It's supposed to rain again tomorrow, and I'm seriously considering just taking the kids and going to IKEA as an activity...that way I can get some cheap picture frames to hang some of DD's art from daycare, she can hang out in Småland for a while, and we can all eat cheap lunch. Hmmm.

Have done. Well not Smaland because my kid isn't potty trained but he loved the activity boards in the cafeteria. Added bonus: ds got to test out the play kitchen before I committed to buying it!

judyblume14 enjoy your last day! And yes, I still don't feel like a grown-up. But my parents gave me power of attorney if anything happens to them! So I must be an adult.

biscotto I'm dealing with PPD again. I had it with DS too. Feel free to PM if you need to chat. You are not alone and it does get better. Hope your appointment goes well.

I was going to go to mom group this morning but it started raining and they moved it to McDonald's. Bleh. Then N slept two hours in the swing so it wasn't meant to be.

She slept eight hours! This is the second time, I just wish I could know what to expect with her. Most nights she does five. Now she's asleep on my shoulder.

biscotto, hugs lady. I'm sorry you're dealing with PPD but I hope the therapy and whatever else they suggest helps. We are here if you need anything at all.

judyblume14 good luck tomorrow!
@heybulldog55 hope you had a great day!
biscotto so many hugs to you, I hope you start feeling better soon.


It's a rainy day here. Not much happening, but I did accomplish my first back carry with L today 😱😱😱😱 (in a woven)

pibblemom I miss you. Hope things aren't too crazy!

Thank you for the tag. I think it's been a week since I've checked in and I feel bad because being back at work, plus gym plus baby and household stuff is overwhelming me a bit, so I have a hard time responding and keeping up on everyone. My usual check in time had been at night and I'm so spent I generally just pass out as soon as C is asleep.

Some updates: C is giving her grandmas a hell of a time while I'm at work or gym. She was refusing bottles, got that fixed, and now she's just generally a grumpy mess when I'm gone, which sucks because she's a DREAM most of the time when I'm home. She's funny and smiley and super talkative when I'm around (not just when I'm holding her), but it's like a switch when I leave. I can't figure it out if it's just the scents/perfumes of my mom and MIL or if she actually realizes I'm Mom and I'm gone. She is also continuing to STTN most nights, the downside to that is im fairly certain my period is about to return.

Here's a collage of pics I took for her 2 month pictures 😁. PDQ
*poof*

ETA: also, my dog does that same exact fall. We tell her "fall back" and she will flop back on us

rinny thumbs up on the back carry! I was just thinking I might be brave enough to try with N, her neck control is good enough that I'm not worried about her breathing

Do it! It wasn't as hard as I was thinking, but I got nervous and the leg passes weren't quite ideal so it only lasted about 5 min. Hopefully longer next time!
