So Clara has been on a mommy do everything kick. Tonight though, she wants daddy. Where is daddy? Traveling. Epic meltdown until I called him again and she could tell him goodnight and that she loved him.
We do this when H travels. We call when we are doing bedtime and put him.on speaker, seems to help. Sorry she had a meltdown.
She just got off Skype with him when this was going down!! She was just pissed at me because I put her in her pjs she wanted, gave her socks to wear but took her slippers away. 🙄 She she just wanted to go to bed but then would cry and the ignore me when I went back into her room because she needs daddy. She had the saddest face I have every sense when she realized daddy couldn't come to her room. Thankfully he answered his phone and she looked so happy to talk to him! Might have to do it again tomorrow.

Dh's tablet isn't working properly right now and he's being pissy about it. And apparently me asking if he wants me to take a look at it is me being bossy.

😌 poor kiddo.
James acts a fool when daddy is gone. Tantrums of epic proportions. Phone calls don't really work anymore. Dh will be home tonight, a day early! Woot!

Damn. So sorry that phone calls don't work. Woot for a day early though!!
Georgia is freaking out already about the weekend. Predicted to be highs in the 30's and lows in the high teens. Possible snow. I'm not freaking out - I just don't want to be cold!
I came out of the store today and a guy told me he hopes I'm getting prepared for the snow. I told him I think I can handle it. You would think a blizzard was coming. I'm more worried about the cold too.

I used to think Shannon Doherty was just a washed up 90's starlet. But I follow her on Facebook and her posts about her cancer treatment break my heart and really make me see her differently. I really hope she beats cancer ❤️
Omg the baby has the cold from hell. He is waking up at night like a newborn but it's worse because he's screaming and miserable and pissed off he can't sleep. Mommy is pissed off too. I don't know how much more I can take.
I have successfully pissed off Clara again this morning! Poor girl wanted to just sleep and wait for daddy and then she dropped the last part of her waffle somewhere on the way into daycare. Sigh. No hug no kiss. It's ok.
I just signed DS up for soccer. I wonder how much it will resemble soccer and how much it will resemble a bunch of two year olds running aimlessly with a soccer ball somewhere in the vicinity. I'm thinking the latter... But we need an indoors activity to keep DS busy on weekends in the winter.
DD did the indoor in the fall. It was a bunch of two year olds sorta following along with drills and such they didn't play actual games. She loved it though was so proud of her soccer shirt and it was a good Saturday activity to keep her busy and get her tired.

You have my sympathy. Most of my mornings are some version of this except that he wants endless hugs and kisses and won't let me leave.

Ugh I woke up at 2 am with the worst stomach pain, throwing up and in the bathroom since then. DD just wants to play and I have to work tonight, need it to stop now
Exhausted. The baby has decided sleep is the devil and is up for 1-2 hours every night. And then I have to be up with the toddler because DH has to go to work.

I had a version of this on Monday. I'm sorry.
Thanks trying to push through it, drinking all the pepto.
DH called me from the car this morning with DD. She was acting up this morning and he does onto say that it's my fault because I put her to bed too late and I give in to everything she wants instead of letting her cry.... umm ok DH. She fights you in the morning because you're a pushy jerk to her but thanks for throwing me under the bus this morning and if you really feel that way then feel free to jump in and help the F out!
Is it Monday yet? I have the day off all alone and I scheduled a massage.

We haven't heard back about Dh's interview from last week yet, but he now has an interview tomorrow at another place in our hometown. Im trying not to get too excited, but its hard not to.
I am freaking out about the cold weather in the South only because I agreed to go to an outdoor wedding on Saturday and the high is 44. Was looking for something warm to wear this weekend and stores here are putting out their swimsuit displays already so I'm pretty much SOL.

meggypoo1 You are not alone in Clara's behaviour. Peyton is doing all that stuff too every day when I am trying to get ready and out of the house and she keeps asking where Daddy is. This drives me insane as I have to say the same thing all the time.

Me- Where? At his house, he doesn't live here.
P- Why?
Me- Head desk smack. Every.Single.Time.
Oh that's 12 million times worse than what I have going on. I am so sorry.
meggypoo1 No, not worse. Just different in an annoying way
She also keeps asking where Nana and Grandad are and just yesterday was listing all of the people she likes and misses. It was really cute.
I think they are just now at an age to start to grasp that people are actually doing different things in different places when we aren't with her. She keeps saying I am at work now, where before she truly had no clue.
Hopefully, a phase that will end soon (the behaviour part around missing people I mean)

DS has started doing this too. Every morning: "Daddy not here. Daddy at work." And randomly "Grammie not here. Grammie at home with Misty (her dog)."

Yeah she has been doing this for a while and just added nana, auntie xx, and her cousins into the mix. But she has been all about mommy do it for months and now all of a sudden she needs daddy to do it all but daddy isn't here. It has been a while since he traveled and hasn't been around when she got up or when she goes to sleep. I also haven't dropped her off in over a year. I think she is confused and at this age knows he is away but maybe fearful he isn't coming but - not just like ok he works during the day and then is home.
