This week is the desperate search to get out of the house. There's no school, no fitness classes, nada.
I think we may go to Lowes today just to walk around.

starbuck, I love browsing at Barnes and Noble if you need ideas. Their kids area has some good toys to play with and you can always read books too. Or if you have a Learning Shop? They always have toys to play with too! We're getting the exterior of our house painted today! I'm hoping H sends me updates so I can see the progress. Im going out for lunch with a coworker. We are the worst at deciding on restaurants, so we just go back and forth all morning long until it's time to leave, then quick decide. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Morning. I just ate a peach and let J suck on it and get some juice. I took it away and he's SO MAD. Cue tears. Kid loves to eat.
It's supposed to rain this afternoon so I want to get outside with the kids this morning. But J hasn't napped yet.. so not sure if we will be able to. I may just throw hen both in the stroller and go for a walk. It knocked J out last week and I was able to transfer him to the crib without him waking up. I was shocked. I have never been able to do that with B. Ever.

Any one else's baby doing this fake cough thing? J has been doing it a lot the past few days. It's totally a fake cough/whine combination. I think he just wants attention becuase when I look at him he smiles.

It was so funny, he definitely did it for attention because he would fake cough, look at me and then laugh. Kids are weird.

Morning!
I got annoyed with work 10 minutes after getting here, so yay Monday.
I'm only working through Wednesday this week and then I'm off until next Thursday. We're going to do a day trip to Bainbridge Island on Thursday, which is perfect because it's supposed to be 100 mfing degrees that day. It should be cooler over there, plus we get to take a ferry ride, which is always fun.

waitwhat H fake coughs MOTN when he wants milk. It's the funniest thing, because if he's just being fussy he will cry but if he's hungry/thirsty he does the fake cough while rooting around (eyes still closed).

I posted some Yard Sale leftovers on Facebook today (mom's group) for cheap-ass prices. I'm past wanting money and just wanting shit out of my house. I also did up a bag to just donate

J woke up last night screaming like a maniac. It lasted about 20 minutes. He could not be consoled, just going totally nuts. He wouldn't nurse (unusual since the boob is his favorite thing), didn't seem to have a fever...we were clueless. To the point where I was like wondering if he managed to eat something he shouldn't have and was like thinking I maybe needed to go to the hospital, it was so intense.
And then finally he stopped. So I nursed him and got him back to bed a little bit later, only to have K wake up, and then I could think about getting back to sleep myself. Ugh I'm so tired.
But now I think he has a fever and find out MH in all his wisdom packed up our thermometer and took it to MILs house (actually he ended up grabbing a ton of things off the counter and just shoving them in a box rather than thinking thru it so there's a lot of useful shit I don't have). So I can go buy a new one or drive 30 minutes to retrieve ours.
😐 I guess it gets me out of the house?

Not that we're looking to sell anytime soon, but with any house project it's in my mind! Sorry for the rough night starbuck, I hope J feels better soon. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Geeze starbuck, I'm sorry! Also, it sounds like our H's pack the same way. Mine likes to just dump the entire contents of a drawer into a box and call it good. tjanca22, OMG I love the blue, so pretty! You should totally paint your front door a fun color too! It's on my summer to-do list for our house, I love bright front doors.

I think he just wants attention becuase when I look at him he smiles. Lol yes both. AV does the fake cough only. AB does a fake cough, but more frequently he fake cries. I know it's fake bc of the way it sounds, when he does it, and because if I say "no no AB no no" (in a gentle voice) he looks at me, stops crying, and smiles or goes back to doing whatever he was doing. These kids = too smart.

tjanca22 that's a great color! So you already have white trim? Well that's annoying starbuck. I guess you have today's outing planned. sophiegrace I've been wondering if M has continued to sleep better since starting the Zyrtec?

Last night I put a healthy baby to bed. By 11pm, she was up sneezing, coughing, and with snot all over her face.
Needless to say, I've got a cranky baby on my hands today. And watch out if I get near her to wipe her nose.
Poor thing.

Yesterday I made M a grilled cheese and cut the crust off for her. I have it to H and he went to town on it. I really thought he'd just chew on it for a bit and spit it out but he ate the whole damn thing.

starbuck and hangry , I hope J and E are feeling better soon! tjanca22 I love that color! I am so Monday today. Today is Day 1 of my 6-week food/exercise plan so I have done nothing work-related all morning, but I have managed to type myself up a calendar for all of my meals and workouts for the next 6 weeks. It's going to be tough because it includes a wedding (plus rehearsal dinner), a trip to Philly for my brother's 30th, my birthday, and the week after Labor Day when we'll be on the Cape with my parents, but oh well. There's never a "perfect time" for anything really, is there?

C fake coughs all the time and thinks it's hilarious. He also smiles really big when he sneezes. And cries when food is taken away from him. tjanca22 I love those colors!! I wish we would have painted our house at some point. It's boring white. You got this dashook!
