Happy Mother's Day ladies! It has been an unbelievable ride since finding out we were going to be moms or moms to a new LO and I'm lucky to have shared it with all of you!
Happy Mother's Day! I wasn't really able to sleep in after DD woke up because pretty much after 7am my body just won't let me. But I got to just get up and make myself breakfast and coffee while DH took care of her, so that was nice. Soon I'll be taking a nice long shower and my parents will be coming over around 11.
We also finally got a new dishwasher! We've had a broken one in the house for five years, and I finally convinced DH that we should get one now while we can afford it, before DD starts eating solids and getting things messy. I'd love to say I'd use it for bottles, but I can't justify running the dishwasher every day when it's not full.
dacora our house doesn't have a dishwasher. We've been waiting until we turn the heat off to get one so dh can move a radiator blocking the kitchen plumbing to install it. I think memorial day weekend we will hit up sales. I'm so excited! I've broken so many glasses the past few months.

Happy Mother's Day y'all! You are rockstars, and having this place to share this wild ride has been so enormously soothing this year, thank you!
Our one MOTN wake up (which is actually 5-6 am but we wake up 7-8 around here) has gotten so civilized lately. I hear DS chirping and squirming, get up and pee and get his bottle (roughly twice he's ended up falling back asleep), still get to him before he is super awake, and snuggle him as he eats and then straight back to bed. Tonight was NOT one of those wake ups. He woke up so hungry he was shaking and sobbing (normal amount of time between meals), and gulped so aggressively he then gave himself terrible gas. Silly boy. We're back in bed now but wowza!!! Hangry!
I thought we were skipping Mother's Day because DH's mother passed away two weeks ago and I didn't want him reminded all day, but he still had "the baby" send me flowers and still sent me a message at midnight. (Out of town for the weekend). Such a sweet man.

Happy Mother's Day! I, too, am extremely grateful to have you ladies. Talking with you all has helped me more than you can ever know. I started by lurking on TD the day I found out I was pregnant. That was the same day my husband left for Australia for 19 days. Now I have grown to checking in daily to see how all my "friends" are doing. You have giving support and made me laugh throughout my PPA issues and truly made it better for me.
Thank you all for being on this journey with me. I hope everyone has a wonderful day.
DH got us donuts for breakfast, and he gave me a hammock for the back yard! And three cards- one from DS, one from our dog, and one from him. Good job, H, good job.

My husband got me a framed picture of all the kids since he knew I would want one on my desk when I go back to work.
We have to go to my mom's house soon. Fingers crossed that Brady can hang with all the chaos that is about to ensue. Pray I don't tie up my niece and throw her in the closet. I hope she behaves today.

Happy Mother's Day ladies!!! Hope everyone get spoiled.
I woke up with dd but she went right back and slept til about 9. When I put her back in bed, DH put my present in there. He listened , and I got my purse. (It is Mother's Day and our anniversary which is Tuesday). Dd and I are hanging out in bed while daddy went to get me breakfast.
Headed to mils soon for crawfish. Then headed to my grandmothers and my mom this afternoon for dinner.

cloe111479 I could so go for some crawfish right now. Enjoy!
Mothers Day in Sweden isn't until May 31, but I wish all you ladies a Happy Mothers Day today!
The weather is terrible today so we are staying in. We think something "clicked" for DD last night. Suddenly she couldn't focus on eating but kept looking around her and she wouldn't go to sleep until I took her into the bedroom and turned the lights down. And today she has been giving DH smiles as soon as she catches him in her sight. Some kind of development leap I guess? I also put away some of her first clothes today. She is growing so fast :sobs:

Happy Mother's Day!
DS woke up with a slight fever. So instead of brunch as planned, we are getting takeout. I'm ok with that, I can stay in my pjs!
DH dusted this morning. He also vacuumed... which is great, but he could have waited until I was awake instead of scaring the shit out of me. A for effort I suppose.

DS surprised me for mother's day by sleeping from 9-8! He's also pretty much finished all his bottles today (after 2 weeks of crying after 2oz and struggling to finish 2/3 of the bottle over many attempts) and he's really smiley I hope this marks the end of the leap he was going through! In any case, very very happy today!!! @alyllyra, my guy had the same sudden leap. Fussy and needed quiet/dark but lots of new skills came out of it. Hopefully she shows you some merci!

Happy mothers day!
We didn't get everything done yesterday that I wanted to so I need to finish today. But it's cloudy and I don't want to get off the couch. I'm also supposed to see my mom today but I don't really want to do that either. Blahhh.
