I got out just after 10 and spent way too much time in Target. I stocked up on tanks though because they were on clearance with an additional 20% off using cartwheel. I also got some Dr. Browns bottles. I saw the package said it could help with spit up. Anyone use that brand to help with spit up? M2 spits up soooo much. That's all we use. N never spits up, j did, but he overate all the time. Tons of parts to wash, but I don't mess with something that's working. Hope they work for you! Thanks! I always heard good things about them, but I never bought them because too many parts to wash. M never had a lot of gas or spit up so I never bothered with them. This kid on the other hand... I'm willing to wash some extra parts if it helps.

We're home and both kids are in bed.
H was a rockstar the whole trip.
M was not delightful to travel with...

It was a no nap day. He wanted to go on the potty 20 times today. But at least his underwear was dry the whole day.

My mom had an accident yesterday probably tore her meniscus... she's currently at my sister's in Norway for the weekend and flies back tomorrow. She has to get an MRI straight away. This a sucks on all levels, also selfishly because we were going to stay in their house while our house is being remodelled while they where on vacation, which they are now probably not going on. Trying not to panic about how we're going to solve this.

I hope your mom is ok nam2013; maybe she'll get some good news from the MRI. Sorry for the wrinkle in your plans!

Morning!
I woke up at 6:45 to find B attempting to sneak into my room (?)--then he snuck back out. No idea what was up with that.
I keep staying up too late, but since that has been my only child-free time the last few weeks, I want to take advantage.
No big plans today. Might make a Target run.

nam2013 hope your mom is ok. I feel your stress. We had a house lined up to rent during construction at ours and 2 weeks before it fell through.

Morning! We just finished breakfast and we're killing time before heading to Costco and the grocery store. I put Chase in a romper today because by next summer, he's definitely going to be too old for them. And Colin was quick to let me know that Chase is wearing a dress. Sigh...

I'm suppose to be getting ready for work. But early this week I started rewatching Fringe and I'm close to finishing an episode.

nam2013 I hope your mom is ok. Is there not enough space in their house for you all to be able to stay there at the same time?

Sounds fun jewels. The Lionel Ritchie/MC tour seems like such an odd combo but good music nonetheless. I'm such a dork I'm more into LC's music.

The 5k was so much fun yesterday. Our dog couldn't have been happier. It's definitely her favorite day of the year. She was really proud of her medal.
The drive to Oregon wasn't bad. We stopped at an outlet mall (hello no sales tax) and I spent a bunch at the Disney Store. Got some long sleeved shirt for the girls for school.
Going to my nephew's birthday party today and hopefully more school shopping.

While settling down with the girls to go to bed... Madison: Ew, it smells like poop in here. Cassidy: Oh, that was me--I didn't shower today.

My parents live next door in a 4 bedroom house, just the 2 of them but we stayed with my sister in her 3 bedroom 1.5 bath house for 17 weeks with 6 kids, 4 adults, and 2 dogs. I shared a 9 by 9 room with DH, DD, T, and a dog.

I'm really struggling with either carpel tunnel or tendinitis. It's making work difficult today. I may try and see if I can get in to the ortho in a few weeks when I'm back in STL for Sierra's next appt. I'm hoping I can get a shot in my wrist and it will help.

I think I've had a touch of that and it's such an annoying pain. And it's hard to 'rest' your wrists. Keep your dirty jokes to yourself bitches.
