Hi hi.
So N's fav teacher told me today that next week is her last week...she's going on maternity leave (I didnt know she was expecting 😯) I'm so bummed, she's the sweetest. Now stalking her online so we can get her a gift. She's good at acting like N is her favorite and calls her Toots and they are best buds, gah.
I had great success at the big kids consignment sale yesterday. J got a bruder trash truck for $7 and he is legit in heaven. He keeps thanking me and wants a trash truck on his bday cake.

As I worry about vino, that "Baby, come back" song is playing in my head. LOL

C is obsessed with my ultrasound picture. He keeps showing L and saying, "Girl, we're having a baby!!!" and hugging her. He also asked where in my belly the baby is so he can tickle him and he named him Vinny. I really hope everything goes ok since he is so excited.

Appointment went well! May 6 due date. cagoldi, when do you go for your first appointment? Friday afternoon. Congratulations on a good appointment! I realized I calculated my LMP wrong so I think my EDD is 5/8. Of course they might adjust this based on the dating U/S. My babies always run big, even that early they usually measure a couple days ahead so I wouldn't be at all surprised if we wind up with the same due date!

Better, thank you. I think I decided to start my infusion. My skin is freaking out and I'm just feeling run down so... Sorry you missed your night out. What a bummer. Hope J takes it easy on you tonight.

Does that mean Vincent will have to be on the table for boy names?

And last week he announced "next time you have a baby, we should name it Ella!"🤔 Not sure where he got that idea. Also Ella used to be my fav name, but would be ridiculous with my married name.

C always picks his friends names. He has a friend with my name, which isn't common, and so he wouldn't mind the baby having that name as well.

tallb don't know your budget, but you can never go wrong with an Aden and Anais swaddle blanket. I loved getting those big ones and the kids still use them a lot!

Yay for a good appointment wineallthetime! Last night Maddie wet the bed again. Have no clue why because she didn't drink much and peed twice before bed. I found her this morning laying on a playpen mattress on the floor with a way too small blanket shivering. I then discovered why she wasn't in bed. She said she cleaned herself up but didn't want to wake us because she knows we like sleep and that I need my rest before work. Such a sweetheart. Of course I told her in the future please wake me rather than freeze.

X has started talking a bit more recently and it's super cute. I love this age when they are communicating a little. He's already been eager to show off the few things he knows in sign language but hearing his little voice is much better.
I'd rather he put more effort into walking though. When will this kid get moving? I'm tired of carrying him around in his bucket seat!

I just switched H to a convertible because it was too hard for me to carry it.

Speaking of walking cagoldi, B isn't walking yet either but he will take like 1 step (from holding on to the table to the couch or similar). I believe he can do it. He's just lazy

He still hasn't hit the limit (can't recall what it is) but yeah, my shoulder is screaming for mercy. I don't know how my mom does it, she's super tiny.
I think I'll ask Pete to switch his seat this weekend.

I always have fun with chrisy01, of course, and we had lots of time to chat as we battled the LA traffic. Sing is exactly the way I imagined: sweet and spunky. Funny too. So glad she set aside some time for us to meet. She posted some pics to FB and I don't mind posting them here but I'm not sure she's okay with it. I can ask.

I went so long in the bucket seat with both kids -- Josie was 16 months, and Charlie was 14. my right arm was like popeye by the time I was done with them both.

Hi girls! We've been road tripping all day. MH has a work trip and we tagged along. I'm on 3 hours of sleep and agreed to split driving but I'm so exhausted. I just can't. We're still waiting for the seller to enter into contract so my stress level is wonderful.

I actually haven't switched the seat, so he's still in the bucket seat, but I just leave the bucket seat in the car and use it like a regular seat. Which reminds me... I still need to get 2 new carseats!

Hey. Thanks for the tags. A few things have happened; I'm overwhelmed and I'm just about at my breaking point. I know I can't be a positive contribution to the board right now.
Thanks for thinking of me.

I've found her registry, so I may get her something she needs and then maybe a Hanna Andersson sleeper I picked up on sale for a future gift.
