Gatsby licked his toenail clot off yesterday and started bleeding again. Now we are keeping a sock over it and coning him. It seems to be working. I noticed while cleaning it up again that I think that nail was split to begin with because it is pretty torn up. More so than my clippers (which have a gaurd on them) would have done. Poor buddy.
It is freezing around here lately. Dipping into the single digits. Brrr. Possibly more snow on the way too...ugh.

Trying to get back into the swing of things after the long weekend & house full of guests. I realized this afternoon that tomorrow is bible study today & I had done none of my daily homework, so I just crammed it all in the last hour.
Otherwise just hoping J’s congestion is better cause last night was rough. I think this weekend we’re taking down the crib and rearranging the nursery to put a mattress on the floor. Hoping the full size one we have in the garage will fit.
dreemkin hope Gatsby is out of his cone soon! I hate trimming dog nails. Especially black ones!

A tree fell across our driveway last night. Didn’t notice until DH and I were pulling out of the garage. Fortunately FIL brought over his chainsaw and they made the driveway passable. I ended up taking G to school & missing bible study. So thankful it didn’t fall toward the house; it was a small tree but close to the kitchen!
It's cold here today and we are just chilling at home. Not sure what all we'll do today. I need to get to the post office today, but I don't like taking the boys there.
kartish I hear ya on the post office. That is one errand I will avoid going with the girls at all costs haha. lilyelayne oh no. Glad you were able to get to most of the places you needed to be. I'm so glad it wasn't on your house.
We have terrible conditions here. It was raining all day yesterday but below freezing making it an icy mess. I got stuck in my driveway trying to pull into the garage after picking up Norah. Putting some salt finally worked. I was grateful it was my driveway and not somewhere else. Today is similar weather and I'm nervous about picking up Norah. I might just walk if it's that bad but then we'd be slipping and sliding. Ugh remind me why I live in the Midwest again??
Ah lilyelayne! I am glad it turned out to just be a minor inconvenience.
kartish. Omg the post office. Any time I need to mail a present it's usually a tad late or barely on time because I drag my feet going with the kids. Let's not talk about the time I did self checkout after hours with a huge line behind me and the kids running amok. I need a drink just thinking about that trip 😆
dreemkin. It's like that here too. We stayed home thank goodness. Although kids are making me nuts ha.
Hi I am currently hiding in my room. Waiting for the timer to go off then it's trash bag time. All toys on the floor are gone. I am tired of the constant nagging and fighting so here it goes. I want them to be successful so I was down there but it's just stressful so they have their task so let's see how it goes.
I made it to and from N's school safely by van. A bit slippery and slushy but I didn't get stuck in the driveway! Fwiw, Icy conditions gives me anxiety ever since my bad car accident a while ago. So not liking this weather, thought we were supposed to have a mild winter....

Well I gave them 30 minutes when it could have been done in 10. Caleb did nothing, shocker he is two although he is quite obstinate when I give him guidance and help him too ha, Sarah probably did most of her cleaning between the time the timer went off and I get the trash bag. 🙄. The first time I did this I picked up a lot more though so progress? This is the second time and I am letting them earn these back eventually but it's been a week without some high value Christmas toys.
aggiebug this morning we had to take barbies away from N because she was playing with them instead of getting ready for school. So we have a bunch of half-dressed barbies in a drawer in our bedroom...looks very odd. We've also said we will take away Switch privileges if they don't eat during dinner. That one did it, last night at least.

Lol the image of half naked Barbie's cracks me up.
Preschool and mom's group this morning. So busy morning. I need to make S's birthday cupcakes but I forgot to get butter out to soften. It might be an evening of baking . Hard for me to believe she is 4 tomorrow!
I said something about my 4 year old today. She said no mommy I am still 3. Ha indeed little lady, indeed.
