It is the last day of my trip visiting my family. I'm flying back this evening. Maybe the two kids will sleep on the plane? They finally adjusted to the time here...so now they will be waking up at like 5:00am when we get back to mountain time, lol. Oh well. We had a good time and there was beautiful weather. I loved getting my kids together with their cousins too.
E wouldn't nurse last night or this morning. DC lady said it's fine, just pump bottles for her. Yeah, I'm NOT feeling EPing. Got mainsplained to by a work colleague and should totally get a medal for keeping my cool. On the plus side I'm day 2 of WW and working out.

ldubhawksfan, are you donating BM sometime soon? I thought I read that somewhere. I am starting to wonder if its a good time for me to do the same. Freezer is getting a bit packed again and C seems to have plateaued with his daily intake. How many ounces do you typically give in one donation?
Not much here. E's kind of a pill today. She was overnight, too. I think she's about to get her SEVENTH tooth, the way she's acting: clingy, whiny, cries while nursing, screams at night, CLINGY (did I mention that already?)...tomorrow is my last weekday with her before school starts and I don't want to resent it because she's in such a mood. In between the fussing she's her normal happy self. I'm so tired.
I am not ready for school to start. I'm not ready to give up my time with her, though I know it's probably better for her to go to DC and see other people besides me all day. I'm not ready to deal with keeping up the house, working, and taking care of E. I know I can do it, I did it Jan-May, but the beginning of a school year is a blur the best of years. It's all copies and schedule switches and portrait days and open houses and copies and copies and copies. And it's fucking hot as hell and you're just a sweaty done mess at the end of the day. And then 12 hours later you wake up and do it all over again :/
ldubhawksfan, yummeecookee, wow...donating BM. I'm curious how much your LOs are taking in a day? I feel like DD is not so into the BM anymore and just wants to eat real food. She's also totally over purees so we're basically doing real food only now! :S

I've been donating about once a month. My pumping output has actually taken a bit of a hit since my last period. I don't know if DD is eating less from my boobs since she is now eating more solids or what. She still eats 15 oz during the day in bottles, which is the same though. So I have to use some of my morning pump to make up the 3+ oz I've been short during my work pumps. Because of that, I might have to stretch my donations out. I was trying to keep 900 oz, but went to check and must have accidentally over donated/messed up mental math last time because I have 750ish right now. I'm wondering if I want to keep donating periodically since I'm so close to our year goal or just make one massive donation post in like 4 months! Generally I've been donating around 100-150 oz per baby.

E is giving up her afternoon nap. Yesterday was the first time she took one in a week. Please send wine.
Mine gave it up right around 6 months haha. He put himself on the 2-3-4 schedule. So he naps 2 hrs post wake up, 3 hours after that wake up, then bed 4 hours wake up. So it's usually 9:30/1:30/7:30. Toddler still naps at 1/1:30 so they typically nap together...in my bed...on my side hahahaha.

He drinks around 12oz in bottles at DC. He is just far more interested in solid food.

Back from our mini vacation with a cold! Ugh! E was great except for biting down on my nipple and pulling. Then laughing when I screamed in pain. All I want is two more months so he needs to cut that shit out. This kid really loves attention. He also learned how to wave so he will stare people down until they pay attention to him and then he flashes a smile and a wave. People just eat it up and he loves it.

So she's only taking 1 nap? I thought my son was early at 11 months.
We sometimes still have 3 with this baby who also Fs with me on her number of wake ups.
Lately, yes
I'm not sure if it's because of teeth, she's already really clingy, but definitely more so in the afternoon. But I leave her in her crib for 20-30min every hour if I think she needs one and she just does not go to sleep!
So like today.
Last night she was down at 715 with Tylenol because I think she has her top teeth coming in.

I'm ready to punt my realtor right in the junk. So over this process.
I'm so sorry. Selling a house is such a PITA and makes you so anxious.
And our stager just suggested we move DD2's crib out of our room. Where my baby sleeps is not your job. We all meet tomorrow and I just might toss them all out of my god damn house.

That is so annoying. I swear realtors don't actually listen to their clients.

DH tells me this and then says "but I already told them no because we'd have to take the whole crib apart to move it." And my response was something like "I DON'T FUCKING CARE ABOUT TAKING THE CRIB APART, I'M NOT MOVING MY BABY FROM MY ROOM TO CONVENIENCE THEIR STUPID VISION FOR MY. FUCKING. HOUSE!!!" Might have forgotten a few fbombs. They likely forgot they are messing with a pregnant lady who was annoyed with them already pre-getting KU. DH watched a movie with me tonight so I think he was trying to sooth the bear. He may be a little happy he gets to leave for a while.
