Totally cool Tuesday

[zengal]

The day after a long weekend...

[zengal]

Is anybody really back in gear? I sure did have a tough time getting going- like more than usual. My hair wouldn't do right and I couldn't decide what to wear. But it's a totally cool day (yeah, I'm totally having to put that energy out there to try to make it so!).

[catlady22]

I'm here, barely. A 3 day weekend was much needed. I got to spend a bunch of quality family time with LO before I leave on Friday for work for 7 days

[wildflower810]

H worked 16 hours on Sunday and 13 hours yesterday. I'm. so. tired. Like I'm not even functioning tired. He has tomorrow off... but he has PT and chiro appointments and M has his 6 month check up, so I'm not exactly sure how much of an "off" day it will be.

[gldnbearz]

It's sloooowww going here. Cool and drizzly weather is no help.

[nerdalert]

catlady22 Wow, 7 days?! Glad you were able to get some family time before that.

wildflower810 My H works hours like that too. It totally sucks. I hope you can find some time to rest today.

This morning we got LO's 6 month pictures taken, so I'm glad that's out of the way! It's a good thing I brought a backup outfit because LO spit up on the first one as soon as I put it on her. Haha! Sometimes I feel like my life is a sitcom.

Hope everyone had a relaxing holiday weekend. Can't believe this time last year we were all pregnant! Times really does go by fast doesn't it? For everyone with sore wrists, I highly recommend going to a hand surgeon! I went today and got a steroid injection and its sore and numb but I ran into 2 women working there who had the same thing happen to them. One was the doctor who did the injection.

[wildflower810]

I haven't gotten M's 6 month pictures scheduled or anything. I want to do a family shoot, but with H's schedule I don't really know when would work for us. I also have no idea who in the area is good and I don't want to spend umpteen dollars getting them done. I'm feeling kinda guilty about this.

[zengal]

catlady22 I thought you were going to maybe have a new assignment where you didn't have travel like this? I'm sorry you have to leave again.
wildflower810 the fun never ends, right?
We have sun for the first time in forever gldnbearz. Somehow, that also makes it hard to do any work, haha!
nerdalert If N14 collectively published memoirs, it would be a best seller for sure. From being born in the caul to drinking phenol, and all the sitcom stuff in between, we moms have had a crazy six months!
jax1182014 I'm so glad your hand feels better!
Even though I had getting ready snafus this morning, I feel surprisingly good for the quantity of wine I had last night. Did having a baby affect my ability to recover?

I hope the injections bring you relief. I may need to repeat the injections because it didn't improve.

wildflower810 If you tried to do your own photo shoot you could end up with at least one good one to make a lot of prints of...or some hilarious fails!!

[jax1182014]

gldnbearz when did you get yours? They offered me a stronger steroid but I thought I would start with the less stronger. Maybe that would be an option for you?

I had mine done at the end of March and the MD wants to wait 8 weeks between injections.

Having a treat myself Tuesday! Took the day off and had the sitter come over. I've gone to nordstroms to get fitted for new bras, had a facial and bought all the crazy potions she recommended, and am now having a cocktail and lunch all alone. BEST DAY.

[zengal]

Wow pixie523!! What a delightful day- good for you!!

[wildflower810]

pixie523, go you!

H is on his way home. He texted me earlier and said he plans on being extra helpful tonight. So I'm hopeful that it won't be game and vege night for him.

I still feel like a truck ran over me.

[ninergirl52]

Drive by post. Lo & I both have colds. He is currently sleeping in my arms, Kleenex box next to us and we're both in our pj's still. Dh went to work but wasn't feel well either. Lo's 6 month appt is tomorrow (forget that he's almost 7 months now) and I'm wondering if I need to reschedule. Not sure he can get shots while he's sick.

[songbirdsinging55]

ninergirl52- hoping you and LOL feel better soon!

wildflower810- feel better lady and hoping your H backs away from the games!
pixie523- that sounds amazing! You enjoy yourself, you deserve every minute :-)
zengal- it was like a Monday but shorter. So weird
catlady22-7 days! Hope it flies by for you.
nerdalert-LOL. I always pack extras.
jax1182014- hope the injections give you some relief soon.

[songbirdsinging55]

I had radio silence for a few days. It was awesome but not planned. My phone had died lol. Isaac bit DH hard. I laughed but he started biting while I nurse. Ouch! I want to get professional pics soon.

Drive by post because I have no energy to tag...today and tomorrow are super busy days at work with back to back meetings....had to rearrange my schedule today to take lo to the doctors because his poor face swelled back up, eyes and nose both running like crazy. Doctor said even though he is technically too young to test positive for allergies that appears to be what is going on. We have to watch him closely for any breathing changes and give benadryl around the clock for a few days to see if it improves. They made us come in for a sick visit today (which I'm fine with considering) but we have his well child visit tomorrow morning so lots of work juggling for mom (Im working tonight to catch up from earlier).

I an also battling a sinus infection myself and it apparently decided to turn up the heat on me last night because I woke up around 2:00am feeling like my face might implode or explode or both. Fun times all around over here :-(

Is it wrong I just want to crawl in a hole an sleep for days??

[MsNicole06]

I just want to say since going back to work I've had no time for posting but I'm officially on summer break so, I hope to post more and lurk less.

[wildflower810]

Hey MsNicole06!

Also, want to read stuff that will make your eyes roll so hard they get stuck? forums.thebump.com/categories/november-2015-moms

You're welcome.

[MsNicole06]

I read newly pregnant questions and wonder did I really wonder this.

[nerdalert]

spikesmom That is a lot to handle! T&Ps that you both feel better soon and can get some good rest!

wildflower810 Whyyy did I click on that....

[catlady22]

zengal, I was interviewing for a new job and they keep saying they want me but have yet to give me an offer! So annoying. So in the meantime I am stuck traveling still. I cannot wait to have a job with no travel!
