Does anyone have magic tracks? C got some and they were a huge hit with all the kids! They're really cool and fun. Only downside is the tracks are hard to clip together so an adult definitely needs to help.

Morning. J woke up screaming at 5am, I calmed her down but then she screamed once more and puked a little water-ish vomit. I think she’s back down now, so I’ll try and catch another of hour of sleep on her floor.

As we play more I'm finding them to be slightly annoying. Like the cars keep going off track even though it isn't a crazy course or anything.

Morning. My kids were up later than normal last night because Halloween party and S was up by 5, damn it. I picked up a shift in the ER today so I’ll be going to work at 10:30. I hope it’s not crazy.
Back when I was young and childless I loved to go to the bars on fall back night because we got an extra hour. Not anymore.

Cadence was up at 6. Ugh. This will be fine during the week, but not the weekend.

We have zero plans today. I'm debating even taking a shower. Normally we would go to Starbucks for breakfast, but I think I'll make french toast here instead.

Just getting the kids to bed. I️ could say this was planned because of daylight savings but that would be a lie. Truth is MH’s game took over 4 hours (they won) and I️ wasn’t about to do bedtime alone. Took the kids to Home Depot earlier for the Kid’s build event that happens once a month, then we went to a playground. After Z’s nap we made cup cakes and went to a few stores near our house. I️ keep thinking today is Sunday because I️ had yesterday off. How were all the parties? wedding how was the gtg? Who did you meet up with? Seaword, spicysalmonroll, northrnlights, meggriffin, anastasia, mrsdrg, sheilathetank, and chessie. It was fun. But I don't know them like I know you guys so it wasn't near as much fun as the D.C. gtg! It was cool to meet some new people and put faces to names.

Hi all! I just realized birthday season! How are they four?! I'm in denial.
I love the star wars cake. Fabulous. S is obsessed with cake, and I'm still trying to decide what I'm going to do for hers. I need a crash course in cake decorating. I could buy one, but she'll be disappointed not to help.
We're going mostly clothes for gifts. She's a clothes horse already, so I'm not worried about her excitement, and we don't need another toy.
Hope you're all well!

It was Dhs day to get up with C. I think he got up around 6:45, which really isn't that bad. He usually does ok with DST so hopefully he will go to bed like normal tonight.
No plans today. I want to do something though. I need to take down my Halloween decorations so maybe ill tackle that at nap. I'd also like a pedicure.
We decided to go to Boston on Veterans Day and spend the day and get a hotel for the night. I'm super excited! I have only been once since we moved and I've had a lot of homesickness for it lately. We are going to visit friends, stop by the vet clinic, go to the Children's museum and then chill at the hotel pool. C is super excited!

Colin came running down the hall at 5:30 this morning, which made sense given that he's been getting up around 6:30. I put him back to bed but he was apparently up to poop as soon as I left for my run, and was up for the day. Chase was in and out all morning, just chilling until I got him around 7:45. I can't see either of them making it to naptime or bedtime.
Colin has another party at the zoo today and we need to grocery shop, but that's pretty much it. I'm a few days into AF and my stomach is a damn mess. I want to wear sweatpants and sit in bed. At least my skin has finally calmed way down.

It's also marathon Sunday and I want to watch. Being an adult - or at least a parent - is really cramping my style.

Cadence is back to circling more stuff in the TRU catalog. She says she wants an Elf on the Shelf. I explained that it reports back to Santa each night on whether or not she was good that day. She said she would be good for her.....hmmm, may be worth it 😉

tgrimes damn, poor girl. Did the Dr. say how many days is considered too many for this? I'm concerned that it is not a birthday and something else since it has lasted so long. ETA virus, not birthday. Wtf autocorrect?

T's party is today. He's at hockey now then DS1 has a game, then the party. DH said last night "why don't we invite people back here after the party?" Nope, that goes against every reason why I planned the party to be out. Tonight I have to make some kind of snack for him to bring to preschool tomorrow for his actual birthday (or convince him he wants to bring munchkins).

Morning! Sorry for all the sickies! I hope everyone is feeling better soon. We went shopping for Josie's birthday presents yesterday, and today I'm going to run to the party store to make goody bags. I see Starbucks in my future. They're advertising that delicious holiday spice flat white, but our store didn't receive the spice blend, yet. Boo!

Sorry to all the sick kids and early risers! The boys slept until 7. I was surprised. They skipped naps yesterday so they went to bed earlier so I was sure I'd be up at 4.
