Oh man tgrimes. You need a Lysol bubble around your house. Those poor kids!!! And you of course! We’re you or your H sick a lot when you were little? Nope. I would love a Lysol bubble. Can you make that happen? |

Shit tgrimes, hopefully she’s ok today. flamingo Selling things online is frustrating for sure, that’s great you’ve had so much interest, hopefully it’s gone today. One time when we were selling our old living room chairs we had them in the garage and the people came to get them, they started bargaining on everything in our garage! We had a pile to go to goodwill and ended up selling most of it to them. |

MH coughed all night long and then M started vomiting close to 4. I’m so tired of this. And also just really tired. lol. NOOOO! I think you need a mimosa and then a nap. I’m drinking coffee right now. I have a feeling MH will sleep another couple of hours. 🙄 Then I’ll start the mimosas. |

Morning! Dh should be home any minute from his weekend away. N has Sunday school soon, then church. Then we are heading to SILs for her gender reveal lunch. Not a big party, just us, ILs and BILs parents so it should be nice.

Wtf? No good things happen after 2am. Hasn’t he watched HIMYM? Lol. Right!? He kinda got stuck. He was driving his cousin and her bf home (and their daughter) and they're basically irresponsible teenagers in 45 year old bodies. He said he couldn't get them to leave. They were high and drunk and then they fell asleep on the couch and he couldn't get them to get up and get out. Sounded like a delightful time. Your husband is nicer than me. I would have left them, assuming they were in a safe location. DNW to be a chauffeur at 4 a.m! |

tgrimes I’ll get to work on the bubble and send it your way. Or at the very least, healing vibes Also, forget the mimosas. I think you need to go straight to the red wine.

Morning all.
B went to my Mom’s yesterday so since he wasn’t here to wake us up before 7am, Julia took the reigns and was up at 6:45am when she normally sleeps until 7.30am. Well played kids...

jewels Thanks for the recommendation for the Graco Tranzitions car seat!!! I traveled near and far to see it in person but it wasn’t available so I took a chance and just ordered online and I love it! It’s exactly what I wanted, not clunky looking and comfortable for B. Installed it yesterday and B said it great. Thanks again

We got so much snow last night! I bet we have 6-8 inches! We have cousins coming over to sled in an hour. I just got up. A left at 7:30 yesterday morning and didnt get home until 1 am. For a tractor pull.. I texted him at 11 and said "you're getting up with the kids. Don't wake me before 10 am" I slept until 9:30. I'm still exhausted and feel sick. Hes going out to plow so they can get up the drive way. We have a birthday party later for bil.

I have something posted for MH and have had a ton of people ask if it is still available. I say yes it is....then crickets. |

But yes, I love how ‘slim’ it is. |

Ugh tgrimes. Im so sorry, i hope no one else gets it and its over quick! And you get a nap! H and I somehow slept until 9. It was great, I think we were so tired from shoveling our driveway. We got about 12" of snow...it was a lot of work. We may need to leave the house today. Evie is driving me crazy. Although she said she doesn't feel good, she's just as annoying as usual. |

That might indicate it was a food allergy. Aren't one of your boys allergic to peanuts? I hope he feels better today Yes, the little guy is. But S has had no issues before and all he had leading up to it was a yogurt (same brand /flavor he’s had almost daily since he was 2) and a handful of animal crackers. I dunno. But of it doesn’t come back I’ll just chalk it up to one of the many unknown Mysteries out there I feel like everyone caught something around Christmas and the symptoms are all over the map. Hope it’s short lived. |

Cadence and I are up, but we've just been laying in bed since 8. She just said she wants pancakes for breakfast, so we may go out.
Oh, and the friend that texted yesterday about going to the park with her sick kid... Yeah, she texted this morning and it's strep. Really glad I said no yesterday.

Time is short of magically standing still this morning. I went to Aldi, got a hot coffee on the way home, put everything away, made the kids cucumber sandwiches for a snack (highly recommend), and am now looking at driveway porn (so many choices!).
I started You last night and I really like it!! I kind of want to shoo everyone out so I can watch more!!

All ready to go and just hanging out with DH and the boys for an hour before hitting the road. The C's are so funny to watch, Chase literally repeats everything Cool says, word for word.

Cadence agreed to a frozen waffle, so we didn't have to go anywhere and I'm back in bed.
The kitten unrolled an entire roll of paper towels and it's all over the living room. I'm waiting for mh to get up to deal with. This kitten is freaking psycho.

Well now I'm going to go check out this Graco Transitions seat...
eta: speaking of, has anyone put their N13 kid in a highback booster yet? Or is everyone still in a 5-point harness-style seat. In looking at them, the height limit for the 5-point is usually 49-50" and B is right there.

flamingo, I just recently switched both girls to high back boosters. They love them and sit in them really well. There was a short adjustment phase for them to learn how to buckle them on their own. They take up so much less space than their old monster car seats. They have also been able to sleep in them comfortably upright with the head rest and remain in a safe position.
