MidWeek Randoms

[Deleted]

Haven't been up to much over here. Yesterday, DD and I went and had lunch with DH. On the way home, DD fell asleep and took a 3 hour nap. I guess her not napping finally caught up to her. I did get all the laundry done though. I think today we're going to go grocery shopping, and to the park.

We are having a pretty good week so far. Monday we went to an outdoor museum that holds a monthly preschool thing, that was fun. Yesterday we just spent a lot of time outside with our neighbors, it was a beautiful day. Today we went to storytime at the library and some light grocery shopping. DD is watching Daniel currently before nap. I have a to do list a mile long but I really just want to read! We have to go pick DD1 up from school in a few hours.

Monday we had story time, yesterday we went a hospital tour, today we went to a field trip to our local post office and to a park. It's H's Birthday and he joked with me when I didn't tell him happy birthday when we saw each other this morning. I was up to pee and didn't even think about it. He told me he doesn't want anything, but has been telling me for a while he wants a weed wacker. I found a great deal at Wal-mart through site to store. The plan is to go to Wal-mart after DD wakes up from nap to get a birthday card, extension cord, stuff to make a cake or brownies, and see if they have the one I want in store. If they don't I will just put the order from Site to Store in the bag with his card and the extension cord.

Tomorrow is my Baby Shower at DD's Mommy and Me class and I'm excited and nervous. Only 4 things have been bought off the registry so I have no idea what is going to happen.

I'm pretty sure both girls are coming down with a cold and DD2 is also teething. It hasn't been too terrible yet so fingers crossed it stays that way. My husband and I have a wedding Friday and my in laws are supposed to be watching the girls. They won't though if they are sick so now I'm stressing about what to do.

younglove316, I hope you don't need a new plan for the weekend, but I hope you are able to figure one out in case you do.


What is with all the illnesses already? A huge chunk of the people I know, including everyone in my household, has been sick with something recently. Not even all the same or similar illnesses, so lots of different stuff going around already. Seems early in the year for that number of incidents and variety. I hope it is a misperception on my part or a fluke or something and not a signal of what's in store for the winter.

Been normal busy over here. Another week of school. Monday I had my 2mo postop appt, DS had an eye doc appt, & his 5yr checkup with a new pedi afterwards. She gave us a referral for PT so we'll see if we get approved for that. Tuesday I ran some errands while ds was in school & yesterday I had a chill day at home finally.
Tonight is open house at school & soccer simultaneously. We'll see if we get done at school early enough to join soccer late.
I'm still having sinus issues & now I'm to the stage of a dry cough & hacking up mucous. Same crap happened last year so I bet it has to do with the change of seasons although the weather has stayed relatively summer-ish.

Hope the kids feel better soon forevermorgan! It's so much better for them all to get sick at once than to be drug out one at a a time!

Yesterday DS had his 4 year checkup and got 5 shots! He didn't cry and hasn't complained but his arms are both red and swollen. Last night we took all 3 kids to a Reds game. We made it 3 full innings which is pretty impressive. The kids liked being there as long as we didn't have them sit in their seats and watch the game

forevermorgan I hope your kiddos get better soon.

ashiscute Poor guy! That's a lot of shots

LO stayed asleep to his usual time somehow despite the dogs walking loudly on the kitchen floor and the one dog not only playing with MH's old plastic bottle but taking it on the kitchen floor, the part closest to LO's room, to knock it around, pounce on it, and growl at it. Thankfully, over her own racket, she heard me tell her to bring it back to the living room.

Today is laundry day, but I also plan to switch the bed sheets to the flannel set. I love fall and spring so much more than the heat of summer. I would like for LO and I to try to get in a bike ride at some point. Also, I can finally do dishes again (faucet is fixed). At the moment though, I need to now go find LO as we are starting a game of hide-n-seek.

The shower was a success. I came home with a car load of baby clothes and gear. I got some gift cards too. I plan to exchange some stuff for things I need/want more, but not much. I am so grateful to all the ladies from DD's Mommy and Me class. I already wrote out all the Thank You notes.

We are on day 3 of baby's first cold, and he's already seeming much better. He's such a happy kid, even when he's struggling to breathe through a nose of snot. I think my adoration of him somehow tripled with him being sick and snuggly. Got allllll the mommy feels.

In other news, the in laws are here. It's been relatively okay, no major drama lol. We are going to hit up the farmers market tomorrow. Then Saturday we are checking out the local orchard/petting zoo before they head home. It's nice to see them but I'll be happy to have my house back soon.
