1.) I had so much fun at the carnival last night with DD. She had no fear and rode everything with delight including the giant ferris wheel. 2.) I kept her up an hour after bedtime and she actually slept in a bit 3.) My mom is being weird again and told me today that nothing really makes her happy anymore and maybe it's just the way it is as you get older. Wtf mom, she is so dramatic at times, what am I supposed to say to that? 4.) They are opening a new European Wax center near me and today is the last day to get free waxing. I'm going to attempt to get my eyebrows done while bringing DD along since I'm solo parenting but my eyebrows are a mess. Wish me luck.
1. Peyton has been in a better mood, so hopefully this lasts. Maybe she has been really tired as she has slept an awful lot the last couple of days- even sleeping in until nearly 8 when I have been up since 5:30 🙄
2. No big plans for today. Just on the couch watching A Dog's Purpose right now. Might go to a park in a bit and play in the yard. Want to make some banana bread and will try making dough for bagels in my bread maker.
3. Going to make another hair mask for later. I made one the other day that even had butter in it! The smell bugged me but actually made my hair feel great.
Oh they are just sloppy looking because I haven't had them tended to in a few months and I have a scar over one eye that makes the hair grow in a crazy pattern around it.
1. The pedi said we should start to transition DS from the crib to a bed. I'm dreading it. 2. I'm exhausted and my cold is really bugging me. 3. I don't wanna work today.

Don't dread until you try it. I wss seriously worried and built it up in my head and then in our case it turned out to be nbd and didn't really change her sleep patterns at all.
1. My kids are trying to kill me. Dd screamed at 5:15, then needed her blankets back on. DS was up for the day at 5:45. I was up once or twice with each of them through the night.
2. Seems like nbd to have Dh gone for such a short trip and in the same time zone. Too bad he's got a longer trip again next week.

We're not psyched about moving Dd to a bed either. We've been joking that DS will probably climb out of his crib before she ever climbs out of hers.
Last week she requested a motn diaper change and now she's woken up dry 2 days in a row so I'm thinking she'll night train soon and then she'll need to be able to get out if she has to go motn. I'm sure we'll have some battles, but I guess it has to happen eventually.
1. I wish T would do another 6 hour stretch of sleep. I am so tired by the end of the day. I went to bed at 8:45 last night. MH didn't sit down with me until 8:30. I feel like I don't see him all week. 2. We have two people coming to see our apartment today. I hope they like it and rent it so we don't have to pay or fight about rent for June 3. We are going to be moving Clara to a twin bed once we are at our new place so we don't have to buy a crib mattress. I wish we could do something fancy for her bed but we don't have the money and we are only here for another year. I can't wait for our own house so I can go crazy with decorating

Ikea has bed tents for like $6 bucks if you just wanted something fun for her. Also I got DD's entire matching sheet set and comforter in Minnie Mouse for her bed for like $28 on Target website
Thanks, I don't mean to sound insensitive but she pulls this stuff every once in awhile but never does anything about it. I don't know if you remember but sometime last year she told me she wanted to die and that she felt like No one loved her. I got all upset, called my brother and my Aunt (her sister) tried to find some help for her and then she basically brushed it all off and acted like it was me was overreacting.

A bed tent? I'll have to look that up - I have no idea what that is!

I do remember. It's awful that she does that to you
1. Today is the last day my big will be a 2 year old. 2. My brother comes into town tomorrow for ds's birthday! 3. My parents get here Friday and leave Sunday early. 4. My house is not clean! Yikes!
1. So much going on. It's really hard to focus. Sat is DS1's bday party. Sun I'm doing Colorvibe 5k in the morning and then leaving for Italy in the evening.
2. I'm WFH tomorrow and have a long list of non-work things to do.
3. DS1 is excited for his party. I told him this morning that his party is this weekend and he said "my dinosaur party?! with my dinosaur cake and boons (balloons)??!"

1. Dd1 woke up on the wrong side of the bed. She is a whiny cries at every little thing mess. 2. We have speech today at 1030 then need to go grocery shopping. I'm thinking of bringing lunch for the kids to eat while we shop. It will be lunch time, and I know they will fall asleep on the way home, 3. I'm doing a car seat safety thing at a local library on June 10th. It was the only day that worked for both me and the librarian, but dh has to work that day. My sitter may or may be on vacation then as well. My next shot is our neighbor, if that doesn't work ill probably try and find someone on care.com.
1. Eliza was a chatty Kathy last night for bedtime. She got up and got a book and was reading it to herself for almost 1.5 hours. I finally went in and got her and let her sit with me in the living room so she would go to sleep. So she didn't get to sleep until 9:45, ugh!
2. My parents leave on Wed for approx 2 weeks. I have to do some of her work but also will miss them and I know the kids will also.
4. I'm sporting some extra hair product today. The little spit up an impressive amount as I was burping him. On my freshly washed, dried, and straightened hair. Silver lining is that it was in his stomach for like a minute so not curdled. Still, crunchy.
jennyinheaven @ comicSans, I'm dreading moving DS to a bed because he sleeps so well now and has no interest in climbing out. The pedi said that since he STTN, I shouldn't worry about him getting up on his own. And I'm going to have to do it eventually. I wonder if we should just take the side off of his crib and do a bedrail or just put the mattress on the floor? I'm not ready to buy a new bed yet...

I would take the side off and put a bed rail this way it's not too different. That's what we did and he likes it. I think we will make the switch to a full size bed around 4 and let him redo his room.
But you've mentioned he's tall, so he might want to switch to a big bed sooner.
bliz1712 what are you torn about with kindergarten?
1. I am dreading packing for our long weekend trip. Going away with a toddler and baby is more trouble than it's worth. 1 is so excited to go to the beach and dance at my mom's wedding though.
2. I really need to get a paycheck again. I still haven't gotten my money from the state for FMLA and probably won't until after I'm back at work. I just keep using my credit card and will pay all of that money towards it but the past couple months have been so expensive.
3. I'm tentatively excited that we've made it through the 4 month sleep regression with minimal disturbance. Yesterday and today 2 has been able to fall asleep on her own without the pacifier and her naps have been longer than 45 minutes. Really hoping I didn't just jinx myself.
scout251 she's a July bday. I made a post on parenting for more details. But my Mom is in my ear that she's such a late birthday and doesn't think she's ready
That's what we did too with our crib. Bought a bed rail and just took off the front side. Our sleep was already crappy so it wasn't really much different.
