Yay KKLL!! Hope everything goes smoothly!!
Rough morning over here. When your baby has been crying for an hour and there is nothing you can do to stop her you know what is not fucking helpful? Your neighbor pounding on the walls. Yes, we know she is crying. You may not believe it, but we are trying to make her stop. Ugh I can not wait to be out of this apartment!
Sorry pghtruelove, I know it's frustrating when you have no idea why they are crying or how to help. Crappy neighbors don't help any either.
I got woken up a 4 am to the sound of the pup vomiting in the bed, under the covers, at my feet. Cue me having to strip the bed while not waking the bed-sharing baby and then try to climb back in and get 30 more minutes of sleep before my alarm went off.
I only managed four hours' sleep last night and half of it was on the recliner with the baby. It's been a long morning. Less than half an hour till lunchtime and we're going to my parents' house this afternoon. We're aiming for my mum to take care of L two afternoons a week so that I can do some work on my business. This is the beginning of working towards it! Mum is very nervous so she wants to start slowly. I'm hoping I'll be able to leave her there for half an hour this afternoon!

purple right! Now that we finally have her back to sleep they are upstairs making all kinds of noise to piss us off. Slamming doors, loud tv, vacuuming.

That's awful. As if it isn't stressful enough for you that LO is crying. You don't need people making it worse. I understand how you feel, we too hate our apartment.
It's 630 am, I've been up for an hour already. Only got 4 hours of sleep last night because my mind wouldn't stop. Sitting here waiting for the baby to wake up and get this house-buying ball rolling!
That's my current dining room with almost all boxes from the whole house. Just ready to be loaded onto the truck.
Then dropping baby off at mom-moms and then it's closing time!!! Finally!!
This week has gone by so fast and I feel like I got nothing done. I feel like I'm constantly trying to better myself or put some structure back into my life but I'm getting nowhere. SO is home at two and then I'm hoping we can go for lunch, we have a house viewing tomorrow so I want to go over things. Wedding planner also contacted me and said she is happy to arrange the wedding for the following year, 2018 for pretty much the same price. Which is great because it's something less to worry about for now. My boss also told me I get 50% off of my wedding dress if I buy from the company. I work as a bridal advisor. Busy busy Thursday..
I also have constant exhaustion, like no matter how much sleep I try and get I'm just so tired & so nauseous. I threw up my dinner at SO parents house the other night, so not attractive. They don't know I'm pregnant but I have a feeling they are suspicious.
Ds1 is fascinated by the human body all of a sudden thanks to a Bearenstain book. He learned that what goes in must come out. Anyway...
Yesterday we were at a sushi restaurant for dinner and after we were done eating he exclaims "so when we get home we will poop this sushi out, right?" Hopefully no one heard lol
I'm sure he'd love the "everyone poops" book then from 1970 lol.

I'm trying to plan my friends bridal shower with her ever difficult sister, tie loose ends for her bachelorette at LI vineyard, help her find vendors for her wedding which has been moved a week up and won't be destination anymore, and figure out some things for baby's 1st birthday party since we decided to do a Russian Restaurant. 12 isn't too early is it?

It's my bday! Trying not to fight with DH. I planned out trip to the DR and my own party last weekend. So I wasn't expecting much from him. But I just wanted him to do something thoughtful. Which I told him. Even gave him the suggestion of taking the baby this morning so I could sleep a little. So when I asked him this morning to wake up and take the baby he groaned and said "but I thought you said it would be for less than an hour so it's not worth it". Cue me leaving in a silent rage. Then he comes out 15 minutes later and sits looking depressed on his phone. Awesome. Sorry I just really needed to bitch!!
carolyngrace HAPPY BIRTHDAY! You H is totally sucking in the celebration of your bday. I hope DB is good for you today!!
It's one of those things where you should directly ask for what you want instead of playing games, but it also doesn't feel special if you have to ask for it. How hard is it to think about what I would really like and do it for me? Ahhhh.
And thank you. I'm eating kit kats for breakfast so it's starting out fairly well.
Happy birthday, carolyngrace!! Hope your H gets it together and does something special for you later today. Happy moving day, Kristykristyleelee! Hope everything goes smooth today for you. holliberry28, I don't think 12 is too early for a kid's birthday party. We're planning an early afternoon party just to coincide with the end of nap time for us @wwprestige, you definitely still need to burn the house down, sorry. carrots, I'm sorry Thursday is not off to a good start. Hope things get settled between you and H and pink eye goes away soon! pghtruelove, I'm sorry for the rough morning. Those neighbors sound terrible. We have neighbors we don't love, and assuming we move later this year, H said he's signing them up for every free religious/political/whatever magazine he can. purple, that's wonderful your mum will start watching L. Hopefully that gives you a much needed break!
I'm surely missing people, I haven't made it through my coffee yet, but hope everyone's Thursday is good to them! We had two wake-ups again last night (boo), and random crabbing in between. His day care teacher made the comment yesterday though that he's got to have some teeth coming in, which we've been suspecting, so I'm really hoping that's the culprit. DS is a drooly, snotty mess right now, but happy as a clam while he's awake still, so I guess we can't complain too much. I'd just love it if the sleep Gods could somehow get us back to that nice one wake-up per night plan we were on...
carolyngrace, I am usually the last person to advocate violence of any kind, but your H badly needs a slap. Happy birthday!
Having said that, I had to swallow all my feelings the first couple of years we were together, and spell out that I do want a bit of fuss from him on my birthday. He doesn't really care about his, so he did need to be told. He took it on board and now doesn't need to be reminded. Might it be worth trying a similar tactic with yours?

purple yeah that's the thing. We've been together 8 years. I ALWAYS like a fuss on my birthday. And since I'm 30 this year I started talking about it months ago. Blurg!! But thanks for supporting me slapping him! Lol

holliberry28 I think 12 is a little early, but if your babe will be up and happy that's all that really matters! 12-2 is either nap or total mess time at my house.

Okay. In that case he has no excuses and definitely needs a slap.
Everyone getting pregnant made me paranoid so I peed on a stick. Not pregnant. O's trend of waking between 4&5 this week has me questioning if I ever want to be pregnant again. Spending the day with my mom and sister helping mom pack and just hanging out. The more we help her pack the happier I am about her moving. We keep finding mouse poop and a couple nests. Wasps, stink bugs, and Japanese beetles keep getting into the house. I want to know that O is somewhere clean and safe when he's with her during the week.
Happy birthday, carolyngrace! Fwiw, I'd go get a cupcake or something with you today! I need to head to Lawrenceville and order our anniversary cake anyways. Hoping Bernie traffic is better...
Last night we had a couple of wake ups and I'm exhausted. But it's supposed to be almost 70 today so we'll definitely get outside and then I have the trainer later this afternoon. My mom is going to come and watch DD. This is probably like the 8th time she watches her alone (she comes to visit much more often) and DD will cry for most of the time. I'm hoping this ends soon because I feel badly for both of them and then end up feel selfish for going to the gym.

Yay for closing day Kristykristyleelee!! carrots poor LO. Hope you made some headway with your H and going part time. @wwprestige burn it down!!!! I would die. Happy Birthday carolyngrace!! It's supposed to snow again here over the next few days. Enough already! It's spring break and April! I guess at least there are no snakes.

Apparently I'm the only one who has been "that neighbor"...or the only one admitting it. The people on one side of my apartment would just kind of scream at their kid to shut up (no idea how old he or she was) and clearly weren't doing anything about it since the moms screaming was coming from her bedroom, directly on the other side of the wall from mine. The neighbors on the other side would let their kids jump around all hours of the day and night and it usually sounded like they were jumping off the backs of couches or tables or something. It was causing things to fall off my walls. So yeah, I pounced on both of their walls. All the time.
