Morning!
I’m dragging today...slept fairly well so Idk what’s going on.
I made pancakes this morning and am now struggling to come up with a meal plan/grocery list.
Not much on our agenda otherwise; did I tell y’all I painted C’s room last week (the day before our guests arrived...prob not my best idea ever). It turned out really well and I love the color but today I need to do some touch up in a couple places with a skinny brush.

Morning y'all.
We had a busy weekend too. Saturday was both MH birthday and my Grandma's 100th birthday. We did a big zoom call with all the relatives for her on Saturday afternoon so that was nice. Then Saturday night we went to S BFFs house for a BBQ which was super fun.

Hi ladies.
It's supposed to be in the triple digits today. That rarely happens here. We don't have AC so we'll probably hit the lake in the afternoon.

Cadence has dance camp this week. Mh has to drop off, so of course there were issues. 1st he didn't seem to know where to go. I assumed it would be the main doors, but it was a side door further down that he said he didn't know existed. After multiple walks to and from the car Cadence's temp was high. Luckily, they let her sit inside for a few minutes to cool down before testing again and she was fine.
He has to drop her off all week, so hopefully every morning isn't like this.
We have a giant dumpster being dropped off here at the office. The time frame they gave was 5am-5pm. Cool. I'm not sitting around the office after my scheduled time just to load trash. Nope. I'll do it during my scheduled hours only.

Morning. Home from our vacation. On the way home we drove by a place where you can pick your own berries, flowers & drink coffee. It was a nice way to end it. My mom was waiting for us at home and took a bag of laundry!
I’m still feeling very lightheaded and weak quite often, so I’m going to bring it up at my midwife’s appointment on Thursday, hopefully she can say something useful.

This happened to me yesterday. Cadence said she almost came into my room when she got up, but then told herself, "no, let her sleep". She spent a good hour and a half building a lego house. I was amazed. |

Morning. The big girls have been playing nice and fighting off and on all morning. V gave me a super big smile this morning, now I just have to get a picture because it’s so cute. I’m going to make lunch shortly and then I think the girls would benefit from some time apart. I won a giveaway this weekend for a diaper bag, Water bottle and baby bottle so I need to go pick that up at some point today too. Good thing I still hadn’t decided on what I wanted and bought anything yet.

My aunt (who lives 5 doors down) made the best of a cancelled vacation and got a new kitchen, so I wanted to swing by and take a look. She also has birds, quails, chicken, a rabbit, cat, dog and best of all a turtle, so the kids insisted on coming too. In full dress up gear...

Morning!
We got to my mom’s fine and just hung out with family the whole weekend. It’s been very wet here because of the hurricane that hit Texas.
I decided to come hit up a few stores here in my college town early this morning. The economy here has really exploded since I left and I never take the time to just come see what all they have. I spent a lot at Nordstrom Rack. Whoops. We leave tomorrow to head back home. It’s been nice to just relax for a few days.

Last night I realized I forgot to pack the walkie talkies. I had even bought an extra set so all three kids could use them. I ended up overnighting then this morning to my MIL. They better use them! I haven’t talked to C since we left Saturday afternoon. I texted MIL last night to see if he could talk but she didn’t see it until this morning. We plan to FaceTime tonight. I miss him so much. This is the longest we have been apart and coming off of being together all the time makes this harder than I expected. He looks like he’s having a blast though. PDQ here he is this morning with his cousins. I was shocked he is actually smiling and then I clicked to see the live pic and he dips off pretty fast. Lucky they got the shot.  |

I feel like a jerk, I had scheduled my furniture repair guy for tomorrow to fix the move damage. Then this morning the moving company calls to say that they are sending out an independent auditor to review our damage--and any damage that has been repaired/destroyed (like if you threw away broken pieces) cannot be claimed.
So I had to call, apologize profusely, and cancel the furniture guy...he's a one-man shop and I don't think his wife (who does his scheduling) was real thrilled with me. I totally understand, it was several hours' worth of time and very last-minute. I feel really bad but I also don't want to be stuck with $500+ of repair bills!

tallb Did you ever look into the mommastrong program? A few weeks ago I finally started doing the other workouts and I have to say, I'm pretty impressed. The daily workouts are only around 15 minutes but those other programs she has that you can include. I've been doing the daily workout plus the "love my pooch workout" and I really like it. It looks like she re-filmed the diastasis recti section and she's changed some of her phrases/mental images she gives for movements. There's also extra videos for specific injuries, aches and pains, modifications for different exercises, boot camps for glutes, pelvic floor, etc. She has programs for kids, teens, guys and nutrition, but I haven't ventured out to any of those yet.

How much is this? Looks like $5 a month. The nutrition program is separate. If you buy a mommastrong or a pappastrong membership, the kid videos are included. www.mommastrong.com/ourprograms |

I never did.. but I did do an ab workout on the peloton app for the first time yesterday. I may check it out, the third pregnancy really did a number on me..or that I'm older, def not bouncing back like I did the first two times. |
