+whatever to currently kid-shopping. I placed an order with Gap this morning for C, and I'm perusing Belk and a couple other sites now. My parents are coming in Wednesday (!!!) so Mom and I are going to go out shopping Thursday and I'll load up for B at Dillards. Sorry, DH. It's that time of year!

I just ordered my kiddos a load of clothes the other week from Gymboree. With their closing sale, I feel like I got some good deals.

I’m about to place a huge Carter’s order for the kiddos. chrisy01 was nice enough to give us a million of L’s HMDs so X is pretty well-stocked for Summer this year and maybe next. |

That’s really cute about the “daddy” doll, @73jewels. The boys will be so thrilled to see him!

I have $150 worth of stuff in my Carter's cart. I do have a coupon for $30 off ... so that will help a bit. I will probably pull the trigger tomorrow. |

Hi! I am busy working today. But am very happy that the sun is out and it is above freezing. I think that spring is actually on the horizon.
This weekend we got a ton of stuff done around the house so that felt good. This morning S had 5 seizures in an hour at school after I dropped her off so they had to administer her emergency meds. We have an appt with the sleep specialist on Thursday afternoon so I am hopeful that will be helpful in getting her quality of sleep better to hopefully reduce these morning seizures.

Bless her heart lfig, I hope the sleep specialist will have some insight and ideas. Forgive me if you've answered/mentioned this recently, but how are S's hands doing? Any improvement since the infusion treatment? |

Any improvement since the infusion treatment? I'm not sure. There are times I think I see some slight improvement. But I am not sure if it is wishful thinking, or maybe it's really getting better. She has another treatment in a week, so maybe after that we will be able to tell for real if it's getting better. |

Hello! R had her 9 month checkup. Her weight is the same % as before but her height dropped dramatically. Doctor didn’t seemed to concerned about it.
I bought some things from Carters yesterday. I went to the store to get them but The sale online was cheaper. I’m still glad I went because some of the items did not look as good in person.

chrisy01, has it been the same person measuring her each time? Cadence has a weird spot on her growth chart because we had a different nurse who measured her differently than every other time.

All but the time before. This time I feel like she scrunched herself up. So I don’t think it was a good time to do it. Doctor thought it was fine so I’m not worried yet. He was impressed with other things. LO also has a time period where he was below average for height. So it could just be how my kids grow. 🤷♀️ |

I was just looking at the growth charts last week and H apparently shrunk almost an inch in a 2 week span. 😂 |

I saw it’s the last week to buy online at Gymboree, so I added a few shirts to my cart for summer camp/daycare, but they will just hang out there until they do free shipping, if they do free shipping this week. I hate to pay for shipping.

Quickly checking in. DST is the worst. My parents got here yesterday so my Mom wanted to get a peak at the morning routine but she walked in to find DH sitting in the glider with Chase trying to go back to sleep on his shoulder and Colin lying on me in the middle of his floor. Poor kiddos.  We fly out tomorrow so I've been slammed all day, everyone is trying to get a bit of my time before I leave. But I think I'm in as good of shape as possible to leave for the remainder of the week, which is about all I could ask for. Well, that and for planes to stop falling out of the damn sky. I need to stop paying attention to the news. |

I hate to pay for shipping. I will sit on this bench all day long with you. I added a pair of $1.79 sale socks to my Gap cart today b/c I needed $1 more to qualify for free shipping. I will also sit there and enter coupons for Carters/Osh Kosh til the cows come home trying to maximize my Carters cash, reward $, 15/25% discount, etc. and still get free shipping. It's kind of a sickness, I know it's rigged against me but I try and fight the man anyway  |

I need to do an assessment of our spring clothes. J tends to size down in shorts, so I think we are in decent shape from last year. I do need to go through the hand me down bins for N to see what we are working with before I'm allowed to shop for her..

Mom and I decided to tackle cleaning my house ourselves. One of my friends from childhood was in town so she came to help and it seriously looks amazing. My mom is a whiz at getting all the stickers off the windows. Tori got down and scrubbed all the paint off the floors and mopped 5 times! The amount of construction dust was just insane. She would mop half the kitchen, then dump the water and get new. It was getting dirty so fast. By the fifth time she could do the whole floor on one bucket. I got some small shelves put together and most of my dishes washed and put away. I washed all my new towels and put those away. I'm so excited to move in. It finally feels like a "home" and not a construction zone.

S ended up having 9 seizures today. That’s a far cry from her normal 2ish a day. She seems fine tonight other than a little extra tired. They wipe her out sometimes.
Trigger warning:
Then I just found out that a friend from HS lost her battle with cancer tonight. She has 4 young kids. Cancer sucks.

I also hurt my shoulder somehow this weekend and it’s killing me. Currently sitting with a heating pad on it.
And Aunt Flo has come to visit for the first time in over 5 years (thanks to my IUD change 🙄).
Basically today sucks.
