I'm going to brag about my BIL for a second. In tonight's All Star Game Yadier Molina and Salvador Perez are wearing the gold protective gear he designed!
missys, that's really cool! How does one become a designer for Rawlings?
Rawlings headquarters are in St. Louis where we're from. He played baseball in HS and college and knew that would be a dream job to work there so after graduating he applied and worked in customer service. He worked his way up when job openings became available and now he's a product designer in charge of his own line. Perez wears his stuff a lot but it's a big deal for Yadi to wear something other than basic red leather. We are all so excited to see them wearing the gear tonight!
Happy Cow Appreciation Day to all you Chick fil a fans. DS, DD, and I went mid morning and got our two free kids meals and adult combo. DD hasn't exactly graduated to chicken nuggets yet so now I have lunch for tomorrow in the fridge.

DS has started this fun new thing where he will only play in the floor if I'm right next to him. He doesn't want to actually play with me, just wants me to be close enough for him to reach out and touch me every now and then. It's making getting things done around the house very difficult.
A little MIA this week. We're at a family cottage this week which is super fun but DD1 becomes quite a handful. It's hard for the fun to stop for nap and bedtime.
Hi ladies! Working on my Amazon wish list for Prime Day while little bit plays in the floor. Our ENT consult for possible tongue tie yesterday said he didn't see anything worth clipping, so yay! We're expecting nasty storms here today, so staying close to home.

I come to you from the bike at the gym. I hate the gym but trying to get my 12 visits in this month so insurance will reimburse me $20. Still not sure if my misery is worth the money.
LO's red eye yesterday was from the blocked tear duct that won't go away. Ped said its a little infected so we got eye drops. Trying to put drops in a 5 month old's eye is an adventure.
My baby took 2 good naps so far today, hoping for a good 3rd nap. I want to start adding new stuff to my teachers pay teachers store to try to combat the huge day care bill that's looming. And we want a new car. So if he sleeps, that's my plan.

So DD is all over the place, rolling crawling etc keeping me busy. She's also decided that naps suck and she shouldn't have to take one. Send nap dust asap please. Lol. I've gotten NOTHING done

I remember you posting the other day she was starting to crawl! Eek! How sad/exciting for her! Our babies are growing so fast.
Just scored a BOB jogging stroller on a local yard sale site for $50! It's used and imperfect, but I'm so excited! I didn't want to shell out a ton for something I can't use for too long anyway!

Yeah I'm having some feels about it. I'm happy yet sad. She took a 15 min nap...so I have to cook dinner while she's in the walker... Waffles from scratch, bacon and eggs... I just need a mimosa lol. I can't believe how fast all of our babies are growing, just a little while ago we were all wanting our babies out lol. ETA: sleep deprived
I wanted DH to take LO to the library for infant story time on tuesday mornings and he told our neighbours about it. This morning the wife told DH her nanny and baby A were at the library, she wanted DH to meet the nanny. DH didn't see baby A - at story time they always start with a greeting song to greet each baby, they didn't sing about baby A. DH asked me if he should tell our neighbours, I said, of course. I'd want to know if I were in their shoes - god knows what else the nanny had been hiding from them? DH reported back that the neighbours (the wife) was really upset, nanny was fired right away.
In DH's words, there is so much soap opera in the life of a SAH.

Hi all.
Work sucked today.
But I am now officially registered for the glass slipper challenge at Disney for February. Yay! (It's a 10k Saturday and a 1/2 marathon on the Sunday). Now... Time to Train again but it is WAY too hot to train in Nola I will eventually.

Per my other thread, I ended up trying out the Bob sport utility and loved it. So I got one today too! Yay for smooth jogs!
Oh awesome! Looking forward to it (and not having an excuse to get in the way at times)!

I am very impressed with you!
Thanks but I am really slow. I hope I can speed up a little bit training post baby

I've made up a song about DS's car seat lovie to the tune of the Kimmy Schmidt theme song. Now I have a more LO appropriate version to sing when it's stuck in my head.
