Feel better, @chrissy01! Good luck on your first days, @yummee and @snoop! Can't wait to hear how the day goes! @wine, I hate making appointments for myself. I have no trouble going and I'm not nervous when I'm there, but the phone call to make the appointment always puts me on edge. I switched GPs last week and when I called to set up my first appointment, they put me on hold as soon as they answered, and I chickened out and hung up. I called back an hour later and set everything up, but that first go around was tough.

Thanks everyone. Of course my morning started with Z waking up at 5am for the day. Then me getting in a fight with MH at 7:45 because he was still in bed even though last night he assured me he would "handle the kids" in the AM so I can get ready and go. Now he's mad at me because I'm "always so angry." Good grief. Anyway, I got DD and I'm gonna turn my day around. Sorry for the rough morning. But DD makes it all better.

vino nam2013 did you start trying to nightwean last night? How did it go? I did three days ago. You're post made me realise that I might be a bit harsh one her going from nursing at 11-2-5 to nothing. She woke up at 10, which my h handled, I nursed her at 2.30 and put her back in her own bed and she woke at 06.15. So all in all not bad!

vino, do you and YH start your new plan this week where you split the day up? Yes! Thank goodness, he does not do well without a 'plan' even though he is off. Weirdo.

vino nam2013 did you start trying to nightwean last night? How did it go? I'm going to do three nights of tracking her wake ups and nursing minutes, then decrease her time from that. It was a suggestion from an N16er and I thought it was a good idea to see where we are at. Thanks for checking in! Eta: I did try and soothe her at her first wake up and she grabbed the paci AND THREW IT ACROSS THE ROOM. Cool. I see this is going to go well.

trtlcrzy chrisy01 or anyone tech savvy: I'm having issues with my IPhone password. It's saying it's not valid when I try to do an in app purchase (pretty sure it's correct but whatever). When I go to my settings to try to access my password and security, it says "server error" and won't even open the function. What do I do?

I have access to check at work. I'll let you know when I get in.

cagoldi their server usually has some problems around the time of a new big iOS launch so that's what I'm thinking.

Alex agreed to moving the house. I hate where they staked it. Like hate with a passion. They tucked my gorgeous house into a corner so the barn and garage can be the focus. NO no no. House is center! And make everything else work around it. Hopefully we can get it moved this weekend since the surveyer comes Monday.

Good morning! Good luck today yummeecookee and snoopmommymom! I'll be thinking about both of you! I have to get the kids off to school and then I have an ob appointment. And next week I have my 20 week scan!! Crazy! After that I have more errands to run, and then a lazy day before coaching rylands soccer practice tonight. UO: I'm ready for summer to be over. I love the long lazy days of summer, but right around now every year I start itching for cooler weather, and our busy school schedule... not to mention all the pumpkin and cinnamon scented things! And I love the holiday season so I like feeling like we're moving towards that. I don't know I like the change of season, even though our "change" is fairly minimal here! (I could also be ready for summer to be over because the quicker we get the fall, then the quicker we get to winter and the quicker this baby is here!)

Good luck today yummeecookee and snoopmommymom! I'm in the office and just got all teary eyed scrolling through Facebook seeing everyone's kids' first day of school pictures. I didn't think I would get emotional sending N to preschool next week, but now I'm not so sure! H is a snotty, coughy mess... again. His last EI was 4 weeks ago, and his ears were good at the follow up 2 weeks ago, but now he is poking and pulling at them again. Ugghh. No fever tho. How long do wait until you take them in?

Good morning. Work has been nuts already but the day is flying by. DH was supposed to crash at a friends in Boston last night because he worked yesterday and had to be at work at 7am today. He decided not to and did the hour drive home and got up at 4:45 this morning. Which means I did too. I wasn't thrilled but I got up and did my morning run anyway. Good luck today yummeecookee, and snoopmommymom! Hope your new schedules go well guster, and vino! Enjoy the week cagoldi. You need this break! How is X feeling?

He was an absolute disaster this morning, but once I got his meds in him he seemed okay. I'm not confident school won't call me to get him though.

xolastunicornxo PSL is back at Starbucks if you want to get started on fall. UO #2 of the day! I don't like the PSL. Which is weird because I really like pumpkin. My heart is with the salted Carmel mocha for my fall/winter drink.

I survived with no tears. He was happy as a clam when I left. I'm now at the gym for the first time in forever trying not to think about him. I need to get quite a bit done around the house today before I pick him up. I really just want to go home and nap though.

I'm having some mom guilt, B isn't going to preschool. The main reason is because logistically it doesn't work. Daycare or an outside preschool doesn't provide transportation. Not cool for working Moms.
He'll be switching daycares in Nov that has a pre-k room that has a focus on getting the kids ready for kinder but I wish we had that 'back to school' moment for preschool.

Good luck snoopmommymom yummeecookee and lahdeedah! We are back at school and j had a great dropoff in his new class. Granted it was the same playground dropoff and his old teacher was right there, but I'm relieved. A bunch of kids moved into N's class...and there is another N! That makes three 😔. We have her 9m appt this afternoon, so I'm excited to go to that. Of course she learned to pull up in her pnp to standing which made going to sleep a fun activity last night.

Good morning ladies. I got rid of lice from E and A (looks like T never had it), and then they returned the day after preschool on E...
I medicated them again and have all the family using that lice preventative shampoo (heavy on tea tree oil) every single morning and night. Over the top, maybe, but i do not have 4 hours a day to comb through all the hair in this house.

I feel like celebrating though that he is "back to school" after having him home for 11 days though..
