My mom is coming up today so she can keep e occupied when i am getting my picture done for my liscence. Last night i gave e a bath and she told the water bye when it was going down the drain.
Morning! M is still on early wake-up schedule, so she was up at 6:30. Hopefully we can soon get her back to sleeping until 7. Her head is looking good. We're keep neosporin on it and it's healing nicely.
My entire body aches from yesterday's adventure. Ouch!
We have to go to AAA so I can get my passport picture taken. Then to the bank and grocery store.
Once SO gets home from work and errands, we'll hit up a local community days fair thing.
Ive been getting some toys together to take to a kids consignment shop to sell along with the left over clothes i took a month ago. They said theyd buy them, but had too much inventory in those sizes and end of august should be good to sell them. So i hope they take them! After that im going into work to move two classrooms. Yay! /sarcasm
And i just have to whine real quick. Yesterday my right contact hurt and it felt like it was cratching my eye but i couldnt go home to take it out, now its red and im stuck in glasses and sensitive to light. I dont think the damage is too bad, but im annoyed and hoping ill be back in contacts by monday. Meh
F is with malvo 's M and was up early. So I threw on clothes and decided to tag along with h to get d from my parents and pick up a trailer.
My agenda today includes cleaning my house. It's messy plus I need to do some good dusting and cleaning under the beds/couch because it's gross. Plus we need to re-caulk the bathroom. Been putting it off to long and I can't look at the nasty caulk anymore.
Hey guys. R was up every hour until 2, then H took him downstairs and they slept inclined. I then took him back upstairs where we slept until 730. He has a cold and just can't breathe super great..
rvamama im not sure about OTC eye drops (anyone have suggestions, if there are??) But i could get antibiotic eyedrops or something. I'm just going to wait it out though. Its really not bad enough for me to spend the time and money on an annoyance, KWIM?
Dropped off P to MILs and boss texted me ahes running an hour late. So im enjoying quiet baby-free coffee time!
Im thinking I want to get my hair done for fall. Not exactly sure what, toying with the idea of lowlights underneath with subtle purple mixed in and bangs. I want to take a step back from bright blonde. Thoughts?

ruemorgan Maybe go lowlights first then do bangs later? I love your ideas and you can definitely pull it off. But-Changing color and adding bangs is a huge change all at once. Unless a huge change is what you want lol
M and I ran errands this morning and then she played outside with SO and the neighbor's daughter. I made them come in for lunch. I then held M as she drank her lunchtime sippy of milk and she passed out in my arms. That hasn't happened in so long! She's down for the count in her crib and I'm also going to take a little snooze, simply because I can.
Change of plans on the fair. Now we're doing dinner at FIL's. It's really freaking hot, so I guess that's OK.

ajacot924 have a safe flight, and enjoy the shower!!
ruemorgan I think lowlights would look great! And I second the idea of easing into too many things at once but I like the sound of purple in the bangs, you could totally rock that

babys2015 I absolutely do not want to get your hopes up as I was in the exact same situation as you and I was shattered when it was negative. But, IMO and my H's we so see a faint line. So many prayers and positive vibes it turns out for you!!!

I'm off to a bachelorette party today! Hoping I don't end up drinking too much and spending tomorrow hungover. My dad is taking Declan to the zoo later on this afternoon and apart of me is sad I'm not home to just put my pjs on and spend some alone time at home with H.
We ended up walking all around. And driving through the not so good part of town as well. The 1st place we went to get my liscence the line was out the door. Found another place i was in and out of. My mom cant handle when e cries a out something. She had given her a few different stuffed animals and they were handed back. Then a stuffed cat was handed and she cried when we put it back.
I got here okay and just laid low. My family was asking what I wanted to do and I said, "Watch TV by myself in my hotel room." Lol. I'm such an introvert and I'm enjoying the alone time.
Ok. Driving by to vent. Sorry. I know you guys will tell me if I'm crazy/being a horrible bitch. I just found out that my MIL (who has caused issues many a time in the past) has tried to invite herself on the vacation we are planning with my parents. We did Disneyland last year with the kids and my parents (H stayed home to work) but this year we are trying to plan it again with H there as well. We knew she was thinking about coming here to visit this fall. She came out last fall as well and last I'd heard she wasn't able to get the time off that she had hoped. I did overhear him mentioning that we were starting vacation planning to her just in general conversation. Not inviting or anything. So, ok. That's all I had heard or knew. In a random text today, she mentioned something about coming out in October. So I asked my H about it, and he said, oh yeah, that's when she wants to come out for Disneyland. ...WHAT?! So. Honestly, I really do not want her there. I know my parents would not want her there. But if put on the spot they would be polite and say it was fine, even though they do NOT enjoy her company and they dislike how she treats me and the kids. A little background: She's very difficult to be around and hugely self-centered. If the kids are anything less than all over her (which they often are not, since she sees them about once a year) she complains and pouts. She acts like things are fine with me but then "tattles" to my H about all the ways she feels I have slighted her. Last year when she came, one complaint was that she asked me to drive her about 25 min away to visit a friend. That friend in turn kindly told us she would drive out to pick MIL up. MIL asked me about 20 times what I wanted to do, to which I kept answering-- it's up to you. Well finally after a day of this, she asked me which would be easier, and I told her. It's easier to not drive us all on an almost hour long round trip, during my almost 6 month old's eating and nap time. Which also basically coincided with when my big kid needed to be dropped off at preschool. Apparently that was offensive and rude to "make" her friend, who offered, come get her. (There aren't even enough eye rolling emojis to use here) I know I have issues surrounding this. I hate that my H doesn't stand up for me. In his mind, she's just crazy and it's all about ignoring. He lets her talk and lets it all go. But to know she says things and he doesn't stop her or disagree/stand up for me hurts. So I know I'm sensitive about it and would just rather not be around her in general. Ever. I guess all of that run on sentence craziness was to ask. Is it not rude to invite yourself on someone else's vacation? It would probably bother me if it were just us and the kids. But I'm even more shocked that she thinks she needs to get in on a trip we are planning with my parents. They would literally NEVER consider asking that. Even if it were somewhere they really wanted to go. Or even were invited. I know they would feel like they'd be stepping on toes, or that they wouldn't want to interfere with other grandma's time with the kids. Thoughts??
LesleyEO i agree i wouldn't want ger on vacation. Your hb needs to grow a pair and tell her no. She will make things miserable for everyone on the trip.
Eta hb and i have been invited on most of his family's vacations. We never go because we dont want to deal with them.
@lesleyo I think you have every right to feel the way you do. Even if she was the perfect MIL, you don't invite yourself on someone else's vacation. I think you should tell your H that she isn't invited and maybe to smooth things over, invite her to visit another time. I'm sorry you're dealing with that. I'm sure your H doesn't want to hurt her feelings but he needs to stand up to her or she will continue to behave this way. Hugs.
LesleyEO no, it is rude for her to invite herself. My MIL pulls this same crap All. The. Time. This is exactly how she came to disney with us the last time. Super annoying. H and I dont tell MIL about any vacation plans anymore. Even ideas with no projected date in mind, we dont tell her. She has no idea im going to see H next month and were trying to keep thanksgiving discussions under the radar. That sounds horrible, because you spend thankgiving with family. But we want time for our own little family. Anyways, i have no advice but wanted to say you are NOT crazy.
