5 Things Friday

[mommabakes]

1) We are getting family pictures done in a couple of weeks. I need to go shopping for something for myself to wear, and I'm dreading it. I hate my gut, and trying to find clothes that help hide it is so hard

2) I need to meal plan/make up a grocery list, fold laundry, and vacuum. Instead I'm watching Fixer Upper while the kids nap.

3) We are putting in a garden, and I'm kind of excited about it. Hopefully I can keep it up well.

4) My husband got offered (and accepted) a new position at work. Way better hours, but unfortunately not much more $$$. They added his current salary with his overtime from last year and that was the offer. So, on paper it's 6k more than his current salary, but in actuality it's what he makes.

5) DD has started fighting naps like crazy. I don't think she's ready to drop them, because she's a big, whiny mess on days she doesn't get a nap. Ugh, toddlers.

mommabakes--- do you have any lularoe shirts? I only have the leggings, but people swear the shirts are great for hiding the midsection.

1. This weekend was the baby's first birthday party and I'm exhausted! It was only 20 people and we ordered most of the food but still lots of prep to get the house looking good beforehand!

2. I'm attempting to get both kids to nap right now at the same time. FX it actually happens.

3. I need to start budgeting better and saving more $. We seem to spend a lot on random things throughout the month and I'd like to set a limit on it.

4. We ordered a swingset from step 2 for the kids and they love it! It's going to be for both of their birthday presents.

5. Anyone hear from wowcheezits? Is that baby ready to come out yet?

1. It's Monday. But I'm still playing because we were gone all weekend.

2. The weather is unreal here right now. It feels like summer, and last year I'm pretty sure we still had snow at this time. I busted out the kiddie pool. All of the work setting it up and DD now has no interest. Haha.

3. We just put an offer on a new home to buy/build. DH keeps changing his mind about whether it's a good idea and it's driving me nuts. One day he's all for it, the next he wants to back out and I wish he'd just commit to it either way.

4. 4 pm and I haven't planned dinner yet.

5. I'm hoping to go on a date with DH tomorrow night with no kids. We've had ONE date since DD2 was born.

jnetx how is your H adjusting to the baby? Any better?

[salemkitty]

I'm glad it's getting better

Going back to work is tough. I proof IEPs for my system so this time of year is Crazy.
The baby has a scream that makes you want to jump out a window so that hasn't helped H any. The baby is getting better (looks like he has food allergies like DS1 and he's got reflux) and H is warming up to him.

Good Luck at your appt.
I switched him to the convertible car seat at 3 months. That helped the screaming
I hope you get some answers I'm sorry your LO seems in pain
