Hello April!!!

[titania]

So stop posting those randoms in March!

[titania]

Speaking of April... I have become slightly obsessed with April the Giraffe. I am so excited for her to have her baby!

I feel so bad for the poor thing. I feel like I relate so hard. 😂

We're hitting separation anxiety nice and hard, right in time for the introduction of a nanny. I'm stressed to be going back to work. I've got a sensitive soul here... she red-faced cried for one and a half hours while I was at the dentist. Bedtime has become a two hour ordeal that only I'm allowed to do.

Rough.

Rant over.

Ds2 is sick again. Seriously this kid has a fever at least once a month. Tylenol is a godsend. Praying he feels better tomorrow since I have a couple of major things happening at work and supposed to speak to DS1s class for career day and DH will be out of town. Ugh

I'm sorry . When do you go back? Hopefully she will slowly get acclimated to the nanny when you leaving becomes part of the routine. I hope the separation anxiety at bedtime starts to pass. That is so rough.

Thanks! I go back in a week and a half. I actually got a new job, so I'm going back a month and a bit earlier than expected. It's been a busy two weeks finding a nanny to get us through the gap until a daycare space becomes available.

I'm just trying to remember to manage my own anxiety about the transition so I can model to her that everything is OK. I'm glad we'll get a few days of transition, hopefully that helps.

Boo, sorry all the business is happening at the same time as the sickness. Sending get well vibes.

Congrats on the new job! That sounds like a stressful few weeks! As hard as it probably is to manage your own anxiety about starting in a new environment, I'm sure that will help her! Hopefully your transition days will help too. Good luck!!!

Have fun! Hopefully the rain holds off.

We'll be missing our town's egg hunt tomorrow because of my sister's bridal shower.

June 17, so 3 days before their birthday, and YES!! They are going to be freaking precious coming down the aisle in a wagon. I already have their outfits (other than shoes), I just need to order G suspenders and a bow tie. I should actually do that now!

Going to a egg hunt at my friends house tomorrow- I just realized I probably should bring extra eggs to contribute(?) not sure if that's a thing that parents do???

Can you ask? If I were hosting an egg hunt I would not expect byoe.

April had her baby this morning! Yay! I was glued to the screen giving her encouragement. 😉What an amazing thing to watch. Giraffe babies are so cute!!!!

Yeah we're having a small egg hunt tomorrow and I don't expect them to bring anything. We already went overboard

[GOmamab15]

I'm looking forward to tomorrow!

[packerfan4life]

Me too GOmamab15!

[ArgyleEnigma]

I need to buy eggs...

[ArgyleEnigma]

Target was closed and I failed to get eggs, which is a bummer. I even had a basket, but it stayed empty this year. I think I'll get 50% off eggs tomorrow and do a little hunt anyway.

Cling-bot the baby is really challenging us this week. But he's so cute it kinda makes up for it. He's starting to walk with his walker so I think that there's some leap happening. Hopefully it's that & not more teeth! I'm not ready for molars.
