When W had his first wakeup at 6am, I was thrilled and saddened. My boobs woke me up just a little before he did which was nice but I should have nursed him on my right side instead of my left. My right side is me awkward to pump while nursing and I probably would've gotten more off the other side. I was also a little sad because it meant I couldn't go back to bed since I need to head to my brother's house soon to watch his kids for a couple hours. So now I'm going to be tired and surrounded by 5 under 4

I'm struggling to stay awake. Thankfully, my brother's twins are still asleep in their cribs and W just settled down for a nap so it's just me and the 3 year olds.
I hope we've turned a corner in the leap. After not sleeping and wanting to be held all day and eating all day; today she's been napping in her bouncer all morning.
We had to go to the base this morning after DS1's speech appt and the president was on his way in. We left right after he landed and got on his helicopter to head out to the ship that he's speaking at.
C is sleeping in her RNP for the first time in a while. I also got a ton done, cleaned off the dining room table where I'm working, and got some actual work done too. My moms here now and I'm going to take a shower before Ms FussyPants wakes up
I onboarded with LLR a few weeks ago, and I'm just waiting on my call right now. I need to get my LLR collection together and start taking pictures so when I get my call I can start promoting my page for my launch. Which means I actually have to look like I give a shit what I look like on most days and not the living dead lol.

So we made it. B had a poopslosion 15 minutes into the flight. I ended up throwing his pants and socks away because they were coated in poo. There was poop everywhere. Everywhere. All over changing table and even on the bathroom wall. Oh and of course all over me as well. I ended up sponge bathing him in the tiny ass airplane bathroom. It was a literal shit show.
Then DS has an EPIC meltdown as soon as we got off the plane. It was bad. So, so bad. I was close to tears. I wanted to destroy shit and scream. Just so tired and frustrated.
All is well now. So happy to be home and can't wait to spend as much quality time as possible with my family. I'll do well to check in every now and again. Have a great night ladies!

I just had a CTJ type chat with BF about the amount of time he spends on his computer after work while R is awake. And the lack of help I'm getting with F.
I hope he at least thinks about what I said. Unfortunately he can't put it into practice as both kids fell asleep by 6

So everytime H goes to target he has to pick u some kind of outfit for E this time it was onesies. I would not have guessed it would be him buying all of these cute outfits.
Mil came by for awhile I went out and got my hairs cut. I feel so much better too I just got it cut short. Luckily we are getting responses to our nanny as but H wants me to conduct all of the phone interviews because he is at work all day. I'm just really in a bad place about all of this and I don't know if I trust my judgement. H is all like go with your gut. It doesn't help. 😣
peaseblossom55, MH does the same thing every time he goes shopping. I never expected him to love buying "girly" clothes. He is responsible for way more pink than I am.
I can't help much with the nanny situation other than commiseration. I keep putting off touring daycares because I'm pretending like I'm not going back to my office in a few weeks. I've been working from home and I briefly thought about bringing the pnp to work since it's just me (and the dogs) in the office, but I know how much work I dont get done here with her, so I can't imagine it being better away from home.

I'm sorry you in denial too. Each steps closer forces me to acknowledge I am going back to work and it sucks so so bad.

We left town at 4:45 this morning, only 45 min late which is doing pretty good for my in-laws. It's been two hours and the coffee is wearing off. My FIL is finally awake so maybe I'll be able to hop in back and get some sleep. We will see.
I usually don't start putting C to bed until 9 and she falls asleep around 10pm most nights. Tonight she was super cranky with no obvious reason so I put her to bed and she fell asleep before 8. I'm fully expecting lots of wakeups but praying for a really good night.
