Oh Hey Monday!

[periwinkledaydreams]

I don't know if I've ever once in the last 2+ years been the one of start the daily thread! I am... not a morning person .

Works closed but daycare is open.. I'm taking my first official ME day! Starting off solo shopping at Target, then some groceries, most likely followed by Netflix and chill with myself lol. Possibly booking myself a massage for the afternoon if I find a place thats open and has openings.. FX!

[periwinkledaydreams]

Kristykristyleelee thx! I had to put it out there so I hold myself to actually doing it. Crazy how you can have to force yourself to do nice things for yourself!

[jillywilly]

Enjoy your me day, periwinkledaydreams! I love when those roll around!

I'm at work, but we had such a lovely weekend, I'm still in a good mood. I've got a giant pile of things to get done on my desk, and hopefully the motivation to get through it once I finish this yogurt.

Enjoy your day periwinkledaydreams!

We're headed home from the surgery center; E got ear tubes this morning. Everything went well and I'm hoping for some cuddles and maybe a long nap!

Good morning. Heading to the grocery store this morning.

A pile of snow just slid off our roof with a loud crash and tore off our front rain gutters so we need to figure that situation out.

[musicfrk2002]

I just have to make it through 5 more days of work, then I'll be on vacation. I should also find out this week if I will be offered a position closer to home. It has some pros and cons, but right now the pros definitely outweigh the cons.

Have fun periwinkledaydreams!

Kristykristyleelee that will be so nice for you guys when it's all done I'm sure!

tjanca22 glad it went well and hope it helps!

It's currently really foggy and we're just chillin inside right now. I might go do my workout right away so if it clears up this afternoon we can go out for a nice walk or something.

L has started recognizing and correctly identifying the colour purple lately! Sometimes she'll bring us a purple object on her own and announce "poipo!" And today she told me her shirt was. I just think it's really cool!

ETA oh no @poppyc8 I hope it's not a bad fix!

It's my favorite kind of Monday-the kind with no work!
I've mostly cleaned up the craft room. It's our dumping grounds and has been a hot mess since November.
I think we'll make a run to drop off more at Goodwill today, we need to stop by my mom's to let her & my sister's dogs out, and stop by the grocery store to get our favorite salsa and guacamole for THE tacos tonight. I hope to mop during nap and then get to Zumba tonight. Should be a nice and mostly relaxing day.

In case anyone hasn't noticed, Carter's is having a sale today. I got O a bunch of spring and summer wear since nothing from last year will possibly fit.

[dogmama22]

jessila we hit up the Carters sale yesterday. Stocked up on a bunch of 2T and 3T stuff from the clearance rack. Can't beat the extra 40% off

[pghtruelove]

Have a great day periwinkledaydreams!!

[musicfrk2002]

I'm going to have to check out the Carters sale since we have far fewer 3T pajamas than I thought, and some of the 2T are starting to look like halter tops.

My stepdad is off work today, so he just picked up J and will take him to daycare in a little bit, so instead of rushing out the door right now I have about an extra 30-40 minutes to finish a few things around here.

These are my favorite kind of days!

Both are closed here, so we're all together. I think we're going to a museum, but we haven't figured out which one yet. And there's baseball practice this afternoon.

Today's the anniversary of my dad's death, so we got together with my mom and brother yesterday. She's heading to the cemetery today, but wanted to go alone, so I'll probably check in with her a couple times today too.

Good morning!

Kids slept well lastnight and were still sleeping when I left for work this morning.

Busy day since everyone is off work, they want to get their feet checked out apparently.

[alayne926]

periwinkledaydreams, enjoy your day, you deserve it!

[billyhorrible]

Oh and in terms of sales, I actually prefer the Crazy 8 to Carter's sale. Everything is on sale, additional 15% off, and free shipping.

[mrsmonogrammed]

Enjoying a beautiful sunny day with my girl:) I'm helping with a newborn triplet photo session in a little bit and then DD and I are headed to the mall and Target. My four day weekend had been top notch so far!

[periwinkledaydreams]

Soo apparently Ive been trying on clothes for 3 hours LOL! I guess I let myself lose track of time which is a luxury I have sorely missed!

Hey ladies! Question. When I got pregnant with DS1 I remember loving that website Lucie's List to help me get my registry going. I want to direct a cousin of mine to a similar site, but one that has a more "professional" (?) style? I went over to LL and after reading the first few pages, I just don't feel like it's a good tone for her. Does anyone know of any other good options?

For friends/family I have a running list saved in my email that I email to them of my must haves. It's not as fancy obviously as coming from a website but it's still useful.

DC was closed today for staff training so I took DD to the spin studio childcare. I was fully prepared to be pulled out of class because she couldn't deal but she survived! I'm so happy!

We then went on a date to Starbucks and now it's nap time for both of us. More errands and probably stopping at the playground at some point to soak up some sun.

I scheduled an evening spin session in case I couldn't finish this morning. Just dawned on me that I forgot to cancel so I guess I'll be doing a double today. My legs are already grumpy about it.

That's awesome. Our gym daycare has been hit or miss. The first few times she loved it. The last time they had to find me in the gym because she was hysterical

[Bluedaisy]

Had a home day for everyone but the dog today. Washing floors with a toddler feels rather futile. Hoping to hem eight pairs of pants tonight.

[Bluedaisy]

Well so much for that idea...totally killed my sewing machine.

So our foray into the toddler bed has been successful so far! Last night's bed time was a bit tough (there was a bit of puking because crying so hard about being made to lay in his bed while awake, even with me snuggling), but still so much quicker than usual.

Tonight, V was asleep within 5 minutes! That has NEVER happened ever before in the history of his life. He'll still wake up overnight, but one battle at a time.

I'm so excited for you! FX it continues and gets even better!!
