Hello, Thursday!

[cam]

Thursday greeted me waaaay to early this morning. I woke up 5434 times during the night, some of it was me, some of it was LO being restless also. Around 5am I couldn't fall back to sleep. LO had the same problem around 6:30. It is making for a fun day. It is the second or third night that both of us have slept like crap - I'm too tired to keep count. Not sure what is up. Hopefully we get back on track tonight.

I have a number of things I need to do between today and tomorrow, but I am not sure which things to do today versus tomorrow. I am hoping LO is up for a haircut today. He was having a rough day yesterday, so it would have had about a 100% chance of turning out uneven had I attempted it then like I had wanted. LO is setting up his instruments at the moment, so it looks like we are going to be having a dance party shortly. There is a nice breeze, so maybe it'll be nice enough for a bike ride later.

What is everyone else up to today?

I think my allergies are flaring up again. Seriously I can't handle the issues from that along with being 38+ weeks pregnant. I'm beyond done.

Plus side, I took my middle daughter to the dental school this morning and it took half the time it took yesterday! Thank his because I just could not sit in those chairs today.

Ugh, stuck in the house for the bazillionth day because of rain. Luckily the newborn slept really well last night, and the toddler is taking a reeeeally nice long nap. I guess we'll make some cookies and watch a movie when he wakes up, but I know he's going to be begging to go outside. Don't want to splash around in cold rain with a newborn though. Siiiiiigh.


Cookies, though.

cam, I'm sorry that you haven't been sleeping well. Hopefully tonight will be better for both of you.
3timemom, Yay for not having another 3 hours at the dental school today!

Today we're just hanging around the house. DD still had a low grade fever last night. I think it was teething related, but I'd rather us stay home today and maybe go to the zoo tomorrow if she doesn't have a fever today.

It's rainy and ugly here too and DH works until 8 so I'm sort of just hoping the kids will be kind to me. DS was really whiny this morning but is napping now.

I slipped on a toy in the basement this morning and even though I didn't fall all of the way I've been having some pain on my side. I'm laying down now and hoping I don't have to call the doctor.

Just hanging around the house. LO is napping right now, and I'm just hanging out on the couch when I really should be getting some stuff down. Not feeling the best...a little light headed off and on since yesterday.

Also, I'm so excited that Big Brother is back! Anyone else around here watch?

My husband was off today so we went to the zoo for a little bit. Of course it started raining because that's all its been doing lately it seems so we did the indoor stuff and then walked for a bit in the rain until it was coming down harder.

Tomorrow if the weather cooperates we may go check out a splash pad so hopefully it won't rain.

@auri, thanks! I hope so. Saturday is the first morning in weeks (or months?) that we don't have to be anywhere (or do anything time-critical) bright and early, so worst case scenario is that MH takes LO to the park or something after breakfast so I can sleep a little extra if needed.

ashiscute, do you think you just pulled a muscle or something? Hope whatever it is goes away quickly.

@charlotte, hope everything gets settled quickly and with as few additional inconveniences as possible.

[ashiscute]

@charlotte cam I guess I was more irrationally worried I somehow hurt the baby but I didn't actually hit the ground. I go to the doctor tomorrow anyway so I'll mention it. I feel better after laying down and feeling some decent movement.

I'm a little late to the party. But today we played outside with LOs pool and went for a walk. She refused to nap this afternoon so we're both extra cranky now. I gotta start pushing her morning nap to a later midday nap because this is driving me insane.

[3timemom]

corabrie love big brother! I almost missed it last night! Luckily I caught it within the first 10 minutes of it starting. I kind of hate that it starts at 7. That's a bad time at our house but we don't have dvr.

We've just been homebodies today. I cooked lunch since we didn't have leftovers from dinner last night. I also did laundry and dishes without wearing my brace (I'm recovering from tendinitis in my wrist right now), and I think I overdid it because now my hand is sore. I'm leaving when DH gets home from work for my weekly knitting group.

I want a weekly knitting group! I hate living so far out in the middle of nowhere. No one does anything fun around here!

We made chocolate chocolate chip cookies with m&ms added in (super healthy, for the toddler's sake. Ha!)

Every inch of my kitchen is covered in chocolate.

The sun just came out right at bedtime.

[gwapes]

It's wet and yucky out. We watched movies, played with blocks, jumped on the couch...

We've had over 10 inches of rain over the last few weeks. Go to CA dammit.

Seriously! If it was at all economical to do so, I would start shipping them buckets of our rain. Pretty sure those carbon emissions from the shipping would make it counter-intuitive though.

DD was up around 6ish this morning and only had a half hour nap. She put up a fight, but fell asleep in my arms at 810 with her hands covering her face. I can't wait untio her molars are all the way through her gums.

@charlotte, I hope you get that all straightened out with minimal amount of headaches.

amelandre, M&M cookies sound awesome! If you need an excuse you can always say you added the m&ms to work on color identification with your toddler
