M coughed in her sleep from 3-5am. At 5 I finally got her up and turned on her humidifier, did her inhaler, gave her honey and water. Something worked and I was able to sleep another hour. Which means I got 4 broken hours. Woo.

I'm sorry that M is still sick robotpcr I slept from a little after 10-4am. Then MHs alarm went off at 4:15. Since I got a solid chunk of sleep I actually don't feel too bad. G and I had pancakes for breakfast. I put a pulled pork in the crock pot and now she is playing with her little people. I think we will go to baby time at the library. Thankfully they are not picky about age. It says up to 18mo but plenty of other caregivers bring kids that are older than that. We are also going to go to lunch with MH. Today will be a good day.

Thanks. DH just kept telling me to go back to sleep since she was sleeping through her coughs but yeah, no.

I don't think I could sleep through coughing either. But as we know from experience, I don't sleep through anything. That is why the baby monitor has been turned all the way down the last two nights. I would not turn it down if G was sick though.
I'd keep her home all day but no fever and I have a big project going on and DH has an important meeting this morning. He's going to do it remotely though so the sitter can drop M off to him at lunch time. Best we can do
Solidarity robotpcr... N has been sick for 2 weeks now with this head cold and a cough. We've been using the humidifier every night and we were doing baby Vicks, but switched to the Zarbee's cough and mucous stuff which seems to be helping tremendously! I'm soooo ready for this to go away

Hi ladies! I made it through one round in the haiku battle last night and then the next round slayed me! It was really fun though. I love writing haikus!

Today is DH's and I's 4 year meeting anniversary! We met four years ago. He invited me to Cincinnati where he lived at the time and we went to IHOP for breakfast and then the art museum. So-- that is what we are doing today too! Except in Columbus. I work until 11am (half day) then it's on.

Same A has has a cough for forever, Only when she sleeps or gets worked up, the Zarbee's works, but I just wish it wold go away!!!
Also! Speaking of being tired from broken sleep, has anyone ever used caffeine pills?
I'm not a coffee or tea drinker. I drink one Diet Coke every morning but I know how awful it is for me. I need some sort of caffeine in the morning most days because our sleep is so unpredictable!
My husband uses caffeine pills before a workout. They work!

bwisco123, Bai cocofusions drinks always wake me up. It has the same amount of caffeine as a cup of green tea. I like the coconut and the pineapple ones the best.

Where do you find these magical drinks?!
Any grocery store. Usually target has them by coconut water and sparkling water. It's an antioxidant drink, not necessarily a caffeine drink, but it has caffeine in it and doesn't taste like coffee or tea, imo.
Hoping to have a relaxed but productive day. Yesterday was busy with appointments so I dont plan on doing too much, but Id like to at least get my kitchen back in order and get some more work done on these cushion covers for my rocking chair.

G fell asleep in the car on the way home from dropping MH off at work. I thought I did a successful transfer. The noises coming from her room suggest otherwise.
Just got my final W2. Time to file taxes. Give me alllllll the money! (This is what is great about having three dependents) 😉
I have all of my w2s. We are waiting on MHs. We go see my accountant on the 4th to file. I am so excited because we usually get our refund pretty quickly.

She is singing in her crib. I am giving it 15 more minutes and I will take her out of there. I cannot believe I am going to be dealing with her on only a 10 minute car nap for the rest of the day.
