I got up early today so I could make sure I had enough time for my sugar check so now I’m exhausted. Lots of meal prep for tomorrow after H gets home later.

Y’all I’m SO exhausted. Done w pregnancy, done w hosting my family lol. It’s not that bad just my two sisters. But I’m SO tired. Everything hurts & I can’t sleep on the couch like I usually do bc my sister is sleeping there. We prepped most of our food today & somehow fit it all plus the turkey in our small fridge. I’m ready to eat a lot tomorrow & watch the Vikings play!!

So I'm having a pregnancy moment.
Basically my mom and I used to split watching my DD, I would keep her on wfh days and bust my ass when I was in the office and my mom would watch her when I was in the office. My mom decided over the summer she couldn't watch her anymore and so I had to scramble to find care. We ended up with an unlicensed in home because it was the only thing in our budget that could take her.
We've been thru rashes, last minute cancels, pet adoptions without our approval, etc and now my kid is coming home saying "fucking kids". She's 2.
Im about to burn this lady tf down. But I have 2 months until mat leave. I'm at the point where I just feel like groveling at my mom's feet to see if she could manage for 2 months with her until I go on mat leave (already decided both girls will be going into an actual DC with controls, I just have a lot of research to do)
It's just so stressful because I just want to do the best for her and my gut didn't like this lady at first but it was basically our only option so we've been trying to make the best of it. I mean I'm in tears sobbing over it right now. She's healthy, smart, polite, a few curse words aren't the end of the world so long as we correct at home and we aren't there long term. But I'm having a really hard time sending her back there Monday.
We do have "dependent care hours" at work thru my benefits I can use a severely discounted rate for which is not too much more than I pay now, so I'm going to look into those centers next week to see how fast they could possibly cover 2 months for me. I'm just concern with shaking up her routine when she does seem happy there.
Sorry. Not about my F18 but.. Yea.

sunfrogger I would want my 2 year old outta there ASAP. That doesn't sound like a great place for her. Do what you can to make it happen!

Welp. I just experienced painful Braxton Hicks contractions for the first time. Really intense pain in my lower side of my abdomen. Luckily it passed. But that was no joke!

Good morning! I’ll have all three girls home today by myself with no real plans. Wish me luck. Lol. We need to bake a cake and continue moving stuff around in rooms. Question, for those of you considering going with wi-fi video monitors, do you plan to watch it on your phone, or something else? We’ve always had a regular video monitor, need a new one, but the recommended are wi-fi. I can’t get past needing a device to see my kid on. I watch on my iPhone. I get an alert if there is movement or sound if I am using my phone for something else. We also have 2 old iPhones that we use as monitors, too.

DH is on his way home so we should be on the road in an hour or so. We have a 2ish hour drive in normal traffic and we should be leaving early enough to beat the worst of the traffic in our area. I went to Jo Ann Fabric this morning to get some fabric that was an early Black Friday sale and I'm so glad I went. It was kinda busy for a Wednesday morning but nothing compared to what it will probably be on Friday. I barely had to wait at the cutting counter! I'm making a chenille baby blanket where I make my own chenille by cutting layers of flannel on the bias and I got the most adorable fabrics! I'm also making two more matching ones for a set of twins, their Mom is due one week before me (officially anyway) and I found cute airplane fabric which is perfect since their dad is in the Air Force. So many cute bumps! I have made that chenille blanket. Did you get a chenille cutter? I would invest.... It is so worth it! I've made 3 so far. I need to make one for my best friend and one for this baby. They take forever.... Like 20hrs in total work. Let me dig out pics of the one I made my DD. Yup, I have the Chenille Cutter, the first one I made was back in Feb/March and I've done a lot of sewing since then. I'm guessing that my increased experience will help me finish these a little faster than the first one. I'm better at sewing a straight line at higher speeds than I was, and I have a walking foot that will help keep the layers from bunching up.
