We are on our way home from gymnastics. In the hour we were there, it started blizzarding. We have a 20 mile drive home. I’m glad Dh came with so he can drive because i would be panicking if I were driving.

We got our maternity/family photos and after a quick skim I love them! It’s always such a gamble using a new photographer but I think she did a good job! Now off to order Christmas cards!!!

wedding, it startled him. It didn’t hurt him and you had no intention of hurting him. The number of times I have thrown N’s pull-up at him and walked out of the room because he was kicking and fighting me... those moments are hard and solo parenting most nights takes a huge toll. ETA >> let me know if you want me to delete this

Just finished our 2nd 4 minute timeout for cat tail pulling. Cadence has become super obsessed with the cats lately and isn't listening when they protest her too tight hugs.

Quick check in now that I'm caught up. Drive safely, everyone dealing with SNOW. DNW. Don't beat yourself up, wedding. I've unintentionally hurt Col (minorly, thankfully) when he's been misbehaving and I'm trying to get him back on track. He's super clumsy so it actually happens more than I'd like to admit. snoopmommymom - Sorry about the bite. Chase also got bit today. And twice last week. Part of it is that he's AWFUL about sharing and thinks it's funny to pester friends even when they've clearly let him know they don't like it. And part of it is just LOs being little. It sucks though.

C just pooped in the tub. For the 3rd time in a row. Clearly he's doing it on purpose. It makes me really really angry. From 6:30am gingerbread houses to poop in the tub, you’ve had quite the day. Hopefully the night is uneventful.

We made it to my sisters just fine. We saw 6 cars in the ditch on the way. We are headed home now, super icy but not blowing too much anymore.

As for me, I took the day off for my consult. But first I got in a great run, did some laundry, cleaned up my jogging stroller, attended a call for a work-related committee I'm on, and successfully consigned my swing and jogging stroller (!!!!). After my consult, I had to take another work call and pick up a few things at the pharmacy.
So the consult - warning I'm going to throw it all out there. DH is very much trying to stay out of it, so I haven't talked about it to anyone!!
I love the surgeon. She put me immediately at ease and I never felt pressured. She said I'm a surgeon's dream because although I am a bit deflated, I'm not saggy so it's basically a good starting point. Um, that's only because there's not enough there to sag! LOL. Because of my age, she wants me to get a mammogram beforehand just to be safe and she prefers to wait a full year after weaning to operate. That puts me at April at the earliest, which may mean waiting until the fall (cooler weather/more clothes while they settle). Plus April would mean a spring marathon is out of the question, which may or may not matter. I'm a bit bummed but I get it. This doctor was recommended by a friend (who looks amazing) and the practice is consistently rated the best in CT, so I trust her opinion.
Anyhow we talked about this new saline implant that has chambers vs. just the traditional single chamber. It's supposed to feel more natural in motion like a silicone implant, but with the peace of mind of saline. She said I could get away with placing them entirely over the muscle because of the size (we looked mostly at 200 and 250, but I think 225 would be ideal) to reduce recovery time, but I'd rather take an extra week or so of recovery and go under the muscle. It should look better and there should be less sagging with time.
I definitely want to move forward, it's just a matter of timing. DH is supportive, in that he wants me to do what I want and he wants me to do it right. Decisions, decisions.

So, I want to get B into a certain gymnastics program for the Jan-April intake. Word on the street is that it’s popular and hard to get into. So much so that when the classes are released online, it’s recommended to book it right at midnight.
Guess who’s setting an alarm for midnight...this gal.

Hopefully the night is uneventful. Lol, maybe the tub pooping is a direct consequence of giving my kids so much sugar at 6:30am... I set myself up for failure!

joelies thats exciting! I can't wait for mine! wedding something similar happened with peach the other day. I was begging him to just clean up the toys and he was stalling and whining and throwing a fit. I jerked a train he was playing with from his hands and he tried to fight me for it and got hit in the face with the train.. I sobbed. Not like I threw the train at him but I was just so frustrated and at the end of my rope and hindsight: I should have walked away and cooled down for a minute. But it happens. They are such little ass holes and we are human. We make stupid choices in the moment.
