Morning friends! Work, lunch plan is to shower and deal with the dishes, also hoping to put some extra time in at work because I need to leave early Thursday and Friday and don't want to take any PTO.
I need to decide if I'm going to request off on November 13th since the kids and H will be home of if I'll just work with them here. I would have to take some extra PTO that week (most likely) because that is also a week where I'd want to leave early on a Friday. Hmm, decisions decisions.

We cleaned/organized part of the garage yesterday. So much stuff going to the trash Wednesday! I need to figure out how to tell them that one of the cans is actually trash (broken on the bottom) so that they don't leave it behind (again).
I really do wish H would be better at "organizing" though. He's trying to organize the one shelf and he says"well, this is packed lightly, I could put something else here". My response was "Why? Then we will have to un-bury the stuff that you are putting on the bottom when we want it". I can't remember what he said after that because I don't think it would have mattered much anyways.

Hi. Busy Sunday. We went to a park that we just finished and the kids had a ball. Then we went to a fall festival after nap time and it was hotter than balls outside.
busy week ahead.

Tired.
Isaac had a bad dream shortly after we moved him from our room to his. This ended up waking Ethan and he refused to sleep. Considering they share a room this kept Isaac up. We tried putting E with us, setting up the pnp. Neither worked. We put him back in the crib and prayed that Isaac would stay asleep because while we tried him in our room Isaac fell asleep. Ethan finally was asleep again between 1-2.
Kindermusik today. Nothing else going on

Hi all! I saw skinandbones sent out the bat signal on Friday. Life has been crazy busy and, frankly, has sucked a lot lately. I've been having a tough time and haven't been socializing much. That said, I miss you all and want to keep up better. I know I've missed a lot.

Feel like and slept like shit because of constipation. DS woke up coughing and stuffy but had to take him to daycare and he got really upset when I left. So far not enjoying today. Sorry for the whiney post.

Also tired. I haven’t been sleeping well, ellie came down at 1am and scared the shit out of me.
Why are we excited for this week: Grammy and granpy are back! That means presents from Germany!
And grandpa and gramma are visiting. This means MORE presents.
I’m making A’s costume and it’s turning out cute instead of my normal Pinterest fail.

I’m exhausted but today is a great day! DH started his new job this morning and all the pick up drop off logistics went smoothly. DD started her new daycare and pretty much bye Felicia’d me! Way too much fun stuff to even look back 😊 I can’t believe our A15 babies can wear backpacks and say words 😱

Over the weekend, I asked DS what he wanted to do for his birthday party. He told me Flash (so I'm going to go super heroes with a focus on Flash), and that he wants a surprise party. He wants everyone to "hide in the dark and surprise him when he walks in". So... I was hoping he wanted a party at a specific location so I didn't have to do all the work. It's not happening that way. I need to figure out what I'm going to do now and most likely have it at home. My mom already said that he could sleep over the night before the party and my stepdad can take him bowling and stuff the next morning and then bring him home like normal, but I'm still not sure how I'm going to pull this off. I don't want a large party either. Oy.

fierymama, Or you can surprise him out. Have everyone meet at the bowling alley and when he walks in they can surprise him. I mean it might not be jumping out of the dark, but he'd still be surprised to see everyone. And it won't be at your house.

I mean it might not be jumping out of the dark, but he'd still be surprised to see everyone. And it won't be at your house. My only concern with that, is he goes bowling with a specific group of people. My stepdads brother has intellectual disabilities (as do all the other bowlers) and that's where he'd go bowling. Unless, I ask my stepdad to NOT take him to that bowling and still have a party later in the day at a bowling alley.

I am busy planning DH's 30th birthday party. He wants to have an old person party (lol!). Like grey hair and canes all around. It will be our combo christmas party too. I'm laughing to myself about all the happy retirement decor I'm going to buy.
