We're on the Cape still and it's a gorgeous day. D is napping, and thank goodness for that because she barely napped at all yesterday, went to bed late, and still was up at the crack of dawn 😩
DH took the kids to breakfast so I could "sleep in" after nursing D. Then he left to play golf for basically the rest of the day. No idea yet what I'm going to do with these kiddos once little miss wakes up. It's slightly too chilly for the beach plus idk if I'm comfortable yet taking the two of them there alone.
There's a lot of great sales going on downtown but shopping with two littles sounds less than fun. I might just take them to lunch and then the library to play until DS's naptime.

Morning! Add J to the "up at the butt crack of dawn" club. He's taking a really nice nap right now though. We are getting everything ready for the clambake--chicken is marinating, corn is being shucked, DH is picking up the clams, and vodka tonics are on deck (for later). Can't wait!

Morning. DH let me sleep in this morning (like legit, past 9am). So that was pretty awesome. We have our babysitter coming this afternoon so we can have a day-date (afternoon movie). Then I have to finish getting everything ready for C's party tomorrow.

Morning. We're having a lazy day thanks to L being a cranky teething hot mess and DS running a fever. Hoping to get some cleaning done today during nap time.

Morning all.
I've been on the go all week with MH home, we'e finished up a bunch of house projects and yesterday had the carpets cleaned. We finished cleaning the rest of the house after the kids went to bed so my house feels amazing right now. I know it wont last but damn it feels good.
You all have reminded me that I need to expand our village and find a babysitter. Now that B is at the age of telling on everyone about everything, I'm comfortable leaving them...

Morning ladies.
Just got home from work. Sitting in the car bc M fell asleep on the way home. She skipped her morning nap so I'm hoping that I can take her inside in a few and get her to go back down easily. Grabbing a few minutes of quiet right now though just in case it doesn't work out in my favor lol. Hoping to get some yard work done this afternoon while the weather is gorgeous.

Hi ladies! I've been busy cleaning this morning but the house is still a disaster. You know how you talk about cleaning up and your littles making a mess right behind you? Well that was just me with H. Cleaned the kitchen twice because he made a huge mess making breakfast. He was also supposed to do a grocery run and do some yard work yet he's still sitting in the couch "digesting" lol.
I've been researching baby playpens since yesterday, finally decided on one then it freaking changed on Amazon overnight. I guess they changed it and finally decided to update the picture. I think it still works but now I'm gonna look again.

Oh and we have birthday party #1 at 4. It's my coworkers daughter so that will be interesting. I never really see my coworkers outside of work.

Hi!
Just got home from getting lunch and a load of mulch at Home Depot. DH is going to mow and then I'll probably help him spread mulch if we can get the kids to cooperate.
Tonight is Zoo Grooves--this awesome 80s cover band is playing and they have food trucks, so I think we're going to do that.

I ended up taking the kids to our club for lunch. It was fun but exhausting. DS has been finding new and innovative ways to test my patience, and his listening skills have sharply declined of late. Currently he's in the other room fake crying and refusing to nap...for the third day in a row. 🙄
D is down though so I think I might crank some white noise for myself to drown out DS, and catch a little nap.

Hi all! MH is at basketball and my parents are coming over later to celebrate my dad's birthday. We're making some ribs that have been sitting in a teriyaki marinade overnight, pot stickers, asian quinoa salad from that site tgrimes introduced me to and strawberry shortcake with homemade biscuits and whipped cream. I'm probably being too ambitious with this meal and everything will be a disaster. We'll see.

My kids are driving me insane. D's nap lasted 35 minutes so I got exactly 10 minutes of sleep before I had to get up again. I am so sick of this shit. I'm crabby and it's not going to help me in dealing with her crabby tired ass all afternoon.

It only took us 45 min to get to the airport so my sister checked her bag and got her boarding pass. Now we're eating lunch on Harbor Island. Here's my view: Life is rough.

They moved my dad to acute therapy across the hall. I made news to buy the nurses more treats for having to deal with my mother while I'm gone.

Our date went well. The movie was absolutely hilarious. I legitimately almost peed my pants at one part. H was a challenge for the babysitter. He got tired but wouldn't nap for her. So I think we may have to keep our outings short until he starts doing better with sleep/napping.
