planted off of a hay bale while I tried to take a picture. MOTY over here.

ds2 came down and says he needs a box with color, a picture, and words on it for art class tomorrow morning 🤨 why do they always wait until the last minute!
I'm drinking wine and relaxing. It's been a busy weekend

Well the shower was a bust. Started at 130, food was served at 430... presents were still not all opened by the time I left at 515 and of course the cake hadn’t been cut yet so no cake for me. I told my H I need a re-do for a kid free afternoon lol!

My shower was fun but exhausting. Dh brought the kids and they had a blast, other than dd falling at one point and hurting herself. Kids were melting down by the time I got them home and dh ran back in for DD’s flip flops and of course 45 mins later I call to find out where the hell he is and he had one more beer. 🙄😒 I have never met anyone as bad at leaving as him!
But since we stuck around until nearly 7, prep for Monday is sorely needed. Dishes, vacuuming. Fml. I’m enjoying some hot lemon water and sitting down alone for 5 mins.

Happy belated birthday laurensc927 and baby grumpycat! I can't believe we're reaching one already! FB told me it was a year since my shower yesterday and that made me teary, thanks a lot period hormones... We're back home from holiday and I've had to finally admit that I'm ill. I was blaming the ac but we've been home two days and that cough isn't going anywhere 🤧🤒😷 Also, my scar has flared up again so I went to the doctors this morning and got signed off for 3 days. I am trying to do nothing and just take the time for myself but I still felt like I had to clean the house etc so a bit of a fail on naps and bubble baths... Try again tomorrow!
