MH is sick. He has some sort of stomach thing. I hope it’s just something he ate so none of us get it- so far we are all okay *knocks on all the wood*.

Dh said the interview went well. So we shall see.
I'm pretty sure ds2 won't be sleeping through the night until I stop nursing. He just cannot settle back down without it in the middle of the night. He basically only nurses from one boob and we've cut back on nursing sessions. I tend toward oversupply/clogged ducts so I have to go slow. I'm not ready to stop yet though 🤷

65mph winds this morning and it's trash day. Cue H running down the street trying to catch our recycling and bins. Plus, the cats were freaking out and puked everywhere. I'm just praying we don't lose power

Fingers crossed you don't lose power quinn. We had a 2-hour delay this morning. It was nice sleeping in a little. |

quinn the visual of you H chasing trash cans is funny, but I'm sure not if I was the one experiencing it! Fx you don't lose power! We had crazy winds last night too, the house was making some interesting noises!

Hi all. Not much going on here. Just trying to make it through the days really. I'm sorry for everyone that is sick or dealing with kid sickness or ridiculously cold weather. We had some ice yesterday but it seems to be warming up a bit here.
Kids are doing ok. I think all of L's first molars are in so we have a bit of a reprieve there. Things were rough for awhile there.
I haven't tried utensils too much with L but he seems to want mine when we eat so I probably should.

C woke up at 3am screaming and sobbing with a fever. Half my teaching team has dropped with the pukes this week so couldn't justify staying home. She was at 102.5 when I left and just crying for her blanket and to lay on me. Ugh. Poor thing, hope she's doing better today. |

Afternoon, I took today off to go to fil's appt. Hopefully getting some cleaning done too. Dropped the kiddo off at DC and grabbed a latte on my way back. Appt went well, they are going to get some home help for him. My MIL is driving me crazy though watching us come and go and asking if everything is ok (she knows what is going on). She was just talking about hospice care and planning for his funeral like it's happening tomorrow. He is not ready to go yet and is trying to get better to continue with chemo. It's a good thing she hasn't been around him I could only imagine what she'd say to him.

I haven't tried utensils too much with L but he seems to want mine when we eat so I probably should. I just bought a toddler set from Walmart that looks like regular utensils since H seems to want ours even when he has his own. I'm hoping the shiny metal will entice him to use his own lol |

laurensc927 I'm glad he's able to get some home care services and the appt went well. Hopefully he can keep going with the chemo. I'm sorry you guys are going through this. I assume MIL and FIL are not together right? Weird that she's talking about hospice and funeral planning, but not surprising given her history.

He basically only nurses from one boob and we've cut back on nursing sessions. I tend toward oversupply/clogged ducts so I have to go slow. I'm not ready to stop yet though 🤷 Same. He only nurses at night. But when he wakes he screams and screams until I give In. And when he screams he wakes the DD (4) and that’s a disaster. I’m ready/not ready at the same time. So for now, I’ll keep on. |

I assume MIL and FIL are not together right? Weird that she's talking about hospice and funeral planning, but not surprising given her history. Correct they've been separated for ~19 years. She thinks he's being selfish letting his son take time off of work to handle all of this since he can't care for himself. This from the woman that asked me the first time I met her, after MH and I had only been dating a few months if she could move in with us when she was older and couldn't care for herself. I of course said yes b/c what else do you say. I should have known then. And yes she still brings up that I said yes 15 years later! |

Utensils. C loves using them but she makes the worst mess and I hate it. But she'll snatch them from you and if you try to not let her use them she gets really mad. In weird news though, she's like, basically potty training..? Anything E does she HAS TO DO and she started by sitting on the little potty after E would go. Then one night before bath time she sat down while naked and peed. And now she will just wander into the bathroom on her own and I go in and take off her diaper and she just goes. I'm totally flabbergasted by it. I mean she still wears a diaper and uses that like 95% of the time, but my guess is by 18m I can have this kid day trained and I'm freaking pumped it. She's a ridiculous blabbermouth too. As for me, my job is slowly killing me. It's so hard right now. I'm so tired. 😮 |

I should remember when because DD is only 3, but molars still seem always away for DS! They are so tough, so I’m glad it’s behind you! |

She's a bit warm right now but not enough for me to be concerned as she eats Cheetos. |

Congrats Mr grumpycat! I think that is the perfect single story to sum up your MIL laurensc927. When she first met you she asked if she could move in when she was old, you politely said of course, and now that's what she'll remind you until the end of time. Glad you are able to take time to help your DH and FIL, I'm sure it means a lot to both of them! |
