So DH is off at trainings every day this week (so glad we have summer off together as this is second week like this). Before he left he gave LO her medicine and wiped her mouth with the burp cloth. No sooner is DH closing the garage door. Does LO spit up when she burps and there is no burp cloth because DH walked off with it. That's right ladies I determined this was a crisis because I couldn't move her with out getting spit up all over my hands. I even called DH to thank him putting me in this situation. Now that I'm more awake I realize how ridiculous it was of me.
I know I haven't been on since February! Life has been SUPER hectic. I got a new job offer, so we had to move. We had a break in just before the move. So moved a month earlier and within 2 days due to break in. Since then it has been getting settled, working, studying, etc. I have been real bad getting on here, as my phone doesn't want to load it proper! I am still active on FB, but I will really TRY to get on here more often!
MsNicole06 ha! I would have called too, I'm sure he knows you were just tired!
I'm so tired today. Idk wtf is going on with lo but she tossed and turned all night and woke up every hour and a half. Annnndd she's getting her shots this morning...so should be a fun day at the kfaye household. Maybe she will sleep all day. (Fx!)
So now that my little lady can pull herself that's all she wants to do. Bedtime is getting really frustrating because she will be asleep, we put her down and she wakes up right away and sits up then pulls herself up

wolkiesa, hey!! I'm so sorry you got broken into. It sounds like the job was a good thing, though, if you were willing to move for it.
ninergirl52 it was you asking about the potty the other day, right? Well, I got a potty at the store yesterday, sat M on it this morning after I took his night diaper off... and he peed! Unfortunately I got the cheapest potty there was and the stupid thing has a hole right where boys will pee so it got all over the floor. H will be rigging something up. Do NOT get the $13 Summer brand one! But, I think I'm going to make this a regular thing. I don't have visions of actually potty training yet, but I'm hoping to get there sooner than most. I don't want my 3 year old still in diapers.
MsNicole06 That sounds like something I would do, haha! Hi again wolkiesa! Hope you are feeling settled again soon. kfaye Maybe the shots won't be so bad this time? jax1182014 I don't mind my baby not sitting herself up yet for the very reasons you mention...it's a good thing they're cute, right? Way to go with the potty wildflower810! I was so spoiled last week getting to spend so much time with baby. Now I'm back to my usual work/pump schedule, bleh. I'm giving myself vibes and visions of productivity. And I'll send some to everybody for a happy Monday!!
MsNicole06 I've givin up on burp cloths and just use whips because they always seems to be a package around. wolkiesa, Hope your new adventures are going well, kfaye, good luck with the shots maybe she's teething? jax1182014, I have almost the same issue with Joseph, fast asleep in my arms insta up when he barely touches the mattress. wildflower810, i have the smae feeling about potty training. If he can use words to tell me he needs a new diaper or has figured out a motion to signal such as bottle or food then he's old enough to start trying to lean how to use the potty.
I have made a very small change to my siggy last week and as of right not the morning nausea is strong with this one. The stats for this baby are as follows: Same daddy as Jospeh I'm also still a single momma so what the hell did I get myself into I've come up with my own estimated due date of February 14th because the free clinic ultrasound said I was pregnant but to early to see anything. this will make 2 year in a row for no getting slouched on my birthday or new years. Come to think of it I have not been drunk since early feb 2014.
jax1182014 Pulling up already? That's a my reminder to drop LO's PNP down and remove the bassinet layer. Not looking forward to having to put a sleeping baby down so deep.
wildflower810 Good for M for peeing in the potty. Ugh what a mess to clean up.
I will probably be loving it all week or doing post and runs as the work project goes out this week.
gldnbearz I was pretty shocked when she started pulling herself up too. Now everything is in the lowest position and it's very hard to put her down so deep
jax1182014, man. we just learned how to get on our hands and knees, so obviously that's more fun than sleeping. last night she hung out in her crib just rock rock rocking for an hour. girl. it's night time, stop it.
Took a personal day to unfuck our house. I've made some major progress on the kitchen. I've also spent the morning fighting with my flex spending account provider because they're rejecting all of my claims from LO. Awesome. I'd LOVE to talk on the phone all morning proving these claims are legitimate.

MsNicole06 - oh man! I used to be so squeamish around spit up but now I swear I am always covered in it. Lol wolkiesa- welcome back! That sounds like a crazy busy time! Glad you are back and can't wait to hear about your LO! kfaye -I feel your pain today! Maybe a growth spurt? jax1182014- she is pulling herself up? That's so crazy! Have you moved the mattress down? wildflower810 - yay for potty success! Definitely worth trying. zengal - hoping your day goes by quickly so you get some more baby time. wicked22- Congratulations! That makes 2 N14ers!

I am beat! Isaac was also up every hour. Finally I gave in and let him cosleep as I stayed awake. So i am on 2 hours of sleep. 4 more hours and i think i will get a nap. The winds were howling and I think he was startled awake a few times. Also he rolled over in front of me finally. He didn't do it in front of us but rather in the split second that we looked away. I got it on video and now he rolls everywhere. Also ordered a convertible car seat. Thank you for the info on height requirements.
I wish there was a way to both pump and nap. I nearly dropped the bottle as i almost dozed off
MH has asked me multiple times if he could rig a way for me to pump and sleep at the same time. Especially when he has to wake me up from under a sleeping baby to go pump.

Lol to the term "unfuck". I was just recently telling DH that with this whole week off, he should have cleaned at least a little but no. So I will be cleaning after the nap I plan to take when he gets home. He didn't get up once last night so he better not complain.
So many things going wrong recently... I never got crib bumbers (I think that's what they are called). I found my little lady with her legs through the slots in the crib screaming. Maybe I should get them???
wicked22 CONGRATS! wolkiesa welcome back! Sounds like a great job if you were willing to move for it!
I was gone out of state for work the last 7 days, which ended with me going to the ER in a state I wasn't familiar with. Luckily I was released pretty quickly, but now I am being asked to fly back again for 5 more days!! My soul is slowly dying from being away from LO so much. It's getting really stressful to keep up the pumping in order to match what LO is eating. /vent

wolkiesa - EEEK!!! I'm so happy to see you post here. I've wondered how you are doing!!! Congrats on the new job, hope all is going well for you!! @msnicole06 - Sometimes you can't, NOT, want to rip someone's head off over the slightest things. I feel your angst. kfaye - I will just make myself useful and pass you all the coffee. wildflower810 - I actually can't remember anything that happened 2 hours ago, so maybe I did ask about the potty. Regardless way to go. I should really try that with my LO. wicked22 - Congrats, here's to a happy and healthy 9 months gldnbearz - ugh regarding AF. songbirdsinging55 - Yay to getting to see LO roll over. jax1182014 - I took LO's crib bumpers off a month or two ago and now that he rocks and rolls I keep thinking I may need to put them back on. Then I remember, I wait, he doesn't actually sleep in his crib. I kid ... he does ... but rarely more than an hour or two. catlady22 - Hope you're doing better. Is there anything your work can do to lessen your travel? I'm so sorry you are dealing with that. pixie523 - You make me giggle ... every time! Good luck with the flex spending people
I'm off Wed-Fri this week because MIL is coming to town. This will be the first time she meets LO. She lives on the other side of the country and doesn't travel a lot. Regardless, I'm anticipating an emotional time at the airport tomorrow night when we pick her up. She prayed so much for DH and I over our losses and TTC over the years, nobody thought LO would happen so I know this is going to be pretty special for her.
ninergirl52 unfortunately, no. I told them it is a hardship to travel, but there isn't much they can do. Yay for your short week! Have fun with your MIL.
I can't believe there are 2 N14er's already KU again! So exciting!
I took LO to the doctor today to get a prescription for Zantac. He has never been a good sleeper, but the past month has been a nightmare. Up every two or three hours. I have always thought he had a little bit of reflux going on, but nothing severe or enough to worry. Now I am starting to wonder if it has been affecting his sleep all along. Anyway, we shall see I guess. Please God, let this help!
