Tuesday... At least it's not Monday !!

Morning ladies!

Hugs and coffee to everyone who had a bad night.

[rachaeleigh]

Our night was so much better than the previous night. We gave her tylenol and a teething tablets at 7, she slept until 1145. I gave her the same combo and then she slept until 345!
At that point, I pUT her into bed to feed her. I got up at 6 to shower, put her back in crib. I think she's still up there sleeping but I left the monitor with DH so I don't know.
I feel like I've been fighting something off the last few days. My body is achy and my stomach is really upset and hurts. It kind of comes and goes throughout the day. Who knows, because I'm also completely exhausted, so that could be it.

We are working on tooth #4 so I'm pretty sure that would explain our bad nights. At least I hope so. All she wants to do is chew on her bottle and our fingers.

My night wasnt any worse than usual. Up how ever many times, gave up and bring C to bed. The usual.
I'm WFH today and C is here, full of energy - crawling all over the place, being a little busy body. It is definitely getting a bit harder and part of me is wondering would he have had more fun in DC today? Oh well. I like spending time w him!

Night was ok, but E's wake up time was 4:30. Thankfully I go to bed by nine now. She was already up at 2:30. I know she's teething so I'm sure that some of it, but damn, sleep is good!

[samelly]

I have company arriving tomorrow, so I'm cleaning all day.

My night was actually ok (especially compared to the shit show of Sunday night bedtime). He got a really good nap in the afternoon - like a good 2 hours AND he took a paci which helped when he woke up at 10:30 (which has not happened since the 2 month mark). DH brought him into bed at 3am and he slept til 6:30.

My friend has been couponing for a while now and she told me about this diaper deal a couple of weeks ago. My dad had all these coupons (his circulars had about 4 coupons inserts) so I ended up buying 8 packs. I understand why people get obsessed with couponing - the feeling you have when you get a good deal is like a high! lol So I'm going to try it out. She's been giving me tips and told me of another diaper deal - the thing is DH said no more diapers because we have a lot right now - like a 3 month supply (right before she told me about the deal, my order of 174 diapers from Amazon came). So I think I'm going to go to CVS after work, not tell him I'm making a pit stop and just show up with 4 more packs of diapers.

My WFH setup (note laptop in background). He'll prolly last about 5more min before he gets tired of being in there.

POof

[yummeecookee]

I'd love to know how to do that couponing littleowl913.

Haven't read up on Mondays thread yet, yesterday was so busy. Every time I come visit family it's a whirl wind event. Anyway so far my mom, dad, step parents and sister know I'm KU. Surprises all went well.

DH has called me 3 times since I left. The man is a mess. He's even creating stressful situations for himself. He never freaks but when he does, watch out!

We had family pictures done with my mom yesterday. This is a preview of the girls. (No quotes, I'll poof it later). I'm very much in love with this shot too. I can't wait to get all of the pictures from both shoots.
*poof*

Slightly better night. DD resisted going down and then woke at 4. I fed her and would go to put her down and she would cry, rinse and repeat a few times. Finally around 5:15 DH asked if we could just bring her into bed and now she is still asleep there at 7:15 and I need her to wake to eat again before I leave for work! At least I slept a little better before 4 am, only checking the temp in her rm and her once.

Sorry, TMI paragraph. I'm so pissed that my hemorrhoid flared back up as bad as when I was 9 mo preg with this period. Oh a weirdly happy note, I'm on day 3 of it, which is longer than any of my periods were when TTC (and I had thin lining as part of our problem conceiving), so maybe my body has sorted that out?! Probably wishful thinking.

[ldubhawksfan]

OMG littleredfish that is so adorable!!

Damn hemorrhoids! But yay for the longer period!

[littleowl913]

yummeecookee , me too lol. I've only done one small shopping trip so far. My friend has been sending me deals or screen shots from some different websites especially from this one. It has individual posts but also breaks it down by store so it's easy to figure out.  I think a lot of the deals you need multiple coupons that you cannot print online. My friend has about 5 different newspapers delivered on Sundays just for the coupons.

I'm probably the only woman in the world excited about a longer period! Lol

Good morning ladies. I've been terrible at keeping up both here and on the FB group. I'm going to try and do better!

littleredfish that pic is sooo sweet! I love it.

I'm jealous of you Americans and your couponing abilities. You just can't get as good of deals up here

[colinsfebmommy]

littleredfish, OMG ADORABLE

[mtnmomma13]

littleredfish, did I miss your update on how your DH reacted to your cupcakes?!

Hahaha. Yes. He was very shocked. He is still shocked. He was done at 2, plus we have a lot going on right now with our posting, house on the market, pending move, his brothers wedding (which he probably can't attend because our van died). He keeps assuring me he is happy, just very stressed lol.

[younglove316]

littleredfish how adorable!!

Me too. My WFH days end up being half productive and half email monitoring. But. I'm happy to be here with her!

I love couponing! I started really getting into it about a year ago but it's such a great feeling when I see that total saved at the bottom.

Also, use rebate apps. You can get money back on stuff you are already buying and I know it's legit because I've gotten checks in the mail

[fuzzylogic]

Not much going on here. Just watching GG's while E plays around the living room and babbles.

I'm still waiting on a period. CD35 which isn't crazy, I've had longer cycles. Got a negative FRER so I don't think it's that. GUH. I need something to happen. I told H my period was taking its sweet time and he said "impossible!" lol. He was all "let's have two" but I think he's just as emotionally and financially not ready as me.

[allycat]

I feel like this is my constant refrain, but...

I miss sleep. So, so much.

Newest fascination is cords. That is NOT ok....
And I'm gasping every time I see him raising to standing! Climbing furniture and stuff.

E climbed the sofa for the first time yesterday. Well when I mean sofa I mean me. I wasn't paying attention and all of a sudden there he was right between my legs grabbing onto my pants.  He was so proud of himself.
