Achievements: Finished some projects.
Challenges: Getting songs from the show LO has been watching this week to not be stuck in my head.
Plans for the week? TBD
How are YOU doing? I have to break some bad news to LO, which I am dreading as I expect he will be extremely upset.
Q's/Vent?
QOTW- link sausage or patty sausage? (This is a debate in our house.) Usually links, but sometimes I get in the mood for patties as they are totally different. Either way, they have to be good quality though or else a big ol' 'No, thank you,' to any sausage.

Achievements: Wednesday was the 1st day of school so DS had a great first 3 days! & yesterday was his 1st game & our team won! He even played as goalie for half of it & made so many saves. I was really proud & impressed. I was pretty nervous at first tbh. Challenges: his behavior has been nuts at home. I really don't know what's going on. Very whiny when he doesn't get what he wants. If you ignore him, he gets mad/throws tantrums, cries more than he did as a toddler sometimes it feels like. I thought "they" say it gets better at this age. Lol I know he has his 6 year molars coming in so maybe that's what's secretly causing the irritations? Idk I'm kind of over it. Plans for the week? School school school DS' birthday is on Wednesday so I'll bring in cupcakes for his class & maybe ChuckeCheese after school & then soccer on Thursday. His party is in a couple of weeks to give people enough notice since Labor Day & the beginning of school. How are YOU doing? Pretty good, just overwhelmed a little. Q's/Vent? QOTW- link sausage or patty sausage? (This is a debate in our house.) Patty for sure.

cam I'm sorry you have to tell your LO bad news. It's always so difficult. I'll be thinking of you. If you wanna talk about it, feel free, but I understand if you don't.

Achievements: DD told me she made a friend at preschool, and she even knew his name. She makes friends everywhere she goes, but this is the first time she actually asked one of her friends what their name is.
Challenges: Not feeling stupid when it comes to dealing with DD when she's sick. She's never sick, so I feel like I don't really have experience or know what to do when she is and then feel stupid for calling the dr. She had strep 2 weeks ago. Now she has a really bad almost wet sounding cough and a runny nose. No fever and she's acting normal. I'm going to call the dr tomorrow, but I feel like I might be over reacting and she's just coming down with a cold.
Plans for the week? DD starts speech this week, so we are doing that tomorrow and Wed. Thurs DH and I are refinancing our house.
How are YOU doing? Hanging in there. I feel bad telling DD no when she asks to do things outside (mostly playing tag), but being outside for any length of time is making me really nauseous.
Q's/Vent?
QOTW- link sausage or patty sausage? (This is a debate in our house.) Neither...I don't like sausage. Funny story though...when we were in Scotland, DH tried haggis. He thought it was a sausage patty until he took a bite. He did say it wasn't bad, I guess it didn't really have a flavor.

Achievements: that schedule I was worried about last week, I think I may have worked it out.
Challenges: this week it's getting DS2 to drink his fluids with thickener. He has decided he doesn't like it now. And DS1 has attitude for days. Everything seems to be worth a fit. It's frustrating.
Plans for the week? None so far.
How are YOU doing? I'm good. Feeling a little less overwhelmed.
Q's/Vent? None that I can think of.
QOTW- link sausage or patty sausage? (This is a debate in our house.) Link for me. H likes patty.

Achievements: I think I found a furnace/ac unit we can afford.
Challenges: realizing the cost of said unit. And deciding between two cars (pathfinder vs sienna - anyone) and first tri exhaustion. I am dying over here. Adulting is hard.
Plans for the week? Open houses for everyone's school. MOPS advisory meeting. Survival.
How are YOU doing? I'm exhausted.
Q's/Vent? How do you keep it all together? My house is a mess, my laundry is exploding and I physically cannot get it up to care.
QOTW- link sausage or patty sausage? (This is a debate in our house.) dnc as long as someone else is cooking.

Achievements: I survived family vacation without crying or having a huge fight with my sisters/parents/Dh.
Challenges: I need to find motivation to get stuff done around the house. Finding time/ energy to run is no prob, but vacuuming/clean up, haha, hell no.
Plans for the week? I need to start planning Dd1's bday party. Dh did agree to order a cake versus making one, win!
How are YOU doing? Great, now that I'm back to Zumbaing and running. I managed to not gain weight during vacation even though I ate everything in sight.
Q's/Vent? Why does the middle kid have to be the most strong willed? She is cute while telling me off at least.
