J is a whiny mess and I have no idea why. M is being hateful to him and doesnt want him near him or talking around him. Can't wait to drop them at the sitters in an hour..
MJ is in a great mood and super smiley.
Just laundry and organizing from the party today. Need to do some paperwork too.
What does everyone have going on?

Morning! Nothing exciting here. H left for Nebraska this morning for the week, so it's just me and Evie. She has picture day tomorrow and I'm trying to decide if I come into work late so I can make sure she looks good when dropped off, or trust her and my mom. I wanted to get her something new and cute to wear yesterday, but she wouldn't have it, so I just want to make sure her hair looks good. My boss said it's fine if I'm late, so I think I'll just plan on that.

Morning! Mommy and daughter date this morning & grocery run after. Dd refused to nap, so I had to forfeit my hour alone. I need to eat more healthy, so I made a huge fruit salad & chicken and veggies are on the menu for tonight.

M wanted to walk to school this morning and on my way back to the house I almost got hit by a car in the crosswalk...with the crossing guard. WTF people? Pay attention. Not only is it a school zone and you're speeding but it's a crosswalk.

Morning!
Shopped the Lilly sale this morning for C, took B to speech, and am about to make his before-school snack. Bus will be here at 10:45. I think I'll just be doing housework today.

Not only is it a school zone and you're speeding but it's a crosswalk. This is a regular topic of discussion on a local FB page. People constantly complain about how others don't pay attention at the crossing and almost hit kids and the crosswalk guard. I'm so glad I don't drive around one daily! |

I have to go through 3-4 depending in either direction I go. It's a pet peeve of mine when I see people speed in a school zone. |

Morning. My body isn’t sure wtf it’s doing. I’ve been having bad cramps like it’s my period but no bleeding. This after surgery nonsense is fun. Both girls are at school. H stopped throwing up early yesterday morning and never had a fever so I decided to chance it. It has been raining all morning so the walk to the bus was wet.

Morning! A had his Early On appointment this morning. We need to grocery shop and I have some cleanup to do from the brunch I hosted yesterday. I sent all the bad food with my sister's so I wouldn't be tempted. Today starts my month of no drinking. I am unsure if I can do it haha.

Morning.
We ended up heading to the neighbours for a hot dog, marshmallow roast and a fire on Saturday night and ended up staying a bit later and the moon was coming out; J was absolutely in love, she just sat and stared at it saying how 'so pretty' it was. It was adorable. Yesterday she ran out of her room at 4.40pm and yelled 'let's go to the party!', so clearly she was ready for another night around the fire.
Yesterday was an array of things going wrong between the house and car but it all worked out and the kids were super good and helpful. Mh had to leave early this morning so it was just me and the kids, then I had to drive the exact other side of the city to drop off the blood pressure machine that I used for Zoe this week. We can now add high blood pressure to her list of ailments, poor girl. I'm so thankful I asked for a blood panel, none of this would have been found and now she can be treated and probably feel better also.

I was almost at work today when I realized I left both my personal and work phones at home. I had to turnaround and get them. 2 minutes late and I parked in the structure which I shouldn’t but if I parked where I’m suppose to I would have been 20 minutes late.

Morning. Chilling on the couch with H. We got N off to school and then i made a couple batches of different chili to freeze. It’s a dreary day so it really feels like fall. I think we’ll have a lazy rest of the day.
In baby related news... I’ve started eating dates and drinking raspberry leaf tea. They seem to be two things proven to actually help with labor, so we’ll see what happens. I was induced after 40 weeks with the other two at basically zero dilation and effacement so any bit of progress will be helpful.

For days he just kept screaming "I saw the moon mommy!!! THE MOON!!!!!" |

We had a great weekend, on Friday we went to a little start of school year party at S best friend's house which is just 2 blocks away. The kids had so much fun that I let them stay out late too, we were out till about 10. But the boys (4 boys who have been friends since ~ 1 year old) made a band and were performing for us. It was adorable.
The rest of the weekend was low key and we mostly just chilled around the house. Except yesterday when MH came home, S begged me to go to some open houses (one of his favorite activities). I realized we probably watch too much House Hunters when after the 2nd house he exclaimed "now we need to see the 3rd one so we can compare and decide!"

My Mom and I always went to open houses as well, I honestly dont know what the draw is but I love going! |

I’m not sure if our class has a room mom yet, we have Curriculum night on Wed so maybe that is when it will come up. Part of me thinks about volunteering but knowing we’re moving this spring and all we’ll have going on with that IDK. Plus I tend to volunteer myself for crap and almost instantly regret it, sooo...🤷🏻♀️ |

October 6! 36 weeks yesterday Coming quick! Do you have names picked out yet? Thoughts on boy/girl? We’re 95% on names. I’m wavering a bit on our girls name but can’t think of anything i like better. I could use opinions though... Girl: Elsie Anne LN If you know our LN.. thoughts on the alliteration? Plus a vowel starting middle name.. is that too much? Other MN option is Rose. Backup FN is Fiona, but not really feeling it. Boy- Louie. Unsure on middle name. Probably Ryan (dhs FN) but i don’t love the way they sound together. I want the middle name to have some meaning, but we don’t have any family names that sound better, so it’ll probably be Ryan. I do like Charles (my brothers name) but Dh vetoed that. |

Hi!
I’m at work. Looking forward to getting off and glad they won’t need me to come back this week. I have things I need to do at home this week because I work almost every day next week and will be away this weekend. I’m also fighting a cold and it’s freezing in here, so not helping.
I have a few stops to make after work, so hoping I get to leave a little early.
Hope everyone else is having a good day so far.

slenle, you could always do Lewis Ryan and call him Louie. I don't think your girl name has too much alliteration. It's cute.

Pre-kids we used to spend many a Sunday at open houses. We actually were not living together or looking to buy a house when we saw ours at an open house and decided to buy it! |
