0% Irish but never used that as an excuse not to celebrate. I'm only working 1/2 a day today then going to an Irish pub this afternoon. I hope everyone has a great day!
Happy St. Paddy's Day! I'm exactly 0% Irish, so the only celebrating I really have planned is reminiscing about college when it was really easy to skip class because there was an excuse to go day drinking all day. Hope everyone that is celebrating has fun

Barely Irish, but it's DH's birthday today so that's what we kind of associate St. Patrick's Day with around here. We still dress in green, but we are really having a birthday party!
My daughter L turns 4 today. Where has the time gone?! I can't handle birthdays!! Poof ETA I love that I only used her initial yet didn't realize you can clearly see her name in the photo in multiple places lol. Oh well. Poofing later.
I walked over to Aldi today to get groceries for dinner tonight. I always bring E in his stroller and use that as my shopping cart. The cashier today actually told me to just back the stroller up and she loaded it for me, instead of loading the cart and letting me transfer everything back to the stroller. It was so nice of her! She also said "oh, I bet you are having tacos tonight!" I had to stop myself from saying "yes, we're finally going to try THE tacos!" Because at the last second I realized she would have no idea what I was talking about. I can't wait to find out what all the hype has been about!
Also I died laughing at his hdbd pic of him waving yesterday.
When we went to our 9 month check up last week he made that first face every single time the ped shined his little eye light at him. Our doc was laughing so hard he was almost in tears.

My mom's side of the family has some Irish. The closest we get to celebrating is wearing green, and I will probably get myself a shamrock shake on my way to work.
Guise. I just asked my boss if I can go part-time. I'm shaking because I was so nervous to have the conversation. He was super supportive and understanding and said he has no problem looking into it. So now I anxiously wait while it works its way through the big guys. Please send good vibes or prayers or whatever you've got to spare. I can't even let myself imagine what it might be like to have more time with my boy because it would be so great.
Good luck! That's awesome:) can I ask what made you put in the request now? Just me being nosy, tell me to MYOB if you don't want to answer;)

carrots, Good luck! Not coming back to work 100% full time was the best decision I've ever made, and I've since made it very clear to my employer I have no intention of going back to a 5-day a week schedule, I honestly think part time is the closest you can get to the best of both worlds between SAH and being a working mom. Fingers crossed you get more time with your baby boy soon!
