Planning on going to a Body Combat class at the gym this morning. I'll bring Elaine to the child care which I'm a little worried about, not worried about the care givers, more that she will start crying and they won't hold her/ walk her around and I'll have to leave. Child care is the whole reason I joined the more expensive gym so I better use it!

I'm so glad it's Friday.
Our "newborn" pics are in, so I have to go pick them up tomorrow after DH gets home. My mom is slowly figuring out that we don't want to leave A with her, because I mentioned that I have a box of stuff to return and things to pick up and she was like, oh I'll watch A. I said, no I'll just wait. It's no big deal.
I have to work tomorrow and today. Blah. My son was invited to his first piñata tomorrow! He's not going cus he's still recovering and germs, but I'll drop by and give the birthday boy a gift. Is it ok to give Amazon gift cards in a 2 year olds birthday? I figure this way the mom gets what she really wants for him? Or will the boy be too crestfallen to open a gift to see a card? Advice please!
I finally got some sleep last night! 2 4 hour stretches which means I now have energy and feel good!!
I get to meet up with my friends tomorrow for shopping and lunch with no kids, which I'm super excited for
My husband is switching to second shift(they rotate monthly at the lab he works in), so we kind of have a long weekend, which will be nice. Hopefully the weather cooperates so that we can have a nice walk at the lake.

We are up and ready early since I have an appointment. Naturally she is due to eat right when I am supposed to see the doctor. I'm hoping she'll take a nice nap and last until after the appointment!
I mentioned this on motn but we applied for a new apt last weekend. We got denied bc there is an alert on my credit report for potential fraud. Apparently Discover let someone open a credit card in my name in 2007. I was 15 years old and they let "me" open a card and charge $12k immediately. They stopped paying it last year and it still has a $12k balance. So I filed a dispute and now the apt seems to believe that I've somehow stolen my own identity. Ugh.
DD2 slept from 7:30 until 2:30, ate, and then went right back to sleep until 5 (when MH left for work. I can't decide if she wakes because of that, or because she needs a snack). She had a snack and then slept until ten after 7. What is this amazing gift of sleep??!?
She has a TERRIBLE rash on her hips and on her outer butt cheeks. I *really* think this poor kid got my awful allergies and eczema. The rash doesn't look diaper rashy to me, it looks like eczema. I've switched her to the cloth but I think I need to go full time with that (I've been doing it all day, but only every other day). I've tried a ton of OTC creams and some all natural alternatives. The only think that appears to anything good is coconut oil. Coconut oil on cloth diapers -- probably not the best thing, huh?
The ladies who pray -- my friend Debbie with cancer needs more prayers, and my another friend's son (who has CP from a traumatic birth) needs prayers desperately. He's almost 5 years old and this week he started having life-threatening brain seizures. His name is Noah. THANK YOU!
Have a great day -- hoping to pop back on at nap time (I started 21 Day Fix this week, and use nap time to work out - once that's done, I'll be on here, I hope!).

Today is play date day. And I'm hosting. There will probably be 7 kids all under the age of 4. Today is a coffee day for sure. Going to try to clean and run errands too.
runningmommy519, maybe. But the dispute itself is the issue. They didn't deny us for the adverse account. They denied us bc the dispute has caused an alert on my report for stolen identity.

Boo!that sucks. Did they say how long it would take to sort out?
DS slept from 9:30-3:30 then wouldn't go back down so I got in my bed with him and of course I didn't sleep but he did. So I've essentially been up since 3:30am. Score.

I really need to wash diapers today. But I need coffee first. But the 1/4 Caffeine, 3/4 decaf, isn't helping much. I have any more and it makes the vasospasms worse so I guess I'll deal.
Also need to go grocery shopping. I have next weeks meal plan done, so I need to buy all the things. I also need to find something for this weekend. Wanted pork carnitas but its grandmas birthday and she thinks pork is the devil's meat so I guess I should save that for another time.
Or cook it anyways htuzzi324 But maybe I'm just a bitch lol
I probably will anyway. She wants to use the car to go out today and if she wastes all the gas I'm going to lose it, birthday or not. Eta, passive aggressive lose it and make pork carnitas.
If this is a taste of how my day is going to go, I'm going back to bed.
The stupid dog whit it the hall outside my daughter's room, shit all over her floor in her room, all over her bed and it is every where. I might kill the dog. Then to both dogs shredded a trash bag to est dirty diapers. Stupid fucking dogs.
I'm caught up on laundry and I have a parent teacher conference this morning. I'll be taking that opportunity to buy more pacifiers since we're down to the last one. Where the hell do they go?
Buy a wubbanub. A bit more expensive but I've never lost one!
So we bought the part we needed for the car this morning but now we can't get the old piece off to put the new one on. I reeeeeeally don't want to have to take it somewhere and pay to take it off.
Any crafty mamas out there? I'd like to do a felt Christmas tree on the wall this year for DS, so he has something to play with that isn't the actual tree and fragile ornaments. Is it really easy to make at home? I don't craft AT ALL, so assume my skill level is 0. I saw some on Etsy that I can buy already done - but maybe I can make it pretty easily with scissors, super glue, and Velcro? Anyone have any experience?
E has begun to intently stare at me anytime I eat anything. She's fascinated by me eating, it's funny. Now I have the dog and the baby staring at me eating. All I want to do is eat my breakfast in peace.
Today is Friday. Today is my grocery shopping day. Today is my one day to get out of the house. H wants to do the grocery shopping and leave me here with the baby. He put up a huge piss fit because I said I didn't want to stay home. I'm still not sure why but
1. No. Shopping is my thing. I don't trust you to come home with what we need. You will probably buy a bunch of junk food. 2. I had other places to go besides Aldi. Like goodwill to look for a piano. And once upon a child to get warmer baby clothes. And target to use my cartwheel coupons. 3. LET ME GO OUT OF THE HOUSE, DAMMIT! THIS IS MY DAY AND I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO IT.
I have on underwear that are falling off my flat ass, but I'm also wearing maternity pants, so I can't easily reach in and pull the underwear up. There is no easy way to pull them up, so I'm walking around and I can feel my underwear drooping down.
This sums up how my morning is going.
I hate droopy underwear. So much so that I buy a size smaller than I need so when they stretch they don't droop. Is this a fffc?

I used to have the nicest ass... It's soft and flat now and I'm constantly pulling my underware up too..
Also, grandma wanted to take the car this morning to do stuff because it's her birthday. I told her that's fine but I need to go grocery shopping around 1 so I don't get caught in after school traffic and ridiculous amounts of people at the store. It's almost 9 and she's still sleeping. I absolutely have to get groceries today, I'm not looking forward to going after 1, which will probably be more like 3 if she doesn't get up. Am I an asshole if I get the kids up now and go because f it? Why do I have to have a good heart? Why?

You can buy velcro with a sticky back, so no glue or sewing required. I would go to a fabric store to buy a yard of green felt to cut out the tree, and then smaller sheets to cut out the ornaments. I might do this this year too. I think sewing (even hand sewing with embroidery floss) would keep your ornaments together better than glue. My heathens would be likely to pull the pieces apart if they were glued.
Good point about the glued items coming apart in toddler hands. I can do basic sewing, like buttons or a quick stitch to hold a seam together, so hopefully I'm not getting in over my head here Thanks!
I have vacuumed, done dishes, dusted, meal planned, cleaned bathrooms, and folded laundry with another load in the dryer. I will have three baskets to put away when DH and Gwen wake up. Happy to have gotten some things done! Sitting down watching Wendy Williams and eating trail mix now, since both kids are napping and I can relax!
E has begun to intently stare at me anytime I eat anything. She's fascinated by me eating, it's funny. Now I have the dog and the baby staring at me eating. All I want to do is eat my breakfast in peace.
When they start showing interest in food that's a good thing. Pretty soon she'll start grabbing for stuff off your plate. Lol

htuzzi324 here's what will happen. Take the car now and she'll wake up five minutes after you leave. Wait for her, and she'll sleep until 12:30 and then leave.
