I went to bed at 8 after I had a complete meltdown but was awake from 2-4:30 so that kind of negates that extra sleep that I needed.

DS slept in until 7:15 so I'm really happy about that, and his rash is finally starting to fade!!

G's teacher is here. I am exhausted because she got up crying at 5:15. She went back to sleep. I didn't. She then slept until almost 8. 😑
I really want to go to sleep. MH has a class to take for work today so he won't be home until about 2 instead of his usually 10:30. If he was home earlier I would go upstairs and relax. Maybe I will nap when G does.

I was craving strawberry jam this morning this morning so I made some toast. As I finished and went to put on the lid I saw a small spot of mold on the lip of the jar. I ate the toast anyway. Let's hope I don't regret it.
Don't worry, I threw the jar out so the temptation to have more is gone.

Hi!
H is taking both kids to the city this morning to run some errands.
Guys, I'm not joking, as a SAHM, I think this will be the longest I've had my own house to myself. I don't know what I'm going to do!
Otherwise watching a friend's kid for a couple hours this afternoon, then my parents farm for supper with some veggies from our garden to thank Mom for taking care of our garden while we were away so much this summer!
In other news, yesterday I was talking to a couple photographer friends and have my maternity and newborn pics tentatively booked in! The one doing the newborns did our wedding and DS's and she is busy and high in demand, and a little pricey so we've been saving up to use her again for family pics until we thought our family was complete and I'm very excited I got in with her!!! She's amazing!
And the one doing our maternity family pics for Christmas cards is someone I've more recently met, but she's done a lot of pics for friends and she offered me a great deal so I'm very happy with that too!

tiffrobot we booked our newborn photos this week too! Our photographer was already booked through December and we wanted to make sure we got a spot the 2nd week in January. I'm excited because we loved her for DDs newborn pics but she is also pricey so not looking forward to that part.

Thank you misspatty and Happy Anniversary to you too! <3 Any plans for it this weekend? MH recently lost his job so we have to keep it pretty low key. We're going to eat at a cheap local place, but they have a beautiful patio with live music on Thursdays, so it should be a fun time! Our gift this year was our trip to Italy in May, so we don't have to worry about buying anything. How will you guys be celebrating? I'm sorry to hear that about YH, that is a bummer and I'm sure so stressful while pregnant! FX for you that he finds something soon. And that sounds like a perfect way to celebrate tonight! Another parallel between us- we just went to Italy as well! We were there late April. I am already wanting to go back..and missing the wine. I saw you mention elsewhere you found out you were pregnant while there, what a perfect trip it sounds like! |

DS thinks there's a baby in *his* belly, so he's running up to everyone he meets to lift up his shirt and show them the "bayybeeeeuh." So adorable.
Happy for the cute announcements, anniversaries and good news over the past few days!
Work is a beast lately, and I'm drowning in it. But it's challenging, and it makes the days go by quickly... trying to be positive 😉

pinkcat misspatty Happy Anniversary! Love the announcement pinkcat! Nothing too exciting going on. The first week of work after vacation is always sooo long. Last night Wife and I were laying in bed and I was laying on my side facing her and the baby was very active. She said she could feel it move. I know I can feel it move. But I'm 17 weeks. Would it even be possible for someone to feel it externally at this point??

I picked up a sandwich on my way back from the doctor's office and I'm debating ordering one for delivery. Nothing else in the house sounds as good as another JJ sandwich. I realize that this isn't exactly rational.... |

Finished up my beach club not too long ago! 😊 My children are getting along really well today, which means I'm kind of sitting back while they destroy the house. I'm glad they're happy but MAN. There is so much to clean up. |

marygracerich, I hear you on being tired. Last night, I went to lay down around 5 when DH got home and managed to fall asleep but then around 6 he got a work call and had to take it so I had to take over with DS....bummer. I am going to try the same tonight and hope he doesn't have anything urgent to interrupt my precious rest. pinkcat, love the announcement! Very cute! helloerrbody, I'm glad to hear your DS is getting better! maddisonrose, well what are you watching?! tiffrobot, I hope you enjoyed your quiet house. A month or so ago, DH took DS to his parents for the night and I stayed home. I binge watched TV shows in bed and had sushi that I didn't have to share with anyone...it was glorious. sarahh, I was also awake around 2:30 for awhile, it sucks. After I check the time initially, I try not to look at it again b/c that just makes me anxious when I realize how long I've been awake. Do you think that would help you too? Eh, jessijean, I'd say as long as the part you ate didn't have the mold, you'll be OK. I tend to push it with food stuff like that though! My DH is even worse and he even got an allergic reaction once b/c we're pretty sure he ate some moldy kimchi. I mean, that had to be some old kimchi. hiimjamie, can you feel the baby from the outside? I feel like I could tell when DH would be able to feel it. I think the first thing he was able to feel was hiccups. It was pretty late and he was so excited every time the baby got hiccups b/c he knew for sure he was feeling the baby do something, but the hiccups made me insane!

easternshoregirl Yeah tired is the worst. I hope you get some rest. I will not be getting rest today. My child has decided that napping is not on her agenda and is currently still babbling away 1 hour and 40 minutes into "nap time." I am in for a very very rough afternoon.

Gearing up for DS's 2nd bday party on Saturday. I made some candies today so I feel like at least there has been some progress. I also managed to clean our den (connected to the kitchen where people will likely hang out) last night. So...only a million more things to do! I did make a checklist so I can mark stuff off as I do it.
Not much else going on here. Also exhausted. And I noticed a funky mole this afternoon...not happy about that. I had 2 skin cancer removals already this year, near the same spot on my upper arms. That was pretty crappy and more involved than I expected, so I'm hoping this is nothing. DS might have been pinching me there the other day so I'll keep an eye on it but get to the dermatologist soon if I think something is really up.
DS did sleep in his crib all night although I didn't sleep great. I loaded him up with Greek yogurt before bed. I am thinking he has been starving during the night which is kind of making me mad, that I didn't think of this weeks ago.
