Hey! We're finishing up a great breakfast and then heading to the Cleveland zoo.
LO fought us last night on sleep for two hours - we had to walk her around the hallways of the hotel for about 45 minutes before she finally crashed. The very loud crowd of drunken sports parents in the atrium didn't help any.
There's a wedding at our hotel today and I'm excited to see the bride's dress. I miss wedding stuff!

The new bed was super comfy! Jules slept petty well in it, and so did I. I'm debating on what time we should leave the house to head up to our lake house today. Hopefully SO finishes running errands fast and we can get up there by noon.
carolyngrace , 3am?! Is this like a special Father's day weekend treat or that still happening on the regular?! Also, donuts sound fantastic right now.
2am is the average on weekends. He knows how I feel about it so I've stopped saying it. Instead I just take the early shift Saturday but make him do it Sunday so I can sleep in.
ETA: there is a special Father's Day treat in the works but it's nsfw so I can't say here
Good morning! We've been up playing for almost 2 hours already. Trying to finish up Father's Day gifts. This would be easier if C liked to paint, but he can't stand paint on his hands (which makes trying to do handprint crafts very hard!) We'll head out to the farmers market soon to pick up some fresh strawberries and a few other things. I also need to pick something up for DH from me. Hope everyone has a great day!
It looks really nice! We debated on going since we can get into places like the art museum or natural history museum for free but ultimately decided it was $26 well spent!
carolyngrace, my H came to bed at 3am as well. I picked a fight this time and we didn't go to sleep until after 4. His alarm went off at 9 and I told him to go back to bed. He apologized for staying up so late...again. But I think he agreed to go pick blueberries today. It's supposed to only get to 80 and not be too humid so it would be a fun family outing. Waiting for O to be ready for his nap. I'm trying to figure out weaning with a baby who still loves the boob. We go to Vegas in 3 weeks without O sooo I should probably get on that. Any tips? Eta-my freezer stash is maybe 40oz and it's mostly from September/October so it isn't the same type as what he's used to now because I didn't understand how bm worked then.

Planning to head to a farmers market this morning too. Then maybe a park to do some cruising around. Pretty quiet day and hopefully LO will be in a better mood, he was happy yesterday until after nap then it was Mr. Crankypants Extraordinaire until bedtime. Please don't repeat that kid.
Our party was a great success! L was wildly overexcited all morning so she didn't nap. I was apprehensive, but the attention and food kept her going till we started clearing up. Then she started to melt down, so I found a park bench in the shade and now I'm in nap jail whilst H clears up with my parents' help. And there's a decent signal here. I call that a win!
I hope everyone else who has a party today has a great time :-)

Yay! I'm so glad it was a hit!! And you get to be in nap jail instead of cleaning up :-)
It's party day here!!!! H is out running errands, I'm waiting for DS to get tired to put him down for his nap, then I just need to make guac and cut up the fruit salad. It's supposed to be hotter than hell today, so hoping everyone actually brings their swim suits. So excited for party time!
My kid took 2 steps yesterday. Other than that I'm trying to keep MM occupied while cleaning our very messy house. Shopping for birthday presents and scoping out 1st birthday photo locations later.
Party day! Cake turned out better than I expected! I decided to go with regular sprinkles because I found the right kind last minute. (Sorry if huge, Im posting from a tablet) More pics to come on monday in a party thread!
It's cloudy and gloomy here this weekend. Going to take the kids and dogs for a walk in the stroller then meeting my parents over at our new house to show them around.
H is still out of town for work. He'll be back next Saturday.
Great looking desserts veggiemo and @mrsmonnogrammed!!
It's MIL's birthday so we're taking her to lunch. I can't wait to eat my way through some delicious BBQ! (That being the smoked typed food slathered in sauce - in case there was any confusion on what I will be devouring in the next hour).

I've given up trying to understand what you (collectively) mean when you talk about barbecue. It had never occurred to me that it could mean anything other than cooking outdoors using a heat source from below. I read the whole thread a few weeks ago but am still befuddled. Enjoy your meal, tjanca22!
veggiemo, looks great! Over here, the little round sugar balls are more common. They're called hundreds-and-thousands. Have a wonderful party!
mrsmonogrammed, looks delicious! Hope you have a fabulous party, too.

We're having a weekend away with lo and my parents. She really did not like when we put her down in the pack and play for her afternoon nap yesterday, but luckily after a little more fighting than usual, she had a typical night sleep. And she's now down for her first nap. Wedding later tonight, I should probably shower at some point...

DH has referenced it being Father's Day "weekend" twice and is now taking a nap. It's official, next Mother's Day I'm booking a spa day and overnight somewhere
