Pumpkin patch for me 3 days a week and we have been busy. Busy. My body is so achy at the end of the day, but I love it. A is adjusting reasonably; mainly he clings to me when I am home.
Tomorrow is DS3’s 4th birthday. He is so excited and requested a cookie cake. He says “it has 5 cookies, 5 frostings, 4 candles and that is how you make it.” So looks like I’m baking tomorrow. I have not made a big cookie before, and definitely not 5.

We had a good weekend my way. Saturday my H and FIL went off to play golf so my MIL hung out. I didn't have to entertain both boys so that was nice. The boys hadn't seen them since the early summer so it was fun. Plus, we ordered out for dinner which meant that I didn't have to cook. On Sunday, we went grocery shopping, got ready for our week, and watched football. The weather was absolutely beautiful.
I am finally getting over a cold I can down with a week ago. Unfortunately, E got it so that wasn't great. Luckily it seems to not be too bad but we've done albuterol treatments just in case.
E seems to be going through a sleep regression. He still doesn't sleep through the night but he's been having a difficult time falling back asleep without a bottle. It's just a bottle of whole milk but I really thought I wouldn't need them anymore by this stage.

Oh no, ldubhawksfan! Hope DD feels better soon and heals up fast! We had a relatively quiet weekend. Committed a tactical error of buying N's Halloween costume in front of him; we happened to be at Target for other stuff and found an Elmo costume in his size, so we decided to grab it while we could. Cue N yelling "ELMO!" at the top of his lungs repeatedly He's started saying "Dabby" a lot, and I can't figure out what he means. It's not Daddy, or Abby, both of which he pronounces correctly all the time.

cakewench Saturday we walked to the grocery store as a family since we were out of bananas and DS was excited. As we walked into the store, he started chanting nana, nana, which turned into high pitch squeals of NANA, NANA when he saw the display. Luckily it was 7 am, so not very full, but the cashiers were laughing.

LOL any time I am with N in the store and we pick up something he usually associates with H (like his iced tea or a box of cheez-its), he starts yelling "DADA". Once he yelled it at the guy at the butcher counter, who just kinda stood there dumbfounded and was like "Uhhh... no kiddo, but thanks?".

Morning. Kids are both still asleep which is nice, but means I’m crunching into the30 mins mark to mobilize them soon, so that will be a shit show! Better finish my check in now! Ha
This weekend was ok. Sat night ILs watched the kids so dh and I went to see Downton Abbey. It was good. Yesterday we skipped church and laid low. Then went to the beach for a little bit. I bought some new shoes and wore them Sat night. I’m very excited for a comfy pair of wedges to make me feel a bit dressier.
DD is a trooper and doing well, but has had a few times of bumping her shoulder when running or playing with DS. I bought like $50 worth of button up shirts and then the specialist said on Friday hopefully it will be closer to 3-4 weeks and she will probably feel much better within the week because the bone s actually still re generating at this age. So it healing and will become kind of like a bone bump at the fracture, which will become less pronounced as her body continues to grow.
Oh yeah, and our damn dog went crazy on our trail walk yesterday and went barreling into the woods. Guess who didn’t come out with a donut still on his head? 😤 so I need to call the vet at 8 and see if they have his size. He didn’t even make it the 3 weeks so I’m going to spend another damn $25 on a neck pillow for him.

@ cakewench. -we got B a shark costume at target on Sunday. He babbled through the whole store at the top of his lungs..at 3pm.
I actually just use him as Marco Polo when we are at the store and H has the cart. Did not lose them in Costco Saturday.

We are in house selling hell right now. The woman buying our house came back with some crazy requests after the inspection. Our agent keeps trying to reach out to her agent to talk through options but he just ghosts her at every turn or says he'll talk to his client and get back to her but never does. Today, as we were waiting to send back our offer in regards to the her inspection requests, he sent over a cancellation notice for the deal. Before we even had a chance to respond. My agent was all "Hell no. He doesn't get to cancel this deal before we get a chance to respond." So we just sent a VERY good offer back to her, hoping it will change her mind. I think they kind of assumed we weren't going to give them much. We'll see what happens. I DO NOT want to go back on the market and deal with all of that again. We are sending out all of the positive vibes we can that she'll go ahead with our offer!
This has been dragging on for two weeks. Time to shut it down!

Selling is the worst roloma.it took us well over a week to negotiate a deal when we sold our first then another week plus after the inspection. I was ready for that fight again this summer, but was gratefully surprised when we did 100% of the initial negotiating via text message and what was equal to weeks back and forth the first time was wrapped up in only 8 hours. Then he waived the inspection. I'll go fight your buyer for. I'll kick her in the shins, just say the word.

Also, hi. The head cold I had has spiraled into a sinus infection so fierce my jaw has become misaligned and my molars have shifted. My face hurts so bad. I got antibiotics today so hopefully I finally feel better in the next day or two.
So yeah, happy Monday.

Carters is having a huge sale of Halloween costumes. 50% off and then another 25%. Not the largest selection but if you don't have any specific ideas it's not a bad place to look.

Were doing family costumes again. DS1 will be a Knight, ds2 a dragon (already have this costume from when DS1 was little!) and I’ll be a princess. H has to work as usual.
I’m currently in the pedicure chair. H and I decided to go to Las Vegas this year again for our anniversary (9 years tomorrow) because we got some amazing deals and are staying at the Bellagio! We leave tomorrow and I’m so excited. We plan to have a fancy dinner, see a show, spend some time at the spa and pool and of course gamble. We’re also heading to valley of fire and the Hoover dam. We come home Sunday so a quick trip but really, 4 days in Vegas is plenty lol.

We had a pretty low-key weekend too. MH went out of town yesterday/last night to hang out with some of his high school friends so the boys and I had dinner with my parents. Today we’re watching football and the Emmys. I made chocolate chip pumpkin bread, salsa, and have chili in the slow cooker. Nice relaxing Sunday! We really are the same person. I am planning on making chocolate chip pumpkin bread this weekend!

Chili also sounds great. I am not sure it is quite cool enough yet here for that, though. Not that that has stopped me from decorating and lighting fall candles.

For Halloween Ds1 wants to be a police officer and have C be a prisoner. I’m not super stoked on this idea but Ds1 is pretty adamant (he wants to be a police officer when he grows up) and I’m sure they will be cute.
