Holiday weeks always confuse me on the day.
M decided to join the crap sleep club. Up from 2:30-3:45. He half heartedly trotted to climb out of his crib a few times. Luckily even though he's tall, he has short legs. So he couldn't quite get his leg high enough. Of course even with the crib as low as it will go he's tall enough that if he just leaned over enough he'd fall out. So we'll be watching this the next few night. For now, coffee.

Oh God, armpants. I'd be so paranoid from here on out. Yeah, I'm pretty much never going to sleep again. But he's normally such a unicorn sleeper, so I'm hoping he'll go back to simply sleeping through the night because I'm team crib until college. |

On a brighter note we're getting cable today! We cut it out back in 2012 when we decided to start slashing our expenses. Then we got so used to Netflix/hulu we just rolled with it. I'm excited!

CestLaVie, do you think you are sick or it's nerves and anxiety? Either way, I hope you start to feel better!

Have to run across town to pick up a permit, do lots of catching up at the office and out early for an appointment.
I am so glad to be at work today and the kids to be at school. Yesterday was tough and wasn't our best day all around. I think we all need a break from each other. Although this morning was 10 times better than any given time yesterday.

I thought it was anxiety on Monday but I think it's the flu now. I'm the last in my office to get it and I was working with someone Friday who came in really sick. |

RunsforWineandCarbs, na. I gave him his space. He's having a really rough time with work, so I get it. It just sucks when I'm the only one around and then I get to be the punching bag. It's a work in progress.

armpants, sorry for the crap sleep and the Houdini moves. Stay the course! I think E mocks me now, yesterday before his nap he kept saying "mama lay down" because that is what I say to him in my mean voice. CestLaVie, hope you feel better soon! Thanks for the feedback on the taco bar! We have easy guests: no gluten free, no vegetarians. One friend might still be dairy free for her nursing baby but that will be easy for her. We'll definitely do beans and rice and I make a Mexican street corn salad that I might have to add, it is so good. I will practice before the party with making the meat. We may have more taco nights in our future in this house

Morning ladies! I'm going to try and be more active now that I am back to work and it isn't the holiday! :-)
I am ready to be done with work for the day though ::yawn::
K slept great, but DS was whiny/fidgety all night and I ended up in his bed. I think he was dreaming.

I am sad that we didn't see any big fireworks displays this year. The baseball field near us had them after the game yesterday, but I thought for sure they'd be later than they were. Nope, right around 9:15 or so. Totally could have taken the kids to see them. I'm glad we didn't go to our normal display area though as apparently they started a brush fire and ended up cancelling the rest of the show.
Kids go to play with those little things you throw on the ground and they pop. We have sprinklers to use at some point when it's darker out.
Also, my cousin had bought some NC legal fireworks and we set those off while we were down there and the kids enjoyed that, so I guess it all works out.

DS fell at the playground yesterday. He was climbing up a ladder and somehow lost his grip/balance and his ribs hit another step. He has a nice bruise, but don't think he did any other damage. He cried, but then didn't complain about it at all the rest of the day until I was checking out the area he hit at bedtime. Ugh.

We are six weeks in to shitty sleep! He literally just screams on the top of his lungs if he wakes up and we aren't in the same room. I slept on his floor for an hour last night. I think it was a total of 4 times he was up. Plus H didn't get him to sleep until 10 because of a late second nap.

Good morning! Had a nice holiday. Today it's back to reality. The next 3 weeks of work are going to be intense. Between now and July 20th, I am organizing an exhibition (with printed catalogue), a panel discussion, 2 artist talks, to be live streamed, a field trip and an open studios, in addition to teaching 2 classes and generally managing the rest of our program's faculty/ summer classes. It's always this way, but I have crazy anxiety right now.

Question: If your family has a facebook group that is used to post updates, plan vacations, etc and there was a post:
"Christmas in November is going to be November 4th"! Let us know if you are going to be there so we can draw names for the kids' gift exchange".
Would you assume:
A) Open invite to ALL members of the group
B) Invite only open to specific people

Morning. DS was so funny last night he kept saying loud and covering his ears but when we went inside (we were watching from our balcony) he threw a fit. He is still sleeping but I need to get him to daycare and get shit done before our flight this evening.
