Drinking soup with a straw over here. Classy.

I just started watching Blackish this morning. I've been totally missing out on how good it is. And I want every room in their house!

It's my favorite!! I am obsessed with Rainbow and was thrilled that she won last night. The twin girl is the best too.

We record it and binge watch once we both have some free time. We watched the last 3 episodes of this season this weekend and had a good laugh. Their house is pretty awesome. I want the parent's bedroom suite the most!

Glad you're felling better LizInFL. Hope C has a better day sleep-wise today.

Hugs tgrimes1980. I agree that you need a day or just a couple of hours a day to yourself to re-charge. I'm sorry you're feeling anxiety over going back to work. Please know this isn't forever. I hope you find the strength the push through these hard days.

I'm sorry you're struggling tgrimes1980. Hugs and happy baby vibes your way.

Hi! First Monday in the office since before Christmas. I'm going to actually try and do more work this week. I feel like I've spent more time doing non work related things and online shopping the last 2 months than actual work. (Shh, don't tell) Hoping things will start picking back up around here to keep me busy, but there are still better things I should be doing with my time.

Finally got C down for a nap around lunchtime and she's still conked out at 3. She started to wake up at one point and I set her bouncer seat outside the laundry room (the washing machine was filling and I thought the running water noise might help). She passed right back out and has slept through the dryer cycling, too.

Would it be weird to set up a PNP in the laundry room? LMK.

LizInFL nope, when it comes to sleep anything is allowed. My white noise app does have a washing machine sound i think, maybe something to think about!

Haha, I was just looking at white noise apps to see if I could find something!

Hi!

Work this weekend was busy and left me no time to TCF! This morning I was on a mission to do 100 errands because tomorrow it suppose to be yucky weather and I fully intend not to leave my house tomorrow (except to drop off/pick up C at the bus stop)

I went to Target, and managed to spend ONLY $50 (this may be a personal best )! I did get H some new sneakers, 2 (TWO!) sizes larger than his current shoes. How did that happen? He's now into a size 10, I'm still in shock. PSA: If anyone needs new sneakers C9 brand is 25% off, and all boots are 14.99.

bsmithmi, Hope your 1st day was fantastic!

tgrimes1980, sleep deprivation is no joke. I'm sorry things aren't improving. Hugs.

LizInFL, I'm in the camp of you do whatever you have to to get the most sleep. PNP in the laundry room? ABSOLUTELY.

cagoldi, I remember C feeding H and it melted my heart. It's nice to see them interacting with each other, and when they do sweet things for each other it makes having another all worth it.

I remember when I replaced B's very first pair of shoes, he'd grown a size and a half. I felt like the worst mom in the world for having been cramming his feet into apparently too-small shoes...but they never seemed to bother him so I guess they stretch? It's crazy how fast their feet grow.

The last pair I bought for B were 11's, and that was back in the fall. I'm kind of scared to see what he'll be when we go to buy new shoes here soon.

Lilac26, lol! N lived in her crocs ALL summer. I went to buy her new shoes this fall and she went from a 6 to a 9 (8 in some shoes). Ooops!

mwhipple77 what we get for buying clearance blind bags!

Welcome back @snoppmommymom! Tell us about the amazing time you had, please! I'm still dreaming of warmer weather and beaches. How did the kids do with your MIL? Are they feeling better? Feel free to answer my questions when you have more time on your hands🙂.

[lahdeedah88]

Lol! Sounds like quite the adventure! I'm glad you got some uninterrupted sleep.You must feel like a new woman😉!

[JoeLies]

So glad you had a good trip, snoopmommymom! You deserved it. Too funny about your phone. And your vacation twin friends!

[Cherhorowitz]

I'm glad you had a great trip, Snoop! I love T+C!

Speaking of trips, I've been making resos for Europe next week all day. I am currently reading tea menus and dreaming of sandwiches and cake.

I went to an event at a tea room this spring in Dallas. It was a first for me and I loved it! All the little sandwiches and desserts were SO GOOD. The tea was pretty good, but the food was my favorite. I'm sure it's even better in Europe. That is exciting!
