What's up?
I'm counting down the hours until lunch time. DH and I had a date lunch yesterday and I have yummy leftovers waiting for me in the fridge. I've been ravenous lately... not sure what's going on...

I am real tired, H & I were up late talking about life and Maggie. It feels so sad today. I made Maggie's cake last night, the frosting didn't come out as good as it normally does. I want to take a nap so badly. I am so far behind in packing. Work is crazy. I had my annual this morning, I am going back on BCP. I had issues with it when I went on it for my IVF cycles, so if I don't like it. I'll look into alternatives.

Home with a sick DS today. He threw up a few times yesterday evening but hasn't since then. Fingers crossed it's not anything M will catch!
So we found out yesterday that M got a spot at the neighborhood daycare that guarantees a spot at the charter school we really want our kids to go to (it's a tough lottery for admission otherwise). She has to start in a week and DS won't get a spot until next August. It was totally unexpected so while I'm thrilled, I'm stressing about the logistics and such a big change for our family. Both kids are in daycare at my office now so it will stink to have her so far away!

ellabee I have been extra hungry too. My supply has also dropped, maybe it is related? peaseblossom55 ::hugs:: I have been thinking of you and I know it is hard right now. carrots oh no! Sick kiddos are never fun, but congrats on the spot. I know logistics may be daunting but you can do it!

I am off today since I work this weekend and Q is a mess. My child is refusing naps but he is SO tired!! He keeps on rubbing his eyes like he is sleepy but has been refusing to lay down. The last few days he has only been napping in 29 minute intervals when he does nap, and then he us rubbing his eyes 5 minutes later. Help!!!!

So tired. Dd was up three times last night. My throat is sore and I can't tell if it's just exhaustion or I'm sick. So I just picked up some sushi as a special lunch treat.

She is clearly tired and yet will fight naps. She was up randomly at 3am for a half an hour just talking in her crib luckily she went back to sleep. My only thought is that she thinks she is missing out while sleeping. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

peaseblossom55 he does seem to want to know everything that is going in. I have tried going into a dark room with no distractions, but little buddy is fighting sleep hard. Sorry you are also having trouble.

Happy Birthday, Angel Maggie What kind of cake did you make, peaseblossom55? Thinking of you guys today. carrots, that's great news about the daycare situation. You'll manage the logistics just fine, I know it! Busy at work. Not getting enough sleep. Husband pinching my last nerve (it's really me, not him. But he's eating crackers). I think it's because I'm tired AF.

All the hugs today peaseblossom55, ❤❤❤ thinking of your family today. ellabee, how was your date night? carrots, I hope your DS is feeling better. That's wonderful about M getting into the daycare! It'd be nice if they gave you a little more time though ambiguousmango, we've had good luck with the Magic Sleep Suit that's on Amazon. It works great, especially for naps. Going down for bed this week has been hard though. Lakes I'm having so many feels lately when listening to C fight sleep. It used to not phase me til I read something on KellyMom about just wanting more mommy time or something. So now I feel guilty. I don't let her cry more than 5 mins because it hurts my heart, but even getting there is hard. Once she's asleep she tends to stay there, and naps are fine, so I don't get it 😭

It was a date lunch pibblemom, and it was nice! Sometimes when I work from home and DH has a light day we'll sneak off to a local sandwich place to get away for a half hour. It's like a mini date minus the hassle of getting a babysitter because both kids are in daycare!

It's like a mini date minus the hassle of getting a babysitter because both kids are in daycare! When I worked at my brother's showroom, H's work wasn't too far away and sometimes he would get us lunch somewhere and we'd eat at my work. We'd put something on Netflix on my computer and eat and watch until he had to leave.
