The inlaws picked the kids and I up at 8 and we're almost to the shore. I had no desire to wait until later and sit in holiday traffic with a toddler, infant, and dog. Mh and Indy will come down later tonight after work.
I'm excited for a long weekend! We're probably staying until Wednesday.

Have fun, Lakes! I'm just here, pumping my life away until my next meeting. Who was it that wanted my milk spreadsheet? How is it working out for you? My H took PTO today and is (hopefully) at home party-prepping. I have a short day today (summer hours), which give me enough time to get a 90 minute (!) massage and still get the girls from daycare on time. Hello self-love  I got a new fit bit this weekend. It is a sad, sad reminder that I do not sleep much. |

Lakes have fun!! @judyblume I feel you on pumping my life away. I am sad I missed an ashtog sighting yesterday, sounds like you have a lot on your plate. Don't forget to take care of yourself. I am just spread so thin lately, I worked a 14 hour shift with no lunch yesterday and I have a feeling it will be more of the same today and this weekend. I am trying to stay positive but I am so exhausted and I miss being with my baby. I feel like I am missing so much with him.

There this a group next to us with ten kids, ages 1 to 10ish and not nearly enough responsible adults. It's super windy with rip currents and they are being so lackadaisical with supervising the kids and toddlers in the surf that it's giving me a heart attack.
I'm judging.

Now it's time to think of yourself and that sweet, sweet freedom. I was sad to stop breastfeeding with ds but once I had that freedom I loved it. I'm super excited to be done with it for good with dd. Which makes me feel guilty. I don't want to wish her baby days away but it will be nice to not be tethered to a nursing baby for outings. |

Lakes, enjoy the shore! I don't blame you at all for leaving early. And I would be judging too. As a former lifeguard I sometimes find it hard to relax near the water. I will always be a helicopter parent when water is involved. judyblume14, enjoy that massage, it sounds wonderful. And I hear you about pumping.  ambiguousmango, that sounds awful. I hope your schedule slows down soon. Big hugs. I'm working from home today, which is nice because besides a few small issues it's been quiet. I'm hoping to get some laundry done and a Target run in before the end of the day. I'm so torn on weaning too. I'm so sick of pumping and having it get in the way of life on the weekends but I love being able to provide the little milk I do produce. My supply took another hit this week after my period and I'm not sure if it's going to bounce back. At this point 16-18 ounces per day makes me wonder if it's worth it. Otherwise some friends and I are going to the Ed Sheeran concert tomorrow. I'm so excited to go, and then the next day we're heading to the cabin until Tuesday. Looking forward to some family time and meeting my 2 week old niece!

Thank you! The closer I get to be done the more I look forward to it. She is eating food much more now so I don't feel as guilty. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

judyblume14 it was me on the pump spreadsheet! It was the perfect guide and I really appreciate it. I do not appreciate my declining pump output though. Under-supervised kids at the beach terrifies me Lakes!
