The week begins on Mondays, right?

What's going on in your world this week

[littlelion]

sgio7485 oh no, that sounds horrible. I hope your efforts pay off and you & Leo do not get it.

[littlelion]

Hi ladies. Today is a good day. Alex wasn't up all night so I feel well-rested. I mean, he was still up every 2 hrs but that's an improvement.

There are 3 areas of my house I want to tackle cleaning/organizing. The pantry is overflowing. The nursery has more bags full of clothes for both Leo and Alex that need sorting. And then the kitchen nook area which somehow ends up as a dumping ground. If I can get those 3 done this week I'd feel so accomplished.

[ourcrazynavylife]

littlelion I feel the same way about our kitchen counter. I still haven't figured out how to keep it from being a catch-all. It drives me & DH bananas.

[ourcrazynavylife]

DH has the holiday off today. We're waiting on him to come home from surfing. Done some laundry and ordered a cross stitch pattern for little man's room. Now to put away diapers THEN coffee & food.

I might've done this morning backwards. Haha

[ourcrazynavylife]

Omg. Haha. I'm dying laughing over here.

Brought to you by our adventures in potty training.

DH just exclaimed that he doesn't understand girl pee. He says it's "not consistent" and just "comes out every which way".

Then tried to blame me for peeing on the front of the toilet. No dude. That's still all you.

Haha

Hard to believe lo is 2 today! He got an easel for his birthday and he spent all morning playing with it. He loved all his balloons from his birthday party too- they're starting to deflate so he was kicking and throwing them all around.

He woke up with a fever after nap though. He looked pretty rough but perked up a bit after dinner. He kept complaining that his belly hurt, but his belly button was also red and irritated from him messing with it. So who knows... Fx he gets a good night's sleep and feels better in the morning.

sgio7485 keeping Fx you guys don't get it!!
littlelion yay for a better night's sleep!
ourcrazynavylife LOVE the name!!
nemomof2 how you hanging in there with all the ice?

This is my life. When the counter gets full it overflows to the kitchen table. And when we do straighten it up it's a disaster just a few days later.

Hi ladies sorry I have been very MIA lately. I usually try to post when I am at work but work has been crazy busy. So I am in bed now and thought of you so figured I would check in. We are doing good I can't believe I have a 2 year old!!! Where has the time gone no really he was just a little 6 pound baby yesterday!!! DH and I am actively back on the TTC train and I think hubby is getting more excited than I am. I ovulated today and have had a rough evening and he says "so we need to do it like rabbits". Lol. Obviously I don't want to be touched right now so it will have to wait until tomorrow.
What have a missed. Anyone have a baby while I was MIA, anyone else get a BFP? Hope everyone is doing good!!

[littlelion]

I gave up on nap time today after the first hr. Too much time wasted and I get frustrated and hate how mad I get at him. So, of course, when we went out with dh to run errands this evening, Leo kept falling asleep. Yet when we got home and I took him straight to bed it still took an hr to get him down. Ugh.

We're doing 9 nights of praying for my grandpa. Usually we all go but I think I'm gonna tell dh to stay home with Leo and do bedtime. I need a break.

[littlelion]

ashlantic happy birthday to your lo! An easel sounds like a lot of fun.
babyw15 best of luck ttc!

[sgio7485]

Have to reschedule Leo's birthday party this weekend. I can't risk getting people sick. Thanks littlelion I hope it spares leo too- this bug is awful!

LO is 2 today! I can't believe it! Where has the time gone?!

[BabyStandish]

raven happy birthday to your LO! You're making me want to go to Target now

[BabyStandish]

DS thought it would be fun to wake up at 2am last night and stay up til 6......not cool man. He then slept from 6-9 and I was able to sleep then too. But boy, that was rough. Need all the coffee this morning.

[nemomof2]

ashlantic the ice finally passed through, thank God! These kids are driving me up the wall, they need to see something besides our house! I think we might go to the library or something like that today and I need to get all of the ingredients for M's cake, his birthday is on Thursday.

[nemomof2]

ashlantic hope your LO is feeling better this morning!
ourcrazynavylife this issue our build in buffet in our kitchen, it stays clean and uncluttered for maybe 2 days.
littlelion hope you get some rest and a much needed break.

[nemomof2]

sgio7485 ugh sorry momma, take care of yourself
raven happy birthday to your little girl have a fun day!
BabyStandish glad you got some rest but sorry it was such a rough morning for you.

[ourcrazynavylife]

raven happy birthday to your DD !!

[ourcrazynavylife]

I'm pretty sure my child has an addiction to cheese. Every time we open the fridge she comes running over and has a friggin freak out if she doesn't get any.
I think she would eat it all day if I let her.
Cheese is not a food group kid.

Wait. Wait. Cheese isn't a food group?!?!

[ourcrazynavylife]

Hahaha raven I knew someone would say that :-P

[ourcrazynavylife]

I just found the culprit of some of her craziness. She just let me get a really good look in her mouth. Her top right 2 year molar is halfway through.

Poor thing! These 2 year molars are a beast. Lo's bottom right one has a pretty big bump but it hasn't broken through yet. I wonder if that was the cause of his fever?
Hope the rest of hers pops through quickly!

[ashlantic]

Lo woke up fever free, but it's been slowly creeping back up. I wouldn't be surprised if he woke up from nap with a temp again.

We had an ice storm come through last night and lo is still not feeling great so we've been taking it easy. Dot markers + the new easel kept him entertained for a really long time this morning. We watched a movie and snuggled too. He wolfed down a pretty good lunch, so at least his appetite is returning.

babyw15 good luck TTC!
littlelion hope nap time was better for you today!
sgio7485 noooo. Hope it passes quickly for you and somehow manages to skip Leo. Sorry you had to reschedule his party.
raven happy birthday to your lo! Have fun at Target.
BabyStandish yikes, that sounds awful. I hope you can sneak a nap in sometime today.
nemomof2 are you making his cake from scratch?

[nemomof2]

ourcrazynavylife cheese is definitely a food group.
ashlantic I will cheat and make a boxed cake mix but I will make the buttercream from scratch.
