I wish. Just tired. Last night was fun once I pulled myself together.
A has a hard time listening. She gets excited and just goes. After I got C in his car seat at DC, she ran around my car into the road and was almost hit by a car leaving. I shit you not, the way i screamed was unrecognizable. I was able to pull her arm as she turned away from the vehicle (inches from it) and they slammed on their breaks. I have never been so unsettled in my life. I was in mid yell at her not to run into the street when I saw the vehicle and the screaming manifested from that. kids man.

Here's a family pic. PDQ. It's been awhile since we've all been in the same picture.

I woke up and the dishwasher is running. This confuses me. I did tell H to run if last night. So he must have forgotten but remembered in the middle of the night?

We have our early childhood class today. Then nothing else. Not sure what else we’ll do

Oh. S1 is whimpering and whining. I just heard him tell H his throat hurts. He has never ever (and I mean never ever) complained of a sore throat before. So this makes me a little nervous.

Sometimes I hit 9 hours on accident instead of 3 or 6 and it runs so much later so it'll be on when I leave at 5:30AM.

I think Poppy’s sugar high and crash worked for us— she slept the whole night in her own bed! She didn’t wake up until almost 7!

This little girl of mine is really starting to wear on me.. it's all just normal 2yo stuff but it's friggen exhausting. I've told y'all about her crap sleep lately, so she is tired and cranky all day long, but now I can feel the point of one of her top molars poking through which explains the runny nose and general grumpiness. I give her choices all day long (which cereal she wants, which fruit she wants, which socks she wants....) And the second I give it to her or grab something different for myself, she starts losing her shit because she wants whatever I have. Like I said, normal toddler stuff but for effs sake it's been weeks like this. I feel like I'm walking on eggshells and putting out fires all day long. She also doesn't stop talking.. like ever... She narrates her whole life, so I've had to start "Quiet Times" and "Mama needs a break" time where she goes in another room and just plays by herself/leaves me alone. I feel awful about it but I really do not ever get a break from her.
Sorry that got long..
Here.. have some left over candy as a reward.
Oh and thank you for the vent space.

jedi, honey. Will he drink tea with honey and lemon? Catch it now. He will not. I had to mix liquid ibrofren with juice because he refused to drink it without.

My cat was just meowing at my feet while I made coffee and got s1 some medication. Then I showed her that she did in fact have food in her dish. But that’s not what she wanted. She wanted me to sit down so she could jump in my lap to warm up (she’s cold) and take a nap. 😒

taketheshot, it's tough. I trick my kids into eating their food when they get like this. I make a plate for them with what I actually want to eat on it and give it to them. I then make "my" plate (which is what I really want them to eat) and sit down to eat it. 99% of the time they want what mommy has so after a few half ass comments like, no this is mommy's i "trade" them plates of food. And they eat it all. It made life a bit easier during these rough times.

I really need to start eating better this pregnancy before I gain 50 pounds. I'm starting today. I already want candy.

I am listening to the Chester Bennington celebration and seriously no one can touch his vocals. No one. Now I am having all the feels about it again.

RunsforWineandCarbs- that’s terrifying, I’m glad you all reacted as quickly as you did and she’s okay. When we were having the estate sale the doors were open and A ran out of the house. I got up as quickly as I could after her, but 8 months pregnant sitting on the floor isn’t the easiest. She ran down the driveway and into the street, no car coming, but I was screaming like a crazy person, it was terrifying, I can’t imagine a car being there.

Hiiii. Hazel has been pulling up on stuff for over a month but just discovered how to do it in the crib yesterday. Before that, I could just lay her down and she’d roll over and sleep. Or talk to herself for a min then sleep. But now... she’s been in her crib for nap for 45 mins. She is standing up and just SCREAMING. I’ve gone in to lay her back down and rub her back 8 times. I don’t know what else to do, she just refuses to lie down!

I ended up needing to rock her until she was completely asleep. Almost 2 hours to get to sleep for nap... now I need a nap. Hopefully this doesn’t keep happening
