Weekend Shennanigans + Awwws

[littlelion]

Good morning!

[littlelion]

Leo woke me up before 5:30 am. He's out like a light already. DH is working. We have bday party today that I decided last minute we'll go to ourselves without dh. So, I went to the Gap the minute they opened and bought a present. And then swung by the kids hair salon and got leo squeezed in. Hope you're all having a great Saturday morning!

Drank wayyyy too much wine last night and had to come to class today.
But. I made cookies.

Haha

[BabyStandish]

Heyyyy! We are very busy this weekend. We have a wedding rehearsal/lunch this afternoon, date night tonight and then a wedding to go to tomorrow.

I got B a hat yesterday at Target

[raven]

DH is home. We plan on getting a couples massage at some point today. Nothing else planned.


Watching grandpa mow the lawn

[bkmama0]

She took a nice long nap and had some fruit and pretzels when she woke up. Visiting DH's sister to drop off an AC unit and then possibly going to the beach later. Relaxing day so far.

Trying to control the urge to binge on buying a ton of IKEA stuff, but we need a few things (entryway wardrobe thing, new couch, desk chair) and I never have the patience to save up for the nice stuff. Furniture is so expensive! Anyone have recommendations for bargain yet modern looking furniture? I also like CB2 and West Elm in theory, but so dang pricey. Overstock is an option but IKEA is such an easy opt out. I like World Market too but mostly for curtains and rugs.

Hope all your weekends are lovely.

[bkmama0]

raven oo, enjoy the massage. That pic of your LO is so sweet, love the soft light and that expression!
BabyStandish have fun at the wedding! That hat is adorable. I like how the dog is kind of sniffing his head in the first pic then gives up and lays down in the second one. Lol
ourcrazynavylife mmm cookies and wine.
littlelion have fun at the bday party! Leo's such a cute little chunk.

[reginaphalange3]

littlelion bummer for the early wake up but hope you have fun at the party! Also I'm super impressed with your productivity! Leo is such a little boy now-adorable!
ourcrazynavylife I had a couple drinks last night and was feeling it this morning, but I didn't make cookies. I was actually thinking of making some today with a cheat recipe I saw online using a box of cake mix!
BabyStandish have fun at date night and the wedding!! I love that hat and B is so cute!
raven enjoy your massage! And such a pretty picture of your LO!
bkmama0 I've been thinking the same thing about furniture, so hard to save up for the nice stuff. We have a ton of mismatching furniture that's hand me downs from family, when we moved I just was saying we should have grown up furniture lol hope you find something you like though!! And C is getting so big!

[reginaphalange3]

Ugh still waiting to hear from this job interview. Mh is definitely getting down on himself but it's only been a week. He did find a place he could do some landscaping work for in the meantime so that's good. We just hope the unemployment goes through quickly bc without that we will be in trouble!
B and I went to the pool today and he was pretty cute. I also went out with some of my new neighbors last night as a little girls night (one of their H's manages the restaurant so it was free!!) and it was really fun! I definitely owe Mh for not minding me going out.
Aw of B playing at his 'water table' after the pool! (See scrape exhibit A on his arm :/ )

[landonsmom15]

I hope you are all having a great weekend (or if not, I hope it turns around quickly)!

Today is my 22nd birthday! My mom and sister are visiting, so they're watching LO tonight so that MH and I can do something. Problem is I don't even know what I want to do!

Oh and PSA- Once Upon a Child is doing there huge sale within the next few days! Ours was today and I was able to get sooo much stuff for LO and some stuff for future baby #2 (God willing) at 65% off!

[shannjohnston]

Love these weirdos.

Hanging in the backyard, did some gardening, going to a community concert in the park after done BBQ...awesome

[kcrus]

Going to have a total of ten kids here for a sleepover. It's 113F and no one will go outside. Going to be soooooo muuuuccccchhhhh fun (where's the sarcasm font?)! Oh, and I'm solo. H is working. #blessed

Eta: words

[BabyStandish]

shannjohnston your cat is so fluffy!

[ourcrazynavylife]

Making wishes

[bkmama0]

Went to visit my SIL and DH's cousin who live in the cool part of Brooklyn with 2 roommates. Went out for Ethiopian food which was delish. Ch was sooo excited to explore everything. DH got stuck helping them install their ACs and tried to change the lock on their door for them and now it's coming up on 10pm and we're still here. Putting Ch to sleep on my boob in SIL's room right now. Not sure if we'll wind up spending the night here. Ayiyi. It'll be ok but I'm not used to being away from my own comfy apartment wah

[ourcrazynavylife]

Seriously look at those big blue eyes

[ashlantic]

Spent the day hanging out in the yard with lo and dh. We had it all set up- little pool, water table, all his outdoor toys. Lo played and dh and I had a drink or 2 while we enjoyed the sun.
Lo's tooth is just breaking through and made for a cranky baby in the evening though. He was running a small temp last night. He ended up going to bed late, but slept from 8:30-8:30!!
Not much planned for today. It's supposed to be stormy so it should be a good day to get things done around the house.
His current obsession: standing in boxes/baskets/bins. Squeezing the bath foam was hilarious. Managed to catch this face and it cracks me up every time I see it.

[ashlantic]

littlelion hope Leo slept in for you today. How was the bday party? Leo is so handsome!
ourcrazynavylife making cookies while hungover? That is impressive. Love Em's cheesin grin.
BabyStandish hope your busy weekend is going smoothly! I'm always jealous of babies who wear hats. Lo used to let us put them on, now he just rips them off.
raven couples massage sounds wonderful! Such a cute pic of your lo.
bkmama0 how tall is she? Her legs look super long in that high chair pic! I would love some new furniture too. Our couches have definitely seen better days and dh's bedroom furniture- night stands and dresser are falling apart.
reginaphalange3 sounds like a fun weekend! Glad you got some girl time. Poor B. Lo had a scrape like that on his knee.
landonsmom15 happy birthday yesterday! What did you and YH end up doing?
shannjohnston sounds like a great Saturday. Your cat is the fluffiest thing I've ever seen!
kcrus may the odds be ever in your favor. Good luck!!

[bkmama0]

Super TMI but

SPOILER: Click to show

I might have gotten pregnant last night. Wasn't planning on it, but would be ok with it if it does happen. And subconsciously was kind of planning for it? It's still a little on the early side of my cycle though so might be safe. I do think I want 2 kids and it would be great spacing. But man I am not ready to be pregnant at work again. My work is so not down with that, culturally. And I'm just starting to finally get ahead. And more sleepless nights and breastfeeding and pumping round 2?? But I'm not on BC and think about having #2 a lot? But I'm just now getting my independence back now that Ch is a bit older? But would be better to have 2 and done now? Ahhh

I'm getting ahead of myself though, I may not be preg at all.

TMI over & out!

Stormy and dark here today. Kind of cozy. GoT tonight!

[kcrus]

Little bean is 17 months today! I can't believe how close they are all getting to 2... Can't say I will miss this toddler phase too much. She's really clingy and fussy today, on the tail end of a cold that won't quit.

Hope you all have a good day!

[littlelion]

bkmama0 & reginaphalange3 the good thing about not having new, good furniture right now is the kid(s) won't destroy it!
landonsmom15 happy belated birthday!
ashlantic we did end up the party...after a 3 hr afternoon nap! Both of us were in great moods. And that is one silly face you caught!
ourcrazynavylife such piercing blue eyes! She'll be a heartbreaker for sure!
raven another heartbreaker in the making!
shannjohnston lol weirdos. Hope you had fun at the concert.
kcrus did you survive the sleepover?

[littlelion]

At the party last night. Took Leo a bit to warm up but he had plenty of fun by the end of the night. The cupcake and munchkin I'm sure helped.

[kcrus]

littlelion it's still going, but so far, so good. Leo is the CUTEST.

[megpie5]

I only have blurry pics since F is moving too fast these days.
We went to visit DH at work yesterday and he gave LO some hospital stuff to play with. She looks like a little old lady lol.

At a wedding shower yesterday, I spent the whole time chasing her and hardly got to socialize. The girl's place was so nice and not baby proofed at all so I was nervous!

[ourcrazynavylife]

ashlantic it was more like making cookies drunk because you know I like to drink my whole bottle of wine and break out the kitchen aid

littlelion I knoww!! I'm still kind of shocked they stayed blue. I thought for sure they were going to change. Lol I told DH the other day he better watch out because all these little boys were hugging her at daycare when I was picking her up.

[ourcrazynavylife]

bkmama0 I hope that turns out however you want it too.

[landonsmom15]

ashlantic and littlelion Thanks! We ended up seeing Alice Through The Looking Glass, getting pizza, and going to the bar for a drink (I had a birthday cake martini)! It wasn't anything too exciting, but still enjoyable.

[raven]

Massage at 2 today. It was at noon, but not with someone "pre-natal certified". Didn't know. At least I get one today. It's been over a year since my last one so I think I'm due lol.
DH is cranky and taking it out on me. I got put on pelvic rest and he's not taking it well. He keeps asking if he can "slip it in a little bit." *sigh* No, no you cannot. My appt is tomorrow and hopefully I get the clear to have sex again, if just to shut him up.
The pool we were going to get LO went on sale at Target, but by the time I got the our store, they were sold out. They have it at another store 20 minutes away and I'm contemplating on making the drive. I went ahead and bought her one anyway, but I really want to exchange it for the jungle one! I'll talk to DH and see what he thinks. I know I'm being high maintenance with this, but I don't care.

[babyw15]

landonsmom15, Happy Birthday! I feel so old!! LOL... I am going to be 37 the end of the month!
I am working today..DH and MIL took LO shopping for my B-day presents!!
The offer we put in on the house was shot down and they countered at list price!
So we are back to looking and letting them sit to see if they would like to entertain our offer...too bad because I was a nice house...
DH brought LO by to see my but he was passed out so the girls here at work were disappointed that they didn't get to see him
I am off the next 4 days but there is a tropical storm coming through so we might be stuck in the house... I need to find more sensory play that we can do indoors.

[landonsmom15]

babyw15 Thanks! And 37 is not that old, I'm just super young!
