1. I slept better last night but my headache is still slightly there and I am still so tired. 2. 39w today. 3. When will he be here! ...Sorry my life is boring right now.
1. I am super tired too meggypoo1- but mine is from needing a break and a vacation. I am burnt out.
2. My friend might come over after work tonight. Up in the air as to how late some work dinner goes for him. He was in Nova Scotia visiting family and I miss him.
3. Day off tomorrow and plan on taking Peyton to this trampoline park she went to with daycare. Hope she has a blast.
1. Went out with my mom yesterday and saw Beauty and the Beast. Much fun.
2. Also went shopping for clothes because I needed new pants. I've dropped two sizes since last summer! I'm at a pre DD1 size. I have much excite.
3. How come the kids are always better for DH? He got over three hour naps from both of them and they played together nicely until bedtime.... 4. We're supposed to have a tea party at my Grandma's this week. I'm sure DD1 will have a blast. She loves accessories and dress up and every drink she has right now is "tea"
1. I'm having some wierd feelings in my stomach. At first I thought they were phantom kicks (I had them between DD1 and Eliza) but I counted them last night for 1.5 hours and got to 27. No joke it literally feels like when you are pregnant early on and just starting to feel baby move. It's super creepy.
2. Had SD's band concert last night. Gets boring when your kid is on stage for 10 minutes of a 1 hour concert.
3. I'm trying to change my Directv bill. Why do they only offer decent package prices to new customers?

1. Wow. I just had the nicest, most helpful and supportive person ever answer my call when I had to call my health insurance to ask about coverage which was a call I'd been dreading making. Thank you, universe!
2. I stayed home today (after care instructions from amnio said rest for 24 hours so even though I haven't even had a cramp I decided to go with that recommendation) and convinced h to take dd to daycare (first time - it's quite far, like 35+ minutes, out of his way) because I can neither rest not work nor make phone calls when she is home. Now I need to be good and get some work done since report cards are due Friday and stuff that I was thinking would get scheduled for beginning of next week may actually have to be tomorrow or Thursday.
3. I really want to indulge in some tv - usually I watch my shows when dh is away but last week I was too exhausted so only watched half an episode - but gotta be good and do some work. I also was craving bacon and thinking of going into town to get a yummy wrap for lunch (after the 24 hours is up - or 23 at least) but probably won't have time. Boo.
1. DH and I are trying to lose weight. I'm trying to not be ridiculously strict because I know I won't stick to it. I'm tracking on MFP. I'm finding it hard to not think about food all the time. 2. DH is being a pain lately. He's not helping out with DS at all. Last night he just sat on the couch on his phone while I played with DS, got his dinner, cleaned up, etc. His response when I complain is "oh well." This morning he was running late, which then made me late because we only have one bathroom and I got an "oh well." Thanks for making my life easier... 3. I'm taking a PTO day next Monday to relax and go shopping. Can. Not. Wait.
1. My baby is turning 1 in 2 weeks. 2. It's snowing. It should not be snowing. 3. DH is traveling today and the kids were up a combined total of 7 times last night. So sleepy.
1) my mom is watching my youngest on his sick day 2) H replaced our toilet that broke 3) lunch in 10 minutes- I can make it! Baby was napping this morning I made myself eggs with spinach and milk- this is a nutrient super punch of everything I am deficient in. I've been trying to do it as many mornings as possible.
lrmrtn it's kinda crazy you have to use a day off work to get any rest or help. Your kid isn't a baby anymore- so I'm sure he notices. My kid will immediately point out who is not in the room or not playing with him or eating at the table since we are normally all together. Your H needs a kick in the butt. It's not oh well. I know you know this but you need to find a way to communicate with him. He is going to regret how he is acting one day.
mary97, I take DS to a salon that is specially setup for toddlers. He sits in a car and watches TV and the stylist is great with him. I'd highly recommend finding somewhere like that if you think she will be scared at a regular salon.
1) DS has a virus, but no fever and no puke so off to daycare he went. 2) It's supposed to snow tomorrow. I'm not happy about this 3) I got invited to a friends baby showing in Boston. I'd love to go but I don't want to drive all the way there (7hours) with DS and I'm not sure if he's invited anyway. And I'd have to find a hotel so expensive. I guess i'll just send a gift in the mail.

I'll have to look to see if there is one around me. Thanks for that suggestion. She probably would be ok with having tv to distract her.
Warning: we take DS to one of these places and he still screams the entire time. Luckily, they are used to it so know how to work fast and still get an even cut with flailing kids.
4. This baby kinda needs a haircut, but I'm scurred.
DD has yet to have a haircut. She freaks out over washing her hair at home, nervous around strangers until she has some time with them so I never took her. Her hair is really long but uneven so we need to just bite the bullet and take her.
Whaaaaat? No haircut in almost 3 years? Dd has had so many. Her first was around 11 months. She does so well, but she's shy and careful and listens. The boy has more hair than she did at this point and it's all sorts of weird. He does not have the same demeanor, does not sit still ever, and cries at loud noises.

I just typed up a whole response and then my computer went funky so I lost it... but the bottom line is this is not like DH at all. He's usually much more hands-on with DS. I know he's tired, but so am I. If it continues, we're going to have to have a serious conversation.
1. DH won't be home at all tonight. He has been working really long and crazy hours and I'm not sure how much more I can take. I had a mini breakdown Friday because I'm so tired of being on all the time.
2. All I can think about is going to Florida, it's going to be a super long month.
3. My calf/ ankle is finally starting to feel better but is still sore after a long day.

we haven't had dd's hair cut either. H keeps saying we should but I'm afraid she will lose the pretty curls at the ends (which I love because I have the straightest of straight straight hair). Plus at the current length it is much easier to do in ponytails or braids than when it was shorter.

With all due respect, have the conversation now. It's always easier to head things off than to wait for them to fester. If I have learned one thing from therapy, it's that communication is key and not just communication when things are bad and you just can't take anymore. Communicate, communicate, communicate. All. The. Time.

1. Our schedule is insane. I will be super excited if we make all appts this week on time.
2. Babysitter is having car trouble this morning and is late. Ugh.
3. I got Dh hooked on F*ck Thats Delicious on the Vice channel. It's a stupid show, but it's happy. There is no drama, no sad, just dudes traveling, rapping and eating food. I used to be obsessed with Fantasy Factory on MTV for the same reason.

I know, I just hate confrontation. And it will likely turn into a fight if I do it after work because we are both exhausted. But it has to be done...
