My brain says it must be the weekend. O decided that we should get up for the day at 5. We've been getting up earlier every day and naps are getting significantly shorter. Is this how sleep regressions work? I'll be pouring the coffee directly into my eyes today. What's going on in your lives?
Morning! Even though it's only a three day work week for me, it's felt insanely long. Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday and I can hang out at home with my favorite short guy. He was extra snuggly and clingy this morning, so with the super cold weather, I'm hoping I can convince him to just do lots of cuddling tomorrow. Which won't happen, but it's my dream I'm hanging onto for now. So for now I'm just enjoying the quiet and hot coffee.
Morning. Another cold day here. When I woke up it was 5* with a feels like of -11. Not as bad as some of our northern friends, but colder than what I would like. We have Cs trial swim lessons today and then hopefully getting him signed up until May. Lunch date after swim lessons and back home for nap (and hopefully mommy can get lots of work done.) after nap and snack I need to run into the shop/office for a little while. C can work on rearranging the auto part shelves while we are there (that's his favorite activity!)

Morning! LBB ended up in our bed again last night. Everytime I went to get back into bed beside him, he'd scream out some random phrase like Steve Carrell in 40 year old virgin.
Happy Thursday! We have all been up since 5:15 as well. I'm on coffee cup number 2 and the kiddo is at daycare already having breakfast. I'm in the office this morning and at an install this afternoon which I'm totally fine with because I needed a break from the incessant whining that has been happening lately.
You guys with that -number weather..nope! I was like oh it's only going to be low 60's today and put C in long sleeves and a hoodie jacket and blanket in the car hahaha #southernweatherproblems
+1 to waking up at 5 with a little monster! I was able to go for a run this morning, make breakfast, take a shower, do my hair, and now I'm waiting in the dermatologist office! I'm really scared they are going to try and put me on a biologic drug. They really scare me. I'm also getting a mani pedi today! Woot! All in all, should be a mostly good day!

LOL at how you're dressing your LO for low 60's! The first time it hits the 60s here, I can guarantee you you'll see people in shorts. It's currently 15 F and feels like 2 F. But then, it's all relative, because in the fall when the weather just starts to dip after the summer, the 60's do feel like hoodie weather. Now though, I'd pretty much kill for them.
Morning ladies! We arrived home at 2 am and the kids still felt it necessary to wake up at their usual time. It's cold outside, I have an entire house to pack, and we are out of coffee. Take me back to Mexico.

Way to go michyme123! That inspires me to try to get back into the routine. I think I'll do a few weeks of Bikini Body Mommy after bedtime until 6.0 becomes available for free.
I think M got a cold sore but I'm not completely sure that's what it is. The corner of his bottom lip is slightly red and looks like he bit it. It hasn't gotten bigger though from yesterday so I'm not sure. No fever or anything so there's not much I can do at this point for it?
Also cold here today. I'd love to have a 60 degree day. Heck I'll take above freezing! We're meeting up with a friend for lunch today. She had her baby a week after L was born, so it will be cute to see the two of them together.
I'm pretty proud of myself as well. One of my resolutions was to track my calories each day. I've been tracking for 8 days straight and haven't cheated at all. There's some days that I've gone over a bit, but I know my portions and general intake of calories is smaller seeing it written out!
Morning! DS was up THREE time lastnight. I think our asshole neighbors woke him up the first time. The second time, I think he was sleep walking because he peed in our master bathroom trashcan, and the third time he thought "it was wake-up time!" LOL nope, dude. Go back to bed.

I half woke up when H was getting dressed this morning and could not for the life of me figure out where he would be going at 7 am on a Saturday. It's apparently only Thursday.
I'm sorry pghtruelove, all my hope that the doctor is wrong. Hang in there and keep us posted.
I got my planner last night I haven't written in it yet because I'm waffling on what color pen to use as my main color, black or blue. The struggle is real.
michyme123, proud of you for your progress, that sounds amazing!
pghtruelove, FX that its nothing. Try to keep yourself distracted?
Just a regular Thursday. Shortly going to go return some clothes I got H for Christmas that he did not like because he is super picky. Not going to waste the time and effort trying to buy him clothes again anytime soon.
tjanca22 good job with the tracking! That's my downfall. I lasted 2 days and felt very overwhelmed with it. I find it easy with general things (like a slice of toast with peanut butter), but I get very overwhelmed when it's dinner and a mix of many things. If I want to really start losing weight I know I need to do better at this.
To make it easier on myself, I usually just ballpark dinner. MFP actually has a lot of stuff in it's library, and so I'll type in "homemade chili" and try to approximate as close to what I know I'm eating as possible. My counts are probably off sometimes, but for me it's the act of seeing it written in print, and not wanting to have to put in 200 cal of nonsense, that keeps me on track, rather than needing to know exactly how many calories I consumed.
This is what I've been doing too! I also estimate high on things. If I eat a tablespoon and a half of something I'll track it as 2T to be on the safe side. That way I know I'm covered.

Thanks everyone! I go back next Friday to get my stitches removed and they said they should have my results then.
I have Psoriasis and one of the places I have it is over the bridge of my nose, which my dr says is very uncommon unless you have lupis. I also have a lot other symptoms but I can attribute them to other heath problems. So I'm hoping it's just all coincidence. She said that she's feeling very positive about it because I'm not light sensitive which is a huge symptom. Thanks for keeping me in your thoughts!!!

I know your pain. I got H 5 articles of clothing between his birthday and Christmas and had to return all of them.
I'm doing the work of two people here today but the one was asked of me as a personal favor and with a huge compliment attached, so I don't mind as much. Plus it's kept me off my phone except for short bursts, which was my goal this year!
I wish I could exercise. I can't do anything until the 16th at minimum.
Not terrible. I forget I'm injured until I do something like pick up LO or do something where I have to move my arm (like getting dressed/undressed is torture!). This sling is annoying me now so I must be feeling better now, right? Haha.

I'm sore from my workout yesterday. It's too cold to run with T in the stroller, so I've been lifting more. Good for me, but ouch.
T was grumpy all night, got up too early, fussed at me all morning unless I let him "help" me bake for MOPS, and wouldn't fall asleep at my parents' house, so he started naptime at about 2:15.
DH asked me what my dinner plan was I told him I had a butternut squash. He wasn't impressed. So I got out some pork sausage, and now I'm trying to think of what to do with it.
