I've already been up two hours, might as well start spam!
SIL is having a big garage sale so we'll probably head over before DS's morning nap.

Probably a post and run. I'll try and check back in this evening. Currently waiting on MIL to get here so we can hit up some yard sales. It looks like S is going to plateau for a bit in 12mos, so we need to get a few more items. I had been buying a blend of 12 & 18mos because I wasn't really sure what size he would be once it turns off cold. The low for next week is supposed to get down to like 35. Definitely starting to feel like fall here.

Hope you ladies have a wonderful Saturday!

Good morning! I can now act peppy since it is after 8 and I have had caffeine. Oh and dad is on child duty at the current moment.





I hear ya on the early wake up lilyelayne.

Lots of errands to run today. Dh is in Baton Rouge for the game. That's about it.

[taberbtb]

M(and F)OTY here. DH is going down with me on this one.

B woke up last night at 3am and wouldn't go back to sleep. She's wasn't miserable, just awake. I tried rubbing her back and shushing her for 45 min and she would pass out then wake back up as soon as I hit the door. Finally DH fed her at 4am and she slept until 6:30. DH put her in bed with me when he left for work and she fell back asleep until 8.

I picked her up and the stench coming from her was unreal. When I changed her I could tell it had been there awhile. Oops. Sorry baby, I don't know how mommy and daddy missed that.

To be fair, it's been months since she pooped in the night. I would have never guessed that.

DS had his second flu shot this morning. He barely made a peep!

I think we're going to the BRU Halloween event today. Anyone else going? It's supposed to be at all locations.

OSU/Penn State game tonight. It's gonna be cold! My parents are coming down to watch DS.

[greenpony33]

Morning ladies! Post and run for me as well. Today is the big rival college football game, MSU vs UoM, it's serious yo! We are going to a party that friends have every year for it. DS is coming with us since we couldn't find a sitter (everyone has plans for the game). I am slightly worried because we will be gone all day and heading home around bed time. No one else there has kids, the people hosting are pregnant, so I just hope everyone is cool with E there (I am sure they will be, they're all my friends since HS ). Their get togethers are known for getting rowdy and I said something DH about the possibility we'd have to leave early and he said that wasn't an option, he NEEDS to watch the whole game- well we'll see how that turns out if E gets over stimulated. We're bringing his walker and PnP so fx all goes well.

I just really really hope MSU wins, otherwise DH will be a crabass the rest of the weekend.

taberbtb -DS has just now started pooping MOTN with the snot/diarrhea stuff he's got going on. I always feel bad when it happens too because who know how long it's been there, hopefully they don't continue it.

[Deleted]

taberbtb I've done that too! DD almost never poops MOTN so it's way down on my list of guesses.

greenpony33 GL! Both with the game and with DS!

My sister is coming to visit today and is already driving me crazy with all her questions: "Can I borrow a party top/a blazer/your bus card?" She thinks she's told me her plans for the weekend (if she's staying with us or with a friend), but she hasn't. My mother told me.
I realize it sounds pretty tame but it's like this every. single. time. she comes to visit. It gets old quick. I feel like I need better tools for how deal with her without getting frustrated.

[lilyelayne]

taberbtb when DS's diarrhea started, he hadn't pooped MOTN in months. It was, unfortunately, way down on my list of guesses too.
greenpony33 hope the game & party go well. I'd be more worried about the drive home than anything. My kid would probably be cheerful & entertained while there and immediately realize he's overstimulated & tired when we walked out.
@alyllyra sorry your sister is frustrating. Hope the visit goes well! Can you make a few concrete plans and tell them to her, so you have some mutual expectations of at least a few shared events? Even if that's "we're having lunch at home tomorrow - I'm cooking/picking up XYZ." Instead of playing everything by ear & waiting on her to communicate when she obviously doesn't.

[Deleted]

lilyelayne Thanks! We have made some concrete plans (seeing each other today, brunch on Monday), I just didn't know she was staying here Sunday to Monday. And the reason she needs to borrow stuff is because she's already lost two outfits from her luggage so that doesn't bode well for my clothes... But you are right that I need to communicate more on my end. Hopefully she'll pick up on the trend

[aggiebug]

Enjoy the game greenpony33 I hope LO does well. I will say your H needs to get over it a little. If LO needs to leave LO needs to leave, being a parent isn't always fun. I am dealing with the same things. We are going to three football games in November I asked what happens when DD flips out because it's legitimately possible and I am not spending 3hrs trying to console and upset child.

Currently napping with with DS. I should be working out or something but I am still sick and baby snuggles are better for healing. ☺️

Truth! Enjoy the snuggles

[tortor4]

Add DD to the diarrhea club. Poor thing had the hardest time going to sleep last night. She finally fell asleep in bed with us so around midnight I took her into her room because she typically sleeps much better in her crib. She woke up at 3am with diarrhea that leaked onto her sleep sack so back to bed with us she went. DH has forced overtime today so it's just the two of us. I see a lot of laundry and diapers in our future today lol.

[lilyelayne]

GeekBeagle we don't have a BRU or I'd probably be going. I got the email this morning. Hope you have a good time & get some cute stuff!

tortor4 oh no - hope LO gets better soon!

Edit- hit post too soon

[2mrsks (mrs&mrsk)]

Sitting in a parking lot waiting for ds to wake up so we can go to the fall festival.... Here's a pic from earlier today

[tortor4]

2mrsks (mrs&mrsk) omg he looks too cool for his own good! What a little doll baby!!

[babycfeb2015]

Anyone else feel like their newborn was easier then their 8 mon old? The last month has been rough Im ready for my happy non teething/wonderweeking/clingy baby back

[GeekBeagle]

2mrsks (mrs&mrsk) R has great style!

[GeekBeagle]

lilyelayne We ended up going. It honestly wasn't that exciting, but DS won a pumpkin trick-or-treat bag in the raffle. He was actually one of the oldest there. Loys of tiny, tiny babies.

Yes! Not only the teething/wonderweeking/clingy but DD being mobile makes things so much harder.

[duckker]

Yay, SPAM! I'm kind of amazed by the fact that people have regular weekend plans. Lately I'm so beat down by Saturday that my primary goals include: to remain in pajamas, drink at least one cup of coffee while it is hot, and get at least something around this house cleaned. So far, so good. Did two loads of laundry, changed the sheets on the PnP, washed our sheets, and picked up everything on the floor in anticipation of vacuuming. My life is righteous. Babygirl went down for her nap about two hours later than usual, so I'm hoping it's a long one. I should be sleeping. Instead I'm watching Bar Rescue. And eating another bowl of sugar cereal.

Might try to get a hike in later this afternoon/evening w DH and baby. He leaves at 4:30 tomorrow morning for the week. I think it will be okay--especially since he will be home Friday night, so maaaaaybe I'll still get to sleep a little on Saturday morning?

Are all the sick babies/mommas doing better today? badw0lf, snuggling totally burns calories. Lots of them.

Amen to all this. I miss my angel baby who loved to sleep at night. Plus it is entirely possible that I've done some damage in my rib area lugging my heavy clinger around.

This post is coming to you from intermission at our matinee show. Sad I'm missing football, and sad that I'll have to pump in the car between shows. But our show is a ton of fun to play so there's that. Also, being here means I don't have to be hanging out with the in-laws, which is what my husband and baby are having to do. Silver lining!

[aggiebug]

danitaec if I was nearby I would come watch you!

[dreemkin]

Post now, read later. Flight to AZ went well. Left the chilly midwest behind! Will be a busy week of fun!

[dreemkin]

Oh and go Cubs tonight!

[cougarette]

I think I have some kind of sinus thing going on. My head had been hiring the lady two days and today I've been sneezing and have a runny nose. Ugh, the pressure is getting intense.

Meanwhile we got DS's costume today. It's a pumpkin. GeekBeagle I meant to go to the BRU event, but didn't realize it was today.

[mishka29]

Uggggggjhhhh. DH and I just spent 2 hours cleaning the basement after our washing machine leaked everywhere. You know those little drains you have in the floor? Yeah the water went everywhere but there!

Boxes of clothes were just exploding they were so wet. Luckily there was a big chunk of carpet that managed to soak up a bunch of the water. What a fucking mess. Painful.

[lilyelayne]

duckker man DH and I used to watch Bar Rescue all the time. I'd forgotten about it.
babycfeb2015 I go back and forth on newborn v now. I loooooove how interactive he is but he is very draining & grumpy.
danitaec hope the rest of the shows went well! Sounds awesome!
