Today the superintendent for our school is coming for a visit. As has been the theme of my life this school year, I'm not ready, I could've been ready, but lack of motivation ran out a LONGGGG time ago. I got up early to do work, but that was after going back to bed 20 minutes later than I should've.
We'll be headed to the doctor later as well. DS is NOT a happy camper. Fever is still elevated, still having terrible poops. I was really hoping we had turned a corner late yesterday, but apparently not. I'm not sure that there's anything the ped can actually do for him, and day care told me there is a stomach virus going around the infant room, but it's been going on long enough now (since late Thursday) that we want the peace of mind that there's not something more sinister we need to worry about. At least H was able to take a sick day, so I'm at work for a couple hours to get some stuff done, and then I'll probably be home with them later today.
budders yeah districts here are having a terrible time getting subs. The pay is shit and most of the time we're not respected, so...I wonder why?
This district relies heavily on older retired teachers to sub and we have two building subs here in my building plus a teacher who is here full time that is just meant to take small groups and cover for classes. It's insane that we still can't cover!

I did some major birthday party planning/delegating/crafting this weekend so I'm feeling good. Menu is set and everyone knows what they're bringing (the grandmas and aunts want to help by bringing appetizers).
I printed all her monthly photos for a banner and looking at the changes month to month is crazy!! I'm so glad I stuck with taking the pictures even when the later months usually resulted in this- POOF
I'm all sorts of anxious this morning since I got a job offer last week. I need to talk to the new job about details today, and then to my boss about the new job. Both conversations should be fine, but that doesn't change the fact I'm nervous about them.
Lol, I think I'm going to make a second banner of her pissed off monthly pictures, kind of like a Tell-all banner. I'll save it so she can have physical evidence when she talks about it in therapy later in life;)

Hope all of the sick babies feel better! Good luck billyhorrible!
We have our mom and tot group this morning. Whoever decided that the best time for this was a Monday morning clearly hasn't tried getting out of the house with young kids. I'm hoping that they play hard so that they have a nice, long, simultaneous nap this afterrnoon.
In other news, we booked flights to Maui! We are going at the end of June for my 30th and I can't wait! Anyone been there with kids and have any reccomendations? I was young, single, and crazy my last trip there...

Laying in bed with T, and contemplating my next move. Feed him, or run to the bathroom before my bladder explodes and risk waking him....
DH wanted ST last night, but I passed out putting T to sleep. Woke up briefly at midnight, ditched my bra, and went back to bed. No idea what time DH came to bed. Oh well.
Mom has an MRI this morning, and I'm making rhubarb upside down cake for our mtg this evening. Hoping DD is super cooperative for schoolwork today so I can be on here more.
I'm proud of myself today. Took L out at ten for playgroup, then we got invited to feed the ducks. I didn't let her do any feeding because she would just have eaten it herself, but she got really excited watching! Then we did some shopping for H's birthday on Thursday and I sat in the sun whilst she napped. We met a friend for lunch and got home at 2.30.
Of course, now I'm not feeling so good, but Granny's here to play so I'm lying down. I wanted to give her as normal a day as possible and I think I achieved it!
I'm trying to plan our trip to New Jersey and New York City next week and my anxiety is kicking in. NYC without a baby would be easy; with is just making me so anxious!

Sorry for all the sick babies. Can I just say teething is the worst? The absolute worst? I 100% do not believe that "all teething produces is teeth ". No, it produces monsters. Little 20 pound, whiny, biting monsters.
Hope all the sick babies and mamas feel better today.
I'm home with M today because MIL got a cold. He's currently sleeping for almost an hour and 45 minutes which never happens. Poor guy has about 3-4 teeth coming at the same time and needed advil at 2 am to get back to sleep.
Hoping it isn't too windy later and we can go to the park on the swings today.
The weather is supposed to get back to gorgeous this week so we'll be back to a bunch of outside time again yay!
sugarkissed I haven't been yet but we are going in December and I think michyme123 is going a couple months later so you'll have to give us some reviews! Sounds awesome, hope you have a good time!

a full disclosure banner?
Yes, for anyone thinking that having kids is romantic and fun all the time;)

mrsmonogrammed We have an outtakes album on Facebook because DD1 was soooo uncooperative every month. This is the reality of monthly photos.. Yet I still did it again with the second baby.
