Well, our house is officially for sale. There's a board in the garden and everything. Now we have to keep it tidy and hope that people start viewing it soon. And hoping that once we do sell we'll quickly find the perfect place!

Why does the worst night of sleep always happen on Sunday night? Somehow this little boy knows I have to go back to work....
Ah congrats purple! That's a huge step. Good luck keeping everything up, we ended up asking for 24hr notice before any showings so I could clean really well.
carrots, you're a stronger person than me, but I definitely know how it feels to be a at a family gathering with someone it's not worth arguing with. My grandmother is the worst for that.
My cake didn't fall over and tasted pretty good, DH got me a ton of Easter chocolate and the blackout curtains on LOs windows worked!
Today is doggy daycare so that means I need to vacuum and wash floors.

budders, I feel like you've had your share, and everyone else's share, of sickness in your household. It is time for that stick cloud to darken someone else's doorway!
We're on our way to the airport to fly home. Of course BH had a massive, up the back poop right as we were about to leave the hotel. I guess I should be thankful it happened there and not on the plane?
Good morning ladies! Hosting holidays is exhausting! (And we only had a small amount of people here compared to Christmas and thanksgiving!) C took 2 crap naps yesterday and I was really nervous how my night was going to be but he slept until 5:30 and went back down until 7:30. All that showing off wore him out! budders, I hope everyone gets healthy soon! You guys have the worst luck. purple, congrats on your house officially being on the market! I would ask the realtor for a 24 hour notice before showing. When we had our house listed (before C was here) we had it set up as a go and show during the day- so basically they could just show whenever and didn't need to notify us. Which meant my house had to be show ready every morning when I walked out the door. As soon as C was born we changed it to I needed to know at least the night before. (Not so I could do a big clean, my bigger issue was making sure I had somewhere to hang out with a newborn for an hour. ) I hope it sells fast, and you can find your dream house quickly. iowamama615, hope you all stay healthy!
Ahhh budders we just went through that ourselves a couple weeks ago-awful! Feel better soon!
We stayed at my ILs last night so we'll leave here after lunch. Not much for plans today, just wanted to check in! H has to get together with his admin team to work this afternoon/evening, otherwise will have the rest of the week off!
DD1 is away with my mom and I really feel lost! Haha. I mean, I'm enjoying relaxing and just having one kid, but my whole chaotic SAHM routine is thrown off and I don't know how to spend my days. I guess we'll go for a walk? What do people do with a 9 month old all day? Haha. I can't remember what we did when DD1 was this age, but she was my only one back then so I probably felt super busy.
budders, you cannot catch a break! We had it too, on Christmas. It was the worst Christmas I can remember in a long time Hope it passes quickly!
Ok guys, LO is with my in-laws at my house and so far so good! Fingers crossed, but oh my, the guilt of having them help is rough. They are always watching my two SIL's kids during the week, but to make matters even worse, my (now ex) BIL just went to jail for a year and so they are working super double duty helping with those 4 kids who no longer have a dad around. They were venting to me about it this morning, how they don't even get weekends to themselves now. Even though I only need help from them twice a week, I feel terrible asking them to add more to their plate
Oh, I forgot to be an AW as DD got her first haircut yesterday! The crazy has been tamed! I had an appt booked with my hairdresser a couple weeks ago but sickness took over us as well as her, but MIL loves doing it and had time this weekend while we are here.
Poof
Also congrats and GL with the selling of your house purple!

Don't be so hard on yourself. Most grandparents enjoy watching their grandchildren and don't see it as a burden. Do they watch your SIL'S kids on weekends too? Maybe offer to take them one weekend here and there so grandparents can have some time off?
Ugh, it's really a big mess. Yes, the SIL with 4 kids works nights and weekends. My other SIL (who lives with my ILs) is very ill so she relies heavily on them as well to watch her son during the week. So ILs are just stretched super thin and I do think it's somewhat of a burden on them. They take it like champs, though. There is no way I could watch SIL's 4 kids on the weekends for various reasons. I have offered to watch sick SIL's son, but they don't really need the help when I can give it (weekends). Like I said, it's a mess.
Good luck selling the house purple. So many hugs budders I hope this passes quickly so that you aren't plagued with sickness anymore. You very much deserve a sick free house for the next year! tiffbot, such a cute haircut, I love it!
E is majorly teething today and I feel so bad for him. I feel bad for me too since I saw every hour last night except for 2am. Damn teeth! Tell me there is an end at some point? Today needs to be over

budders, I hope the worst is behind you, feel better. tiffbot she looks so cute!! Love the haircut. O will be bald forever I'm sure! purple good luck! I hope the house sells quickly and you find something perfect! There is entirely too much chocolate in this house. Between the bunny and relatives, there is probably 20 lbs!! Kids are on spring break so we are taking them old school roller skating today. Should be fun! Also, I hate this new tapatalk update. I can't post pics at all now and the update was supposed to make photo sharing easier.
Romy was 12 years old. She was a cranky old dog that was going to live forever. She normally sleeps in the garage but has dog doors in and out of the house and out to the back yard. My mom went to feed her this morning, she wasn't in the house or the garage and she found her laying in the backyard in her usual spot and she was just not moving or breathing. My mom said she was totally fine yesterday. I'm feeling pretty shocked.
My kid slept from 8-4:30 last night, which meant I was obsessively checking her since she never sleeps like that anymore and it most certainly means she'll be up a ton tonight.
budders sounds like my weekend. It was just confirmed though that J has the flu. Which means I had/have the flu, which I passed to DH & J. Feeling like Mommy of the year over here!
@jemomma a blowout in footie pjs doesn't sound any better.
budders, I'm so sorry you guys are dealing with sickness again. I hope it passes quickly. tiffbot, that haircut makes such a difference! belle0720, sorry to hear about your family dog. Pets become such important members in their families and it's hard to lose them. We didn't get back home until late after visiting the ILs for the weekend. E had a blast being surrounded by plenty of people to play with. Today he is a little crabby, probably because now he only has me to play with. Nap time can't come soon enough over here.
