1. I love my job, but I am so tired and drained all the time, so I am totally sucking at it, and I feel really, really guilty. I just can not concentrate to save my life.
2. I let the baby fuss twice last night, and he went back to sleep both times, so only one wakeup to feed, which is perfectly fine with me.
3. The toddler has an awful diaper rash, so she woke up screaming a few times. It is making me think we may need to start actually potty training, rather than just getting her to use the toilet when she wants.
4. The weather is starting to cool off a little. Growing up in CA I loved being outside. In VA the bugs are so bad, I hate the outdoors.
5. I hate feeling dumb, and I am feeling dumb a lot right now. The sleep deprivation does not help.
6. I need to take better care of myself, but I am just surviving. I need some me time.
7. I wish my family lived closer. I hate that there are not even direct flight options.
8. I never cease to be amazed at how wonderful my kids are, and how much I love them. They may sometimes make me crazy, but I will take that any day.
9. I am getting back to working out. Ithis hard, but needed.
10. I feel bad for my husband having to put up with me, I have not been a fun person to be around.
1. I think I'm on the upswing from the cold I caught from DD1.
2. I'm watching Into the Wild while eating lunch, hoping LO takes a nice long nap so I can chill on the couch for a bit.
3. My refrigerator is STOCKED. I do my shopping on Tuesdays and always forget to check what all I have before I go shopping. There was already a decent amount of stuff in there...
4. DH and I are going out for date night tomorrow. I need to figure out what restaurant to go to.
5. Game night on Thursday, DH is going to stay home with the girls.
6. I have one more Spanish class paid for already... then I quit. I'm just totally not trying hard enough so it's just a waste of money. I need to get my head in the game before I start paying for classes again.
7. DD1 picked to have broccoli cheddar soup tonight and that makes my belly so happy.
8. I should probably stop buying a pack of peanut M&Ms and a coffee Starbucks bottled frappuccino every time I go grocery shopping.
9. My SIL's friend just had her baby at 28 weeks. Just makes me really grateful that both my girls were easy deliveries, on time.
10. I also want to start working out, even if it's just once a week for now. I want to take advantage of ciclovia while we're here.
1) pedi thinks tubs is still colicky 2) I think he just high needs 3) it is exhausting 4) he watching baby eistien 5) I bought jeans that fit 6) no eating dairy sucks 7) I am so tired 8) like the beatles song 9) i dont want a salad for dinner 10) hubs does

1. The boys and I are camping while DH works. 2. It's been raining all day. 3. Thank goodness for a camper with electric and a TV. 4. M has his nephrologist appointment tomorrow. 5. I haven't slept in days because of the anxiety. 6. I'm so ready for a vacation. 7. We leave for San Francisco the first week in October. 8. DH has a conference but I get to see the sites. 9. M has terrible reflux and I feel bad leaving him with my parents. 10. At least he STTN last night! The first time in 2 months or so.
1. I go back to work in three weeks, I think I'm ready.
2. I bought two new suits, a tote and some other stuff to make going back to work seem exciting.
3. I met someone that I would love to have as our nanny. I hope we beat out any competition.
4. I used a magic eraser on our wall and was super excited since I had never used one before. Until I realized I messed up the paint and now my OCD self is annoyed.
5. Giving up cheese was the last and hardest thing to give up before I went vegan. I understand. Nachos make me so happy.
6. FFWC I still hold LO for some naps.
7. I ate tater tots for dinner last night.
8. I didn't want SO to get Hulu since we have a million other things to watch but now I'm watching the Mindy Project, so...
9. We just bought tequila and triple sec for the first time so we could make margaritas at home. I had to ask the liquor store clerk how to make them.
10. If SO gets home early I'll go to spin class. Maybe.
Thank you for this. I have been feeling really guilty for weaning.
No, no. Please don't feel guilty. You can only make the decision that's best for you and your family.
graybaby, I was EPing for DS2, who was colicky. The second they diagnosed him with a milk sensitivity, I quit pumping and gave him formula. He was only 2 months. You've made it almost 6 months. He and you will feel so much better once the transition is complete. Good luck with weaning. I just finished and it was pretty smooth.
1. I'm feeling so thankful of my children lately. I just love the snot out of those stinkers.
2. I'm feeling more confident and adventurous as a SAHM, as evidenced below:
3. My SIL had a baby girl this weekend (she was team green) and I'm so glad our girls well grow up together. We have a niece 4 months older than A, and I hope they are close!
4. I got my period for the 1st time in 15 months today. Whomp whomp.
5. I'm wearing a tampon for the first time in 15 months.
6. Still bummed I can't fit into any prepreg pants.
7. I'm so relieved my brother's wedding is over. I was so worried about our kids, but they were all pretty good. My boys were awesome ring bearers and I sang for the first time in awhile (in public). I did fine.
8. I love my new SIL. I hope they have babies soon. I know she wants to. I hope it's easy for them.
9. I'm going to visit my good friend's baby I'm the NICU. He was born 2 weeks ago at 28 weeks. He's at the NICU where DS1 spent 24 long days. I'm really nervous about how I'll feel being there. I want to be strong for my friend, but it'll probably bring back some negative emotions.
10. I've signed up to start selling Plexus because I really like the products. A huge part of the business is using social media and I'm just uncomfortable posting about it, so I haven't done it. My only customer has been my mom!
scotty138, hoping you get good news for DS2 tomorrow! I'll be thinking of you!

1. I'm sitting in the driveway in the car with the engine running and typing this so my two will stay asleep a little longer.
2. DD wakes up like an absolute bear from car sleeps so I'm dreading the next hour before DH gets home.
3. I've been exercising for half an hour every day for the past week and it's making me feel so much better.
4. I hope I can keep it up long enough to get back into clothes I feel good wearing rather than all the oversized stuff I've been hiding myself under.
5. Getting my first period in 14 months was a definite downer.
6. DH is really stressed about our business and keeps saying how it will all be so much better when I come back. I just can't bring myself to tell him that I don't really want to come back.
7. I want to stay home and focus on my little business instead but it doesn't pay the bills.
8. I'm so sick of my kids being sick in one way or another. Hoping Summer will get us all over this never ending 'virus'.
9. LO has been a star at going down without any rocking, cuddling etc. Just into bed with his dummy and he puts himself to sleep. I hope that lasts!
10. I have my first haircut in 5 months booked tomorrow. Which is a big deal because I have a hair do that should be cut every 6 weeks! I'm all sorts of tragic in the hair department right now.
