Randoms 5/23

[jewel441]

Starting off the week with a really random though.

Why does LO' s little zipper sleepies or w/e they're called have a real pocket? First of all it's like big enough for a penny, second of all what does she have to carry around?

My baby is two today! I can't believe it.

Our washing machine is on the fritz. It started making this horrible sound yesterday. I called a repair shop first thing this a.m. Earliest appt was tomorrow afternoon; we have B's 2month shots at 1 tmrw.

The woman was super sweet & said they would call when they were going to head this way & if it wouldn't work, she would put me down for Wed just in case. Hoping we can get it fixed asap!

Oh hey there AF, I was really hoping that maybe that your visit would be postponed a bit longer, but I guess not :/

(I know I mentioned randomly bleeding a few times, but this is the real thing - cramps, supply dip, and everything ).

Our anniversary is tomorrow. We bought some outdoor chairs for the porch and we're planning to go to the garden center again.

We're introducing Bud to our family this weekend, so trying to get house projects done, clean, and prepare decorations and edibles!

Y'all, Superman is 3 months old today. I can't even.

My friend came over with her 6 month old, and her LO chewed on a couple of plush toys and was on her play mat. Do I need to wash the whole mat? Just what she chewed on? Nothing?

Definitely throw the plush toys in the laundry.  The mat...I would do it, but I don't think that's as immediate as the plush toys.

Back to work yesterday. Second day is going ok.

Was about to post the same thing.

Feeling kinda blah about it.

I desperately want Joanna Gains to design my house. So much so, I Mau move to Waco to make this happen. These are the things I think about while W sleeps.

Honestly unless the kid was sick, I'd probably not do anything more than wipe the plush toys with a wipe lol.

Phew this is me if that lol. I never cleaned toys other babies played with with dd1. Never even occurred to me.

My giant monster baby is now in 6 month pjs as well as 6 month pants. Little chunk will probably bust out of that and be in 6-9s by the time we hit DD2's birthday in June.
At this rate, she'll be as tall as me by Christmas and play basketball for the state in about 18 months...

I feel you! I keep thinking growth will slow down.

[jewel441]

Since learning to roll LO gets very little tummy time. She just loves to roll. She will stay up for like a min and then just rolls (and then I roll her back and we continue like this until she gets done) I'm not really worried, she has really great head control. Her rolling is getting more coordinated looking too.

Last week I decided to go back to work. Today I'm back at work.

The kitchen called out. Literally, everyone in the kitchen.

I immediately regret this decision.

I went on an interview this morning.... 20 minutes from home instead of my normal 1-2 hour commute. Fingers cross for me, I think it went very well.

This is great to hear! Any idea when you should hear back from them?

Edit: Hear? Read? Whatever works there.

Next week, I think my chances are pretty good.   The population (nursing home residents) is very educated and most people working in my field don't have degrees, so having a masters may help.

There would be a second round interview to meet other managers.

I have not been on in 2 weeks. I go back to work on Tuesday. We had planned on Mon but my boss called me to say that we are closed on Memorial Day. Lots of mixed feelings. I don't remember much of my return to work with DS. I am excited a little but also sad and nervous. I don't know if I have enough milk pumped.

[xxkimmy8xx]

You guys. So many of you are going back to work! Here I am with an 8 week old... and I can't imagine going back to work! His schedule is still super erratic, he freaks out randomly... Please tell me things get markedly better between weeks 8 and 12.

[mom2boxers]

Naps are a bit erratic since starting DC, but when it comes to food and overnight sleep, we have a good schedule. She's a little over 12 weeks.
