H got her haircut...and it ended up being just a trim. You can't really tell the difference, but hopefully it will tangle less. She sat like a champ she followed directions so we got cupcakes after.
If there is wifi available it will automatically choose that since it's free. When there is no wifi available then it automatically switches to data (because it's always on). Sometimes my wifi at home is a bad signal so I switch it off and use data. But if you leave your house and you're driving down the road it's using data.

Hi from from flagstaff! We got up here around 11 and went "sledding"... and by sledding I mean we pulled off on the side of The road, stomped around in shin high snow for ten minutes, took two pathetic runs on the sled and my kids started complaining about the cold/wet/everything. So then we went to a brewery for lunch. After listening much we took the kids to the pound up here. It's were we got our first pup from and it's really clean and friendly and you can take the dogs out to play in the yard and go in and cuddle the cats. We barely left without a new family member. Now we're just hanging in the hotel and dh is going out to get us dinner. We needed this break and I'm so glad we Decided to do this.
@peachsmama, hope he feels better! Don't beat yourself up!
I'm just laying here trying to get L to fall asleep. We've been trying to get L and D to share a room to get D's room ready for baby. D is a great sleeper and has done great with the transition. L, however, basically shares a room/bed with us instead! Ugh!!

Good luck with that. I wish I had suggestions. Maybe a wake up clock? Special stuffed animal to sleep with?
Thanks! He has a special stuffed animal. Might need to try the wake up clock, but I don't have high hopes. He is just so clingy and a bit anxious. And doesn't get tired many nights. We do melatonin occasionally, but I hate to use it too often. We need to be stricter with him about it. It's just hard when everyone's exhausted!
Took X to the pedi because this cough just will not go away. He's not eating enough, either. They said there's not much we can do (which I figured unless it was bronchitis), but said we could try Singulair. So we're giving that a shot.
Busy day here! Yesterday morning while making J pancakes I decided I really wanted to go to the bridal shower in NJ..45 min later N and I were en route and we made it, only a little late! It's comical how much easier things are with a second kid, I never could have pulled this off with J. She slept the whole 3 hours and everyone was shocked to see us, and thrilled to meet N. Hoping to get a walk in and more visiting before hitting the road at lunchtime. Have a good day!
Morning! Yesterday was busy but good. I squeezed in a quick backyard outing with Col, who waited until 5pm to decide he wanted to play in the snow. I also did our taxes and I need to fix my state withholding because we got so much back. Whoops. Part of it was me making less because of my mat leave but I also we DID have ourselves a new tax deduction in 2016.
Today we need to get to the grocery store before the storm gets too bad. They keep pushing out the start time, so we might just get lucky. Hopefully that doesn't mean that we wake up tomorrow with it still going!

Morning! MH's diaper party got wild last night and he spent the night at a friend's house. That's fine, but he forgot to text me so I was up for 2 hours MOTN worrying when I couldn't get ahold of him.
And the snow has started. We are totally getting snowed in and I'm going to have to tactfully suggest that DH go hide in our room because he is too grumpy to take!!

I think I'm going to recruit my sister to go with me abd C to a trampoline type place that has toddler hours today. Then we will get drinks after, obviously.
lfigge yikes, those wake-up times would kill me. I hope tonight is better! Glad you had a nice day with your friend and the girls.
lahdeedah88 I also had some maternity jeans from Loft that were comfy and I think they're doing 40% right now, if nothing worked from Gap.
Morning! We'll head home today but it was a nice weekend. C was up every other hour coughing last night; luckily she always went back to sleep easily afterwards but I'm dragging a bit.
Morning. I'm at hockey playoffs for DS1. Game hasn't even started and we have made 2 trips to the snack stand. It's sleeting outside. If it clears up, I need to grocery shop and buy DD some clothes. All of the sudden her pants are all too short. We have friends coming for dinner if the weather is ok.
Grocery shopping is done and the snow is really coming down. Colin's Valentine's are ready - though nothing fancy AT ALL - and our only real to-do is to sit Chase in his new car seats to adjust them before getting them in the cars. Which means I will be out in the snow with Colin soon, while DH stays dry and warm with Chase. How does it always work out like this? Haha.
Morning! I had a rough evening yesterday. DH and I had a stupid fight after dinner, then he took H to his friend's house so her and his daughter could play. S was ready to go to bed early so I thought I'd get some alone time to watch Netflix and veg. Except S woke up after an hour and, despite multiple attempts to lay her down when I thought she was asleep, wouldn't go back to sleep unless I was holding her or laying next to her. Really frustrating. This morning H had been so naughty, not listening, throwing things and hitting S. DH went to church but should be home soon and then I'm ditching everyone to go paint in the basement.
klongoria11 how was 50 shades darker? Did you give us a review already and did I miss it?
Sadly, not good. I'm not a fan of movies from books and they just took so much out that you miss a lot of the underlying story. It's basically just a movie of sex scenes. They took out 2 whole characters this time around. Ugh.
Guise my kids 'currency' is actually currency. He has been so bad lately with sass that I told him I was counting the amount of times and each time would be a piece of money. Well, today 14 pieces if money came out of his piggybank, he is devastated. #meanmom
It better work, I don't want all his change in my wallet.
Bradley loves money and adding to his piggybank. Giving him change was one of the things that finally inspired him to use the potty for #2. He knew all the coins by name by 2.5. I feel like I'm probably raising Scrooge McDuck but we'll hold out hope for Warren Buffet instead.
