E has had a word explosion over the last week and is now mimicking animal sounds (which she seemed to be refusing to do before lol), but she’s nowhere near identifying colors!

quinn, DD does say the word 'colour' and we think maybe 'yellow', but we're not sure on that one, haha. Morning everyone, happy Friday! A bunch of kids were puking at daycare yesterday, so I really hope DD has avoided it. She's been having weird poops this week, so maybe that's all she'll get, fingers crossed! When I dropped her off at 7:45 she was the only one there and there are usually about 5 kids there before her.

Hi. Dd had swim lessons and they want to move her up a level so I need to make sure the earlier class time won’t conflict with the kids’ dentist appts next Friday.
Mil just called and offered to watch both kids overnight. We don’t have anything planned so I’m strangely resistant. We didn’t leave dd overnight until she was 18 mo once and then until DS was born.

We just had a date night Sunday night too. Idk, I wanted to talk dh into going to a local mtn for snow fun, so that wouldn’t work. I appreciate their offer, but just don’t know about implementing it with 24 hr notice. We are ridiculous, I know.

I was completely floored Cora knows yellow and seems to be picking up on green. Yay for word explosions! It's so fun! Cora is saying new words everyday and I love it.

Howdy! I picked up an OT night shift last night on the pp side. It felt nice to have a shift where I didn’t feel like an incompetent twit. Plus my friends were working! Came home, slept for 3 hours, picked up DS and went to our dentists appointments. Then went to get groceries. My parents dropped off dinner and then bathed the kids! DD2 choked on a piece Of cabbage and proceeddd to vomit everywhere. Blech. And. Now I’m going to bed to return to the room and gloom if L&D tomorrow.
Oh and I also called to reschedule DD2’s 15m spot. Yea they’re booking into May. So I said forget it, I have zero concerns for the well baby part just give her the shot (or let me do it) and she can be seen at 18m. Shot is March 11th and 18m appointment is June 3rd. DS will go in for his 5 year well visit too.

I wish N would start to talk. He says mama and increasing decibels of volume and screechiness. He points and grunts and screams all flipping day long. I can’t take it much longer.
I remember my other two doing this too. They both only really started talking around 20 months but then have not shut up since 😂😂.

Happy Saturday everyone! C has really gotten into books lately. Last night he made me read the same one over and over. He kept signing “more” and pointing at it- wouldn’t let me read anything else. We’re going to a Play 60 event today so that should be fun!

cdnfarmgirl C doesn’t talk much yet either. Just “mama” and sometimes he’ll say “nack” for snack. He can sign all done, more, and please. But he mostly still screeches or talks gibberish.

The very hungry Caterpillar is his favorite and I'm so sick of that damn book lol

We got a red alert for 80mph gusts tomorrow night into the morning. Last time this happened (last year) we lost so many trees and and our shed was hit by a tree and had to be rebuilt. We also lost power for days. I'm terrified. Going to the store to get supplies today. I wish we had a generator

The ride was pretty uneventful last night. We are most likely going to be snowed in until Monday though- there is a blizzard warning until 6pm tomorrow. I took off of work so it's no big deal, but I was kind of hoping that I could get home Sunday and send the kids to daycare and have a me day. It'll be nice to spend the extra time with my sister though.

Any good airport/travel tips? C will be 16 months when we go to Florida in a few weeks. We’ll need a stroller - a small umbrella stroller should be sufficient- can those be gate checked so we can use it in the airport?
