Between Halloween and a field trip, I am fried. I'm just trying to make it through the day. AND it's pouring out so that probably means indoor recess. UGH.

Oh, and E slept in 1.5 increments so that means I did too. I need more coffee.

Good morning! I've been busy getting ds1's room finished so he can share with ds2. It has been a task to say the least. It's taped off and ready to paint tomorrow. Hoping to have them together early next week. Then I can move ds3 into the other room. AJ into the little room. And I can get my closet back!!!! Woohoo!!!

Ds2 had a rough night. He woke around 1030, wouldn’t settle. I tried ibuprofen but he still was a mess. Then he wouldn’t nurse so I gave him a small bottle and he finally settled to take that and then he finally nursed to sleep.
DS1 then called me into the bathroom because the pee “escaped” from the toilet so I had to mop up pee at 5am.
Needless to say, I used it as my excuse to go to Starbucks and get the free reusable cup they are giving out today 😊

What happened was that we wanted to go to this living history farm as part of their social studies unit and they had only 1 day available. So we had to take it. Lesson learned though. Next time, try to schedule it earlier in the fall. |

Happy Friday! I stayed up late cleaning last night - I’m a party animal, I know - and then the boys were in cahoots to keep me up all night long. They were both awake at 4:30 smiling and talking to each other but I laid down the law and made them go back to sleep. I, however, did not. So to make a short story long, I’m tired.

I swear, they just KNOW when we decide to stay up late. Those are the nights when their sleep sucks the most. |

So sorry to all the sleepy mamas today! DD actually slept through the night and is still sleeping 😅 I appreciate your all sacrificing your sleep so she could sleep well. She has her shots and her 1 year doctor appt today (two separate events here), so she needs her sleep!

Ds2 seems to be practicing his balance today. It's like watching a teen wear high heels for the first time lol. I got a part time job offer so I think I'll be taking it  my mom is going to watch ds2 while I'm working. I have to email my supervisor back at nap time to formerly accept and give me fee. I need to vacuum and do laundry too so just a normal day around here. Ds1 has been doing better at school. And they've hired some more teachers for his class so ratios are better. Even dh commented that the room seemed better when he did pick up on Wednesday. |

It is dreary and cold here today so I am extra tired. I am hoping the sun comes out at some point. I desperately wanted a bagel with "cream cheese" today so I went and bought them for the whole office so my work would pay for it and I garnered some good will I am also only working a part day because both boys have doctor appointments today. N is getting his ears rechecked and his 2nd flu shot and DS1 has his 3 year well check. I am really hoping that N's ears are clear so we can avoid antibiotic shots, which would be the next step. My DS1 is a total weirdo and keeps crying and begging to get a shot today, even though I keep reminding him that shots aren't fun and he doesn't need any. He has also been promised a trip to Target after, as long as he behaves. We were supposed to do family/1 year photos this weekend but it is looking cold and rainy all weekend. It is only supposed to rain in the morning on Sunday but I am sure the grass will stay wet most of the day and that will severely hinder our options for pictures. I am thinking of pushing them to next Sunday, even though we have N's bday party and actual birthday on Saturday. The other option would be to do the cake smash photos, which would be indoors, this Sunday and then do the outdoor family photos next weekend. Decisions, decisions. |

N took 6 steps to me yesterday and it was so funny watching him stumble around. But now he has given away that he can walk, he is just too lazy and prefers to crawl. |

We paid $88 out of pocket for dh's vasectomy. Woo hoo!
I opted to lay down for a bit instead of doing chores. We have a storm rolling in and it's giving me a fierce headache. So I'm laying in bed working on our Amazon Christmas list while ds2 naps.

TGIF!
Now that Halloween is over, I'm realizing that I should probably start planning the girls' first birthday party. Ugh I really don't feel like having a big party. I love all the decorating, but the thought of a zillion people at our house is giving me anxiety already. I wish it wasn't so pricey to have it somewhere else!

Happy Birthday baby blabbermouth! Glad to hear things at school are looking better grumpycat! Great minds think alike, I stopped for bagels this morning too roloma. I dropped my kid at DC this morning and realized he pooped on the way there. Yeah I needed to get her his back up outfit it was so bad. What a way to start a Friday. Gonna try and hit up Costco and the grocery store tonight since I'm solo tomorrow and probably gone all day Sunday as my dad is running the NY Marathon. |

We're having H's at the planetarium at the community college. Cheaper then renting a VFW or Elks, the kids get a show, and I can keep the menu easy and cheap. |

Hello! It has been busy with my mom here and I have been in the threads on GD but not here. I am so so glad it is Friday. My dad comes in tonight, and H will pick him up from the airport on his way home from work.

Guys, DD2 waved to me yesterday and said hi. Twice, so I know it wasn't a fluke. It was the most adorable thing ever but HOW. Too soon.

We always had so much fun! |

Thanks!! It's a continuation of the grant proposal I was working on over the summer (they got some $$ and need help planning/implementing the program). |
