Ugh dreading bringing S to NJ today and seeing how he does in a car for 60-75 minutes. I really hope this trip to see my colleagues makes me a bit more excited to return to work, because right now I'm not there yet.
My rainbow arrived 10/15/14.

Potty training is going to kill me. DD refuses to keep a diaper on but also refuses to take her underwear off. She sits on the potty and pees right through her panties. Also instead of actually using the toilet she pees or poops on the floor. For real I'm at my wits end with this shit[/qupote]
Can you put her diaper under her undies until she figures it out?
She rips every single diaper off. She did just get up from the table and go pee IN HER POTTY. I'll take the small victories as they come. I knew there would be floor accidents I guess I wasn't sure of how many, we aren't doing the pull-ups at all so for now it's bare bottom. My oldest was easy to train so in my head it should be easy the second time too.
Totally made a smoothie this morning too with some bananas,blueberries, strawberries we had that had to be used... Threw in some oats and then... Some coconut gelato...don't judge me lol
I have one most morning that is strawberries, pineapple, blueberry,spinach, flax seed, and Greek yogurt. So good.
Hugs, coffee, and feel better vibes to all in need.
DS decided to wake up for kicking and chatting time at 1:30 am. It's becoming a trend. Last night I just let him go his thing while I laid next to him with my eyes closed -- only took 20 minutes for him up wear himself out and want to nurse to sleep. Calling it a win, especially in comparison to the 1.5 hr parties he's been wanting to have in the MOTN.
Checking out new daycare option 2 later today. Keeping my fingers crossed.
I am waiting for my sofa to come. It is meant to be delivered today so we cleared out our living room. Still not here, so I am sat on the floor. They haven't answered me about an approximate time slot. It is making me ragey.
Last night I left on my first business trip since DS. So far it has been super stressful. Chicago got an inch or two of snow during rush hour, so the cab that I ordered the day before was an hour late picking me up. None of the other can companies I called had cabs to send, DH wasn't home to drive me, and I couldn't drive myself because I needed to leave our only car at home so DH can do daycare drop off and pickup.
I had just enough time to pump at the airport ( family/companion restroom ftw) before they started boarding. Then we were delayed an hour on the plane. I didn't get to the hotel until 12:45 and then had to pump before I could pass out.
DH sent me an update that DS cried inconsolably for 45 minutes before DH finally got him to sleep (not CIO, just crying while DH tried to rock him).
Now I realized that I didn't bring any nice bras, only the Target sleep/nursing bra that I wore on the plane. It will definitely poke out from the neckline if my dress shirts.
Sorry your trips been so stressful. I get texts like that from DH when I'm at work and it breaks my heart that there isn't anything I can do. Hope they have a better day together today.
Just had to pick DS up from school early as he was inconsolably crying and screaming. His teachers said it seemed like he was in pain but he wouldn't talk to anyone. I now have all the sads because I know how upsetting it is to be stuck at school, sick and unable to explain what is wrong.
Hopefully I can figure out what's wrong and the day improves.

Aww LB, I hope you can snuggle up with DS and I hope he feels better!
It's only 3:30 here. I often wonder what it's like to sleep. My LO has never been a unicorn, not once. Le sigh.
In some what good news, I visited my grandma last night, and she seemed pretty ok. I guess a lot of her loopy-ness (like gibberish texting me) was due to them putting her on Ativan. Once they took her off she was normal again. I guess they decided it's not pneumonia, but she was or is in severe respiratory distress. And they're still doing tests trying to find out wtf is wrong. But when I saw her yesterday she was sitting up and being her normal spunky self, pissed that they won't give her extra creamer with her coffee. Thank you all so much for your T&Ps yesterday, it meant a lot. I feel so much better after visiting her and I'm keeping positive that she'll make a full recovery.
I am glad she is more like her old self, and Fx they can figure out what is wrong.
OMG the news is making me so stabby this morning over the "vaccine debate" they interviewed a family from Boston who believes that a healthy diet will prevent these illnesses. She has 3 kids and none of them are vaccinated. I know all of this isn't new at all but it just makes me so mad especially on a day that I woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Turning the news off now.
I really was hoping that all this business with the measles would be enough to scare some of these idiots and wake them up a little..but no...
I forgot my makeup in the car, usually I multitask and put it on while nursing LO. I guess I'll try and put it on in the parking lot outside work. I don't wanna scare anyone with this 'natural' look, sleep deprivation does not look good on me. 2 work days then off for 4!!!
I guess IDGAF I am rocking the natural look today. Yesterday I put makeup on and due to sleep deprivation I kept rubbing my eyes and then had black eyes :/. So jealous of your 4 days off!
I am so thankful it is Wednesday....that much closer to the weekend. My nose and face are so red from blowing this faucet like nose I have. LO sounds like she's wheezing now, so a trip to the pedi is in order. I am beginning to think I need my own parking spot there. Two visits last week with each boy, one visit with LO this week already and another today. They should at least give us frequent flyer miles or something!

I am struggling this morning, but not for any legitimate reason. My only goals for the day are to shower and go to the library. I am so sad that I drank all of the coffee and it's all gone.
Guise. Thanks for all your well wishes for DS. He seems ok now so hopefully whatever it is isn't too serious. He's said he didn't feel well at school and mentioned his stomach and his legs hurting. So, I don't know what that means. Could have been bad gas pain, could have been hunger (?), maybe its growing pains...
kaylajade hope your sofa is delivered soon. famousea potty training is such a mindfuck. Sorry!
