Oof. I am here 🙋🏻♀️
I am tired. We went on a date last night and DH was so tired we went home early bc he was practically falling asleep at the dinner table. Our nanny was like............. it’s early 🤦🏻♀️ I was so disappointed. The restaurant had an AMAZING gin & tonic last time I went w a friend so I ordered it again and it was so strong and not right. I was so bummed. But the rest of the food was delicious so yummm.
Saturday night I was so mad. N woke up only once but a fucking car alarm kept going off ALL NIGHT. and then all fucking day. I swear I was going to kill someone. It woke me up SO MANY TIMES. I wanted to cry. Finally sent a group text to all our neighbors and finally someone realized it was their visitors’ car and they took care of it. I was so grateful it was fixed before another night’s sleep was ruined.
This morning we got a bunch of snow. I was not expecting to get as much as we did and of course I overslept so of course I was so antsy about being late for work. Luckily I made it just in time to swipe in on time. Out of 13 people only 3 made it on time. Oof.
We’re getting hit with a terrible cold front the rest of the week. High on Wednesday is -12 and the windchill is going to make it around -40 to -50. I think we will stay in that day 😆😭

We have been on exactly 1 since J was born. Its going to be cold as heck here as well. -10 with real feel close to -25. Im hoping for a delay.

I think R is trying to go down to one nap a day, but she’s a hot mess after being awake for two hours. H isn’t happy about it, but I have no interest in her being awake at 8pm, so I need her to have just one nap. Girl gets about 14 hours of sleep total.
I had my annual gyn appointment today. I’ve been moody and angry. I asked for Prozac. Hopefully the pharmacy fills it tomorrow so I can start it on Wednesday. I haven’t taken an antidepressant for probably like 10 years. I’m a little nervous about side effects, but I’m sick of yelling at the kids and being unhappy. She was also like, “did you know you’ve gained 30 pounds in the past year.” Like, yes, yes I did know that. Thanks for the reminder.”

I know J was one of the last to go to one nap and that was in october. While it took some getting used to for me I now love it. Im super jealous R sleeps 14 hours per day. J has always been on the low end of sleep and gets around 12 hours now. 10 at night plus a 2 hour nap. As for the Prozac...ive been on zoloft since J was 8 weeks old. I had planned to wean myself off when he turned 1 but the anxiety was killing me. Im still taling it now thiugh im at the lowest dose and im happy with that. It helps just to take the edge off. |

I am living a sleep deprived miserable existence. Soo bare minimum of things getting done here. Both kids have been getting up a ridiculous amount of times a night- the 4 yr old bc he is in a scared of the dark phase, and L bc who knows. I am retrying sleep training as we speak.
She was still mostly falling asleep while nursing so I’m hoping switching around the bedtime routine and getting her to fall asleep in the crib will help get us back to STTN. Last night I went to bed at 11, and then both kids were up at 11:30. It’s awful every night and I’m over it.

pennylane, I’m so sorry they are both waking so much. Sleep deprivation is so mentally depleting. I hope they get back to sleeping better. I swear the 4 yo is the bigger pain in the ass sometimes when she goes through phases of waking MOTN, ugh

Ns had a runny nose the last couple days but he’s been so sleepy I decided to let him sleep as long as he wants today. He woke himself up at 9am (went down at 9p and STTN omg thank you baby Jesus) and has been asleep since about 1:30. It’s 3:56. I feel like if i let him keep sleeping he won’t fall asleep tonight around his 8:30 bedtime. But if I wake him up I’m depriving him of what is clearly much needed rest. Ahhh

Ahhh I wake J from his naps about half of the time. I have a firm 4pm wake up time because bedtime is 8pm. He usually goes down between 130 and 2. We never have to wake him in the am though. He is generally between 530 and 6...ugh |

Ahhh I’m team let them sleep usually, especially when sickness is involved. Bedtime might suck but it’s 1 night. Of course I stress the whole time she is asleep that bedtime is screwed so can’t win! 😂 |

Stay warm everyone in the frigid parts of the US. ❄️❄️
Omg L is getting her canines in- it cannot be over soon enough. She has been eating all day long the past couple days, and if not snacking she’s chewing on anything and everything. I caught her chewing the edge of the couch cushions! And the crib.
In a funny anecdote- she decided to wash her hair in the dogs water dish yesterday. It was funny to see, but she definitely got a bath after.

This is so funny you say that, M is getting them too and MH made a comment that she looked weird last week like a bulldog with an underbite or something. He’s like why is she doing that?! I’m thinking it has to be the teeth lol. She is also yelling out screaming randomly MOTN so I’m wondering if it’s from that too. |

Sorry, I've been kind of absent lately. I hope the sleeping and teething get better for everyone. I don't know how you people in the negative temperatures do it! It's about (positive) 20 degrees here today and I feel like it's so cold.

R has been getting her canines for weeks. She won’t let me really feel, but I can definitely see a lower one below the gum line. She won’t really chew on anything and just keeps her hands in her mouth.

I've been absent lately. Sorry ladies.
It's -24° here with a wind chill of -50°. We all have cabin fever and I'm running low on ideas so we're watching a movie. After this I'll probably break out the shaving cream, throw the kids in the tub, and let them "paint".

Good luck everyone in the artic blast, it is 11 degrees here but at least it's in positive territory.
My toddlers are killing me. J is getting better with sleep but my oldest has regressed hardcore this week. No potty, super grabby. I went to a meeting at work yesterday just to get a break. Seriously I went to my college faculty meeting to hide from my toddlers!

Hi from your lamest Aug 17 member I’m really active on a Facebook group. So I forget to come here , general here to HIH. We should be a Facebook group. I’m tired and working more and see my IRL friends much less. My DD is so giant and smart I can’t believe we are coming up on 18 months. This is a fun age, most of the time. How are you feeling and how many weeks are you now?! |

Its cold here too. -4 windchill -20. No school today for me. We were the only dostrict with school yesterday. When the kids got out the windchill was -28 so the superintendent is going to hear about that. J is suffering feom cabon fever since he hasnt been out in a few days. He has been a wild man.
Our closing on our house has been delayed a second time. I just want to sell it and im tired of all the delays.
We get to start taking j to toddler time at the library in february so im excited abiut that. He loves other kids but is in a i hate adulys who arent mom and dad phase right now.
