wedding, enjoy Target! Sunny41 it's always hard when they're upset; B has had a couple clingy days in the last couple months, it's usually on days when there's a substitute or another child is acting up and causing a disruption. I also remember a couple of B's classmates last year going through phases with tears at drop-off. Hopefully this will be short-lived for y'all!
B has a speech check-in at 10, need to get up and motivated for that. We had planned to go to my parents' and make Valentines cookies with my mom, but I think we gave her the plague so not sure if she'll be feeling up to it. I need to get them Valentines and hit the grocery store, as well.
Hope you all had a good weekend. I'm sitting down watching grey's while both kids are napping.
Our contractor is coming by this afternoon to talk over the plans, it's probably more expensive (and more than we can afford) so I'm nervous and excited at the same time.
Dh had a craving for chicken soup, so I made a nice big pan.
Have a good day girls!
Hope the contractor meeting goes well! We had 2 out last week re. An outdoor patio. It's fun to see what they come up with design-wise, but not price-wise. 😝
Morning! Chase was up quite a bit last night, so I'm tired. His ears should be better by now and for once, he doesn't have a cold or a cough. So of course his bottom gums are horribly swollen. We are considering another attempt at CIO but it seems like he always maybe has an excuse? So we may just be reinforcing bad behavior. I hate baby sleep! And he's not even a baby for much longer. DNW.
In other news, I'm back in the office and feeling unmotivated. So far I paid a medical bill, signed Colin up for the next round of swim lessons, registered for a race, and updated my state withholding. To be fair, I've got a 10am call so I don't want to really get into anything beforehand, plus most of my recons are on hold on my end. But I still guilty...

Monday morning off to an annoying start. My glucose test was scheduled for 8:30 a.m., and when I get there they tell me they are out of the sugary drink. So I have to reschedule. Which is not only annoying because I had already had to reschedule for other reasons, but because this is the second time this place has messed stuff up with my appointment. When I did my blood work they messed up the labeling and I had to go back (with L in tow) for more to be drawn. On top of that I may have more interviews this week and since L is only in DC 3 days a week, scheduling is already hard.
I may just take him with me on one of his off days and go to another location.
Morning. We are going to story time at the library shortly. My goal for today is to keep H moving so her attitude improves. I'm so over the whining and fit throwing. It's supposed to be in the high 40s today so we will probably just play outside in the driveway after nap.
snoopmommymom I'm sorry. I have days I feel like that too. I have found that having a part time job helps my mentality. I hope you can figure something out that works for everyone to be happy.
Drove down to the inlaws this weekend and got to snuggle my new niece and nephew. They are 7 weeks old, and 3 weeks away from their due date, and they are doing AMAZING! They are both over 5 pounds and are starting to learn to eat on their own. It was so nice to meet them. They are hoping to bring them home by the end of the month.
The boys both did so well on the road trip (it's about a 4 hour drive). S was mostly just excited to eat at the rest stop. Toddlers are funny.
tallblonde , I saw you were at a shower in Jersey, funny, I was down in MD for mine, we switched places Hope your trip all went well! and you made it out of the area before the sleet and freezing rain. What area of Jersey were you in?

Hi all!
Busy morning. My doctor's office was full this morning and I waited a lot longer than previous appointments. Of course it's that way when I have MH and M in tow. M was pretty tame and patient for most of it, so I can't complain. Baby boy's (😁😊) A/S went well so overall a good appointment. I grabbed lunch and hit the grocery store after. I'm home now to start dinner and pick up a bit before I head in to work. I wish I had time for a nap too, because I'm tired after little sleep last night.

My mom dropped my niece off yesterday and I have her til tomorrow, so it's a bit chaotic around here!
I need to squeeze in a workout cause I have a feeling I'll be drinking and/or super tired by the time MH comes home so I doubt I'll make it to my class.

Thanks ladies! He smiles every time we say baby brother so I guess that means he's happy. I don't think he cared either way. I ordered a big brother book last week so we will definitely be talking him up in the coming months.

tgrimes1980 he's doing good. They took the catheter out yesterday and stopped the dieretics. They are waiting for his kidneys to level out before they put the dye in for the angiogram. I head home tomorrow morning and I feel much more comfortable doing so now that I see he is improving each day.
MH & M got in the hot tub last night at my inlaws' house. M kept getting out to play with the water hose & was squirting everyone so MH went to the side of the house to turn the water off. He turned the valve & the pipe split. Water was squirting over the fence into the neighbor's yard.
They had to shut the water off to the house, make a trip to Home Depot & replace a bunch of stuff.
Is this the longest you've ever been away from C klongoria11? You must be missing her so much.
Yes, the most I had been away from her previously was just one night. This has been pretty hard. Especially since the very first day I was gone she got injured. Her face is healing and doesn't seem to be bothering here, but I wish I had been there.
DH emailed to let me know that our power has been out for hours now. It's being looked at but we have no ETA. And apparently we've got old gas that needs to be drained from our generator, not to mention we'd need new gas if we need to use it. FX that this gets fixed soon. The house is apparently already noticeably cold. YAY.

Glad to hear your dad is improving day by day klongoria11. I'm sorry it's been hard to be away from your girl. Have you at least been able to get some good sleep at night?
