Everywhere but here. 8 minutes to go. I made a triple batch of cranberry sauce for DH to take to work, did all the dishes, and cleaned up the kitchen while he passed out with T on the recliner. Also, kept the fire going so the house is warm.
DNW attitude when I ask you to please take out bathroom garbage, compost, and recycling before bed. I had all 3 kids, all day. I homeschooled one, made a grocery run, got the house (sort of) in order, and had a hot dinner ready when you walked in the door.
My H insisted Monday he'd take out the kitchen garbage and recyclables for Tuesday pickup. It was overflowing. Guess who didn't do that? He also promised he'd do the dishes and clean her ABC mat yesterday while he was home with LO, even stopping me Monday night from cleaning them. Of course I came home to a bigger mess of dishes. It's frustrating. I somehow can manage when home with LO!
Busy day here! Packing for 3, loading the car, grocery store, taking a friends mom to the airport (3/3:30 hrs round trip) C needs a bath, and hopefully we will be on the road by 4:30 or 5 for a weekend away to see my dads family -not really looking forward to being in the car for another 9/10 hours but hopefully C will sleep most of it. (Not in that order)
We put up *most* of our Christmas stuff yesterday and Monday. We wanted to do the tree while my step-daughter was here with us. It's only about half-done, but I'll finish after thanksgiving. The hard part of fluffing the tree and adding the lights is finished. Husband did the outside lights as well.
OMG....S was up God knows how many times lastnight...DS tried getting up at 5:45 after I got her settled in the swing.
Got him settled back in bed and he slept till 7:30 after I had to wake S to eat before leaving to dc. DH tried giving me grief for not taking DS with me when I left, I just gave him the look of death and he said, "Nevermind, I'll take him." LOL
Here today with 19 patients and no medical assistant...AWESOME!
Its 40 degrees out today... Dh put the baby in a long sleeve shirt, sweat pants and socks and then got in the car to go to his moms...No jacket, no shoes, no hat. Who wants to bet my child gets sick by the weekend. Looks like I am going to target before going to get her to get a jacket for her. I dont even care if we have 3 at home. I am not picking my child up in this weather without proper clothing. makes me want to scream.

I also have to work today, but there was NO traffic this morning so I made in it 25min early! Which means I get to leave 25min early too! Great way to start off my "break"
Just got a text from DH, who's home with J today. Apparently, she spit up everywhere. He went to change her clothes and she had a massive poop which got all over the changing table and pad. He got all those switched, put her back up to finally change her and dress her, and then she peed everywhere. Does it make me a bad person that I think this is the funniest thing ever?

Nope! I've laughed when this happens to my H, too!
I am home today with B prepping for tomorrow and hopefully getting an estimate on my car. He does not want to take a nap though, so we'll see if I can get a shower and get out of the house.
This morning I got an email from US Air- they've changed both of our Christmas flights. Basically, we are leaving much earlier than we had originally booked for and are still arriving at the same time- giving us a 5 HOUR layover in O'Hare at Christmastime with a 6month old. DNW to be in an airport for that long with a cranky baby surrounded by tons of people with tons of germs. I am pissed. Will be calling the airlines today to see how they are going to fix this. Ugh. We've paid well over $600 a piece for these tickets. You'd think that would get you some sort of leverage, right?! So frustrated
Can I get some opinions on chiropractors? Like, is it worth it? I went for the first time on Monday and again today to go over the X-rays. He wants me to come in 3x week for 2 weeks, then 2x week for 2 weeks, and then who knows. It felt good to get adjusted, but it's a lot of time and money, and I don't know if it's really worth it...

My chiro appointments were the only way I walked from April-June while pregnant.

Since I'm still working from home and there is almost no one else at my company working today, I am strongly considering taking a shower and baking brownies.

That seems like overkill, unless you have a pretty serious injury to recover from (ie, bad whiplash). I see a chiro too, and I've never been in that often, even for whiplash.

That's what I was thinking! I don't have any injuries. Just normal (for me) back pain.
@bubbs119 thanks for the input. I was desperate last week and made the appointment on a whim. I liked that I got to see my X-rays and know what was going on, but I'm not completely sold on the whole thing.
Extra random: ikea's wine bottle ice cube tray makes perfect breastmilk cubes for the mesh feeder.
I'm so excited!! We just booked a rental for New Year's Eve with our friends in Missouri wine country. I'm SOOOO excited for a night away from the kids with ADULTS!

It's pretty quiet here at work too. We were supposed to be decorating the office for Christmas but WAAAYYY too many cooks in the kitchen so I bailed and went back to my desk. I'm currently pretending to work and car shopping. I have a new car (2013) but it's not working with this baby thing sow e are looking to get an SUV. Does anyone have any experience with Mazda specifically the CX-5 or CX-9 that they can share?

Not me, but my friend has a 2013 CX-5 and seems to really like it. I think it gets really good gas mileage, too, like ~30mpg.

That sounds like so much fun!!
I don't think we are quite ready to do overnights yet, but I am looking forward to having some adults only getaway sometime in the future.

I also have a 3 year old that apparently can't go to sleep without me now....

We used to go to Chicago every year for New Years and had a blast. Then we had DS and felt bad asking anyone to watch him, so we've either stayed home, or done something "family friendly" with friends so we could bring him. My mom offered and friends invited us out of town, so we took it!!
