DH has a big presentation/proposal at work so he's been busy. I'm glad it's today so he can be "present" more now lol. Today is stormy so we're gonna hang out inside.
Lately A has been very "terrible two" like. She bit her sister yesterday and when I was attempting time out she spit in my face, kicked me, and obviously wouldn't stay on the TO chair unless I held her there....twice. 😵
Also A choked on water yesterday and threw up her whole dinner. I'm hoping it's just a sensitive gag reflex. But that kinda sucks too - especially for the couch eww. At least we were at home and I was able to throw her in the tub.

It's been a long week. I was laid off last Thursday so this week has been a series of job applications, interviews, and speaking with lawyers. I am fairly certain I would not have been let go if I didn't have a baby this year which obviously really sucks, but at the end of the day I'm glad I'm out of there. Now I just hope I can find something new pretty quickly, I had a 3rd round interview today with the company I had started interviewing with before all this happened and I'm hoping that role works out.
dmorgendorffer that sucks I am sorry. I can't imagine your level of frustration and anger for being fired for getting pregnant and not really being able to prove it. I am hoping it was a door shut that opens a better opportunity for you and soon
Notuch here just two sick cranky kiddos. We are watching the Astros game 2 in the playoffs. Go Astros!
dmorgendorffer I'm sorry, that is so not right! I hope the new job prospect works out (that's what the like was for). aggiebug hope S and C get better soon!
dmorgendorffer wow, that is rough. I hope there is an awesome, family friendly position for your next job, good luck on the prospects.
lilyelayne congratulations! Hope there is nothing but smooth walking for the next nine months!
Went back to work today, tried not to cough on anyone. A is on the mend and V is pretty much healthy minus the occasional cough.
My mom is reworking her house and had decided her dining room set doesn't work anymore so have our to us today. It's a nice solid walnut set, so I'm pretty happy on the receiving end.
lilyelayne how did you tell DH? Or did he know you were testing? I'm living vicariously through you (in a non creepy way). And sticky thoughts and vibes your way!

He was with me when I tested, same as my first pregnancy. We haven’t told anyone (outside of F15 ;-) ) yet, not sure how we’re gonna do it, or when. I was 6 weeks pregnant when I found out with G; we told our families and best friends within the week. This time I’m less than 4 weeks pregnant.
dmorgendorffer Your boss's comments telling you not to come back are definitely evidence. Companies suck. Good luck on the job hunt. I forget if you've said what you do.
I'm working all this weekend. My boss and a more senior engineer have rolled over me about my broken equipment. And converting another piece of equipment while the broken one gets fixed (I said no because by the time the conversion is done the broken one will be fixed). So-so talk with the retention people. And one of my group members is going on leave for the foreseeable future.
H has also been working like crazy and is sick. But DS has used the potty 3 times at home. I owe that child cupcakes. I'm going to find a low sugar pumpkin muffin recipe for him.
Today was my nephews baptism! What a joyous day and a beautiful mass! It's been a long day (on the road by 6am and just getting home around 7) but a good one. Got to see lots of friends and family!
My sister gave the girls balloons to take home. On the highway A noticed a fly in the car and it was bothering her so H opened her window to shoo it away and N's balloon (from the other side of the car) whipped out of the window, balloon weight and all, and flew away. And the damn fly managed to stay in tje car... N was very upset. Since it was a long day and technically our fault we stopped on the way home to get a balloon at the dollar store. Not sure if that was a good parent move but we felt bad 😔
