Anyone have fun plans for the long weekend? I'd like to do something, not sure what yet. It got really hot up here all of a sudden, so something outside would be nice.
After such a crazy & stressful week I just want to relax. I let DH sleep in while I drank coffee and watched the bachelorette .. Some actually hot dudes this season haha. But also man. I'm glad I'm done with dating.
Tmi but have anyone else's hormone swings gotten a lot stronger pp? My PMS moods are BAD... And now that my period is clearing up I want like alllll the sex. You know it's bad when like all of your coworkers and 90% of men on the train start looking sexy. Ew.
Also I'm trying not to get my hopes up but I applied for a job transfer... In Madrid... I speak Spanish well enough to make it work and DH is bilingual. I have no idea if it will work out but I would be so happy if it did. The only hard part would be the distance from family increasing.
I hope everyone has a super relaxed weekend. Enjoy it!
Working today!! DH happened to mention something last night as I was going to bed about having a date night tonight...he said maybe we can take H to your parents.. I love that he is taking the initiative but I don't like waiting until last minute to ask my parents to watch H.... I am going to call them in a bit and just see if they will be on standby! Also I think I am getting LO's cold, my throat is scratchy! I am off tomorrow so thinking of going to the beach!

Hey friends! Hope everyone has a good weekend. I have to work today, but it's only for 4 hours. We have a gender reveal party to go to on sunday and then if the weather cooperates we will go to the pool on monday.
Good morning! Kids are finally in the clear with the HFM! Whew that was a long week and a half. Suppose to be rainy here all weekend, so not really sure what we are going to do. I call this LO model on the beach pose.
Good morning! Had a blast last night celebrating one of our friend's birthdays. They have 3 and 4 year old boys and it was so fun watching them play with lo. Lo didn't get to bed until 11 (FFSC) aaaand of course he was up at 6:30 on the dot. Really going to try to reinforce 2 naps today. This is the 1st weekend we don't have a ton of plans, and it's kind of nice. Looking forward to getting things done around the house and hanging out with dh and lo. And of course there's a Harry Potter marathon on TV which is totally killing my productivity... Hanging out by the water... in my own front yard. Cheap entertainment: a mirror and some floss.
bkmama0 I don't notice hormone swings too bad, but I do notice other that other symptoms like cramping and spotting are worse the days leading up to my period. And it's totally bizarre but I've noticed I feel like crap for a couple days before I O. Good luck with the transfer! That's exciting! babyw15 hope plans line up so you can have a date night. Have fun at the beach! BabyStandish hope those 4 hours go by fast! nemomof2 that pic cracks me up. Glad the HFM is all cleared up!

bkmama0 hope you find something fun to do outside and get to relax, we are in the heatwave too!! We took B to the park yesterday but only lasted like 30ish minutes because it was so hot and I thought he was going to get overheated. We came back and let him splash in our makeshift water table (a bin without the lid filled with water on top of another bin haha) he loved it! babyw15 hope you don't get the cold but can have a date night!!! BabyStandish sounds like a fun weekend! Did you find out if your store is closing and if you can transfer? nemomof2 thank goodness your LOs are feeling better! Hope the forecast turns around for you! (That model on the beach made me lol!) ashlantic party sounds like fun, I love that at this age B really likes to play with other kids, so cute! Weekends with nothing planned can be the best!

The pool at our complex opens today, should be hot enough and I think B will love it! Hope it isn't too crowded. I'll try to take some pics to AW later! Hope everyone has a good day!

I'm up and everyone is still sleeping here. Em was such a cranky pants yesterday. I plan on letting her sleep as long as possible. No real plans here. Some homework. AF should be here any minute so thrilled about that.
Spent an hour or so at the park. It's 85 degrees and the sprinklers are on. First hot weekend of the year, feels great. I'm sure I'll be tired of it a few days from now but the sun is so nice for now.

Happy Saturday! Felt like a long morning. Watched movies and cleaned the house a bit. Leo is having lunch and then we'll head out to run errands and visit family.
I really want a frap or something iced. Even though I don't think it's that hot today.

Garage sale today was a bit of a bust - just not a lot of foot traffic. Sold a few of the baby items, but not the big ticket ones I was hoping for (Peg Perego stroller system and some of my baby-wearing items). Still made about $150, but now I'm going to have to try getting some interest of the Facebook b/s/t pages or consignment shops. More work. Ugh, work. My soccer league starts tomorrow. Excited to meet some new ladies, but nervous because my fitness sucks right now, but also anxious because I need to start exercising more and this is a start of the return to the old me (ie - before kids) and I'm ready to get back to it!
ourcrazynavylife too cute with the leggings. shannjohnston hope you can shift the big items and that soccer is fun! nemomof2 that dress is adorable. I've always wanted to do something like that for LO. So far I only managed to crochet her a tiny hat that got a few months use. Glad your Los are recovered. littlelion hope your day went well! reginaphalange3 it's so hot, but a nice change from the 50 degree days. hope you made it to the pool! ashlantic hope you had a relaxing day! babyw15 hope you had a nice date night. BabyStandish hope your day was nice too.
Today LO said stuff like "all done keekoo (cookie)" when she finished her cookies, "hungry egg" when DH was making eggs for us, "uppy down" when bouncing up and down, and "hi Titi Lizzie" - stringing little phrases together. Pretty exciting. She can also sing a pretty good rendition of row your boat, twinkle twinkle, old macdonald, and the ABCs. Also has stated saying "hug!" "Nummy!" And "yucky!" So cute.
Also my tapatalk is blowing up my phone with notifications and automatically following everyone.. Jeez
It was super hot here today but we had fun at my friend's piping competition. Her little one is almost one and F had so much fun playing with her in her bouncy castle.

Hi!! Just popping in! I'm at my parents' house this weekend with my sister and her two girls. LO is having a big time with his cousins, but MOTY over here took zero pictures today. I'll do better tomorrow and post some! Just a couple things from catching up on the last couple days - raven Thinking of you! reginaphalange3 Also thinking of you and YH. Fx he can find something comparable or even better soon! And bkmama0 Madrid!!! So jealous if you get that!

Decided to be really proactive about the sore throat I woke up with and took zicam and an airborne drink on an empty stomach. And now the nausea has hit. I feel like dying.
@bkmama Madrid sounds so fun! babyw15 hope you went on your date night! BabyStandish loved the picture of your puppy! ashlantic hope LO took 2 naps for you. That is one of the reasons I miss cable (we have Netflix and Amazon prime) I loved having movies run in the background while doing my work. Now the toddler knows I can play anything in the world, which only includes Jake the pirate, curious George, and Sofia the First reginaphalange3 hope you are having a relaxing weekend and thinking of you and YH. ourcrazynavylife love the matching leggings! I get a monthly knit fix (fabric yardage) and plan on making some for DD and I out of some fun Aztec print that I got this month. littlelion I got to go to target by myself yesterday with no time limit and the whole way there all I could think about was a frap. When I got there the line was so long that I was planning on going back but forgot shannjohnston I really need to find a summer league of some kind to help with the fitness. megpie5 love the sweet baby kisses! laceysbryan have fun with your family! kcrus hope your weekend gets better.
Tried to go swimming this morning and the pool was closed. Naptime was a no go either- lo fell asleep in the car, pooped after we put him in his crib, and then decided a 10 minute nap was good. We fail at Sunday. Here's hoping this afternoon is better!
reginaphalange3 how did lo like the pool? bkmama0 love the pic of your lo looking at the fountain- my lo gets those same "excited hands." littlelion oooh now I want a frap. Maybe I'll stop after round 2 of trying to get to the pool. nemomof2 she is the cutest! shannjohnston good luck getting back into the swing of things with fitness. It's tough- I'm trying to get there as well. ourcrazynavylife stop it, you guys are the cutest! megpie5 that smooching pic is so sweet! Lo has finally decided giving kisses is fun. He even gave one to his friend the other night unprompted. laceysbryan ugh, hope your stomach settled down! kcrus I hope whatever's bringing your weekend down knocks it off right away. BabyStandish looks like a great Saturday!
