Looks like we are having a lazy morning. K was happily playing in her crib with a stuffed doll so I left her there while I made her breakfast. When I went in to get her she had fallen back asleep. I guess the gym will have to wait until later. Darn.
Also in order to win this notch bet I need to lose 2.5 pounds by Sunday. The same 2.5 pounds I have needed to lose for the past two weeks. Stupid scale!

I'm right there with you. Our scales are such dicks.

I am sure my scale is wrong. I have to lose more weight now than when I started?! (Kidding. Mostly. Sorta.)
I slept horrible last night. I couldn't fall asleep because I was thinking of how much our lives will change when I start work and dd starts daycare. Then I worried about a million unlikely things that could go wrong. Then I second guessed a billion decisions. When I finally fell asleep dd woke up and it took 2 hours to get her down again. Wtf. Not cool dd, let's get nights like that out of our system before mom goes back to work.

jellykat2 sorry about your bad night. Daycare is going to be great, Jelly Girl! Dd will love it. I promise. They are at the age where it's really a lot of fun for them. But in bad news, dd will not realize she shouldn't torture you in your sleep. These babies are a little cruel.
This is the second morning in a row A got up at 4 am. She took a bottle and went right back to sleep but I couldn't fall back asleep, plus side I enjoyed the quiet time to read a book. Thankfully today I get to go back to sleep once dd goes to daycare since I work tonight.

It will be an adjustment but I bet DD will absolutely love daycare and being able to play with the other kids.

M slept till 4:20 and was ready for the day. I had to wake up at 5 anyways so it could have been worse. It's sad that waking up in the 4s is 'not bad.'
It's H's birthday today but he's so low key we probably won't do much. I might use it as an excuse to bring in food for dinner. Is it bad I have been thinking about dinner since 5am?
Also. I had a few little weird pains that reminded me of round ligament pain in early pregnancy. Fuck. I may have to POAS. I am not baby crazy like you notches, M is plenty of fun for me by himself. So I'm crossing all my gingers that those are just random pains and I'm not in making babies town again.
I'm having kind of a rough morning. Last night we noticed there was some paint bubbling in the bathroom. Then I was looking for our baby proofing kit and I noticed that the floor was damp under the pack n play which we have set up as a changing table in DD's room. So we pulled it out and not only was the floor damp but the wall had mold on it. It was against the other side of the bathroom wall with the bubbling paint so it looks like there must be a pipe with a slow leak in the wall. I'm pretty freaked out about it. I mean it's upsetting enough to discover that we have a mold problem, especially considering that it's in my kid's room, but I figure if it's wet on both sides of the wall like that that they'll probably have to tear half of our apartment apart to fix it.
We just decided to stay here another year or so and I just cleaned everything so this timing is crap. We also discovered all of this while we were in the process of building DD a new play area in the living room so our furniture is all pulled out and it looks crazy in here. Not to mention that we're still unpacking from vacation so even though it's clean in here it looks like a cluttered disaster. Ugh.
Now I'm feeling like I want to move again, except I really don't. I just made the commitment to work more and I got daycare all set up and all of that was with the intent of living here for at least another 15 or so months. This sucks

staryb Aghh!! That sucks so much. We had mold in our bathroom about 6 months ago. I was super freaked out because M was so little. I found out that it really isn't as dangerous to be exposed to for a short period as you think. That being said, I'm sure this will be a PITA. They will probably have to dry out or rip out your floor/walls. Be glad you don't have to pay since that crap costed us thousands even though we were insured. I hope your apt is fast about the repairs. I'm so sorry you're facing this annoyance.
jellykat2 sorry you had a rough night friend. It'll take a couple days but you and dd will develop a new routine once you start work (and hopefully sleep better playing all day at daycare!)
sweetsurprise Happy birthday to your H! And fingers crossed it's just your body messing with you!!!

Thanks I know she'll do fine. I have a tendency to work myself up and cause anxiety thinking of absurd what if scenarios. It's a bad habit I can't break.

This is what I'm excited for most, her to have interaction with other kids.
I'm not looking forward to the adjustment period, or her crying when I leave her. Who knows, maybe she won't care. And then I'll be sad because of that. Haha!

Oh no! Ugh, I'm sorry. That sounds stressful. However, the bright side is that this should be something your landlord fixes and you won't have to deal with the cost of repairs. It will be a PITA while they fix it, I'm sure, but with the water leaking I'm sure they won't delay. It sucks to come back from vacation to that though.
sweetsurprise - I hope your H has a good birthday! My H is the same way (low key) about birthdays. I would absolutely use it as an excuse to have some yummy food.

I'm mostly worried about the inconvenience of it all. I doubt that the mold is especially dangerous it's just unfortunate that it's in DD's room of places. On the bright side I don't think that it's been there too long. The floor in her room wasn't wet before vacation and I'm pretty sure we've moved the pack in play within the last month or so. DH also just cleaned up under the bathroom sink a few weeks ago and didn't notice anything and now there's mold under there too. I'm pretty sure that you're right and they'll have to rip out the wall but I am grateful that it's not our responsibility to pay for it. I just worry that we may need to stay with someone while the work is being done so hopefully they'll be quick about it!

Mine doesn't care when I leave her at daycare. If I walk away from her in the house, all bets are off.

Thanks, hopefully they'll be quick about it. We don't pay water so it's really on them the longer that they leave it.
