And it's Friday

[zengal]

Baby is cracking me up this morning! She does this head rocking that reminds me of a bobble-head doll. And she's got the makings of a crawl, just hasn't set herself into motion yet. I'm feeling the uh-oh coming.

H has the weekend off again!!! He hasn't had two weekends off in a row in 6 months. I am liking this.

I'm so. dead. tired. I should go nap while the baby is napping... but then who is going to clean my bathroom and write to my grandma?

Nap always beats cleaning! Glad your H gets to celebrate the holiday weekend with you guys

wildflower810 My baby only naps when being held lately. I don't know how I get anything done!

I saw something on Pinterest that was a sweet picture of a baby sleeping, and the words on top of the picture said, "Sleep when the baby sleeps... Eat when the baby eats... Fold laundry when the baby folds laundry." Haha, I thought it was funny.

Today we have a pool party at my parents' house! LO loves to swim now so that will be fun, and I'm excited to hang out with family.

Welcome to the start of Fireworks weekend.

DHs cousin is doing well with the move. She's not as upset during the process as she has been leading up to it.

They gave us their fridge which means I'm a proud new owner of a 36" French door stainless steal refrigerator. It's going to sit in our garage until DH takes out the half wall next to our current refrigerator, so the new one fits. I'm excited about winning the fight of the wall that I was told at the start of the kitchen update wasn't being removed. DH suggested taking the wall down and I just agreed.

Hopefully everyone enjoys themselves and babies sleep through the fireworks.

We had a ROUGH night last night. Los rash is obviously itchy and she was up every hour starting at midnight. She was super charming when I finally agreed we were up for the day at 6am.

She is obsessed with pulling up on everything. No surface is safe, and thanks to her cold rash whatever she's brewing she's pulling up and rubbing her boogers on all my furniture. After first nap we're going to go to the park and grocery shop for tomorrow's cook out. I also need to take a lot of space from my h. He got frustrated yesterday and instead of productively talking about it he stormed around then when I finally asked what the f his problem was he was flippant and belittling. I know I should tell him how I feel but I'm too tired to deal with it. So, avoidance it is! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[zengal]

MsNicole06 Bonus! A new fridge AND the glory of getting your way!?
Sorry about YH's tantrum, pixie523. I fully support avoidance mode until he wises up. I did the same thing last night!

[MsNicole06]

zengal that's how I'm viewing it. Now I'm doing the die stove dance so my old one will die and the white stove can go. I'll have to live with the microwave, stove, & dishwasher until they die.

pixie523 hopefully YH will chill out and be in a good mood this weekend.

Little miss has found her whiny cry voice. Can't find anything obviously wrong. Just whining.

This. Although 90% of the time she's whining because she's tired, but won't take a nap. I have to find a quiet, secluded place and nurse to sleep if I want her to nap.

Tagging is ridiculous on this mobile site.

Pixie- hope your h stakes the stick out

Msnicole yay for fridge




You guys. THREE MOTHER EFFING NO SHOWS IN A ROW. My first client of the day showed up. The following three have not. Have a wedding in a few minutes. The washing machine broke. We ran out of towels. Dryer took over two hours to dry it's load. Today is a shit show.

[littleapplemom]

jjh1119, Man I would stel your now show appiontments. I need a cut so badly!!
pixie523, Sorry YH is being a DB. Mine has been ok this week so we're due for a blowout...not the poopy kind. It'll probably be tomorrow when he drinks all the beers and I do all the cleans.

Had to drop the mattress on crib the other day, found LO in the morning with his little paws on the rail standing up. Fun stuff. At work today, cleaned my entire desk and now I'm just sitting here doing nothing. Seriously, nothing. They should be letting us go early but until then.....at least I have snacks in my drawer. Cook out at mom's tomorrow. I'm in charge of dessert. Strawberry shorcake is on the menu but I also have a can of blueberry pie filling that I'm not sure what to do with besides making a pie. #firstworldproblems

[pixie523]

Eh, my h is in fine spirits now. He's a good vent then forget. It's me who has the bad attitude now, because I'm a dweller and a stew-er.

jjh1119 no showing is so rude. Maybe it's because I get one cut a year, but I can't understand making a hair appointment then just not...going?

littleapplemom I vote strawberry short cake

So it's okay if I don't feel bad for giving her a bottle and she falls asleep?

[zengal]

jjh1119 why won't your tapatalk work and your clients show up and your machines function as intended? Tonight--->perfection is due! May your baby sleep perfectly and your drinks be numerous.
littleapplemom I laugh (because I relate) at all the beers and all the cleans! Also, blueberries and strawberries makes for a very patriotic dessert show!

[jjh1119]

I'm not sure why tapatalk isn't working.

Finally done with the day. People really disrespect their hairstylists. I have a long list of people I refuse to let them book. One time, I'll let it slide. Two times? Nope. But if you slip in and then do it a third time? No way. If you are in the schedule I will delete it. Sorry. No way. I had a client who was trying to get an appt with me. Made one with someone else and then I could have done it but it was too late.

[wildflower810]

I just don't get being rude and no showing, or being late. I walk in the door at 2:01 for a 2:00 appointment and I'm apologizing like crazy. Even with a baby I manage to get places early and/or on time. I've learned to build in that extra time before getting out the door.

I got M an amber teething necklace. I'm 50/50 on if I think it actually works or if it's a placebo, but they're cute and for $20 I was willing to take my chances. I took it off of him today at naptime and set it on the stool... right next to the teething oil I have. WHEN DID I BECOME SO CRUNCHY? Dang it! I swore I would never be "that" mom.

Now if you excuse me, I have to go stuff my cloth diapers.

[pixie523]

These wine spritzers are a great idea! Until LO wakes up and I hate myself. More wine pleaseeeeeee

[zengal]

wildflower810 I was pretty sure you were crunchy when you had your home water birth....jus sayin
pixie523 you may have all the wine! Your H is there, right?
We're going to sit on our driveway and watch people blow up their money tonight at the block party. Fun fun!

Crud, busted!

The thing is, I don't do the "crunchy" things because I have some sort of huge opinion about how we need to be all natural, no chemicals, etc, etc. I'm not that obnoxious person posting all the anti-gmo memes on fb. I just think about my options for different things and often the ones that make the most sense are the "crunchy" option. Like a homebirth. I hate hospitals, hate needles, dispise narcotics, and like being in control.... so homebirth it was.

I do not eat organic and I love my gluten.

[nerdalert]

So LO's nostril is finally big enough for me to pick her nose with my pinky finger. I totally just did that instead of using the booger sucker today, and that was awesome!

FFFC: I was upstairs with LO on a couch with no tissues or anything within reach. Since I was switching sides to feed her, I didn't want to get up. So I just wiped the booger on my leg and figured I'd throw it away in a tissue when I got up. Nope, definitely forgot all about it and I have no idea where it ended up.
