Monday, and killing the to-do lists..

[wegrowsheep]

I ordered some pics for Christmas cards yesterday, and did grocery shopping for a month's worth of meals. DH and T went with me, and the big kids did campfires and gingerbread houses building with my parents.

Today is appt making phone calls, catching up on laundry, homeschooling, and hopefully smuggling toys to the goodwill boxes.

How's your week starting?

[silv3rlining]

So far my to do list includes making my to do list...lol.

Actually I've semi meal planned already.. so I need to grocery shop. We're also already in the middle of playing catch up with laundry. And basically the whole house needs cleaned since we had company all last week.

My to do list is off the charts today too. Let me turn my thread to a gif party.

Simultaneous Monday posts! We may need a drinking thread...

For the month in general I need to:

Take C for her hip ultrasound tomorrow, 6 month checkup the 9th
Shop - stuff for here nad shipping things for family back home
Dh is out of town in 2 weeks for a week so I will be doing all our packing for our trip

Gotta get a sitter for the cats while we are gone
Put a little christmas up
Arrange hotels and a rental car, meeting with everyone to see the baby back home
Clean my house before we go
try not to buy ALL.THE.THINGS for the baby for Christmas

No time for to-do lists; it's my birthday!

LO and I are going to get all my free things today.

[mrsmonogrammed]

I'm TRYING to kill my to-do list of buying a convertible seat at target online today, but the site has "high traffic" and won't load-__-

Besides that, narrowing down Christmas buys for everyone on my list and actually do real work stuff. Blah.

Happy Birthday erbear!

Happy Monday ladies!! Went to work for about an hour C free this morning. Will probably go back later this afternoon for a little while. I have to go to the bank and get cashiers checks for closing TOMORROW! I'm sooo excited closing day is finally here! Also need to do some laundry and unpack from the long weekend away. Tonight is also boot camp. I'm also trying not to buy a million things for C for Christmas. Hopefully I can place my Amazon order today and be done shopping for my nieces.

[erbear]

I did ship-to-store today at target with no problem.

I just realized I have 15% off registry coupons. I wonder if they'd stack the 15% off online & 15% off registry & 5% red card?

I'm so confused with two Monday threads! I have so much on my to do list. Laundry, cleaning, assembling new highchair, checking work emails, grocery shopping... If I get two of those done I'll be happy.

But more importantly, Oscar is six months old today!




Edited to add a throwback to his 1-month pic!

Happy birthday erbear!! Hope you have a great day!

Happy 6 months to Cole's birthday buddy Ocsar carolyngrace

[tiffbot]

Happy birthday erbear!!

H had to work late tonight but it's for a school function so I'll take the kids there after supper for a little visit and check out what's going on.

I'm getting excited that gifts we ordered are starting to show up at our house or showing shipped. So fun!

[carolyngrace]

sabrinaml, happy 6 months to Cole!!

erbear, Happy birthday! Where are you going for free stuff??

The more I think about it, the more I want to get a planner. I keep forgetting to do things and then I also forget when I do things that I do on a monthly basis and I just feel so scatterbrained lately. I just don't know when I would have the time to sit down and you know, plan...

I gave up on my planner. I use a wall calendar now (as opposed to just having it for the pretty pictures before, lol).

I was afraid this would happen. Luckily (?) I was up at 4 with LO so I ordered her car seat then.

T tried to be up then also. I sat with him til about 5, and made DH take him for 30 minutes so I could sleep a little more before he left for work.

I've scheduled dentist appts, double checked the boys' dr appt time, and the animals are fed and watered. Currently feeding T down for naptime, then LAUNDRY.

Happy birthday erbear!

Got a message from daycare this morning that they need a certified copy of his birth certificate. While this is probably something I should've known to provide, I didnt. And have been slacking on ordering copies. So now we get to get bundled up early and go down to get a copy or three.

Happy birthday erbear!

They won't stack the 15% and 15% at Target. Boo. But I did order carseats and a video monitor for my mom for Christmas.

Last week we got a $650 bill from the pediatrician saying Owen doesn't have health insurance. I checked the insurance website and he's listed so I called today. Sure enough his coverage stopped September 30?! Wth? Sounds like I get to make a lot of phone calls to sort this out.

[hannahl201477]

My to-do list is forever long. Have about 3 loads to fold and put away. But so far I have watched 2 Christmas movies instead...

Uugg stuff like that is my worst nightmare, I hope it gets sorted quickly and easily!

[jessila]

I called insurance and they said that HR cancelled O's policy. Uh. What?
Yay for human errors. The Dr's office said I probably have a month until interest starts on the account. So, hopefully I sort it out fast.

This happened with DS1. We got a huge bill, and the insurance explanation was that they couldn't read the fax we sent to confirm his coverage. But they didn't bother calling us to tell us that...

carolyngrace Sephora, Ulta, Starbucks, and Godiva!

3 Loads of laundry, washed dried, folded, sorted. Phone calls and appt stuff done. Dinner plan, done. Kitchen less of a disaster, done. Children fed lunch, and baby on nap #2. KILLING IT.

[musicfrk2002]

Nothing like getting 2 miles from daycare and realizing you forgot to put diapers in the diaper bag. Emergency run to kmart. J sat in the cart pretty well, other than sliding around a bit from the seat being a bit slippery against his pants. Will probably bring along a blanket next time.
