Send all the coffee !! My children dislike me this week ! The toddler and LO are teething so we've had minimal sleep at night and crap naps since last Monday ! Why cant they just be born with a mouthful of teeth !!??
My sisters BFF ( which she is like my second sister ) just had her baby this morning . My sister was there and just texted me " OMG she didn't even push the baby just popped out ". I'm irrationally jealous of women who "pop out "kids . I pushed for hour with both , so exhausting !
It's officially summer here and hot as heck ! The toddler has a play date at the splash pad . I'm dreading it with LO . I hate having her out in the heat !
Rainy and coldish aka the best reason to not leave the house today. I need to do some cleaning and night even attempt to nap during A's morning nap.
I applied 2 weeks ago on an awesome job right in my city and they never called me which I kinda knew since I was 50% qualified. It just had made me realized how much I'm not looking forward to commuting to work .
H leaves for CA this morning with his brother and the three dogs. I'm kind of jealous of all the sightseeing and camping they are going to do. They are going to see Frank Lloyd Wright's Falling Water first and I'm sure it's going to be super neat.
Kids were up early this morning. I woke up and H wasn't there guess he slept on the couch. I have had a headache for almost a week now, it's accompanied by a stiff neck and achey joints. This sucks I thought sleeping in yesterday would help the cause, but nope. I use to get migraines as a teenager, so much that my neurologist had me on medication for them. I still get one every once in a while. I really hope it's not making a comeback in my life.
Val was a bit grouchy yesterday between cutting her second top tooth(we now have 5 teeth!) & having a huge poop she couldn't get out without some help she was a sad panda yesterday. Only wanted me, she would only tolerate H is DS was around to entertain her.
It's going to be sunny & hot today. Hopefully I'll get the kiddie pool filled up for later.
My boss offered us his beachfront 6 bedroom house for Father's Day weekend, to invite whomever we want. I really want to go but Glen is worried about kids ruining their home and the stress of going away. Such a Debbie downer! They'd each have their own room and we would be on the beach.
Today is another gorgeous day. Not a cloud in the sky. This has been the best weather in all the times I've been here. Any hotter and the no AC anywhere problem becomes apparent. But it's warm with very little humidity which is great. I'm sitting in the shade in the back yard with DD sleeping in my lap. We are headed to my H's friends house in a bit. Their kids are almost the exact age as ours so should be fun. You can't really get normal brewed coffee here. Only espresso drinks. It's going to be tough going back. Im loving my double shot lattes.
My child is refusing all good except the damn peanut snacks. Urgh.
Waiting for a guy to arrive from the moving company for the first in-home estimate, another one is coming on Wednesday. Not sure how many quotes to get...any advice from recent moving families? Please say two
I've been solo parenting since Thursday, since H is super sick. He was better enough this morning to feed A while I rounded stuff up, but she only wanted me. Which is funny, because she spent most of the weekend looking for H. He's staying home, so I took her to DC (he usually does mornings). OMG, little girl just wanted to keep giving me hugs! So hard to walk away from that. She wasn't fussing or crying, just wanted to keep giving me neck hugs. Love her so much!
My throat is getting icky and I'm exhausted from trying to prevent late night raves in the nursery. I'm in denial that H is getting me sick again. I have a conference this week. I've been looking forward to two nights of complete, uninterrupted sleep!!

It's Father's Day so it's Glen decision, but wah.
That sounds awesome!
I feel like going away to a house (kitchen, separate bedrooms, etc) is so much less stressful than going away to a hotel.
Omg. Power blip, so computers freaking out. No big deal, but my coworker's babble is especially strong this morning. She's narrating her coupon hunt in the weekend paper.

Truthfully I only got one, it sounded reasonable, so I never got another. I had an idea of how much I thought it should be though. If it were me I probably would only get two, unless the two bids were really really far apart.
Dockatot gave me a 7.5 hour stretch and then a 3 hour stretch out of F. :::Angels sings:::
Other than that, I'm heading out to work as an incredibly nice and well rested person. We celebrated late last night my birthday at Top Golf. That place has GOOD food!

Yeah that's what I was thinking too, awesome thanks!
AFM, I just sat at the dermatology department of my hospital for an hour waiting for my appointment. The pediatrics clinic is right besides it. It gave me baby fever. Hard.

MH found a letter of apology from our neighbours this morning. It had her number on it so I thought I would give her a call so I could talk to her and make sure she knows that we're not assholes and we're not going to call every time we can slightly hear them, that it was an issue of noise volume. When the officer showed up and they were talking to him we could hardly hear them so I wanted to let her know that we aren't trying to be unreasonable and if they just keep the volume down it's all good.
She never apologized on the phone, just said "yep" to everything I said, and then said "we just wanted you to know there's no hard feelings towards you". uhhhhhhh, what??
Why are people so clueless. Three months until we move.
Obnoxiously noisy neighbors are the worst, andtheheartbreakers, add cluelessness and that just amplifies it. Hope the next three months passes quickly for you!
M woke up at 2:30 am to nurse and wouldn't go back down until 3:45 am. I get up for work between 4-4:30 am. Needless to say, I am chugging coffee and doing all I can to avoid falling asleep at my desk.
Also, I dropped her off at DC this morning and for the first time she cried as I was leaving and reached for me. So. Damn. Sad. I cried in the car on the way into work. Hopefully it was just a fluke and she will be fine tomorrow. With MW being off for military training and OOT on and off through September, she is going to be there a lot more than usual.
Last night, I was dead asleep, (finally) after DD2 had been up 3x between 12 and 330, when at 4:30ish I heard DD1 yelling "mommy". But it wasn't distant on the monitor, if sounded close. I popped out of bed and opened our door and she was sitting outside our door, sobbing and holding her bunny. She kept saying "your door stuck, your door stuck" and crying. She's sick too, so she was coughing and all snotty. I don't know how long she had been trying to get in our room. It scared us though cuz she has never done that. She never gets out of her bed, let alone her room. I'm just happy she went right to our room instead of roaming around, but I felt so bad I didn't hear her right away. Oh and now she and I have been awake since...yaaaaawn
Hello ladies! Not much to report here. No sleep, living with parents suck, yadda yadda. I'm just counting down the days- and hopefully July 13 will come quickly! I'm also starting to panic slightly because I've fallen behind the required reading for my doula certification class, so I'll be spending a lot of time doing that. Hopefully when this class is over and I'm settled in my place I'll have more time for here! I miss you guys. andtheheartbreakers your neighbors are incredibly crazy. Holy moly. I'm so happy you get to move away soon!

we saw 15 houses this weekend, and made an offer on one in McKinney. Sitting here tapping my fingers waiting to here if our offer was accepted.
Baby is napping, I'm meeting another TCF friend for lunch, and we are going out for dinner for the first time since last August. Not a bad day planned!
It's going to very warm and sunny here today so I am taking Owen swimming today. It will be his first time swimming. My friend and her 3 boys are coming with us. I'm nervous about having him out in the sun too long. I ordered a baby beach tent that is just big enough to sit him in for some shade, but it hasn't arrived yet.
We had a nice night last night celebrating June birthdays with my family. My dad, my cousin's husband and I all have birthdays withing 10 days, so we do one big celebration now. Z loved "playing with" my cousin's daughter who just turned 1 last month.
Z is still doing well since his reaction to dairy Sat night. I called the Pedi this morning and they are ok waiting til Friday at his 9 month appt to discuss. I talked to DC this morning so they know that he can't have any dairy. The Assistant Director was there at drop of, and she recommended doing the skin test (rubbing a new food on his skin) before introducing it now. So I'll mention that to the pedi on Friday and see what she thinks about that for some foods we still haven't tried (eggs, PB, Soy).
I've been trying to drink my coffee for two hours now. Baby is cutting four teeth. Toddler is super wound up. DH is grumpy bc none of us are sleeping. So it's going to be one of those days i guess...
I know I'm going to regret saying this, but I'm annoyed that no one has scheduled a showing with us yet. The listing went up at an awkward time on Sunday, but come on! My house is great, I promise!
My dads girlfriend broke up with him over the weekend. They have been together 3 years and this is the second time she's done this. He's so sad and I'm heartbroken for him.
His 70th birthday is on Friday and I'd love to go to his house in the mountains and spend the weekend with him. But we have A's birthday party on Saturday and my cousins christening on Sunday. At least I'll get to see him.
She was totally fine at my brother's wedding - in all the pro pics and introduced with my dad. He's blindsided.
Last night G bit my boob, the sore infected one, and I had a total freak out. Intense pain!! And sobbing, then I decided I was done breastfeeding and went to make him a bottle of formula. I opened a box of samples I have but the instructions are crazy, so much boiling!
Do you all boil everything?
Anyways, I gave up on that and got a bag of frozen milk out of the freezer but he never drinks it and didn't this time.
By the time I was going to bed my boobs were full and so I caved and nursed him. I think I'm too lazy to formula feed, it's so much work.
I called my Dr this morning and he's going to fax another rx for antibiotics in. Hopefully get rid of this mastitis finally.
And I have a yeast infection from the antibiotics and I think I'm getting my first pp period. And I drank too much last night to cope with boob pain and I'm a little hung over today.

Ugh, I need a nap.
No need for boiling after 4 months.
Sorry you are still in pain
Good to hear. I give him water straight from the brita in the fridge so it seemed dumb that I would have to boil it for a bottle :/
