Good morning! C has a cough. It sounds horrible- super congested- but he seems to be feeling okay. I kept ds1 home from school yesterday because he was coughing and snotting all over the place too. Hoping I don’t catch it!
I need to cut him off bottles cold turkey. He does okay with sippies, but I can tell he’s definitely got a preference for bottles. Unless you guys all agree with my mom and say he’s still just a baby so it’s fine??

N would NOT go to bed last night. I finally got him to sleep around 9:15 with some snuggles and Sesame Street on the tv. We went in this morning for his pre-op physical and in the least shocking news this year, he has another double ear infection. Thank god he is getting tubes in 11 days. This should be the last round of oral antibiotics for a while now, hopefully! Saturday, the 26th, will be his last dose and surgery is scheduled for the 28th.
I have a lot to do at work but this week has been crazy so I am choosing to have a lazy day. I will buckle down tomorrow and chunk out a lot of it. I just needed a break.

blabbermouth absolutely not. We have enough laundry without adding cloth diapers. It’s not that bad lol. I adore you for thinking so highly of me and my laundry skills. 😬 Z pooped in his underwear, they no longer live here. 🤷🏻♀️

While I do not agree with your mom we're still on bottles over here because it's the only way to get him to drink consistently... We're trying lol

Good news is it’s not another ear infection! Bad news is it’s likely something viral (that explains pretty much everything), so we just have to ride it out. Oof.

Hi. DS cut his 5th tooth today and also stirred at 4 am with a barking cough. Full on croup cough tonight. Fml.
Also for the second night in a row, we have come home to dog diarrhea and one of us has been scrubbing the rug. Tonight it was me. Plus I started my period. After a long week of little sleep, not anticipating much tonight, and hosting this weekend, I’m in a pretty bitchy mood tonight.
Oh yeah, also I came home at lunch because friend who is living with us mentioned a window leaking when she left. Two of our new windows that were installed last fall are leaking water on the 4th day of storms. Wtf?!!

quinn I’m sorry. clucky gl with pt!! Peer pressure is so helpful with it! And if he is dry all night, that’s great. My PT DD isn’t overnight still. We kind of jumped all in with underwear at school one week and she did great. How old is he again? cdnfarmgirl sorry about the uti. Boo No words other than mama and wawa here really. I feel like dd has a few more words regularly and was definitely signing more than DS is at this point. Still not walking. But he dances a ton. 🤷🏼♀️

Yesterday was N's 5th birthday! How is my little boy so big? We just had an immediate family celebration but will have a larger family gathering on the 27th instead.
Tomorrow my H is taking the boys to his parents for the day. I am staying home. I need to go grocery shopping because we have a HUGE storm expected on Sunday. But mostly, after having both boys sick, then taking care of my mom when she was sick, and now my H has a sinus infection (he doesn't really need me to take care of him) I'm a bit burnt out. Add 14 students on top of it. My stress levels are through the roof and my temper has been really short. I need some time for me. So, he's taking the boys and I'm going to take a bath, give myself a facial, and watch some mind-numbing tv. I CAN'T WAIT!!!!

Dh took ds1 to his 4 year well visit this morning. My house is so wonderfully quiet with just ds1. So peaceful. They should be back soon though lol.

ldubhawksfan not quite 3.5. He has shown interest before in the potty, just didn't want to wear underwear. Luckily, there are some magicians at his school and they got him excited. They also helped PT DS1.

Hugs, ldubhawksfan! Happy Birthday, N! sarahandben108N's been clingy and grumpy today, but has inhaled anything I put in front of him, so hopefully that's a good sign. Still has a fever. H came home a little early so I could WFH a few hours. Diaper changes haven't been fun but at least the rash doesn't seem to be getting worse, knock on wood. Hopefully he'll start feeling better in another day or so.

I trained someone today so I couldn't play earlier 🙁
H and ds1 are going to a monster truck jam tonight- ds1 is so excited!
Ds2 is still feeling crappy, hopefully the antibiotics kick in soon. My cold is full force tonight so I'm watching TV and sippy on a hot toddy. I've never had one before but I'm hoping it's a miracle cure!

Enjoy your hot toddy jules1614, only good thing about being sick. Jojo has a bit of a cold too. Runny nose and cough when she sleeps, but nothing too bad yet thankfully. It's been a busy week so I'm glad it's Friday. I'm going to try and get DH to get up with DD tomorrow so I can sleep a bit longer, although it's pretty loud once she's up!

Happy Saturday everyone! We don’t have much planned for today- it snowed last night and is super cold out. We have dh’s work Xmas party tonight so the ILs are taking the boys overnight. Should be a fun time- open bar and a fancy dinner! Although I’m still doing whole30 so I’ll try to behave a little bit.

We finally got a decent amount of snow. I'm hoping H will take ds1 out for a bit to burn some energy. Ds2 and I still have our colds so we'll be staying in!

Ds2 was up from 10pm-1am last night. I am so tired. Ds1 woke up around 2am because his arm hurt. Then again at 4am saying he had peed a little in his bed. 😴😴😴 Dh took ds1 to a birthday party so I'm enjoying the quiet again. Eating a quick lunch and then going to jump in the shower. No plans for this afternoon other than getting all of ds1's energy out and maybe running a couple errands.

Ds1 told the birthday girl's mom that he was only attending the party for the food. I've literally never related more to my kid in my life. Thankfully, she is our neighbor and adores him. And understands how "honest" he is ... 😂

Going to visit with my mom or parents so they can see Jojo walk 🤷 and we'll probably go for lunch. Meeting some friends later for an early dinner

One of our good customers wanted his son (27yo) to learn how to sell antiques like us so he is paying us to have him stay here for the weekend to learn. I was kinda uncomfortable with the idea at first but, you guys, this man is like ridiculously attractive, so I'm good 😂

We did our usual Sunday errands today. The snow for us started around 11 but right now it's basically normal snow for us. The heavy stuff comes later but we should get upwards of two feet.
I got in a 5 mile run and we'll go to my brother's tonight for dinner. That's really it for us.
