How was the start of your week? What is going on the rest of the week? Let's chat

cam Maybe you can do a craft check-in today...

Our week has been good so far. Monday I took DD to Story Time and yesterday H's grandparents came to see our house. They really helped convince us we should look into buying when we weren't sure we'd be approved so it was a big deal. Today I have fillings to get done Tomorrow or Friday I really want to get to the pool.

This is the last week of most of DS' summer camps.
Last Wednesday of a full 7-3:30 schedule for DS today. Kindercamp, home, speech, & handwriting camp. Still debating if I'm going to come home or not while he's in his afternoon camp (it's about 15-20 min away) but for now I veg until he comes home on the bus.

I was going to take the kids swimming today but I'm just too dang tired.

Monday and Tuesday were NUTS. Monday we had lunch and play date with a friend, and then DS1 has karate in the evening. Tuesday DS1 had camp in the AM, then my sister came over, then we went out for anniversary dinner. Today a friend was supposed to come over but she cancelled. Secretly thrilled because I just want to walk around my house in my pajamas and no bra all day.

It's been a pretty slow week here. Monday I think the highlight of the day was going to the park for a while. Yesterday, DD and I sat down to write out some thank you cards for her birthday. I let her use crayons to draw on the cards and she underlined every word I wrote. DD is asking to go to the park again, so we might go do that soon before it gets too hot.

LO slept in which I think he really needed. Lots to get done around the house the rest of this week because we are a bit behind schedule due to extra vet stuff that was needed and a migraine plus tension headache that rendered me practically worthless yesterday. Nicer temperatures for actually being able to enjoy the outdoors should start tomorrow, so hopefully we can enjoy while still sticking to our to do list since we have company coming Sunday afternoon.

Dd has her first loose tooth. I'm going to let her pick out some fabric out of my scrap pile so I can make a tooth pillow.

penguin129 good luck with the fillings!
Sounds like busy day @namastebiotches! Enjoy that quick veg!
hotcoconuts82 hope you can find something equally fun to entertain but can rest too.
mrsmuq hope you're enjoying your bra free day, hah! Happy anniversary.
@auri your DDs contribution to the thank you cards is cute
cam sorry you've had a rough beginning of your week!
Pretty hot here today. We played outside for just a little bit. I got the kiddie pool emptied and rinsed for an afternoon swim playdate. I also got DDs prune yogurt pouches made this am. About to put her down, put away baby clothes and throw another load of baby clothes in the wash before I have lunch and veg a little.

We drove about 1.5 today to visit my husband's grandparents and then after lunch with them we are going to this little petting zoo type thing before we head back home. Of course in the 10 minute drive to lunch DD2 fell asleep so I'm chilling in the car for now.

I need some advice and sorry if this is long. Monday DD1 spiked a fever and was very lethargic and not herself. There were no real symptoms except she said her head hurt. Yesterday she woke up completely back to normal. Today she woke up super whiny again, has a slight fever, and we noticed a pretty decent size sore on the side of her tongue. She's crying everytime she eats but we can't get a good look at it. My husband said it looks like its sliced pretty good and thinks she bit it. Any ideas?

If its her tongue and it's been bit, it should heal on its own. They won't do stitches. Salt water rinses may help, though she's kinda young to get the concept.
But because there's a fever and it's summertime, you should also consider hand foot and mouth. It's a virus so there's not much to do except symptomatic treatment.
In my office, we say if the fever is over 100.4 for longer than 72 hours, even intermittently, to get her checked out. Sooner if she's not drinking, not peeing, inconsolable, lethargic obv.

younglove316 hope your daughter feels better.

Swimming lessons are going well for DS1. I wish I would have been more of a planner because we'll be gone from the next sessions.

DS2 finally started official tantrums. I need a spot for "baby's first tantrum" in his baby book (which hasn't been filled out in 6 months). He was mad about his nap. Kid, you're way overtired and you're throwing a fit... you WILL fall asleep, just let mom win this one.

My dentist appointment went well. Apparently I have a chip in my front tooth they said needs to get repaired or it could get damaged more so I'm going back next week. I spent about 2 hours shopping alone after my appointment.
