Fridayyyyy

[blueskiessmiling]

Rainy morning = DD slept until 7. A full 2.5 hours later than yesterday's wake up. Hallelujah.

I think we may try an open gym this morning. TBD.

At work for a meeting- the rest of my family was still sleeping when I left so I tried getting dressed in the dark. Normally I do pretty well but today when I went to zip up my boots I see that I accidentally grabbed my Halloween legging to wear under my dress instead of the plain black. Soooo happy I noticed before I left the house!!

Rainy day here, too. I just woke H up at the time he usually leaves for work.
A smoke detector died around 11:30 last night which made the dog bark. Of course it was the one outside of O's room. I could not figure out what was going on especially since H was still up. Like wtf is the dog barking and you're doing nothing about it?! There are three different alarms in that area so we had to figure out which one was actually beeping. Carl was not helpful.
We did figure it out and O didn't make a single peep.
Apparently I get to hang out at home today until H's new phone is delivered. Then it's groceried. That's all.

Morning!

Catching up on here before doing some cleaning while the doctor has a surgery this morning.

I was going to take the kids to the fire station tonight because they are showing "Angry Birds" outside on a screen, but it's going to be pretty chilly and I don't know that I want to sit outside for that. I know DS would love it, and may take him if DH is not going out with a friend tonight.

[erbear]

H slept with lo on the floor last night (he made a bed of blankets and pillows), so we all got some sleep. We haven't left Virginia yet, though, and I am not looking forward to this trip in the rain!

Morning!

We leave for our mini trip today! H has a conference starting Sunday so we're going up early to get settled in and have a day to hang out tomorrow with us and maybe some friends and Sunday with some family I have there before his stuff starts. Then while he's at his thing Monday I get to hang out with sugarkissed and girls! Wee!

It'll also be DD's first trip to Edmonton and I think our longest road trip with both of them. But I'm not too worried about it, just looking forward to being there!

[tjanca22]

Morning! Not much going on here. DH is working until tomorrow so we're just hanging out at home and will go grocery shopping at some point.

E just went down for a nap. It was really sweet. I was reading books to him on my lap and he got really quiet so I knew he was getting tired. After I finish the book, E turns in my lap and says ni-ni and pats the top of my head! I ask him if he wants to go night, night so he climbs down off my lap and walks into his room. Sure makes that 5am wake up worth it...almost.

[alayne926]

Sweet!! A drug rep just dropped this off for me!

[alayne926]

And so sorry that's huge....that was from Tapatalk...I'll see if I can edit it down.

I got distracted this morning by finally starting to do Christmas shopping, but now I need to try to focus for the rest of the day.

[alayne926]

Widget123, I need to start. I also have DS's birthday in November.

[sugarkissed]

Hooray tiffbot, we are so excited! Drive safe! Perfect weather.

Circuit class this morning and then I promised A that we'd go to the mall. She's been asking for a couple of weeks. She mostly just wants to go to the food court. I'm desperately looking for a nice plaid blanket for Christmas mini shoots but they are surprisingly difficult to find.

[veggiemo]

Morning! My mom is putting my kids to bed tonight while H is at work and I'm out for a friend's birthday. She hasn't done this yet, should be interesting! I wrote her out a list of instructions and even drew a diagram of how to put the blankets around LO. So ridiculous. But this is not me being a helicopter parent, I just want it to go easily for HER!

sugarkissed, haha, what does she like at the food court?

[heartofglass]

We got about an inch of snow yesterday and overnight. I think it will stay this time since the ground is frozen. Getting breakfast for everyone then headed to town. H has a chiro appointment and I need to do some grocery shopping. I wish we had the money for another. I've never had to share a vehicle and it sucks.
Is anyone here using chat books? I saw it last night. I'm signing up and getting books back until A was born.

sugarkissed could you get a large piece of fabric? They would probably have a huge selection right now season wise.

[heartofglass]

veggiemo I would probably do the same thing. No one else has ever put A to bed...

[veggiemo]

heartofglass, I should have also added that I won't see my mom today, otherwise I probably would have told her a lot of this stuff in person. H was home when she came to pick them up for the day and I won't be returning home between work/birthday party.

[pghtruelove]

erbear the pictures that your H posted of LO killed me. They made my morning!
J's face rash from fifths came in this morning.m, but she's in much better spirits.
My sister is going to come stay with me while my gram is in the hospital so she doesn't have to be home alone. She grew up and lived with my grandparents so she's having a hard time about my pap.
Hoping things just calm down around here.

[wegrowsheep]

Apparently kicking off the weekend with a yeast infection. Fuck.

Nothing super exciting going on today, but tons on my weekend to do list. Cleaning out chicken coop, planting garlic, storing squash. Hopefully it doesn't rain!

[jessila]

My mom had mentioned O's nose being a little runny this week. It's going non-stop. It keeps getting to his mouth and he panics.
Oh. Super exciting. While he ate snack this morning, I cleaned the fridge. Not sure the last time this happened. I keep opening it and wishing the rest of my house was that clean.

[jillywilly]

pghtruelove, it always feels to me like bad things happen in waves in life. I really hope your current wave ends and things calm down for you soon!

[jillywilly]

I'm watching DS fight his nap right now while also procrastinating cleaning, because all I really want to do is nap right now. But we have some of H's family coming over tomorrow and they haven't seen the house yet, and the current state is a complete disaster. So I'll get to it... In another couple minutes.

[holliberry28]

Been in the ER with my mom since this morning. Waiting on cat scan results to figure out if her shortness of breath is from the chemo. We went to a hospital in Long Island instead of Manhattan and the care is so much better. Her doctor forgot to run her tumor markers last time and he has been so negligent, we are thinking to switch again to the oncology dept in L.I. I'm so tired.

[alayne926]

holliberry28, oh no!! Keep us updated!

[Bluedaisy]

Hugs holliberry28

[sugarkissed]

veggiemo, It's the only place that she gets french fries and fruit smoothies. Haha.
heartofglass, Smart!! I didn't even think about that.
holliberry28, Sending hugs. I hope everything is okay, glad to hear you are getting better care there at least.

[veggiemo]

Hugs holliberry28.

[tiffbot]

holliberry28 sorry to hear that, hope she's ok soon

[Widget123]

T&P for your mom holliberry28
