It's almost 2:30 and I have yet to sleep. My kids must have schemed this plan to keep me up but alternating wakeups. Arg. Luckily it's Sunday tomorrow and not my first day back at work!

Jack was the worst yesterday. I had to let him cio because sleep just wasnt happening. I haven't had to do that in months, he's usually so good with bedtime. Then he woke up screaming again at 3 so I brought him to bed with me. Woke up screaming again at 6 and gave him some milk and he eventually fell back asleep. Now I'm awake and can't go back to sleep. Ugh. He's not just screaming for the hell of it right? There has to be a reason right?
H talks SO loud. All the time. This is especially annoying at 7 am when we've been up since 5 with the birthday girl. He is making DD2 her birthday pancakes while I watch Mickey with DD1 though. But dang, use your inside voice dude.
Happy birthday weekend to all those with birthdays and parties!! Sounds like everyone had a lot of fun!
I have finally allowed myself to start to think about M's party next weekend and birthday on Tuesday! I've been going through pictures from the past year and it is giving mer all the feels. This time last year there were still so many unknowns as we waited for word of his arrival! I was basically walking in a fog for 5 weeks from the time we got our match, until he was born. Constantly thinking 'so we're getting a baby, is this really happening???' and trying to just live life. Truth be told this time last year I was obsessing over the fact that we had such little information and all the social workers were on vacation and no way of getting information! What an amazing year!
AW: here is a picture I took for his birthday invitations. How I love this little boy!!

Attempting to night wean.
Last night, A wakes up crying. I bring him into bed to cuddle. I give him his pacifier. He grabs the pacifier and whips me twice in the eye with the clip, then slaps my boob. I wake up this morning, my eye is red and sore, and blood in my nose.

redandblue what a beautiful picture. I remember when my cousin got word that a mother had chosen them. The baby had already been born, I think, and they had like 24 hours to jump on a plane to go get their daughter. It was like it was meant to be too because my cousin shares a birthday with her daughter.
It's been a busy day. Cleaning and then to a friend's son's birthday first party. M is tuckered out b waiting on him to wake up then we're having dinner at SIL's. I'm glad that he's napping well, but wake up child, I'm ready for wine!
I cleaned off my desk and got my school stuff together Normally I'm excited about school, this time I'm just sad about the time it's going to take up. But I think I'll be interested in the courses.
Hope everyone is having fun since it's so quiet today.

I'm around but I'm stewing. DH is really grinding my gears by not taking care of me during this recovery. It's really making me mad. I haven't eaten in days and the mofo brings home a walnut salad but never got around to the protein shakes. Now he's saying I'm being ungrateful because I told him he's doing a shit job. Like get it together dude.
I had to go shopping today too because ds still needed a ring bearer outfit and I'm so exhausted. Good news is that we found it all though, minus a Bow tie I'll have to keep looking for.
We went and visited my mom today and actually had a good time! So that's new! I'm going to catch up tonight but I've been Lt everything. H is still building the box for the tile but it seems to be going well. Although we did get into it a little when I came home and he was laying down "because he had a headache" but hadn't taken any pain stuff...

I don't know what happened to my sweet little boy but I want him back. Day two of the tantrums worthy of a threenager. Still no source of the cause. Send wine. Or hard liquor. Either will do.

gingerygirl sorry J is having a difficult time. I wonder if the change in childcare recently could be affecting him. Even though it sounds like a good change for you both, it is a change none the less and he could be reacting to that. Maybe try to keep as many other things consistent while he gets adjusted, oh and wine for you.
