misshart00 Horray! I hope it stays that way!

DD and I started our day with with a bachelorette party brunch and then went on to the zoo to met her cousins and hang out. The weather is fantastic today!
I'm supposed to rejoin the bachelorette party for dinner but I'm really not in the mood so I'm trying to get out of it. Lucky I have a baby to "blame"

[osumegs]

michelle142 and @holachica I can't imagine. I worry about the 3 day poops. You know the smell is going to be vicious even then. I can't imagine a 6 or 10 day run! That sounds like a toss the baby in a bath situation

[cougarette]

DS hardly napped yesterday and is fighting it so far this morning. I wonder if he's hitting the 3 month growth spurt early. Or is there a wonder week at 10/11 weeks? Ugh, so cranky.

[jensoprano82]

I put the gas fireplace on this morning because it's so rarely cold enough to use it around here, and DS has been in his Bjorn chair watching it, transfixed, for like twenty minutes. Is this poor parenting???

[jensoprano82]

I have the damn "Minnie's Bow-tique" song from Mickey Mouse clubhouse stuck in my head right now. (My mom watches my 2 yo niece two weekdays and the kid is obsessed. I really hope she gets over this show before my son is old enough to see it! I find it very fast moving and screamy, even for kids tv)

Surprisingly, there wasn't that much. Just.... so much stink. I swear I can still smell it 4 hours later.

My potty plan is working so far! Its outside now in the yard and she is still dry! I am not getting too excited yet.

This house runs on Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Minnie's Bowtique!

[jensoprano82]

Yup! I don't think I'll escape it!

I let DS watch Mickey Mouse clubhouse this morning so I could shower and get ready. I figure if I am trying to get something done, it's not so bad.

Sounds like awesome parenting to me! I say just go with it

There's one that starts "between 11.5 and 12.5 weeks" per the app

[anchovies]

Went to barre this am. DS had a meltdown while I was driving home and DH was watching him. He's just overtired.

Not much planned for today. Hoping to make it to 5:30 mass. That will depend on how long DH and his group take for their weekly meeting. They have final projects due this coming week.

[dramacat]

Ugh. LO woke up from his nap with a scream and when I ran in he looked a little dusky (ie. Grayish blue). He regained his color right away. I called the doctor as soon as it happened and they said since he is not having any other symptoms and it happened so fast to keep am eye on him and call back if it happens again. I think I just lost 10 years off my lifespan.

Oh man that's scary. Hope it doesn't happen again

[aggiebug]

How terrifying dramacat! I am glad LO is ok.

[dreemkin]

Scary dramacat. Hugs!

[dreemkin]

I got Thai take-out for lunch since DD1 is too sick to go out. It was delicious but my stomach is all confused after not eating much for three weeks. Panang and Pad si ew. Mmmm!

That sounds terrifying! What causes this??

[dreemkin]

I have a question (bc I don't remember with my first and I'm afraid to dr google): is it okay for Anna to still have clenched hands most of the time? She usually keeps those hands in a fist unless she's playing with a toy. When do they stop this?

I don't know but DS had clenched hands most of the time at 3 months. Yesterday though he was playing on his floor gym and then he stopped, spread the fingers out on his one hand and then looked at then like, woah, what are these?
It was hilarious.

misshart00 it's good to hear from you this morning. Hope everyone is still safe.

So far, yes. Last night was mostly bad wind/hail/rain. I think only one tornado. It's supposed to storm again today. They said if it's raining in the morning, that's good because the atmosphere is more stable. But if it's sunny in the morning, it could lead to a tornado outbreak (tornado outbreak as defined by a dozen plus tornados, some F3-F5).

It's bright and sunny outside.

that scounds so scary we dont have any form of extreme weather in Holland so I have no idea how you feel. I hope all stays quiwt , enkoy yourvmothers day! stay safe

DD still has her hands in fists about 80% of the time just over 3 months.

Gonna do a quick AW:


I no longer have a little squish....when did that happen?!

Other than the 1 month to 3 month side by side shot above, nothing exciting here. Which is good. Wednesday's tornado "fun" was enough excitement for me for the week! Oklahoma has never EVER gotten this much rain, and we're about to have another week of it. :/

Really glad I didn't buy a bunch of flowers for the garden like I wanted. They probably would have floated off long ago!

Our flower bed is totally washed out. I'm so sick of rain already.

Unfortunately there's still tornado warnings down by the Texas state line.

He had bleeding in his brain at birth. Apparently when his brain began to streamline the veins one that wasn't going to stay snapped instead of safely shriveling up. It caused seizures at birth which manifested in apnic (not breathing) spells. He is on seizure medication. Hopefully his brain will clean up all the toxic blood by August (when he's 6 months) so he can be weaned off the meds.

That is scary to read, so I can't imagine what it is like in real life. Hugs to you. I hope everything is okay.

I am still waiting for Brady to slow down on the pooping. He still goes multiple times a day. My diaper bill is ridiculous because he sharts so many times!

That's a lot to go through. I hope everything is smooth sailing through August and beyond for him.
