Love her outfit!!
My kid is currently in his crib fighting his nap so I'll get a picture of him after we get ready for the BBQ. I have two summer outfits he hasn't worn yet and this might be the last day warm enough. I don't know which one to put him in.

We just got home from the cabin. It was fun but I'm sooooo happy to be in my own house again. I have a pile of laundry to do and we all stink like campfire, so I won't get to relax, but it's quiet so I'm content.

I'm doing laundry & cleaning. I swear it looked like the hurricane demolished the inside of my house when I returned. I guess I can't be too mad since I left MH alone with both kids for 2 weeks.
We're going to my in laws' house later today.

sophiegrace Adorable, per usual. She looks like a little gymnast! I have been planning C's fall occasion wardrobe...pumpkin patch, Halloween, family photos, birthday, Thanksgiving...she probably needs something for Columbus Day, too, yes?

Morning! The house is wonderfully quiet--C is napping and DH took B out for a haircut and some errands. I've been puttering, working on a gift basket for my BFF's baby shower this weekend, and online shopping. Here's C with her barnyard pals:

Morning. I'm grumpy. J was up too much last night and I've had enough, no more comfort nursing. #meanmom

Hi ladies!
B has a mysterious rash all over his body. It started out yesterday on the back of his legs and now it's on his chest and front of legs. He's acting totally normal so FX it's nothing. I haven't changed a thing so I can't imagine what it would be.
Just finishing up lunch and cleaning up the kitchen. Here's J crushing some pasta and meatballs.
Poof

waitwhat has B had a virus lately? Maybe a post virus rash? Could he have accidentally eaten some allergen food? vino I hear you. Comfort nursing is sooooo easy at the moment. It's hard to give it up. Good luck friend. flamingo I've been starting to accumulate outfits for various things this fall... First day of daycare, family pictures, a wedding we'll go to. Still need to find birthday outfit, Christmas jammies and Christmas outfits! Very important #fwp here.

This outfit is a little ridiculous but C's being a little shit right now so he's going to wear it in front of all his friends and GF. I started singing "If you're happy and you know it" and he couldn't help but clap while he was whining 😂

hangry nope he has not been sick or anything! He also hasn't eaten anything unusual! I'm going to keep an eye on it and see what it looks like tomorrow.

hangry yes! I'm somewhat embarrassed to admit I have C's Christmas dress already, but it's pretty formal so she'll definitely need a couple Christmas-y things for everyday (and Jammies for both kids, of course). Lol, sorry, wallet.

I just bought Christmas pjs at the outlet mall on Saturday! Carter's had them for 50% off.
We had so much fun at the fair yesterday! DS1 would have lived on the little train ride if I let him.
Today we're going to go get the big kid's hair cut and then go eat at CFA. I love long weekends.

H fell off my bed I only had my back turned a moment. He cried so hard. #momguilt Oh no! Poor H and poor Mom. Hope he is ok. I think it is a practically a rite of passage, though, if it makes you feel any better...B fell off as a baby and C fell off when we were on vacation this summer.

My H took the kids on a little "walkie-walk" (as B calls it) and I am home drinking some wine, burning the last of my "pineapple cilantro" candle (gotta use it up so I can break out the fall ones!) and making a casserole for dinner. We got a lot of the little ticky-tacky stuff done that's been hanging out around the house since the move...a few last pictures hung, the formal living room organized, etc. I feel so productive!

C fell as a baby as well. He cried pretty hard. Nursing now and falling asleep.

danib E fell off the bed and couch a few times and L has fallen off he couch too. It happens to all of us at some point. If it makes you feel any better when E was around 8ish months I took him into the basement to change a load of laundry, turned my back for 10 seconds and he fell into the sump pump hole. There's a cover on it, but if you push on it just right the cover slides off. He went head first and got drenched and I had to pull him out by his legs. I cried for a few days on that one. H and I stayed up late last night talking through some of the issues we've been having lately and finally addressed some of the fights we've had but never really talked about after the fact. It felt good to get some things off my chest and share how I've been feeling lately, but it was also hard to hear some of the things H had to say as well. We both feel better about things, at least I do, and decided we need to take some time to ourselves and time for our relationship since both of those always get put last. Today was a good day and we seem to be communicating much better today.

Thanks ladies. H fell asleep nursing but woke up after a few minutes and immediately started crying again. He did this twice which made me think something was for sure wrong. But luckily C was able to make him laugh which calmed my nerves. He did cry again but I was able to do a little examination (rotated his arms and legs, poked his ribs, checked his eyes for dilation, etc). He got upset again but I was able to calm him and get him back to sleep. I realize I'm insane.

Happy to hear you guys were able to talk things out @tjanca. DH and I had to have a very serious chat a few months back. It was super hard but so worth it in the end.

I'm so glad you and your H had a productive talk tjanca22. Living with, loving, and communicating with another person day in and day out is hard sometimes.

Oh great. Another hurricane is headed this way... I think it's going to turn. I really really really hope it's going to. And out to sea. Not in flamingo's and my backyard.
