Let's hear it!

[lilyelayne]

Immediately after posting this I had a moment thinking I'd put the wrong day. Convinced momentarily it was Sunday.

Finally taking DS's 6 month photos today! Squeaking them in before he turns 7 months.

[aggiebug]

I would believe you if you told me the wrong day today. My week is all whacky. H has a 3 day work week this week starting today so I am thrown for a loop.

Not much here just going to try and adult unlike yesterday.

[aggiebug]

Hahaha badw0lf that made me lol.

City chickens are actually a major issue in some areas:/

[aggiebug]

Farm animals lesson for the day:

Sheep say baaa
Goats say maaa

Your welcome.

My baby STTN! It has been so long since that happened and she has been sleeping so poorly lately. Last night we flipped the bed time routine so she had the boob before we read our books. She has consistently been waking around 10 or 11 every night but she went straight through to 5:30 this morning!

I'm glad for the sleep, I am not looking forward to today. On the train now on my way into work, but from what I've heard it's going to be a very short day and everyone will be sent home some time this morning.

And pigs say La, La, La! At least that's what Sandra Boyton tells me. 

No no you say that isn't right....


I pinky puffy Sandra Boyton.

Apparently I have lots of random thoughts today. This is what happens when I have a nice calm morning to myself;)

I really like the "that's not my...(kitty,dog,dinosaurs etc) books for dd. They are touch and feel and pretty cute.

[cougarette]

Where oh where did my sleeping baby go? I think I slept a total of 3 hours last night. Everytime we'd get DS asleep he'd wake up as soon as he got in the crib. He hasnt done this since the 3 week growth spurt. And that only lasted a night. He's been doing this bullshit since Saturday night.

Trying to get S down for his morning nap so that I can enjoy my coffee while it's hot. My mom and I are headed to one of those big consignment sales tonight. I was able to get into the first mom's pre sale, but it doesn't start until 7:00 tonight. Praying that S will sleep in the wrap the whole time bc it is right at his bedtime. Since he still won't take a bottle, I have no way of leaving him with DH . Fx I find some good deals. I need to dig up that Christmas list thread and write down some of the ideas.

[PikoPiko]

What does the fox say?

[PikoPiko]

Not 7am yet, baby isn't up but I am. I'm sick yet again. This is LO's last week at that bad daycare. I want to keep him at home, but I doubt I'm in any shape to take care of him. Maybe I'll grab him if I feel better after noon.

I've been sick for a month. Daycare germs are evil. So glad this week is DH's turn to get LO at night.

[pitdigger]

I need to find 'Where's My Cow?'

"Is this my cow? No! That's Foul Ol' Ron."

Sleep was in spurts and chunks, no long wake ups, but we're going back to the 'no night feed before 1 am' rule.

So, you'd think that a cool, rainy morning would mean I wouldn't sweat like a pig at the gym. You would be wrong if that's what you thought. I am so gross after any gym/exercise session, it's freaking ridiculous. Good thing I never tried to pick up guys at any gym I went to.

I'm buying new clothes tomorrow since it's a rest day. And I remembered that I have a big gift card for a store here I need to use, so my mom is buying me some new clothes and I'm going to check out a couple of other stores. I'm going to make a thread for fun.

@holachica, jealous of your lunch!

Little Man has fall pictures at school today! I'm so excited and can't wait to see them.

We had some friends over last night for dinner before they move. Then I promptly passed out at 9. I woke up this morning and our neighbor texted us. She's out of town and her and her husband have decided to get a divorce. She wants us to watch her house to make sure he doesn't take all of their stuff. The funny thing is that the husband went out of town too and he texted my DH to see if he would watch the house to make sure she doesn't come and take all of the stuff. My husband and I are currently trying to figure out a polite way to tell them to keep us out of that drama.

I know the divorce rate is high among people in my husband's career path, but this is the fifth make that sixth seventh (I keep remembering people) couple we've known to get a divorce in the five years since we've moved here. REALLY?!

[aggiebug]

@kaydee0402 yikes. That stinks that they are dragging you into the middle of it. What line is work is your H in if you dint mind sharing.

Yeah, it does, but it's not the first time a friend has tried to drag us into their divorce.  We've just learned to stay out of it. 

And per his request, I'm not supposed to share what he does :/

[aggiebug]

kaydee0402 perfectly understandable of your H, but of course I am so curious

My profession has one of the highest suicide rates I think I prefer divorce.

[kaydee0402]

aggiebug, it's nothing exciting, I promise

And holy guacamole! I would prefer divorce too.

Oh man I'm feeling so lazy this morning! DD and I are both still trying to get over these colds but DD hates having her nose wiped. Every once in a while she'll stop squirming and act like "oh ok, this isn't so bad". Spit up doesn't bother me, blow outs don't bother me, but something about a boogery baby....yuck!

Oh so I have a question. DD will mimic me when I say mama, but that doesn't count as a first word, right? Not until she's using it and seems to know what it means, right?

[lilyelayne]

badw0lf we take one monthly pic (with cell phone) in the glider with two stuffed animals. My sister & SILs got us newborn & 3/6/9/12 month photos with a pro photographer as a baby shower gift, which is what we're doing today.
I like to try to capture what DS likes to do or has learned since the last session, and then the season if I can.
So activities: sitting up to play, rolling around, self feeding (this should be fun if he cooperates!), being worn in the wrap.
Season: football team onesies, overalls. We have a few leaves on the ground so maybe work those in. If I had a Halloween costume worked out he'd wear that but of course I don't.

I really need to get some of my cell phone pics printed. I have so many good ones.

Also please tell me F is going as a mad scientist for Halloween! His hair is perfect for it!

[lilyelayne]

badw0lf also T&Ps for your appointment!
dmorgendorffer yay for sleep! Thinking about you at work today. Hope it's smooth.
cougarette hey life twin. DS has had the worst sleep of his life lately. But now he has a tooth, so...?
pitdigger gyms are not for picking people up based on scent. I once had to get off the elliptical and go throw up because the dude next to me had poured on cologne to try to mask his workout smell. I wasn't even pregnant, so no extra sensitive nose or stomach. It was just that awful.
@holachica I want to come! Love tacos!
kaydee0402 so much drama in your life right now. Hugs.
tortor4 I wouldn't consider that a first word but idk the official guidelines

[kaydee0402]

lilyelayne, I know right?! I'm blaming it on the moon. I'm usually boring, promise!

EDIT: I can't spell

So we had friends over during the weekend and had a fire and made s'mores. Of course I've been having microwave s'mores with the left overs since then. I weighed myself this morning, dreading the number, and I went down a pound! So now I'm convinced the trick to losing weight is to have one (or two...or three) microwave s'more a day. You're welcome!

[dreemkin]

In other news: I am now 0-3 in my IL fantasy team. I just want to stop playing. It's no fun when you keep losing. It's bad enough I'm a bears fan. Andplusalso, I was the one who initiated a league and probably care the most about it.

[pitdigger]

lilyelayne, Scent was never the issue for me; it's that I sweat like a pig no matter the ambient temperature and am not a glamorous exerciser.

Oh and apparently I know nothing about farm animals.... I keep hearing this crazy sound since we took out the air conditioners. It's been driving me crazy. It sounds like a seagull.

Turns out it's a chicken! Or a rooster? WTH? I do not live in a rural area.... who has a chicken in the "city".

Chickens are turning into a status thing along with the organic, whole foods movement. My realtors were saying that it's becoming an issue in the Chicago burbs bc there are hardly any rules and regs about it which I'm suspecting will change soon lol.

This convo just makes me think of Friends when Joey and Chandler had Chick and Duck!

[danitaec]

aggiebug, We have the "that's not my" for tractor and horse. M loves to pet the horse's nose; it's the cutest thing!

[danitaec]

Husband is out of town for work, and I have a rehearsal tonight. My mom gets to do alllll the parenting today, which makes me feel like MOTY. I need to play the lottery so I can SAH.

I use the same numbers every night when they show the "Cash 3" winning #s in between Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy (yes I am an old...), and sometimes I get 2/3. I'd probably just be wasting my dollar, or however much it costs.
