Yesterday was a lot to handle, but I'm not even going to dredge it all up to vent because DS and I are snuggling reading books with this view. It was all worth it.
Ha and I just changed the title of the other thread
I am sorry yesterday was a mess. Enjoy your snuggles and the beach!
I am sitting on the couch with the tv on for DD. I have declared Saturday mommy break days, but unfortunately I solo parent until mid morning because H goes and runs so that means DD gets the tv for a bit. I may have also told H he better bring me back a chai tea on his way home. I didn't ask I told.
DD was helping me unload the dryer this morning. She grabbed a sock and I told her "Take it to Mommy and Daddy's room." She promptly took it straight to the hamper in our room and dropped it in. I guess she was just saving us the pesky step of actually wearing the clothes. Ha ha! Cute moment.
dreemkin hope dress shopping is low stress. tortor4 enjoy the LLR party! The leggings really are super soft. Maybe you can find a matching outfit for you & LO! I've seen people put the kids small/medium leggings on one year olds.
badw0lf Ahhhh it's snowing here too (I'm near Pittsburgh). We're supposed to get 2 to 4 inches. WTAF?!
lilyelayne sorry yesterday was tough. But I bet that view makes it at least mostly all better! So jealous. Have fun and enjoy your snuggles! I didn't even think of matching outfits, thanks for the tip!
Omg my H kills me he won't put DD down for a nap without me telling him to. As in 'honey please go put DD in bed she needs a nap' or if I am not here when he will wait until she is absolutely melting down before he will put her down.
I have told him she goes down for a nap between these times and pointed out her cues. 'no she is just upset because...' umm honey she is TIRED which is making her react that way. So I am sitting in my room listening to DD be fussy for 30+ minutes because I refuse to tell him what to do today.
tortor4 it kind of reminds me of your vent with H.
Hey, remember when I was too busy in the fall and I didn't get a flu shot?
And remember how I got the flu in January and then AGAIN this week. Yay for getting two different strains, both of which the flu shot would have vaccinated me against. Next year, I'm going to be first in line for the shot.
V also was sick, not with the flu (cuz he get his vaccines) but with a stomach virus and a fever. Poor baby has been miserable, but woke up today in a better mood. MIL just took him so I can get some rest, so I think I'm going to attempt a nap.
Sorry for all those who are also sick and sick babies. I hope we all can get healthy and stay that way soon!
So I took both kids to the grocery store on a Saturday, something I try to avoid like the plague. Anyway, I had a good parking spot. As I get to my car with my two kids and cart full of groceries, somebody stops to wait for that spot. They literally waited and blocked traffic in that lane while I unloaded groceries, returned my cart, and loaded both kids in to the car. As you all know, that is not a quick process. Seriously, there were other spots. Walk three steps!
Took DS to the park. He fell asleep on the walk home, but not until we were almost home. I had a late brunch at the place I don't like by our apartment because he was still awake when we passed the place I like (brioche french toast!) and I didn't want to deal with an overly tired kid while I ate.
Brave to do on a sat my friend, maryxc1. And I hate parking vultures too!
Dress shopping went well. I found one at Macy's that I really like and it was about what I expected to pay. My mom was a huge help as she ran to the racks while I tried on in the dressing room. I would have been there for hours on my own. She did keep saying my size really loudly though and I'm not too happy about what size I ended up getting but it is what it is for now. That's not going to change in a week. So we went out to lunch lol and I got a mango margarita too, dammit!
We took a few pics to remember the occasion. Tonight we went over to the neighbours and then DH brought LO home for bath and her first bedtime cup of milk. I figured it would be less upsetting for her if I wasn't even around. DH said it went well and she drank quite a bit so that is good! But still a little sad ;(

Wow, just wow! This would annoy me bc I would feel like I need to move faster. And if there are no screaming kids then really there is no need to rush.

I'm glad it wasn't traumatic for her. Hopefully not too traumatic for you.
DS had a blast today. Played on the beach, got his feet wet in the ocean, napped for three (!!) hours, went on a long beach walk on my back, and had shrimp for dinner!
Bit of a rough night, DS got up to nurse 3x between 1230 & 5, but we both slept in. He's actually still sleeping. Wish he'd slept at night instead of during beach time but I'll take what I can get.
F got a big old fat lip this morning. He tripped over his own feet "running" to get a ball. The sound was awful. I think he caught himself with his mouth. Blood and everything. Doesn't help that he has at least three teeth coming in.
Oh no! And mouths bleed likes crazy. That happened to DD at a play place at the mall.
