It's 4:51am here and DS won't fall back asleep so I thought I'd start this up.
R: I have a lot of laundry to fold later today.
AW: We just paid off all of my student loans last night. It took a chunk out of our savings, but it feels so good to be debt free right now.
V: MIL is supposed to visit us today, but has not specified the time. I wish that I knew so that I could have planned our day accordingly. Now I feel like a lot of our day will be spent waiting to hear from her.
R - I still have so many returns to do from the holidays. Not exciting, but a good reason to get out of the house.
V - My little dude is a mess today, just tantruming over every little thing. Ugh.
AW - I purged most of my bathroom last night. I'm so happy about it, I'm moving on to my dresser.
edited because posted too soon
Awww... sorry your DS is having a tough time. Hopefully his day improves! In a couple months here I'm hoping to purge my closet and dresser of all my maternity and large PP clothes. Just need to lose all the baby weight first.
R- I have a craft night planned tonight. Not sure I am looking forward to it.
V- DH can't seem to get it together on Zach's schedule. He attempted to put him back to bed this morning, never fed solids, tried to keep him up too long before a nap. I love that he takes Saturday mornings so I can sleep, but I'm going to need to write this all out for him like he's a child.

R - Not sure what the R is for, maybe I should have taken a nap. We'll have a four day weekend and the in-laws visiting. Maybe we can finally get the basement room child-proofed and useable.
AW - Kid finally napped for more than 45 min and I made a leek quiche during his nap. In-law visit means that we have someone to babysit for the first time in months.
V - Annoyed that my husband added table scrapings to the overflowing trashbin and now the lid needs to be cleaned.

The R stands for random. And that's nice that your in-laws will be able to babysit your LO. It's nice to have a break sometimes.

R- I hope to watch a movie with dh, but he may be sleeping. Aw- DD started blowing kisses today and has started saying "whats that?" But in her own cute way. V- it took a little over and hour for dd to fall asleep tonight.

R- I haven't watched American idol in years, but for some reason I watched last week and now have the dvr set up to record the season.
AW- we are putting the finishing touches on the entertainment wall unit we built, and it looks amazing!
V- DS decided 5:30 was a good time to get up this morning. He fell asleep in the car on the way to church, only for my MIL to wake him up as soon as we got there.

Random - With the 3-day weekend, today is all about staying in PJs until noon, cleaning up the yard and going out to eat for dinner (no cooking for me!).
AW - I'm down nearly 2lbs and several inches this week. EEK!!!
Vent - I don't have one. I'm so happy and life is so good right now (ever felt that?!?) that I literally can't find a thing to complain about
R- I just bought so much Christmas themed cling wrap and napkins at Walmart for soo cheap! I can't wait to donate them!
Aw- my husband and I have been on a no added sugar diet for about 4 months! He is down 25 pounds and I'm down 15! Yay!
Vent- I got my first postpartum period and it is horrible! I forgot how horrible they are and its 10x worse than before the baby!
Wow, that's amazing, congratulations!! I'm on a weight-loss journey as well and cutting out refined, processed foods really helped me a lot thus far. Keep up the great work
