Wednesday...I think.

[Lakes]

Feels like a Thursday over here. It's a rainy day. I'll take the kids to circle time and then have a lazy afternoon. I'd like to work on sewing the curtains.

peaseblossom55 did E end up giving you a decent stretch last night?

ashtog hey lady! That sucks about your basement. I was hoping things would settle down for you.

[carrots]

Hiiiii! I've been up for 3 hours thanks to M's fun new early wakeups. She's healthy now though so we started CIO yet again today. It seems like she goes to these early wakeups when she's sick and then we have to break the cycle with a couple days of CIO. Not a pleasant way to start the day. She did eventually go back to sleep on her own but of course I was already up by then.

I'm taking a cooking class with my MIL tonight that's called Elegant Appetizers. I'm already looking forward to stuffing my face at the end of the class!

Lakes HI!!!

thanks Hun! Yeah I was too but so far no lol. I'm just thankful we have insurance and only have to pay the $500 deductible for what is basically an entire basement Reno.

Jealous of your lazy day!

carrots hi!! C has been getting up earlier too ugh. The worst when you could still be sleeping but you're up with baby who uses the term up with the sun as a life goal.

Mmmm what kind of appetizers are you making?

peaseblossom55 I did get a decent sleep from 1:30 to 6:45! Woohoo! How did you do?

L has been sick the last few days but he's better now so off to the sitter and I have a shoot. Long day again

It's dreary here to day, but I got to drive my new (used) car to work. And I found some Dunkin coupons, so I have a lunch time field trip penciled in.

Lakes - pic of the curtain fabric?
carrots - cooking class sounds like fun!
ashtog - how many photo sessions are you shooting each week?

[ellabee]

Hi ashtog!!! How are you?!

I started a curtain sewing project the other day too Lakes! I'll come back and add a pic.

You described my life carrots. B has been sick, so he's been up frequently and earlier than usual lately. Last night I had to let him cry and fuss a bit because there was no way we were getting up for the day at 4:30. ::sigh:: Solidarity ((hugs)) for you.

Enjoy your dunkin's run judyblume14! I like lunchtime field trips when I can sneak them in too. It breaks up the day.

[ellabee]

I'm doing s center pleat relaxed roman shade for the kids room. It has blackout liner.

Here's the inspiration pic:

The space:

The fabric. I have the panels sewn I just need to do all the dustboard/cord rigging.

[ashtog]

judyblume14 it varies, but one or two 5 days a week? Sometimes 6 I always make sure I get one day off. It just seems like so much because all I do is edit all the time too. C is in a sitter 2 days a week also and L is about to go to a full time day care that has an aid available for him too so that will provide more structure and routine for him. The basement has been tough for him because the Bigs are staying at my inlaws until they have their rooms back, just utter chaos.

I missed the new car( I've missed a lot!) but what did you get? Just because or did the old one bite the dust?

ellabee hi!! I'm exhausted, happy, tired, sad, and repeat a million times a day. Lol. How are you? Sorry B's been sick
The curtain looks great! I am not crafty like that lol.

[Lakes]

I just got really excited for rainy day lunch.

Omg that looks yummy! We had tuna bunwiches last night so I'm having a left over one for lunch

[Lakes]

judyblume14 my curtains are not as fancy as ellabee's. Plus I'm cheating because I bought one set of super long panels at IKEA so it's just measuring, cutting, and sewing straight seams for me. I went with a gray linen so it will coordinate with his bedding and the mountain mural.



His room. I also need to finish the art project for above his bed. One day his room will be complete!

[peaseblossom55]

E finally fell asleep around 10 she was up at 9. I'm in training today and it's so badly organized.

[peaseblossom55]

Training is over thank goodness. I'm a bit sad. I checked the nanny cams and E is just sitting on the floor playing by herself. Mil is watching her today and she was just on the couch on her iPad. I saw the same thing about an hour ago. I saw E with mil in another room at one point. I just want to leav work and go home to play with my baby.

[Lakes]

Why are kids so sticky?! Both the toddler and baby are driving me crazy with their stickiness after meals today. My hands are all dried out from wipes and soap. Bah. It was the fruit with every meal, the trifecta of apples, bananas, and the most delicious but juicy peach from a local orchard.

[peaseblossom55]

Today has been the worst day for my anxiety. E was so exhausted, she went down to sleep well tonight. H got her to sleep tonight normally I take care of bed time. I told him he is on bed duty for awhile.

[Lakes]

Anxiety sucks peaseblossom55. It's tough when it's family watching your kid. I know ds got way more screen time when mil was watching him during my long term sub which was frustrating. I hope tomorrow is a better day for you.
