Finally Friday with a little FFFC thrown in

[trtlcrzy]

H has been sleeping for at least 3 hours. She clearly isn’t feeling well. She fell asleep during her rest time which has happened exactly 1 other time. Now I’m just trying to decide if I leave her or wake her up. It’s 5:30 right now.

Also, hiiii! I spent the day at home since Chase's fever isn't going anywhere. I worked a half day and baked some cookies too, so I feel accomplished.

Colin wants his birthday party to be PJ Masks-themed so I found little matching cape and mask sets for favors, rather than getting little bags of stickers and candy. It's coming out to about $4 a kid and I figure even if they aren't fans, all kids like to dress up, right? Now I just have to figure out a cute way to package them up.

We finally settled on PJ Masks last night. I might steal this idea.

Are you okay with her staying up late? I'd probably get her up no later than 6:30, try to get some juice and crackers in her, then hope she's ready to go back to bed around 9.

I think I’m going to wake her up in a little bit. I made soup for supper so I’m hoping she likes it.

And about a minute after I posted that she came out of her room.

Oh gosh flamingo hope he's not gone too long. It sounds pretty nuts down there, so I'm glad some professional are en route.

FFFC: I emailed the soccer mom lead and told her I didn't like that the big brothers played in the mini game at the end of last week's practice. It had only been parents vs. kids and the coach, but last week 4 older kids showed up and totally dominated the game. I was that mom worried about her snowflake not getting a chance to play. Meh, somehow I doubt younger kids are allowed to play at older kids practice.

Well, you're not paying to watch the older kids take over completely.

Guys, inthekitty is awesome, her girls are beyond adorable, and her dh is a sweetheart. (He is also rylands new best friend!) it was so great getting to “meet” her!

[joelies]

Yay meetups!! That makes me even more excited about a gtg next year!!

[chrisy01]

Started decorating for Halloween since I didn't have a toddler with me. I also went shopping at the mall and target and donated clothes to a charity. It was a very productive day

flamingo I thought he was a pilot, he does ATC too? That is what mh did in the marine corp. He has been delayed going to PR/VI due to the poor conditions. Since he is roofing they are waiting until the living conditions are improved. Can't drive around an island with tarp for roofs if you can't drive water around. I hope YH doesn't have to be gone long.

He is, but in his current job he's attached to a squadron that does air ops planning for the marines.

(The Navy pays millions of dollars to train a pilot but the higher rank you get, the less you fly :/ He's hoping to get back to it next set of orders).

Glad your H hasn't had to go down yet. Hopefully when he does conditions will have improved. My H talked to a guy on the ground in PR today who said there are ships stacked up in the harbor filled with fuel and supplies--it's just a matter of finding places for the ships to pull in to be unloaded, etc. So at least stuff is getting there.

xolastunicornxo and I had so much fun! It's so cool to finally get to meet someone after so many years. She and Ry are every bit as awesome as I imagined.

[inthekitty]

I shave 365 days a year. Every great now and then I'm running late(r than usual) and don't have time so I skip it. It's not just the dark leg hair that bothers me, it's so effing thick and scratchy it feels like sandpaper. Can't stand it.

[inthekitty]

Great news about the insurance coverage cagoldi and on a good US!

[inthekitty]

My period decided to be 5 days late. I poas last night and it was one line. Wahoo! So of course I'm starting my period on vacation. I know it's stupid, even though we're 2 and done and I wanted a negative, it's still also always a little sad to get a negative.

[inthekitty]

wedding have you seen any of the military homecoming videos where they reunite with their pets? Those are so cute, I love them. The kid ones usually don't get to me as much because a lot of them are super gimmicky. Like the service member is wrapped up in some giant box. Obviously it doesn't impact me in any way, but I can't help but think why keep the kid away from the parent longer than necessary and have the parent in an uncomfortable box for a while? That make me eye roll. I'm more touched by the videos with the older kids though because they seem to just go right to happy tears.

I get this. We are two and done also, but I think there will always be that little part of me that wonders about a third.

[snoopmommymom]

Guys, I'm so behind on this week's threads Can anyone tell me if I missed something major?!

I'm a mess. My "kitchen" is a microwave and toaster in our family room, our reno is coming along but still so far from being done. Our newly renovated basement got water from the kitchen and we had to rip out the carpet and some drywall so it's a disaster.

Oh and O was extremely tired tonight (falling asleep at restaurant and in car, went to bed 1hr early) and cried that the back of his head/neck hurt real bad so now I'm spiraling. He woke up two nights ago motn and told me his head hurt and he's never ever said that before. Thinking back, he landed on his head a few nights ago when he slipped off the couch. So now I'm worried something major is wrong.

[chrisy01]

snoopmommymom give him some Tylenol and a back and neck massage after a warm bath. If he still hurts on Monday I would take him in

[klong11]

So Cadence is in a 4t panty. Toddler apparently only goes up to 4t. Move to the girls section and the sizes are 4, 6, and 8. So are the 4s like 5s or should I get the 6s? Ugh, why is nothing easy?

[kim22]

2 goals for my big guy tonight! He and DH dashed out of his game to another rink to see my nephew play. Tomorrow I'm hoping to squeeze Apple picking in before soccer and then DH will be gone overnight for his class reunion.

I'm 28 weeks tomorrow, I don't know how that happened.

[flamingo]

I'm just going to leave this here if anyone needs a laugh.

I'm sure they'll discover how much kids sleep once they have one or watch someone's kid for them.

klong11 so it sounds like we will be coming your way for a long weekend in November. H's last interview today confirmed that they want him and will wait til he has recovered. I told him I have a friend to meet and he was totally cool with it!

Sierra puked again tonight. I hate this...something seems off. This is the 4th time in 2 weeks. I hope it's not her shunt and that it's just a bug. We are going to monitor and possibly request an MRI if it continues. I don't want to be the over reacting mom if it's just a bug, but I also don't want to be the under reacting if it's her shunt. Plus I hate to think of her in pain if the shunt isn't draining and she's got pressure on her brain.

[klong11]

lfig oh no. I hope it is just a bug and she feels better in the morning.

[klong11]

How did bedtime go trtlcrzy?

[cagoldi]

You think he might be concussed, snoopmommymom? Hope everything is alright.

FX things settle down for S and it's just a big, lfig.
