I ran away from the house as the cleaning lady is there. It's 11.20 and I have already been to 2 toy shops to try and get a duplicate of BabyWaffle's lovie as the company discontinued it. It was in their catalogue before we went on holiday and now it isn't anymore 😭
I also went to my mother's apartment to see if there were any toys she had kept that would work now/soon and everything I find is just rubbish. I remember all these toys and clothes I had that would be great to have now and they're not there. There are boxes and boxes of school reports, barbie clothes, and clothes I never liked 😕
I need to go back with Dh to check places I can't reach but it looks like she got rid of the meaningful stuff.
I'm now waiting to see the dermatologist about my c section scar, it flared up again so I think it's a hair follicle. Fingers crossed she finds the reason, I can't be on antibiotics 5 times a year!
What are you doing today?

Morning. I stayed up WAY too late last night, but it was fun. Plus a coworker brought in a cinnamon bun apple pie thing and it is making a pretty great breakfast- I’m just working on my winter bod- ha!
Tonight we are going to a Chinese light display in a park. It’s super cool but it is going to be so cold!!! Then my H leaves for a hunting trip for 8 days tomorrow and I am not looking forward to solo parenting the whole time. Luckily my parents and IL’s live close so maybe I can deposit one of the kids with them a day or two 😊

Omg Jules I want your breakfast. I am so hungry.
Took both boys for flu shots this morning and they were champs. Now I just need to get mine tomorrow.

It seems N shared his cold with me. I am not pleased and I really just want to go to bed. Also, imagine my disappointment as I truly thought it was Thursday. Whomp whomp.
We have cleared what seems to be a major hurdle and N has been tolerating bread with soybean oil and crackers with soybean oil and soy lecithin for days. This makes a huge difference in what we can eat. Hopefully soon we can move forward with trying some other soy things and just mark that off of the list completely. I'm still very nervous about dairy but hoping since he is almost one we are close to the end.

jules1614 8 days?! Yikes! DH is up north every weekend but MIL or my parents usually take pity on me and help out with the boys a bit too- very thankful for that!

Good morning! Thank you all for the well wishes yesterday, I am feeling a bit better. DH and I had DS1’s parent teacher conference and IEP meeting (speech) and it went really well. He’s made a lot of progress with his speech and his 4K teacher said he’s a very sweet boy and she loves having him in class 🙂.
Now I am going to do the absolute least today. Might even order pizza for lunch because my appetite is back after not eating much yesterday. I think I figured out the cause of my last two bouts of mastitis- a sports bra that must be a bit too small. It feels okay on but last time I had mastitis I had worn it for 4 hours the day before, and this week Sunday I wore it for a 2 mile run.

Yay for soy roloma! Also yay for all the flu shots 😬 we'll get ours at the end of the month at DD's one year appt. jules1614, sounds good all around! So get this, after only having one nap yesterday at noon, she slept through the night which she hasn't done for months, and until 6:30, so 12 hours. I'm assuming it was just good luck, and we'll be flip flopping between one and two naps for ages now because I don't like planning my days at all 🙄 Day 2 of daycare today. An hour without me. Starbucks down the street for me! And a work phone call 😒 |

So glad you are feeling better pootsen! I find that if I fall asleep in my underwire bra I will get pretty bad clogged ducts so I wouldn't be surprised if it was the sports bra. Hopefully you continue to improve quickly and get a yummy pizza! |

I have a couple errands to run today. I really need to get to the consignment store to get pants for ds1. Or maybe I'll see if I can find any sales online. He favors sweatpants lol.
Ds2 is getting closer to walking. He's at the "just needs to let go" stage. He cruises everywhere and pulls himself up on flat surfaces (like the wall). He's gotten in the habit of two wake ups and we are pushing him to only have one. So he woke up at 1045pm last night, we let him cry it out. He did go back to sleep and woke up later around 3am. I fed him then. I need him to get more teeth and start walking then I will feel better about night weaning lol.

Whomp whomp I forgot all my pump parts at my moms house. Normally I leave them at work but I had to pump on my way home so I cleaned them and forgot them. Hopefully my H can run them down to me and bring me lunch too 😊

Sorry he's at two wake ups, DD has been there lately and it is so much harder than just one, why??? I like consignment stores, but sometimes I find things cheaper just at Old Navy or something, especially for play clothes. Although I love the half price rack, then it's a good deal. We just stopped there the other day and I got DD 4 sweaters: two Gap, one Halloween printed (haha) and a Gymboree poncho 😂 for $15! I can't wait to put her in the poncho I think it'll be hilarious. |

Hey. Family pictures went ok I think. Not much smiling for L and DS1 was afraid of the cows (it was in a field) but hopefully she got some good ones. I think we are going to try and finally finish painting our bedroom tonight. It has taken about a week and a half to finish it lol. Next will be the living room.

Glad you are feeling better, pootsen! Also glad I'm not the only one with an LO still doing a MOTN feed. We are trying to get him off it, but that's also on me to get more regular table food in front of him and I'm having a difficult time getting going on that front. At this point I'm just going to say screw it until we get back from my cousin's wedding this weekend, but I want to get a plan going for when we get back. I've already started slowly upping his bottles during the day. N's responding well to the eye drops, and went back to DC this morning. I'm WFH the rest of the day. N's been refusing some puree the last day or so - I've been trying to switch to Happybaby pouches (I like that they are see through) from the Gerber tubs but I'm wondering if some of the flavor combos are a little too advanced for him. Just keeping FX he doesn't turn out to be as picky as his dad lol  Our anniversary is Saturday (same day my cousin is getting married lol), and H's birthday is next week. No idea what to get him for either. |

cakewench we established we have the same anniversary, right?! We don’t have plans yet and hope to drop the kids off with ILs for a few hours. They get back from OOT tomorrow so then we will check. We don’t do presents, but instead try to integrate the tradition into what we do. This year we want to go golfing.

Hallo! I’m pumping, but man I keep getting less and less! DH started in on wanting #3 yesterday. 😳 H has been bugging me forever for #5! He's finally laying off on that now that ds3 has reached the wonderful threenager stage and is considering a snip when my Mirena is taken out in a couple years. So I guess those tantrums are worth something 😂 |

Yeah, H has been wanting to seriously consider #2 since early summer. I barely know my name until 11am with a good sleeper so yeah, I don't know about that.
It was always our plan to have 2 but we didn't know it would take us 4 years to get the first...
