MH and his brother are chatting on the phone right now, it makes me so jealous. I wish I had a sibling to gossip with.
I have six siblings (plus a half brother, but we didn't really grow up together) and none of them really talk to me. Having siblings is no guarantee you'll have a friend.
DH is reading There's a Wocket in my Pocket to the girls. But he's reading it in a Scottish accent. I'm laughing so hard I'm crying.
My H was doing this the other night but with "Little Owl's Night"
Me: Why are you doing that? H: I think she really enjoys it!
Sure, H. Sure.
To be fair, as one who teaches elementary kiddos I've been known to randomly switch into a weird accent to re-capture my students' attention. For some reason when Mrs.Dub tries to give instructions normally no one listens, but if she speaks in a dramatic French accent it's CAPTIVATING.
L just took his first bottle of breastmilk! YAS! H is officially on MOTN duty *dances* and maybe H and I can have a date night now and I won't have to worry about him being hungry while I'm out! Hot cha cha!

Ten minutes until I pump again before bed and I'm stuffing my face with gourmet jelly beans H got me this week. It was an easy night to get E to sleep thank goodness. I'm so tired.

I have the door to our back deck open and there are 2 owls hooting back and forth. One of which is definitely sitting in the tree right next to the house. Between them and the peepers (small frogs) my backyard sounds like a sound machine.

We were eating strawberries for our bedtime snack. R ate all hers and came over to my plate, there was one left so I picked it up before she got to it. She starts crying and saying no no no no no. Haha.

Nailed it! Although some nights feel more like this...
Particularly Sunday nights since Monday is trash day and half the neighborhood put their cans out Sunday night.

She got the last strawberry.
Aww. She's getting good use out of that favorite word of hers!
My tongue hurts. I have geographic tongue and it causes constant burning, especially if my tongue touches anything, like my teeth, which happens ALL THE FREAKING TIME. Usually it only lasts a day or so, but it's been constant for almost 3 weeks now. 😢 I'm so over it.
Today was a nice family day but as usual I'm exhausted by the end of the weekend! We visited a new church this morning. It was nice and I think we'll probably visit there again.

You're a better mom than I. I would have ate it. 😆
Jk. Maybe...
Oh, I was totally going to. That's why I hurried to get it before she got to it. But her pitiful no's were just too cute. Haha.
Does anyone out there work full time M-F and have a partner who works a non-traditional schedule? I really need some advice on how to not be filled with resentment when I parent by myself every other weekend, and half the month I do nights by myself.
Basically it makes me hate my husband and I go back to work on Mondays utterly exhausted.
The working parents board might have some good advice 😢
