I have like 50 things that I should be doing but instead I'm looking up photographers again. Why is it so hard to find someone who just does digitals and isn't expensive as hell? There was one that a couple of friends used that was $80 for a session and digitals, but she's sooo busy and her next session is at the end of May at a park 45 minutes away.

Hey we were on a reaaaaal tight budget for our wedding and found a photographer who was just starting out and it saved us a boat load of money. Granted it wasn't like "dayum those are good" quality but like "better than my sister" quality. It was sufficient. Perhaps if you're willing to go that route you can check Craigslist and/or post on your local Moms page on Facebook (someone might have a college student or know of one who is pursuing that). Just a few ideas!! I agree, MH ended up doing their newborn photos bc so expensive and with two they almost double the price AND require you to buy prints. NO just give me the file bro.
danib and aggiebug you guys deserve that good nights sleep, I'm so happy to hear that. I agree, even if it doesn't continue sometimes that one night break is enough to recharge and change your whole mental attitude.
waitwhat I see you guys with that nice weather... Send some here? I can't remember the last time I saw the sun but it feels like
kleigh you're not *that* far from me. I thought our weather was pretty comparable, no?
And I love that titanic gif. It's so appropriate in a number of situations. Like the last time I shaved my legs.
That gif is neck and neck with the Napoleon Dynamite for appropriateness in every situation. I need to shave my legs too 😫 But I'm too lazy to dig out a new razor. Seriously that's my excuse. Well we might see a peak of sun today... Of course I'll be in cube city. Unless she shows her face on my walk over to lunch.

Your NB pictures did turn out cute! We actually have a nice camera that H could probably get good photos with, but I'd also like to get a couple family shots. I just submitted a quote request on Thumbtack so I'll see what I get. The one girl that responded so far was.. not great. So we'll see. I would just go to JC Penney but I don't really want prints.

I'm always surprised at how different the weather is between here and there. It's only supposed to hit 71 here today but yesterday was almost 80. Maybe you're just getting our weather a day later. That would make sense lol. But my Outlook had Washington DC as the default weather for some reason and it was in the 80s all week. It doesn't seem THAT far that it should be so different.

Sometimes I feel like I still have no idea what I'm doing and when things go right it's just because I got lucky. And I don't see this changing anytime soon.

Sorry I'm trying to get all my words in before boss baby tells me my screen time is over. We're headed to the beach around lunch time for our annual Maryland blue crab lunch for all the offices. I'm just going to get snow crab legs or something similar. I'm terrible at getting the meat out of the little ones and end up starving. I hope M is good and I find a way to get everyone to leave her alone.

All I tell myself is "it has to change at some point right?!" I mean... teenagers love sleep, right? Just another 13 years? Let the countdown begin.

I'm on kid #2 and I still have no idea WTF I'm doing 99% of the time.

Uuughh I have to meet with my boss in 15 minutes to talk about goals and development plan. I hate this time of the year. I got to skip part of it while I was on leave but now I have to do everything at once. I never know if I should tell him that this job is boring and I want to do something else or if I should just keep my mouth shut and carry on.
Yup sophiegrace. All the time. It does get better in some ways. Not so much in others. With Lillian, we had a great period of about a year where she just went to sleep at 8:30 and slept all night. Then she learned to climb out of the crib and now it's a mess again. And all the other stuff? Also just playing it by ear. It's strange realizing my parents were just as clueless.
It's getting hot again here. Yesterday was 91. Ugh. I hate summers. Too hot!! We are quickly approaching the time of year where we either are at the pool/splash pad or inside.
We've got a play date/craft this morning. My goals today are to get the bedrooms and playroom cleaned up and do the dishes. We'll see how much the littles let me get done this afternoon before I have to get dh. He's going to take them, though, so I know I'll be able to get it done.
Oh and my latest celibate period ended last night. Woohoo.

What craft are you working on?
Caterpillars out of baby food/applesauce pouch tops.

I swear talking my boss is so frustrating. He straight up asked if rotation into another position was something I'm interested in and I told him yes. So that was fine. But then he brought up some other training/certification that he just had to mention to everyone because it's in the goals of upper management. It actually is something that sounded interesting so I kept trying to ask him questions about it and he kept talking over me. Then at the end he asks if I have any questions but I'm too annoyed to bring them up again. He's really not a bad boss but the man needs to learn how to shut up once in a while and listen.

If anyone needs to get away from the heat just hop a plane to Seattle. It's not supposed to get above 55 for like, ever, apparently.
Yeah i'm already annoyed. It's not going to be hot enough to turn on the A/C so my house is like 75. And I've got such a flabby stomach so dresses don't really compliment that and shorts don't flatter my thighs. So. I really don't know how to dress today. And my mom wants to go out in public. So I have to wear something.
I love summer weather but I hate summer clothes. I pretty much live in capris and loose fitting t-shirts. I'm always thankful for fall when I can put my jeans and hoodies back on.
