I was going to do some errands this morning but I'm drowsy so we're watching tumble leaf and a documentary on arctic wolves. My girls are into learning about animal facts. We read all the info at the zoo too. They get that from me 😁 The more you know! Wolves (or wolfies as N calls them) are amazing, beautiful, animals that are selfless when it comes to raising their pups and doing what's best for their pack ❤
M is for muffins? DD and I made some really good blueberry muffins yesterday - a few to keep for now, and some to freeze for post-baby snacks. they're so good, i really wish i'd doubled the recipe!

My sister's MIL died this weekend. She and her fiancee are trying to get emergency custody of his nieces (his mom had adopted them) while the family figures out where they go long term. The girls are with their mom right now, but she can't care for them long term. They're running into a lot of logistics issues because they can't find very much information on what to do when a sole guardian dies. I may post on Parenting to see if anyone there has advice I can pass on to my sister and her fiancee.
seamonster what a sad situation, T&Ps for the family. Hopefully things can get settled quickly for the kids sake. If they were legally adopted, did the mom leave a will dictating who was to care for them?

An old one from years ago naming sister's fiancee. She refused to officially update things or name power of attorney to anyone and do any directives even as she was battling breast cancer and then was hospitalized for a heart attack (she died after heart surgery). But there had been discussion over where the girls would go since things had obviously changed since she first adopted the girls and it would be hard for sister and her fiancee to take all three as they range from elementary to high school aged. They feel like they could handle one and maybe two, but not all three unless it meant the girls would be in foster care otherwise.
seamonster I'm sorry for this troubling time for sister and family. I don't have any knowledge of these types of things. T&Ps. agm04 you had me at muffin! And great book rec! Thanks
LO stayed home today with dh. She threw up on the dinner table last night and again in her crib. Then of course the diarrhea explosion in the crib in the morning. She still has a little fever but I'm hoping it's gone in the morning.
I took DS to the Dr yesterday because his runny nose has been going on for a month, his cough was getting worse, and he'd complained about his ear hurting this weekend. Ear infection and possibly sinus infection. He's on antibiotics now. At least it's only twice a day so daycare doesn't need to give any.
