I put the baby down for his nap this afternoon and 3 minutes after I left the room and he was asleep fire trucks went by and woke him. He thought that 3 minutes was sufficient so he did not have a second nap which hasn't happened in months. Now he is a flailing mess. I am not looking forward to tonight.

clementine, I hope L feels better. N had a similar bug the past two weeks and it FINALLY went away. Just try not to let him get dehydrated if he's not eating as much. I'm in a grumpy, hating everything, kind of mood. And my parents are eating dinner every night while they're kitchen gets redone and that is not helping my mood. Thanks! He’s nursing okay, not great, but he can hardly breathe through his nose so it’s like suck suck suck, pop off to breathe, on repeat. Add in the coughing every couple of swallows and he gets frustrated so quickly and gives up. This is A right now too. The cough is sounding better than it was a few days ago but I just want her to feel better. |

So my town is experiencing freezing rain today. I went to go buy fabric to make A’s stocking. As I was walking to the fabric store, I slipped on the ice, fell back and hit my head on the sidewalk so hard I blacked out for a second. I dropped A’s car seat ( I’m ever so thankful that she hasn’t outgrown it yet) and some random lady stopped her car to make sure I was ok. Fabric store owner made sure I sat down and I texted H to come pick me up. Took me to the hospital. A is fine but I have a mild concussion...
Yup.
Tl;dr - ice sucks and I have a concussion.

We had our wrap up call with the sleep consultant last night. Things have vastly improved and I am so thankful for her help, although I’m a little worried not to have her daily input and suggestions. More sleep is obviously amazing, but I’ve noticed that I’m way less anxious in the evenings. It’s like I would just dread bedtime and get super nervous the closer it got because I knew it was going to be rough. And I couldn’t sleep well because I was just waiting for him to wake up through the night. It’s been a looonnngggg 9 months in that respect. But things are looking up! L had his first night of sleeping 12 hours straight the other night. Woo!

The holidays were great! I stayed out until 3:20am on BF and thankfully Owen slept until 6:40 or I certainly wouldn’t have been able to make it through the day! H took C with him to Bass Pro at 5am and then to her dance class so I only had 1 (non mobile🙌🏻) baby for the morning.
His baptism was Sunday and it was perfect. He looked so sweet in his little outfit😊 the party was great and the leftover cake has been 👌🏻👌🏻

That's so scary whatsit! I just dropped a full laundry basket on E's head. It only had swaddle blankets and face cloths, thankfully. It could have been so much heavier. We both cried but she seems ok. MOTY. |

Yeay nevertoomanyshoes! Congrats! Did I miss how soon you get possession? clementine, I’m so glad the sleep has gotten better for you! ... kinda jealous really  leatherpants your workout room sounds awesome! And so glad your basement is done. And thank you ladies. I’m feeling a bit better today. Head still hurts a bit and still kinda “fuzzy”. Neck and shoulders are definitely sore - so I must have lifted them and tensed up when I fell. Might have saved my head a bit with that.... |

nevertoomanyshoes I am so happy about your house! Congrats. clementine it is so great to hear that the sleep consultant helped you guys. 12 hours is amazing  leatherpants I would DIE for a workout room. Jealous! I'm doing well over here. Something in the last week has clicked because Lou is devouring food. Like, gag reflex suddenly gone and she can't eat enough finger foods. In the last week we have gone from half-puffs to meatballs, corn kernels, black beans, stewed tomatoes, cornbread, canteloupe, etc etc etc. So much fun! I can't believe my baby is 8 months old. Its bittersweet for sure. DH had a 4th interview (1st in person) with that new job on Tuesday and said it went well. We're praying. It would be a 15 minute commute (vs. his current 90 min) and I think having that extra time with him would be life changing for all of us.

whatsit, take care of yourself. A good friend of mine suffered a concussion recently and was surprised by the lingering effects. I hope you recover quickly and are able to rest!

Ya I’m actually surprised I feel as bad as I do. I don’t feel comfortable driving quite yet so it’s been interesting. |

whatsit thanks! We aren’t sure yet, officially it’s late Jan but could be earlier as the house is empty and we are keen and ready. All in the hands of our lawyers and the banks really.

Cool, coool, cool. The baby actually slept for a bit last night but now thinks 3:30 is morning and right now everything sucks. I’m sure she will go back to sleep just in time for her sister to wake up.

Ya I’m actually surprised I feel as bad as I do. I don’t feel comfortable driving quite yet so it’s been interesting. Yes, my friend was surprised as well. He and his family had no idea how much a concussion could linger. But the takeaway from that is that he did get better! It just took longer than he thought. So if that happens to you too, don't panic and rest as much as you need. |

Over here, 5am has become the wakeup time - for both kids and I would like Santa to bring me a hotel room all to myself until they knock that shit off |
