Pretty good. Once in a while she complains about her throat but I think some of it is for attention. Her breath is very smelly and she has a low fever this morning, but we don’t need to contact the doctor unless it gets higher than 102 (I think that’s what the paperwork says). |

Morning! peachsmama Not cool on so many levels. No snow here, but we are supposed to get rain for the next few days. Boo. I just dropped M2 off and it wasn’t great. I got a note yesterday that it was time for him to move classes. I planned to ask questions today and visit this new classroom assuming he would start next week. Nope. He was all moved over already and his name was on the new sign in sheet. She said they already started his transition, but he was not happy about going in. He has never once cried at drop off, so that left me uneasy. I know he’ll be fine after a bit, but it was unexpected. Do they know you are moving? It sucks he couldn’t just stay where he was until you leave. I haven’t told them yet, but he couldn’t stay. They have a toddler A and Toddler B. He was one of the oldest and they had a bunch of new 1yo’s coming in, so they needed to move him. I’m ok with him moving up but more of a heads up would have been nice. It may have thrown him off because we went to his old class first. |

I would use Vaseline or aquafor for that. I would as well. And then once you have it under control, I lather Matthew with Cerve at every clothing change to keep his eczema at Bay. It gets so bad with the winters. We are having great luck with Eucrisa for Charlie’s eczema. It’s a non-steroidal rx. |

Morning!! I'm working from home because I had my 4 week return visit to the ortho. It was a great visit - the x-rays looked great and he said I can start wearing a shoe as soon as I'm comfortable with it, that there's no major risk of reinjury. I'll probably keep wearing the boot when I'm out (or the kids are around) for another week but I'm hitting the gym tomorrow to start the stationary bike!! I figure that's a good way to introduce pressure (versus weight) and movement at the same time. He also said I could start running in another month but I'll probably wait until at least April. I'm just so excited and relieved that it's all healing so quickly.
In other news, we're expecting snow and I'm shocked Colin's school didn't call an early dismissal. The boys are so excited, I hate to tell them it's supposed to be 50 degrees tomorrow and it'll all melt. They both seem to love the winter... DH's plan to become a VT ski family is looking pretty good, LOL.

nam2013 we use aquaphor body wash along with a dry skin lotion every night. When it flairs up we have a prescription cream we have to use or LO bleeds. Thank goodness E doesn’t get the rashes like LO did at this age.

Sorry I haven’t been around the past few days. I’m training another new person on my old team plus doing work for my current team. So lots of fun. But I have some great news....I have an interview for that manager position next Tuesday. So hopefully in a few weeks I find out if I have the spot or not.

C and I dropped B at school and made a Target run for some odds and ends. Just chatted with my sister for awhile and had a chocolate croissant I brought home from the Target Starbucks, so it’s been a nice morning.
Cold and rainy here, too—they’re getting snow an hour north of us and I hope it stays up there. My parents are supposed to fly in tmrw but they’re connecting thru DC or Baltimore, can’t remember, so the chances of their flight being cancelled or delayed are pretty high. They’ve already cancelled 1000 flights. So we shall see...hopefully they’ll be able to make it in this weekend!

Stay safe snow people. Sorry for the rough drop off lahdeedah. trtlcrzy, glad to hear H seems to be doing ok. peachsmama, WTH to your mom. wineallthetime enjoy your purge! I had a good class at TKD yesterday. I'm trying to get back into working out after being out of commission for a week from the flu. It's just not right that my body has to turn on me so hard for 1 week of no exercise. I'm super sore and I have no endurance. I can usually do a ton of ab exercises before I feel it the next day but I feel like I got punched in the gut. |

I'm annoyed with my husband. Weeks ago I asked him about making arrangements for this Thursday because M has talent show tryouts after school. He told me it wouldn't be a problem for him to leave work a little early so I didn't arrange any time off my schedule. I remind him about it yesterday and he tells me his coworker has to leave early so he has to cover her class.  So now I don't know what we're going to do. |

That’s good news, my dad has been getting alerts from Delta all morning. They’re flying super early so maybe the airline is preparing for the worst, idk. |

I keep the weather for DC/ Baltimore on my phone too since MH spends a lot of time there. It shows it stopping by Midnight |

Thanks girls for all the good advice! I brought Vaseline with me on vacation, so I’ll start there. If that doesn’t work I’ll see if I can find Aquafor somewhere.

He's only been home for 53 minutes but the arguing from my 5 y.o. might drive me over the edge. He is getting a little big for his britches today.
