Tonight starts the big purge. I have been in denial Long enough about this move, but we har to get serious. I think we can easily get rid of half out stuff, but I have to keep my sentimental self on the shelf to do it. Ugh.
Omg just thinking about flying with both kids gives me warm fuzzies.
Yesterday I took them both to the grocery store and when we got home I was chuckling about what a grand time we had. I had to have celebratory drinks with friends.
FTFY.
Seriously, no one is allowed to post anything but puppies and rainbows about life with two kids. IT'S GOING TO BE EASY!

[br It's really much easier than I thought it would be! It's just pockets of stressful situations but overall it's not terrible
I mean I'm totally still considering #3 so it can't be that bad
Also as time passes the idea of things with both kids becomes much less stressful
On Saturday I took them both to a birthday party at a playground alone and I was there three hours, it was quite pleasant except for the last ten minutes when I had to chase her around to extract her.
I feel like in a few more months I will be ok with the idea of flying alone with them. For a short flight i would do it now probably. But the 6+ Hour to Ireland with the bags and all that ... Not ready for that yet!

I was to sick to purge before our move last month. I am paying for it now as I unload boxes.

Natalie's sheets are pink, but she had a diaper leak this morning and the only other clean fitted twin sheet I had was blue. She threw a huge fit about having a blue sheet so I covered it the best I could with her pink top sheet and she was happy again.
I asked her what her favorite color was, and she smiled and said "blue!" I swear I have an evil genius in the making.

Sometimes MM has good advice, sometimes they really fit their reputation of just being a wealthy group of out of touch people.
There is a thread about how do you pay for a vacation. Cue the tons of, I just charge it then pay it off right away. Then this one, I just pay for it and save a little less that month.
Ok, great, I am thinking the orginal poster doesn't have so much income that she can take vacations every month and still save some money. Helpful.
I'm a meetup failure. I chickened out of the one on Friday and then today's I went to the park they said they are typically there from 9ish-11. So I get there about 9. A few people come with toddlers but don't really say anything. I remember the organizer had a 2 year old a new baby also so when a mom came with two kids I asked if she was with the meetup and she was like no. So I hung out at the park until 1030 and more people came but I couldn't recognize any from their pictures or what. So I didn't really meet anyone
I really, really liked the OT therapist at the outpatient clinic for Em, so I'm feeling better about the whole therapy situation right now. She gave me a lot of helpful suggestions, which was nice. I tried taking Emerson to lunch after therapy and I will not be making that mistake again. Holy meltdown!

I read the WM thread about how much money you make and I got depressed.

Keep in mind, it is a very skewed statistic, not reflctive of real life at all!
Owen and I went and met a new daycare lady today. She's much closer and has been closed for one day in the 10 years she's been providing care. She's also $10/d less for part time. I'm still having doubts about pulling the trigger.

I make a bajillion dollars a year but I'm not rich, I'm just middle class.
I mean it's not like I have my own JET. I just rent one from time to time when I need it. And sometimes I have to share it with others which is embarrassing. If only I were upper class ...
