Hey bitches! I have to work again today, but wanted to say hi and wish everyone a good day!

[angnjon]

We were away the last few days. Tuesday night we took the little nuggets to dinner & the boardwalk, they had a blast. Wednesday we went to a water park & hung out in the splash pool. They were so damn excited & happy. Then we met friends for dinner & the babes were total rock stars even though we hung out 2 hrs passed their bedtime. We lounged around yesterday, had a late breakfast , then came home. It was a very enjoyable few days with my little family!

[Jennifer18131]

DS was sttn (8:30pm-6:30am usually) for a few weeks. The past week he's been fighting hard going to sleep and hasn't been going down until 9:30 or 10. He's waking up around midnight/1am then at 4am. H and I have been relatively consistent with switching off.

This morning, H got the 3:30 turn and DS was having none of it. H came back in the room over 45 minutes later, told me to turn off the monitor and bitched for 30 minutes about how fucking tired he is, he's about to lose his mind, we need to call the doctor to see what we can do about this because it's clearly not normal. I mean DS is almost 9 months for chrissake... Ugh. Eyeroll.

I totally understand that he's tired and losing his mind. I've been there for a year now. But to act like something is wrong and DS should just be sleeping 8pm-8am made me equally amused and angry.

So far I've had two full cups of hot coffee and a bowl of cereal and my kid has been asleep in her crib for over 11 hours.

Please tell me what that feels like. Feel free to be as detailed as possible.

In other news, DS has been playing with his left ear for about a week. We've been watching closely. He's not tugging on it, running fever or showing any signs that it hurts. This morning he started with the barking cough again.

Good thing I have that box of wine...

[jellykat2]

I feel your pain Jennifer18131

Dd has been sick the past couple days. Which has included going from 1 wake up at night to waking up every 2 hours. I really hope that being rocked back to sleep each time doesn't become a habit.

DD has been acting like this for awhile. It's definitely just teething related for her. Hopefully that's all that you're dealing with too!

[darwinfish]

I've been pulling all nighters or near all nighters for work. Give me all the coffee.

someone is running down the hallway and they sound like a horse.

This all sounds great! Plus, you just reminded me that we have a free splash park about 10 minutes away. If it's nice out when I get home from work tomorrow we are so going

I hope so. He popped out one tooth last week and has the one next to it still playing peekaboo.

7 teeth?  We still have 2....  but he's been acting like a goon so maybe that means teeth are imminent.  Also, apparently I'm gonna be here today instead of working.  I'm gonna pay for this.

Right, 7?!  What's funny is his first two were a thousand times worse than these 5.  He barely even blinks over them now - like I didn't know he was working on #7 until I saw it had already popped through his gum.

I highly recommend it! Drew was so exhausted he slept in the stroller amongst all the chaos & I even transferred him to his car seat without waking him. He then continued to sleep for another hour & 15 minutes. Alex crashed in the car & slept till I had to wake her to get ready for dinner. Epic naps will ensue, enjoy!

[staryb]

Jennifer18131, this is on my fridge...right next to my wine cooler. Give me all the box wine!

Us, too, with it being teething. FX it gets better soon!

[kellrr]

Good morning lads!
I'm mustering the energy to get dressed and go run. We need to work in breaking DS from co-sleeping because he tosses and turns all night and he's been waking up earlier this week, which makes me sad.
So far this morning, I've taken cat toys away from DS 9 times, and one nickel that DH left on the living room floor after I told him to pick it up. That run sounds like the perfect break from DS, actually, now that I think about it.
I'll be back.

[sweetsurprise]

Jennifer18131 just tell him to be grateful he had a few weeks of sleep. Also, about the ears. That's what DS was doing and then all the sudden he started seeming actually sick. H is taking him to the dr today.

darwinfish Maybe we should clickii poll about the password protection?
americanninjamommy so many teef!!

kellrr. What's running? Does. Not. Compute.

[windwithfingers]

Well it's 8:30 in the morning and I'm about done with the goddamn learning farm. I fucking know the cow moos in the barn. STFU.

My advice is to get to the ped today before the weekend. We are on infection number 5 - I think we will be told to go to the ENT

Lol we have 1/4 of one tooth in (9 months today)

[windwithfingers]

Jennifer18131 DS has been pulling on his ear for two weeks. No signs of infection and the pedi said it can either be a sign of teething or just that they've discovered their ears. I saw her yesterday.
