It's Friday! Spam

[aggiebug]

and here is something special for ya

[aggiebug]

Happy Friday!

Nothing terribly exciting here I think we are going to go to lunch with H and maybe Barnes & Nobles today. My life is thrilling.

[michelle142]

I slept 9 hours last night. It was glorious!

[misshart00]

Both kids slept through the night last night. Yay! But I got no sleep because of the stupid cell phone crap. I feel so violated. At the least, they have my phone number and address. They could possibly have my social security number among other things.

[aggiebug]

Anyone doing anything exciting this weekend?

I am meeting up with some local nesties other than that nada.

[cougarette]

DS was still wide awake at 5 after I unsuccessfully tried to put him in the pnp around 4. He had some major farts that I knew produced poop.

DH came in before leaving for work, and changed him and put him in bed with the noise machine on. DS feel asleep in a few minutes and we just woke up at 8:30.

[cougarette]

I'm going to pick strawberries with my mom, niece, and nephews. I feel like total crap, but the one niece and nephew live in NJ now so I'd like them to see N more while they're here.

Then I'm going to hopefully get some sinus meds. I usually don't pay too much attention to ingredient lists, but I need to make sure I find some without pseudophedrine. I did the neti pot yesterday, but it only feels good for a little bit. The pressure and pain is killing me.

That shouldn't be to hard. If it is on the shelves it shouldn't have pseudophedrine. That is now kept behind the counter and you have to show your ID, sign your life away and be prepared to be interrogated before purchasing. Thanks to those who use it to make meth.

I hope you find something that works and feel better soon.

My DD1 hasn't had a potty accident in 2 weeks. She woke up this morning and just sat in her bed and peed.

She is being a monster to her cousin and Aunt. It's driving me batty.

Boo! Is she cranky because she is out of her normal routine?

[mamabisme]

Last night when I set my phone alarm I accidentally set it to PM so it didn't go off this morning. I made it to the gym an hour later than I wanted to but at least I got a short workout in.

We've got nothing exciting going on today. I need to finish the grocery shopping and housework. My brother-in-law is bringing his DD over tomorrow to swim and play. She's the same age as DD2 and plays really well with both of my girls. Sunday we have a birthday party to attend (still need to buy a gift for that).

Every weekend I try to make sure we get out for a significant chunk of at least one day to get some exercise, as a family. We do hiking trails, beach walks, bike rides, explore downtown, etc. I'm having a hard time deciding what we should do this weekend. I want to stay close to home but I feel like we need to try something new. Oh well. It will come to me.

[kaydee0402]

So much to do but I'm currently being held hostage by my one month old who wants to take his morning nap on mama's chest. It's going to be in the 80's today. I can't wait to take DS outside to play!

This weekend we're packing a picnic and going to a winery with friends. I haven't been to a winery in nearly a year. I'm so excited!

[mrszee]

Yay for fun weekend plans and sleeping babies!

Boo for allergies and sinuses-I am dreading that this year

DD decided to snooze a little longer after I got up so I ate HOT breakfast and drank HOT coffee for the first time in forever!! Yay!

We need to make it to the grocery store today and that's about it. No crazy plans for the weekend, just hoping to clean up a little bit!!

[modernfairytale8709]

Rough night last night. DD wanted to wake up every hour. They just increased her dose of propranolol, and it's a beta blocker, so it's preventing her from falling into a deep sleep. I'm hoping she adjusts to the higher dose soon.

Exciting stuff: DH and I are having a date day tomorrow! We're going to see the new Fast & Furious and then out for a late lunch. DD will be staying with MIL.
Oh, and today's the day we make an offer on a house 3 miles from my parents, and 5 miles from my job. It's a great old farmhouses (built in 1875...how cool is that?) With 2 acres. I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much, because it's so perfect. But my hopes are very, very high.

[misshart00]

Um, is this the same kid? Wow that was fast.

[hollydfromtn]

Nothing big happening here today. I'm debating on attempting grocery shopping with LO or not. MIL usually comes and watches him for me so I can do it. It's a win win, she loves to watch him and I get an hour or two to myself but they're out of town today. I'm also planning on finishing up my new gauze wrap I'm making. It has been in the 80s this week and my jersey knit wrap was way to hot to use much longer. So I hit up the fabric store on the way home. I should have a beautiful teal gauze wrap by the end of the day and it's only costing me about $12.

[mishka29]

Sucky morning here when I woke up with a head cold, heart burn and hives. I look like I got punched in the face.

Looks like I'll be spending my day as a human pacifier again. What else is new?!

[angeldcf]

DS had scarlet fever last weekend. He's had bad allergies (?) for over a week now even after being on the antibiotic, eye drops, etc so we're headed back to the Pedi this morning. Scared me bc it looked like his left sclera was swollen today- any eye issues make me nervous.

DD still waking to nurse around 2am and 5am. I need a nap.

[2mrsks (mrs&mrsk)]

Ds and Dw are napping in bed (oops not in the pack and play,,, damn we will never get that going)
I just got up --getting extra rest in for date night tonight!!
Friends r coming by today and this weekend I'm hoping to get some yard work done.
Monday I'm back to work

[mommadozer]

3 month growth spurt has arrived. LO has wiped me out of milk practically and he slept about 20 hours yesterday. I swear I could of let him sleep all day.

pretty sure H has the flu and not food poisoning like we were hoping. He still has a fever and major stomach issues. I have him quarantined and have been frantically wiping down all surfaces he's touched.

Oh and my cousin from Florida is coming to visit tomorrow. ugh hoping DS and I don't get sick.

Yup. DH had that when LO was 3 weeks old and we were out of town staying in our travel trailer. Just keep him contained, bring him his food and constantly wash your hands. I think I was pumping myself with a lot of vitamin C as well. Somehow we were able to avoid getting it. Crossing my fingers for you and your LO.

Ugh I hope he feels better soon. Fwiw the flu doesn't cause stomach issues unless your H is prone to fever induced vomiting it could still be found poisoning. I hope you can stay in general clear.

What kind of fabric do you use for this? I thought about making one then got nervous and I'm making a ring sling with linen instead. Which should be good as far as having more options but I may still like a good lightweight wrap!

[miniwheat]

modernfairytale8709, Good luck with the offer!! A farmhouse sounds lovely!

misshart00, he is too cute!

@nolagal, I hope your DD feels like herself again soon. My DD totally regressed with the potty since DS was born. I dont even know where to go from here.

@holachica, FX you wont catch it. Stomach bugs are the worst.

[miniwheat]

Today we took DD skating and got some poster boards to paint. Its finally warming up here but its rainy so we need fun inside things to do or I will go nuts. Also, I think DS's Sit Me Up Seat will be here today!

This weekend we will be boiling our sap and hopefully get a lot of maple syrup! Also my MIL is teaching me how to make jam. I also found a great deal on a carset so I think I am going to buy the Graco Nautilus Multi-Stage. Anyone have it? Do like it?

Apparently girls are classic regressors with new babies. It's so frustrating, though. Argghhhhhhh.

Ugh. I love her to pieces, but this potty situation makes me feel like I am taking crazy pills.

[kartish]

I think my part time work schedule is messing with LO's morning sleeping. He did not want to go back to sleep after 5am. This was also after a not so fun night.

I wish I was independently wealthy and SAH. And also, I wish I could take a nap.

[dreemkin]

modernfairytale8709 good luck! We are selling our house and I wish we have someone think our house is perfect.

We have had two crappy offers on the house. It's been 9 days and we've probably had 30 showings. I'm sick of not being able to "live" in our house. We've had a lot of good feedback but no decent offers. Come on people...buy this house if you like it! Grrr!

[anchovies]

modernfairytale8709 good luck with the offer!! Sounds like an awesome fit for you and your family

@holachica I hope your H feels better asap and that you and your LO are able to steer clear of it!

I am currently sitting at the Subaru dealership with DH and DS. DS is napping in his car seat and I'm just avoiding all conversation. I hate buying vehicles. It's obnoxious. But, I would like us to both have safe, reliable vehicles with DS around.

Also, we are those crazy people contemplating adopting another dog. She is 20 months old, was raised to be a show dog but she hates the show ring. They said she just wants to hang out and be loved. we already have 2 whippets and we have been wanting a 3rd for a couple of years now.

[dreemkin]

Sorry to all the sickies out there (or those with sick relatives).

[misshart00]

Update on my cell phone stuff.

My account information was changed, including the address. They changed it all online.

Then they went into the store and bought phones. So the hackers have the physical phones in their possession.

I was encouraged by my cell phone company to press charges (even though most likely nothing will come from it) because they have the phones. If something weird and random happens with the "stolen" phones, I need a paper trail saying they're not mine.
