Marvelous monday

[trtlcrzy]

Not actually marvelous for me

[trtlcrzy]

Morning! I woke up with a stomach bug and have spent a large majority of the morning in the bathroom. So we will be spending the day at home and I'll be on a count down until DH is home.

Oh, no! I hope you're feeling better soon trtlcrzy.

Day one of my three day work week. I'm ready to kick ass and take names and then get the hell out of here. I seriously cannot wait for two full days of just me and DH doing whatever we want with no one else to demand our attention.

Oh no trtlcrzy I hope you feel better soon!

I'm heading in to work. We finally had a rain-free weekend and spent a ton of time outdoors, V loved every minute. Come on summer, I'm ready for you!!

Boo bug trtlcrzy I hope it goes away quickly!!
I just did my third spin class and felt slightly less like dying and vomiting and passing out than last week, so I'll take it as a win. Also, both kids happily walked into childcare so that was huge. Although the weird part of me is sad that Lu isn't a mad when I'm leaving her there... But she's SO HAPPY when I pick her up so that's a win too

V's always been a huge fan of daycare and kids in general, she vastly prefers being in the company of other kids than hanging out with me :-( Still makes me a little sad but at least I don't feel guilty about her being in daycare!

That's great that she likes childcare. You get a break and some exercise, she gets to play with kids. Win win

Thanks ladies I know it's totally illogical, and I am super lucky she loves it. C DID NOT when he was a baby so I cancelled our membership. I bring Lu 3 days a week (twice for spin and once during C's swim class) so I'm glad she likes it!

trtlcrzy, parenting with a stomach bug sounds awful. I hope it passes quickly and stays away from the girls!

trtlcrzy oh no, that sounds miserable. Hopefully time goes fast so your H will be home to give you some help or relief.

leahks77 that's so good that your kids are enjoying the child care! Makes it that much easier for you to do something for yourself. I get the sad feeling though. It's funny how we want our kids to be ok while we're gone, but it's also nice to see them whine for us lol.

We're lazy over here today. Kids both seemed lazy and tired this morning. We took a walk, hopefully we can get back on our regular routine with that now that temps are tolerable. We used to take walks in the middle of our morning each day we're home.

I need to order water boots for DS today. Swamp yard, and still sooo much snow. I'm still teetering on boots for DD. I know they'll get used such a short time and her feet are still so small so my options are limited but I want her to be able to wander the yard once the snow goes down.

I'm headed home after a super busy day. These days work is just flying by, which is kinda great. My Magoo was so happy to go to daycare this morning, he was all happy to see his teacher it was cute.
I'm starving, thank god there's a lasagna in the oven (yay for meal planning!)

[trtlcrzy]

I accidentally clipped S's toenail too short. It started to bleed. She just let out a quick yelp and that was it. I still feel bad

[eyelashedviper]

trtlcrzy She won't even remember it but it still makes us feel awful. Every time I accidentally bump of scratch my kids I feel so guilty.

My step-sister won over $17,000 on a radio contest this morning. How awesome is that? The host asked her "how many kids did you say you had?" When she replied 4 his response was "so the money's basically spent already, right?" Ha

I tried a new recipe for dinner tonight: Sweet potato and Turkey meatballs. I really enjoyed the taste but the sweet potato shreds did not get totally soft so the texture bothered me. :-(
