I put N to sleep this morning before we left for church and put his Sleepyhat on so he'd hopefully sleep through the service. He did, but some woman stopped me and told me it was mean of me to put his hat over his eyes. Blah. It would be meaner to subject the entire sanctuary to his screeching throughout the service.
Now H and I are laying in bed watching House on Netflix and sharing some Easter candy while N takes his afternoon nap. I love my husband

I am Jewish and H is catholic so I half assed an Easter basket for him and M. The real reason I did to it for H is because I saw packs of fun dip and needed and excuse to buy it so now I and sitting here eating Wonderful Watermelon fun dip. The sugar stick is the best !!!
My parents were here for the weekend and I have to say it was one of the best visits. My mom never really held M but she did actually interact with him. My dad was great with him. So cute watching him walk down the street holding his Poppy's hand.

We're about to head to a friend's house for Easter dinner. I made some cupcakes to take. They certainly aren't professional, but I'm happy with how they turned out.
It's been an almost picture perfect Easter. Baskets and egg hunt in the yard this morning, mass was so beautiful and the kids were pretty good. We had my dad and his girlfriend over for brunch and it all was wonderful except..
I absolutely carved the shit out of two fingers while getting it together. I kinda think I need stitches, how do you know? I managed to get it under control with band aids and I'm thinking of picking up some of that super glue for cuts stuff. Anyone have any idea?

OMG - you poor thing.
How deep are we talking? How long did it take to get the bleeding under control?
DD didn't sleep for shit last night. Teeth, maybe? Her cuspids have looked like they should be poking through at any moment for a month so who knows?
Anyway, we did an egg hunt with my niece at my sister's house then my whole family went to brunch at my BIL and sister's golf club. Brunch was fabulous and I had 2 mimosas Came home, DD nursed (MUST be teething) and finally decided to fall asleep at the time she normally wakes up from her nap.
I guess it's just as well that, as usual, DH's mom didn't call to let us know about Easter plans until yesterday. They decided to schedule lunch for 3 when a) MIL knows full well that DD naps 2-4:30 and b) we are the ONLY people in DH's whole family that have multiple local celebrations to try to work in. Whatever bc I don't really want to go (they set out peanuts at Christmas despite hosting a 17-month old with a peanut allergy despite never having set bowls of peanuts all around the room before...hello, even if she wasn't allergic they are a major choking hazard!) but I think it hurts DH's feelings a bit that they won't work with us at all on celebrations and don't seem terribly interested in including us.

It's pretty deep and bled a ton. I immediately applied pressure and kept my hand above my head. I was able to get a few band aids tightly around it and it's been a few hours but it hurts!
I was attempting to open a gallon of milk and used a huge, sharp slicing knife that I was using to cut up veggies to get the plastic ring off the top. Stupid, stupid, stupid. It's the front of my pointer and middle fingers.

I would go to urgent care and get stitches.
I’m so sorry that happened.
I just took off the band aids and it hasn't closed. Off to urgent care we go
This is TMI, but I lost my mucus plug earlier. I know that doesn’t mean much, but at 4 days overdue, I really hope it means I’ll see some action within the next few days. I may be the one overdue pregnant woman on the planet who’s not really uncomfortable and not dying to be done with pregnancy; however, I’d love to avoid being induced, and they have me scheduled to go in and get that party started Thursday night.
Please send labor vibes! I’m having some cramps now but not getting my hopes up, as I’ve been having these and contractions for weeks now.

Our Dr says that if it stops bleeding within 15 minutes then you do not need stitches.
7 stitches and a tetanus shot. Lots of bleeding, apparently I hit an artery on my pointer finger. Oh well! Maybe I can get my DH to stay home for a bit tomorrow lol.
It's a good day in the spitfire household. I'm enjoying my coffee and making lunches while everyone else sleeps. Last night we went to a friend's house for a Coxsackie egg hunt (her son goes to our DC and has it too) and she and her husband made us an awesome dinner.
Then we went home, put DD to bed, and I tried the 9pm sex trick y'all are always talking about. Happy Easter, DH!
We got the new china cabinet in this week. Happy Easter to me!
I have an assignment due tonight at 11:59pm for an online class I'm taking.
Sure, I know I've been procrastinating, but seriously, it's a holiday week-end! Awful deadline.
We actually had a quiz due tonight as well, but I did that on Thursday. I'm pissed that I got 8/10. I hate multiple choice, both of my wrong answers, I switched from the right answer to the wrong answer while revising. GRRR

We had the best day. It was so pleasant and enjoyable.
Everyone slept in until 8:15. We lounged around for a bit. The kids found their baskets. We went to the farmers' market for breakfast and got to visit with my good friend and her family. Then we biked to the zoo. After the zoo we went out for Mexican food and then biked home. Both kids went to sleep easily, although I think my husband fell asleep while he was reading to my daughter. I should probably go get him.
