Rainy here today. It's been raining since yesterday so all of our outside projects have been put on hold. DH started installing the sprinklers and tearing out the deck so now we just have a muddy mess in our back yard.
Back at work, nose to the grindstone. We're currently scheduling family to come visit during the summer. I'm trying to be a better hostess, but both DH and I enjoy private time, so it can be a little exhausting hosting. Any tips for how to make visits go well? Would putting guests in LO's room with LO in it be rude? We have a small 2-bed so not much space to host
Also I'm currently (and irrationally) obsessing over getting Ch a purse. She's too young for it but, cmon!
nemomof2 I love rain! I'm jealous. It's going to be 98 degrees here today BLECH. Enjoy your cuddly day!
bkmama0 if it makes you feel better, LO has three purses already. I couldn't help myself. As for hosting, I'm with you. It's really hard. I would probably put LO in with you though. It would be hard on your guests to have to be quiet and not wake her while they are getting ready for bed, etc. Just my two cents.
AFM, hanging out with LO today. We are currently splashing around in the water table. I'm hoping to wear her out so she takes a good nap and I can get some work done. I'm also half heartedly doing a job search- not sure this place is going to work out and I want to see what my options are. Hope everyone has a good day!

ourcrazynavylife FX for you! I'm only 8 DPO and I'm already getting the crazies. kcrus sounds like a fun time! Hope she gets worn out and takes a good nap for you. bkmama0 ha I think the purse is so cute! nemomof2 it's been raining here too. Hope it dries up soon so you guys can finish up though.
I'm a bit sore from the race on Saturday. I went to yoga this morning which felt really nice. Now LO is down for his nap and I'm being unproductive lol. DH and I might go on a run tonight, but if it's still stormy then we will hit up the gym.
I made this amazing cake for DH's birthday and I'm trying so hard not to eat it during the day. It's just sooooooo goooooood. I guess I can wait til tonight though
Lo was up briiiiight and early at 5 this morning. We had his 15 month appt today and the pedi said he's doing great. His iron is just under where she'd like it to be, but I'm not too surprised by that. He's still a short little guy- barely 5th percentile! Fx he's not too sore from his shots.
nemomof2 sounds like a good lazy day inside! bkmama0 I would put lo in your room. I know my lo would be a disaster with other people in his room. Lol kcrus ooh, I should put lo's water table together. Thanks for reminding me! Sorry the new job isn't going well. ourcrazynavylife tide pools? I'm jealous! Keeping fx for you. BabyStandish what kind of cake?

BabyStandish the crazy train has full on left the station. It's sooo bad. I'm trying so hard not to think about it because I know I'm going to be super disappointed. But all these crazy "symptoms", I just can't help myself.

ashlantic yea they're supposed to be really cool and it's actually a negative low tide so we should get to see some cool stuff. They were a bit of a bust last time we went cuz the tide & surf were too high. So fx it's better today.

ashlantic I made a chocolate cake with nutella frosting and chocolate ganache topping. It's one of the best things I've ever baked. It's incredibbbbbbbly rich and delicious.

I'm on the opposite end- I'm not ready for #2 just yet, but am not on BC (just PO method) and now I'm imagining symptoms and trying not to think about it too hard, but a bit worried I am KU. Of course I would be happy for another and dream about it a lot, but also it would be a big stretch, financially. Phew.

Sending good vibes you you both.
bkmama0 I'm on the exact same page as you, down to the no BC and using the super effective PO method. AF was just late enough last week that I was starting to worry, but it showed up right before the weekend. I was starting to imagine all kinds of symptoms as well. I think we eventually want #2, but not right now.
BabyStandish and ourcrazynavylife and any other ladies in our group who are ttc, I'm definitely rooting for you all!

He's seriously just the cutest ever tho. Kills me.

I kept coming in to post and got busy with work or personal stuff. Here are my randoms: - I was super nauseous in the a.m. no fun. - had to run to bank during lunch, got lost twice damn suburbs - dh is at his visa appts this week. And got scammed $200. After talking to someone and checking in with me, he went back and managed to get money back. - Went to cvs to buy gummy prenatals and by the time we got home I had to drag leo inside. He will sit on the sidewalk crying that he wants to stay outside, so stubborn! - my house is so hot! It got up to 83° today. And I can't leave windows open overnight, considered A/C but the temp drops back to 60's tomorrow.
