dreemkin how’s your aunt?

Our town’s summer festival is this weekend. Tonight is a battle of the bands downtown, so we’ll probably go there when DH gets off work and have food truck food for supper. Of course the heat index is supposed to reach at least 105 today; hoping for slightly better tomorrow for the parade & such.

Transferred to a different hospital today. Haven't heard any update yet. Thanks for asking!

Who still uses a monitor in their 4yo rooms? We have just a sound one still but wanted to see on here... do I still need it?

We have a sound one. But my bedroom is on the first floor & G’s is on the second. He loves knowing he can call over the monitor & we’ll hear right away, and we can talk back over it. We just use it as a walkie talkie.

We still have a nest cam in his room but never look at it.

dreemkin We had a sound one in his room till A was one and we were gifted a cam one for both rooms. We set it up but just for sound really, but it came in useful when we turned over V's new bed (ikea kura) a few months ago. So yes, we still have one, but its usage is intermittent.

Today we celebrated V's filling up his nighttime dry chart by taking him to a fun center. Both boys had a good time, and listened really well. As opposed to breakfast with my family the other day, where they were acting like heathens.

dreemkin hope your aunt is doing well.

aggiebug hope S is feeling better.

I am in Vegas celebrating my brother's 40th and H is at home with the kiddos. S is better, C started getting sick but he doesn't spike high fevers like she does so he is pretty ok. Of course I am getting sick. Blaah. No sleep, is terrible for colds. We did get to see Cirque du Solei last night so that was fun.

[lilyelayne]

Ugh sorry aggiebug hope you get a mild version.

J is cutting three more teeth & had trouble sleeping last night. Of course it’s 920 now and he’s still snoozing. DH & G are at the festival parade. When J wakes, we’ll go to town to join them.

We went to our first zoo summer nights! It was an Elton John cover band. It was good. Didn't love the laser show this year but that's okay. It was perfect weather out!

aggiebug take all the meds!! Have fun in Vegas. Your family does birthdays big..!

[dreemkin]

Poor j lilyelayne. Hope he sleeps better tonight!

[kartish]

Hope you are feeling better aggiebug and can enjoy your trip!

Poor J cutting teeth is so rough, hopefully he slept better last night lilyelayne.

We walked over tho the farmer's market yesterday morning. It was a nice day, beautiful weather, and the market was fun. There wasn't a lot of produce yet, but V bought himself a package of cherry tomatoes which he devoured before we got home.

Today is work, and we have a friend's 11 yearold son coming over to do some yard work for spending money.

Haha my brother does.. it's his 40th his wife they did a big thing for her 30th so he said this was his decade. My sister and I don't 😄.

I worked out this morning. I tried the elliptical but my knee didn't seem to like it so I think I'll stick to my usual routine of treadmill and bike. I am like an old lady with a bad knee and I'm to old (for this sh*t) to risk injuring it.

We went to noon mass and then to lunch. It was nice. Then DH and I went through the girls' closets and put away too small clothes, seasonal, and such. This gets tedious juggling two girls and hand me downs. Plus hand me downs from a cousin added in. FWP
