DH just put DD down and now I am going to try to get 3 hours of work done. I can't work at night - I am such a freaking morning person. I wish I could work from 7am to 2pm.
Work is amazingly stressful and I have still managed to get to the gym 3 times this week. I am proud of myself but feel like a shitty employee. Work life balance is a bitch.

Exercise is a strong driver of mood! I'm sure part of why I have felt so shitty is that I've gone from training for a triathlon to basically not working out at all. Put on your own oxygen mask before assisting your CWs!

I'm trying so hard to break L's suck to sleep association in the hopes that he will stop waking up every 90 minutes or so all night long. After 4 attempts and about an hour, I gave up and nursed him to sleep. I fail at life!

I am so so so scared to do this. Gah.
It's not going well. He can fall asleep without it about half the time but only when going down for the night, not at naps and MOTN. It did not work tonight.
tulips my dd2 recently pushed back bed to 8. She sleeps until almost 7 now, so I'm not complaining.
Dh and I are watching House of Cards. I'm more than ready to finish season two. I really hate it, I just want to know what happens. Bring the fall comedy line up!

Last night at about 3am I laid down with DD on the carpet in her bedroom and let her roll around while I half-slept. She fell asleep on her own. I do not want to do this every night.
We don't need to discuss the last time I vacuumed that carpet.
I've convinced DH to build E a learning tower. Just had to show him the prices on amazon and suddenly he's dusting off his kreg jig. Hopefully we knock a good chunk out this weekend.
Dd had her first day of preschool, first dance class and fell asleep within 90 seconds. Now if she sleeps past 530 am this will officially be the best.day.ever.
IDK. The daycare got challenged by another local business so the teachers are doing it during water day tomorrow and I guess they wanted to include students if they wanted to. Which, I mean, for 4-5 year olds who know WTF ice is and think it will be fun or funny, fine. But my kid isn't even two yet and I guarantee he'll just be pissed and cold and won't have a clue, NO.

shoulder surgery went well - sucks though. I have percocet for pain...not sure i feel comfortable bfing on it. nerve block hasn't worn off yet, so i'm not sure about the pain
boy, if you think pumping stinks, try pumping after surgery
Meh one of my neighbors owns a daycare and they did an "ice bucket challenge", the little kids just poured a dixie cup of water on themselves (head, feet, hand, whatever). It did not appear to have ice in it. It was actually pretty cute.
I made lactation cookies tonight in an attempt to boost my supply. They're actually really good, and its a great excuse to eat cookies even if it does nothing to my milk supply.
I think I should to take C to the pedi tomorrow but I feel kind dumb. He's had thick green snot for a week, like rivers of it, but didn't seem bothered by it. Then tonight his teachers said he was fussy all day and he had a slight temp when we got home.
we went out for dinner and ice cream tonight and I struck up a conversation with a family at the ice cream shop. Their daughter is a month older than mine and they have 3 month old twins 3 under 2, yowza. The craziest part is that she herself is a twin, and her twin sister just had twins too! I invited her to join my mom's group, she probably thinks I'm crazy.

I think my DS would stay up until 9 regularly if we let him. He doesn't get super crazy at night so I've never has clear signs from him that he's tired. He's usually crabbiest right after he gets up.
Gahhhh! Spoiler alert! DH had a class tonight so we started the game late. We're only halfway done with the 3rd quarter. I have been avoiding Facebook, but I thought this would be safe. Ah well, at least it's good news! Gig 'em!

I'm sorry, simpsongal. My friend had rotator cuff surgery this summer also and she has had a really rough time.
*I* would feel okay nursing on percocet, I think...they give it to you after childbirth if you have a c-section, right? Call your LC for reassurance.
Today DS1 got hit by a kid at school who has hit/shoved him before. He is basically in cahoots with this other kid, a new kid (youngest in the class). Another time, Z was washing his hands and the young kid pushed him out of the way, and the other kid came and started doing the same, for no apparent reason.
I asked him if these kids hit others and he said yes, especially A (the youngest one) "because he is young and just doesn't know." I don't *think* he is being targeted if he claims they shove other kids, but my heart still hurts. He has never been the most social kid, and I seriously just worry so much about him sometimes. Bullying is my biggest fear ever. Fuck, I am crying right now just thinking about these two kids ganging up on him in the bathroom even though it was like 2 months ago.
I'm sorry. I was almost crying when a friend was telling me about her son being left out in Kindergarten. It just hurts your heart! It sounds like you have a kind son. ((hugs))
