We’ve been outside for the last couple hours, this was our first nice/warm day in forever. B finally mastered turns on his bike so he was eager to ride down to the corner where our neighbors’ kids were out playing. He ‘stopped to chat’ (his words) and told me all about it when he got home. So grown up 😭

My children’s baby name suggestions:
Luke/Lucas
Leia
Chubby Baby (I prefer Chub E. Baby)
Just throwing those out there in case it helps anyone 😏

Yesterday Cass had been digging through my hope chest and pulled out an old baby outfit I saved. She managed to squeeze herself partially into an 18m outfit. Lolz. She needed help getting free. Please tell me you took a pic. I didn't but I need to. I might make her squeeze into it again. |

MH got a new TV. It barely fits on our TV stand. He was just supposed to look. At least I don't have to listen to him bitch about glitches with the old TV now. Did he come home with a 70 inch? I had just bought a new TV stand and we had to reinforce the damn thing because of his little "impulse buy". |

I signed Cadence up for weekly private swim lessons starting next week. She's super excited to get back in the pool.

I got awful news today. Sierra’s aide accepted a new position at the school. I’m happy for her. It pays more and it’s what she wants to do. But I’m sooo sad we are losing her. This was her 3rd aide in 2 years. She was absolutely amazing. Is this what her entire educational life is going to be like. A constant revolving door. A new person every year. Ugh. I’m sad, I’m frustrated, but I also get it. I was an aide for two kiddos with special needs years ago. The pay sucks, it’s a hard job, it can be thankless sometimes. So people in those positions are always looking to move on or move up to something different. But I’m not gonna lie...I cried when she messaged me. And she is the absolute sweetest.  |

She's super excited to get back in the pool. today I learned our swim school opened back up and I am excited to sign the boys up. The instructors have to wear this scuba type mask to do the lessons. M2 might be scared when he starts. |

I also saw that they have opened up camp registration at the gym. However, there was just a news article about an uptick of cases in my county likely due to community transmission. I wasn't planning on signing him up to start the first few weeks, but now I'm having second thoughts. I have to find out more information about possible refunds because I want to sign him up for July, but only if I can get a refund if I need to pull him. I need to find this out for swim, too. There is also a possible case of the children's Kawasaki syndrome in our state, so that's another layer. This is hard.

lfig I’m sorry that stinks. I know you struggle to find sitters, do you think she might be interested in being a back up sitter for you when schools are closed?
