I can't decide if I should go grocery shopping now or tomorrow. Going up and down every aisle at Target sounds amazing but it's been a long week at work and my bra is already off. Hmmm..
When DD sees Mickey Mouse on TV or the store she calls him "dada". Sometimes she just says mouse to refer to him but most of the time it's a very loud and clear "DADA!!!".
All three kids are sleeping, DH left for his sleep study, and I'm drinking a makers and sprite and enjoying Halloween candy. . I had plans to put away laundry but that's not happening.
I'm so tired I can't think straight. I called another attorney today to follow up on an Email I sent yesterday. She immediately started screaming at me. I have never spoken to this woman before and was trying to touch base since I took over the case for someone that retired. I did not need that today.
I am headed to the Ritz tomorrow for H's medical conference. He is already there. I am dropping M off with Nana and Grandpa in the morning so that we can have a baby-free night. H booked me an afternoon of spa services. Woo!
I asked C if he wanted his puppy nightlight on tonight and he said "no. I tired."
What does bronchitis feel like? I am beginning to feel like this month long wheezy cough C and I have is possibly more than just a cough.
I need a good veggie side to add to our Thanksgiving dinner because right now it's very beige and carby. Anyone have a good carrot or broccoli recipe? The ILs aren't adventurous with veggies.
I haven't had a period in over a month (I think). I haven't been tracking it, and it hasn't been super regular since I got it after A, but I'm thinking I need to test tomorrow. I don't think I could be pregnant since we have used condoms the whole time, but I don't know where my period is. I am weaning A, so that could have something to do with it.
I'm stressed about our upcoming trip. I just bought a bunch of feel good clothes and still don't feel like I have enough. I need to get about 15 pairs of pants/leggings hemmed and can't find a place to do it for under $20 each. I didn't even pay that much for any of them! I really should pack.

For me (yearly) bronchitis is a crazy amount of coughing, coughing fits where I can't stop coughing to the point of gagging.. A crazy tickle, not in my throat, but down lower. Like non-stop coughing. Ugh. It makes me feel terrible for my office-mate.

Just put DS down. It's an hour earlier than usual, but we have a bday party tomorrow during nap time, so it will hopefully work in my favor if he wakes up early then takes a morning nap.
Trying to decide what to watch. All my old standbys are boring me.
Ugh I can't decide if we need to push E's bedtime or just let her take 30ish mins to fall asleep. She doesn't cry, so I'm thinking we'll stick with the same time.

DS is lately taking 30, sometimes up to 60 (!) minutes to fall asleep. He seems perfectly happy to chat to himself and wind down in his crib, so I'm leaving bedtime as-is for now.

I'm trying to stay moving and bouncing on my yoga ball, hoping it will make this girl come. I'm so done. My mom is here, helping and waiting with us. We had a fun day. We ate at the diner they frequent in My Name is Earl, because I wanted biscuits and gravy after a thread on CEP. It was good! Then we took DS to the park so he could have a good run around. Life has been boring with pregnant momma, so it assuaged some guilt on my part. And he had fun. Good news is since my mom is here we have free babysitting so if I'm not having a baby we might go to the movies or something.

Sent from my SCH-I545 using proboards
I'm glad it's not just us then! She just rolls around, plays with her lovey, etc.
water*drop, I'm sorry. Please talk to your new doctor about all of that. xo
DD has eczema on her feet now. It's all dry and peeling on her toes. H and my BFF both thought it looked like athlete's foot, lol. I called the doctor's office to ask and they said since it's not peeling between her toes, it's probably eczema. I am so tired of lotion. I hope baby #2s skin is not the sensitive. We already barely give her baths, use dove soap, double-rinse her clothes, use lotion all the time...uggghhh.

water*drop ((hugs)) I understand, really. I freaked out repeatedly when I was pregnant with C. We're doing okay at 5 months in. It helps to make short term goals/plans and try not to worry too much about how you'll handle everything long term.

DS1 is staying at my parents tonight so we just have DS2 at home. It's so easy and laid back!
I just sent DH and DS2 to the grocery store and I'm staying home to "clean" since we are having a ton of people over this weekend for DS1's bday party. But I'm going to finish my glass of wine before I actually start cleaning.
My hips are killing me. I took a pain pill, but it is taking forever to kick in. H is taking over hospital duty tonight. I could call him to come early, but he was here late this afternoon and I would like him to be able to sleep a little more. Plus, he drove all the way back to the hospital after he left this afternoon, because I forgot my phone charger.
I thought I started my period today, but it was just my hemorrhoid. (wilted)

Pioneer woman's whiskey glazed carrots are delicious. So not healthy though.

I started a good fight on a local mom group because someone posted about how awful parents who do CIO are. I gotta go find the "CIO is okay" articles just for funsies.
Brie, bronchitis made my chest feel tight and heavy, like my lungs had lead in them. I felt like I couldn't take a real deep breath. The cough also persisted even with PG-safe cough meds (Delysm). At night, I had to tuck a cough drop into my cheek to sleep.
I am making the most of only having gained 1 lb in the last 8 weeks. Today I had a cheeseburger and fries at TGI Friday's for lunch, then Starbucks, then we ordered pizza for dinner, and now H went to get DQ so I am waiting on my candy cane chill shake.
I need to stop this right now or I am going to weigh 278 lbs by the time this baby is born.

And now the whole thing was deleted because I argued with an admin.

We used a new babysitter tonight. She came recommended by a friend. We have only ever used our nanny or family. Both kids didn't get to sleep til 9 (even though I told her ds1 should be in bed at 7 cuz he didn't nap today). Ds2 (3 months) was in a regular diaper even though i put out a night one and it was still there. No sleep sack, same as diaper. The fan in his room on high and a heavy blanket over him. I'm going to have to write our rules if we ever use her again. I had high hopes cuz we could really use another babysitter.
I think they measured dd wrong at her one month app. At birth and 9 days she was 14th percentile. At one month was 94th percentile. I even commented that my kid shot up from the 14th and the nurse didn't check her measurements. I'm sorry but there is no way my kid grew 3 inches in 3 weeks yet somehow still fits in her newborn sleepers. I have no idea why this bugs me so much other than I wanted to put it in her baby book but it now feels like a lie, lol.
