@msn06 I use the same system for packing baby's too-small clothes- and most times I forget once the laundry is done what I said was going to be the last time she wore it. She's still in 6-9 month clothes. wildflower810 How long did bedtime take? My baby didn't take anything more than a catnap yesterday and was rubbing her eyes earlier than usual so I thought she might go to bed early. Nope. I was also worried about how she might sleep, since sleep begets sleep and all that. Well, she woke up once to eat but she went back into the bassinet!! Full 12 hours (with the one feeding/changing). Holy crap.
We have to go to a graduation party today for DH's cousin's step-son. Best part was when we got the text that DH's cousin and husband would only be at the party for the first hour so if all of us want to see them then we should go then. I'm shocked that they won't stay for the whole party. I get not liking you ex but it's your kids high school graduation party suck it up for the whole thing.
MsNicole06 We deal with the exes thing on DHs side of the family at every.single.event. It blows my mind that someone who doesn't want to see their ex would make a special event more about them than whom it's supposed to be celebrating. I put my foot down and said that we will never have two parties just to accommodate the exes (though I would maybe have two parties because double cake).
gldnbearz up on all fours already?! My LO hasn't come close b zengal yay to all that sleeping!! MsNicole06 that's too bad that they won't stay longer. I would say at least they're going because I'm my experience it took until my college graduation for my mom dad and stepmom to be at the same party. And my parents got divorced when I was 2. Talk about awkward party. I think it's slowly getting better and I hope with grandkids they can start to get over it. We got some pretty good sleep and are just waiting for DH to get home. He's working some crazy hours these last few days.

zengal, bedtime last night took an hour and a half. I proceeded to eat alll the ice cream straight out of the carton.
Today I learned the dangers of sticking a q-tip up LO's butt to help him poop. Let's just say I was wholly unprepared for what happened next. And this was our first poop after solids, too. I was afraid he might be getting constipated. Not. Any. More.
wildflower810 mm ice cream but boo for bedtime issues. Also yuck for the poop.
Feeling slightly more human today but barely. My H is Winning all the brownie points this weekend and I am getting nothing on my todo list done but I'm hoping resting this weekend will help me function tomorrow because my work day is literally scheduled back to back from 6:30am-4:30pm and I have an 1.5 hour commute each way tomorrow (at least it's only every other week but I dread it).
Buying H a jogging stroller was seriously the best money I have spent in a while lo loves it and it gets me an hour to an hour and a half of quiet time almost daily.

zengal we're going to see Entourage when it comes out this week.
I managed to get some pages done in DD's quiet book and I'm really excited about how they turned out. In a few months I think she'll love it. Right now she just likes to feel all of the pages but I know soon she'll pull the things off and put them back.
I don't know what's in theaters right now, but DH and I just rented American Sniper and it was REALLY good. My parents took LO for a few hours and we ordered pizza and watched that on our couch. It was great to be able to actually watch a movie all the way through! Don't remember the last time that happened!

I want to see Pitch Perfect 2 but have no idea if I will find time. Pretty sure I'll be waiting until it comes out on video.
Dh has been on call the last 2 weeks and has not received one call, until yesterday. He's worked most of the weekend. Only upside is the paycheck. I've missed having him around today.
wildflower810 I hope bedtime went better tonight! spikesmom I hope tomorrow you feel even more human, I think you've earned some rest! And yay for H helping out so much! zengal what's a movie? Jk I hope you guys were able to get out and see one. MsNicole06 I didn't know what a quiet book was so I googled it, and that's a gr at idea! I'm a beginner at sewing but this would be so much fun. I should probably finish the project of reupholstering the glider first haha. jjh1119 yay for getting an impromptu date! jax1182014 I haven't watched it in a long time, but I've read all the books. DH and I keep talking about starting it up again, but... You know life lol. Way too much to catch up on. nerdalert we want to watch that too! Glad you guys got some time together. @ninetgirl52 I want to see Pitch Perfect 2 also! My friend said it was pretty good for a sequel. I'm just now getting to bed at a little after ten. I forgot how late I tend to stay up when DH is working grave. For no reason I just keep putting bed off. I'm going to regret this big time when LO wakes up for the first time tonight.
LO barely napped today which has turned into her being up every hour. We're now in the swing hoping that works. She's not crying if she can see one of us.
