We talked with our architect who has grand plans for our home ($$$$). I may have to bring a big red marker to our next meeting.  |

We have a wedding the first weekend in September.
We have a hotel booked for 2 nights.
I have no clue what to wear. I’m not sure how fancy I should go? Cocktail? Full length? Casual?
Good news, the kids have a half day so we can drop them at my SIL after they are done!

[mention]milano [/mention] Did you get you fabfitfun box? Details please! I did! I opted to get a smaller quantity of higher $ items and I ended up with 6 things, 5 of which I really like - the 6th was a nightshirt that I'll never use so I kept it in the packaging and will gift it to a friend who wears them. I prepaid or whatever I needed to do to ensure that I got to pick every item. I got a summersalt beach bag, a bucket hat that actually fits my melon head, and 3 skincare products. I'm pleased! |

Where is everyone?! I've been doing this, actually 😆. But a less relaxing version of it because, children. |

I’ve been clearing out the closets. Hopefully can schedule a donation Pickup for next week. I already have 3 contractor trash bags filled with clothes and shoes. I have another pile of shoes and coats to give to a friend. We head to my parents this weekend. They’re annoyed we’re only coming for 1 night but we just had 2.5 weeks on the road and we need a break. Maybe I’ll take just the girls during the week in a few weeks.

I've been busy with appointments and financials and generally keeping my children alive. Spoiler - we put an offer on a house tonight. We'll know in the next week if they accept it, and then we'll have to rush to get everything in order and pack everything up because closing would be like end of August  |

I'm here. My days go like this:
Coffee, trending to children, client visits, family time/dinner, kids bedtime, adult time, sleep.
I feel very busy even though half my day is just stressing over the kids

I'm still not feeling well due to gastritis, I'm nauseous all day and night and have no appetite and occasionally throw up in the middle of the night 😑. Today was actually a little bit better, though. My mom is still here for a few more days and she's been a huge help. Last week I was completely bedridden for 3 days and we were so grateful my parents were here so that MH didn't have to take time off work. I'm feeling very betrayed by my body right now.

Has anyone bought from lulus? Looove Anthro. I wish I could afford to shop there more. I haven’t shopped from Lulu’s but I’ve noticed their ads before and it looks really cute. A lot of the dresses seem way too short for me, but I’m 5’9’’. |

I have never found a strapless that would stay put. And no bra is not an option…. |

I really like the style of the second one! Now I’m wishing I’d ordered my dress for family photos from Lulus.

The plus about the first one is that it is a petite. Which usually fits me better.

We've been on the parenting struggle bus. Had to pick up G yesterday because he kicked a kid on the slide and so he was not permitted to go on the field trip to the science center. I was so embarrassed and sad for him. We had a lot of good talks so he understands how he can do better but that lack of impulse control is roughhhhhh.

That sounds like a pretty harsh punishment for one single kick. Is it a pattern? Poor kiddo. I would have been devastated.
