We are sort of busy but not too much. I went and picked up a FB marketplace purchase this morning, I finally found a bookshelf/organizer for the nursery closet. DH took E to a state park nearby to play and explore. This evening we have a Halloween party with neighborhood friends. I'll post a pic of us dressed up if we get a good one. I need to get some fennel for the salad I'm going to bring to the party! Then tomorrow, I plan to go to my art class in the morning and we'll go to my parents' house for dinner in the evening...it is nice to not have to think about fixing dinner on Sundays when my mom does dinner (most weeks!). How are the babies doing, pippiann and teraiin?

DS is probably wearing his superman costume and I'm wearing my pumpkin belly shirt. I doubt DH will dress up.

Morning! I've been cleaning/organizing all morning, H took the kids grocery shopping. MIL is coming for a little visit this afternoon. This evening the 4 of us are going to a fundraiser exhibition hockey game in town. It's going to be so busy so we'll stick around as long as I can stand up haha.
Today is the last fall like day in the forecast, so it looks like winter is starting! Nothing but snow and continually dropping/below freezing temps in the 14 day. So H will get our Christmas lights up on the house tomorrow before it gets too snowy, and we can do some pumpkin carving in the afternoon!
Have a good weekend!

Currently coasting with DS until he seems really ready for a nap. He’s been boycotting daytime sleep lately. Saturday is a loooong day because DH works a double, I need him to nap so I can decompress! And binge the new Stranger Things season.

Hi y’all. I’m exhausted— was up early to tailgate for FL/GA game with some friends! We had a new sitter today (our regular girl’s BFF) and it could not have gone better!! DD looooved her and had so much fun. She’s so sweet so I’m glad to have another option for when our regular sitter is busy.
The tailgate was fun, DH got so drunk right away haha. The first time he has really drank a lot in awhile. I was the only one not drinking obvs but still had a blast with our friends! My best friend & her hubby got the tailgate spot so it was a bunch of our close friends. I played all their drinking games but had Gatorade instead lol. I left after a few hours & I think DH was able to find a cheap ticket into the game bc he is still not home haha.
Anyway I’m on the couch watching tv and DD is napping...I fell asleep for a bit but I’m glad she is still sleeping.

I graded papers while watching Roseanne all morning. We went to MILs for lunch and decided to visit for a bit. DH and I decided to come home so he could do a house project that he swears needs to be done before baby (I disagree but whatever) and I am grading papers again. I could totally go for a nap right now! If I get semi caught up on grading we may go see my mom and sisters tomorrow.

I ran errands with the girls today and it was one of those days where they both cried and screamed and melted down the whole time. Ughhhh. I got to watch some football and my team won, so we celebrated with fro yo and after we get the kids to bed hubby and I are going to continue binging Stranger Things. All in all a good day!

Hey ladies! I saw L this morning and pumped so he’d have fresh milk. I had to stop bring milk bc I filled the freezer. 🤷🏼♀️ now I will probably fill mine. It’s def hard having a babe in the NICU, I feel guilty when I can’t stay long enough to hold him. I really hope they’ll transfer him back to the hospital in walking distance from my house soon (they only take 32+weekers).

At least I am starting to feel better. I need to get my house in order. I also need to get the energy to finish up school stuff, I was supposed to graduate in Jan and I do not want to pay for another semester. Getting a c-sec is no joke. Prompts to all you ladies that do it with a baby. Thankfully M has understood that mommy has a boo boo and can’t pick him up.

Sounds like your production is awesome, pippiann! I can imagine the Mom guilt is strong when you have a little one in the NICU. You are doing everything you need to do to keep him happy and healthy, even though I’m sure leaving the hospital is hard. I didn’t realize you had a c-section as well. AND you are in school. You are a rock star! I hope you’ll let us know if you need anything. Thinking of you.

pippiann Ive been thinking about you! Glad you got to see your little guy today and that you have a good supply. Ive had one C and found the recovery to be really rough. It gets much better though and one day you will forget you even had one!

Stranger Things is waaaay too scary for me.

I guess I just posted our social media "pregnancy announcement." I put up our pic in our Halloween shirts and they are all skeletons showing what is in our bellies...candy for DS and beer and pizza for DH and of course baby for me. Super easy but I think we were cute!

Hey ladies!
I was released from the hospital yesterday. It was so hard to leave the boys even though I know they are in amazing hands.
Z (Baby A) had his breathing tube removed last night so at the moment both babies are breathing independently. 🤞 J (baby b) is still doing well And may be starting some small feeds with my milk starting Monday.
It's going to be a long slow road but I will be forever grateful to everyone who helped save my babies. ❤️

I am on a little trip with 2 of my best girlfriends and our littles. They both live in the town 3.5 hours away where I used to live so we rent a house in the town in between. It’s sooo good to be with them but unfortunately DS has been a handful because he has a cough and is working on 4 molars.

Hi! We woke up and went to IHOP for breakfast. It’s G’s favorite. 😊 Then we went to target for a bit. Now we are heading home to relax. It’s rainy and gross out today. I think I’m going to make spaghetti and meatballs for dinner.

Ended up not so pleasant as DH came home super late & still drunk so I was annoyed lol. But otherwise good times! Haha

Happy to hear things are going the best they can teraiin and pippiann!!! Both H and I got visiting with a bunch of people at the hockey game last night and the kids were happy with a bucket of toys and their friends that someone put in the lobby so we stayed the whole game, both kids were still happy walking/running home in the dark at nearly 10pm, and DD is still sleeping haha (it's 10am here). Pretty lazy Sunday morning!

I’m happy for the great updates teraiin and pippiann! I’m still sick. I went to the doctor yesterday and of course it’s viral so I’m taking sudafed and a nose spray so I think it will take a while to actually get better. So I’m being lazy this weekend. I have so much to do to get ready for this baby which is stressing me out. Hopefully next weekend we can make it a priority.
