Fingers crossed baby is down for several hours. I want to paint my nails. Added to my list of mommy night things since H always complains about the smell of polish and remover.
And update on my sister who did the IUI: she found out yesterday that it didn't work There are no words to describe the feelings I have for this sad situation...

Sorry to hear it keeping my fingers crossed for a future miracle baby!
I'm sitting here rocking a sleeping baby on my morning to sleep in. H made it about an hour with him and then brought him back in the bedroom because "he was getting restless." No shit he was restless, he's a crawling 9 month old that is insanely curious. This is what I deal with everyday. I know H is still getting over all of his sickness from last week, but I'm a little pissed that he's laying in bed asleep right now while I had to get up and go play with S until he was tired enough for his first nap. It's the one morning a week that I don't have to be the primary parent. Ugh...sorry for the rant.
Ugh that really sucks and sounds like what my H pulls all the time. It's always something. Waste od a perectly good sleep in!

I went to our small library branch's book sale and got so many books. I really need to replace that new book case that Target messed up (they sent the wrong color).
Then DH and I got our flu shots today. My arm is so sore, ugh.
We came home and put up our outside Christmas decorations. I'm sure Pape were setting wtf as they drove by, but we want to get or time's worth out of it!
Finally, DS sat up for a really long time! Yay! I sat him down in the grass and he was playing with it and having a good time.
Thanks for all the hugs and nice words everyone. My sister is pretty sad considering she's been through so much already (like most who struggle with infertility). I offered to be a surrogate if she ever needs. I think that'd be an awesome thing but I think they will do IVF next and go from there.

Busy weekend so far. Drove up to my parents today to drop off the dogs for the week. We fly to SC tomorrow morning and I haven't really started packing yet. Putting DD to bed and then trying to get it over with quick. I just don't wanna do it!

Quote that sums up my day, courtesy of my BFF's four year old daughter (they're visiting from Texas): "I'll be five in August. Like, BAM, I'll be five! Then BOOM, I'll be fifteen!"
Told my MIL a couple of ideas for Christmas gifts for G (books and those Pitterpat shoes) so noe I'm trying to get her to just order and have them shipped.
G crashed hard last night and DH forgot to turn on the monitor, so I woke at 2 to a screaming baby who had a full diaper and was super hungry and upset. No idea how long he'd been up, but considering how he snuggled in when I picked him up, it must have been awhile. He went back down after an hour and woke up at 6 like usual. So, he got at least 11 hours of sleep last night.
I've got my duck drying for dinner tonight. I'm trying a new recipe since I can't find the one I usually use.
Got DS's main Christmas present and his main birthday present. There was a buy 3 for 2 sale so I got him the vtech walker for Christmas and the vtech activity table for his birthday. The third thing is additional animals for the toot toot safari park which I'm looking for a good deal on.
So lately V won't settle after his MOTN wakeups. He goes quietly back into the crib after nursing, but then wakes up five minutes later and is pretty much inconsolable. I usually end up nursing and rocking after all my other soothing attempts fail. I'm hoping this is just a short phase?
Also my work schedule is changing, to where I have two early days in the office. Any tips for getting the baby ready for the sitter two hours before he normally wakes up?
We are trying to paint DD1'S bedroom this weekend but the girls are not cooperating so the family project has now turned into me downstairs with the kids (watching football; go bears!) and DH up doing the room stuff...

DS's pitterpat shoes came in! They're super precious and seem to work well; by that I mean even in the car seat he hasn't pulled them off like he does socks, and when I tried them on in the house he could army crawl just fine.

Enchiladas in the oven. I cooked pork chops in red chile and we had green chile sauce to go on top so I guess they'd qualify as Christmas style (red and green chile) rather than just green chile enchiladas.

H and I are supposed to have some romantic time tonight provided DS decides to sleep. I hope this isn't going to turn into Netflix and chill where we actually only watch Netflix.

I'm glad you like them so far! DD can get them off, but must like them because she keeps them on for long periods of time (unlike just socks!)
