Also I just looked at the weather and we are supposed to get a monster snow storm on Monday night. They are saying 18-24 inches. Now they've got my hopes all up for a snow day on Tuesday.
Ick! One of my coworkers mentioned that on our way out yesterday. It'll make getting to my dentist appointment very fun Tuesday morning
Home. Sick. Made my throat ten times worse by arguing with my husband after i argued with my mom and basically didnt stop her from leaving my house. Fun times.
Hope you feel better soon! What happened with your mom?

I had to get DD down, then shower, and then DS came home from eating at my ILs. We had some quality time and I just got him in bed.
Watching figure skating over here (DH is still working outside) and watching a few minutes of Mirror Mirror during commercials. At one time I really wanted to see that movie, but now that I'm neck deep into OUAT I don't want to ruin the ideal Snow White storyline.
Right now I'm having tea and watching Downton Abbey.
I had a really nice day today. I went to a sorority meeting. I'm really excited about some of the community outreach events we have planned over the next year. Afterwards I went to a birthday lunch at a Mexican restaurant for my cousin. I had some awesome guava margarita and some delicious cheso. DH took KJ to an indoor inflatable play park with our friend and his twins. They also took the kids to Chickfila for lunch. He said KJ was really good and they had fun.

We have a breadmaker but DH is the one that uses it. He makes this delicious chocolate chip zucchini bread...yum.
DH is putting LO down. I still have a sinus infection so I took a long shower and am now in my pjs, trying to figure out if I want oce cream.* I think I just want to watch OUAT in bed til I fall asleep.
*Not immediately wanting ice cream at all times is a sign of how crappy I feel.

Daaaaaammmmn. We haven't had that here in a couple years!
Fun fact: It has been over 1400 days here since we have had an inch of snow at one time. (That is unusual.)

Holy cow. You'd have to call the National Guard for us. We got 9-12 inches last winter and my area shut down for daaaaaayyyyysssss. I didn't see my mail carrier for 4 days.

I'm babysitting. But not really. I mean, I am. It's the boys that live behind us, the sons of my babysitter. I've been their babysitter since they were born (they will be 10 and 13 this year). Their parents went to dinner so they came for dinner and to play. They are pretty much playing with M while I watch them. It's kind of like them babysitting M while I relax! Lol

DH and I went to target today. They had Breyer's girl scout cookie ice cream. We couldn't choose between the thin mint and the samoas - so we got both. I'm enjoying a massive bowl of ice cream at the moment :-)
Holy cow. Finally sitting down for once today. I got so much done while DH had M! E must have just had a growth spurt because she ate nonstop for two days and now she's slept all day. She's in her swing right now just staring at me lol
DH and I are going to sit outside by a fire with some wine and the golden Texas sheet cake I made today and just relax. Once we get the girls down, which means I have to wait for another couple of hours. But I'm excited! DH is happy because he gets to make a fire and I'm happy because I get cake. Win win.
I just posted all of my sellable (word?) Maternity clothing that I'm not still wearing on a FB buy/sell site. It's really sad. M's leftover clothes that I haven't given away are next.
This would probably make me cry. I'm not looking forward to that part.
+1 We have a friend who is having a little girl in May, so I'm going through all our NB stuff to give to her. I may or may not want to just keep everything - but I have to force myself to only keep a couple things. Otherwise I would have zero room in our house!

Today was just a big build up of things. The final thing was that she was sitting on the floor on the area rug. She was in the middle blocking Js path to me and to his toys. He was trying to get to me and she was huffy about having to move. Then she commented about how she wasnt allowed to sit in Js spiderman floor chair. Nobody told her that she wasnt allowed to sit in it. I told her that she may be better off sitting closer to the edge of the rug instead of in the middle so J can get by. Well youd think i told her to go eff herself. She got all pissy about it and started making comments about going home. Me being sick and pissy and so over it said go home then. There really is way too much backstory for you to fully understand. You just cant talk to my mom. She takes everything personally. If i said "wow i cant believe how cloudy it is today" her response would be something like "well what do you want me to do?! I cant do anything right!" Ummmmm calm down woman! You aren't responsible for the clouds in the sky.
I exercised great self-discipline this evening by not texting DH "I fucking hate you right now" even though I really wanted to as both kids were screaming and nothing was apparently wrong with either of them except that it was bedtime. I mind less when he's gone for work, but this weekend is a hobby weekend, so he gets to go hang out with his friends while I sit here wishing I had a time consuming hobby that required regular overnight travel.
I had a good day. Amelia slept so much today and I got a nice break! We had a good time at Target and Old Navy and then came home and played a little. She was ready for bed at 8 and went down easily. Now we're sitting on the couch and I'm going to try and finish the smocking on Amelia's Valentine's Day dress.

Going out for date night. My mom is babysitting. She is awesome and I know it'll be fine, but M is just such a handful that I worry about leaving her for even a short amount of time.
Amelia has been feeling a lot better, just really tired and not wanting to play as much. She's wanted us to hold her most of the day, which was fine. But the funny thing is that she has been farting a lot. I put her down in her crib and she ripped a big one and I laughed and she giggled too. I laugh every time she farts. It's so funny coming from such a little person.
My solution for newborn crying is pretty much always "stick a boob in it" but this does NOT work for M, leading to tremendous frustration for both of us beause I don't know wtf her problem is.
