We had a rough wake up this morning - up at 5:30 cleaning dog diarrhea off our carpet. Then the other dog threw up her breakfast immediately after she finished eating. I keep checking on them on our dropcam, I'm a nervous about what we may come home to with the way the day started.
DD asks me to read her the bear book every night, which sometimes means The Very Cranky Bear, and sometimes means Goodnight Already! Or probably any other book prominently featuring a bear.
I felt very blue this morning. I felt weepy and lonely and I got a huge headache which is unusual for me. Then it happened and it all made sense - AF. I have forgotten how a non BCP period feels...so hormonal. Anyway, it's my birthday today and I feel old. But we are going out to a steakhouse for dinner! Then going to watch the cubbies hopefully win (they were just waiting to do it on my birthday) and have coconut scoop cake.
Bonus question: dd2 likes "hand hand fingers thumb" and "ten apples up on top" and I like to read her "Ann likes red" because it has her name (kinda). Dd1 likes the Llama Llama series and the Bear series by Karma Wilson (those are cute and fun to read if you're looking for new books). But right now they are into the Fall/Halloween seasonals.
kartish, I have given up on keeping days straight. THey are just a jumble at the moment! dmorgendorffer, oh gosh that is never fun! I hope they got it out of the way already and you don't have any messes when you get home dreemkin, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! !! what a crappy day for AF to show up.
We had a busy morning headed out early to try and find some leggings (what is up with Kohls and Old Navy not having any navy blue basic leggings??), then to the library for story time with some friend and chick fil a for lunch and play. I had so much energy when we got home I planned to be productive during nap time. Now I just want to nap
Bonus answer: Umm depends on the day she often requests The Little Blue Truck Leads the Way, or her "amen book (a book of prayers we have), or Click Clack Moo.

Ds doesn't care what book but he wants to flip through them himself which makes it very hard to read and... How are we going to get to 1000 books before k!

Visited DH's grandmother this morning as we usually do on Tuesday. Then G and I both got our hair cut. It's his first big boy hair cut, and while he's adorable I'm sad. I miss his curls and his cute ponytail already. His hair was getting scraggly though so the baby stuff needed to go.
Bonus: G has several favorite books. Right now absolute favorite is Noisy Trucks. My favorites to read to him are Aesop fables (we have a book of them in his room that I read while he nurses) and Saturday Night at the Dinosaur Stomp. I like reading Hands Are Not for Hitting because it does seem to help him remember not to hit.
I was being moody today but after lunch and keeping myself busy with chores I'm in a better mood. V is napping and I'm about to start grating all of our ginormous zucchini for zucchini bread that we are baking for the homeless shelter.
V loves his "moo" books, which is either Mr Brown can moo, can you? or Click Clack Moo. He goes through phases though and is getting very picky about which books we read to him. We used to read Roald Dahl books or from books of poetry at night, now there's no way he'd agree to that sadly. Silly boy.
dmorgendorffer are your doggies any better?! aggiebug how about target or Walmart? lilyelayne yay for haircut! I bet it's adorable. kartish that is so nice that you do that!

I left work early to come check on the dogs and beat my H home incase there was a big mess. It ended up being the right call... there was a huge mess to clean and I ended up running Max to the vet before they closed. He's on antibiotics, we picked up a fresh vial of insulin for him, and we're keeping him settled in his crate to minimize further messes. Hopefully he responds well and he's doing better tomorrow.
dreemkin, targets in my list tomorrow. S is a weird size at the moment amd have I have struggled in the past with target pants/ knew how ON andjumping bean fit so that's why I went there.
The book DD always brings us is her animal picture book. I think she just likes it because we do the animal sounds. For other books, she doesn't really have a favorite. She just picks a random book off her shelf. But she would much rather read the book to me. I read the first page or 2 then she takes over turning the pages and jabbers. It's cute.
Ughhhh I've got a head cold. DH said he would go and get me some meds but he's still sitting on his ass and I want to punch him in the nuts bc I can't breath through my nose.

Ten in the Bed, Dinosaur Dig, and a puppy counting book are the big favorites. Ten out of Bed isn'the as exciting as Ten in the Bed, but Penny Dale seems to be his favorite author. Eric Carle has a minibook set with words, numbers, and colors that he likes as well.
