I took The Lion King out of the library for L. Then DH reminded me of all the terrible parts of it. Now I'm kinda dreading watching it with her tomorrow.
I have a real, actual question I need help with, but I never have 2 hands free to type it all up!
ETA: The one-hand thing is also why I'm more of a "liker" than a poster lately...
Tonight got really FUBAR. DH got halfway through making tacos to realize we'd eaten all the tortillas the day before, and the cilantro was bad. So we scrapped that and went out to Italian. DS put stickers on the booth while we weren't looking DS asked to go potty with dadda (not me, huzzah!) and apparently stuck his hand in the urinal . He's currently getting a bath. The house is a WRECK and reeks of half-cooked ground beef. Ugh.
I can't wait to find out if #2 is a boy or girl but I have 6 more weeks until my AS At this point I had already known for 2 weeks that L was a boy!
I'm dying too. 5 more weeks! With boys my previous pregnancies I at least had a "guess" at the NT scan (was right both times). But not having any idea is just killing me!
With DS I started with an OB who did the panorama as standard procedure so I knew so early. But now I'm with a midwife and she doesn't do it unless you are over 35 or have a family history.
Drove all of the way to the grocery store with a mug of coffee on the top of my car. I only realized when I went to unload DS and saw that the car was covered in coffee.
This made me laugh.
DD skipped nap 2 and was cranky from 7 pm on. I made her quinoa and TJ's chana masala for dinner, excited for her to try it for the first time. She was screaming in her high chair and only calmed down when my husband let her suck down a pouch instead. She did eat a little bit of the quinoa dipped in the gravy so it wasn't all bad. I tossed her in bed at 8 pm to which she screamed but then put herself to sleep. I have a headache. It's been a while since DD and I hung out alone on a Friday. I forgot what it's like. Next time, I hope the weather is better and I will have a plan and we will go out because being indoors all day drove both of us bonkers.

DS came home singing this song today
Here we come a happy crew To sing our pi day song for you 3 point 14159 Though these songs are asinie When we're done we get to eat Pi day food is round and sweet!
DH already had plans to go out with friends after work so after being home with her alone all day I am all evening too. Her favorite thing to say is "no mommy". All day long.
I'm finishing nursing her, putting her to bed and taking a bath. DH can deal with dishes and cleanup whenever he gets home.
Of course as soon as I do baby foot J woke up and started screaming. Damn ear infection. I had to waddle into his room. H said it's karma for doing something stupid with my feet.

I am going to post a happy thing and then a disappointing thing in another post.
Happy- we walk by a music venue all the time. On Fridays M loves to stand outside the door and listen to sound check. We missed it tonight, and as we passed by on the way home, M was telling me he was sad about missing it. One of the members of the band ran to their van and grabbed a CD and handed it to Max as we walked by. M is so excited to have a CD that is his alone.

He officially knows more numbers of pi than i do.
I love this, not just for the digits of pi, but because he is singing a song with the word asinine.
We had a good weight check today. Up 19 oz in five weeks! Still 5th percentile, but growing. What a relief.
The pedi put M on children's Zyrtec. His skin is such a freaking mess. Poor baby was clawing his chest through the entire appointment, and pedi suspects allergies. I am blaming H for this. He has all kinds of allergies and skin issues.

Disappointing- My mom was supposed to come tomorrow, because my birthday is Sunday. She called Southwest today, because she couldn't find her confirmation number. She wasn't anywhere in their system. Apparently she never finished the transaction, so now she isn't coming. My kids are so sad about it, and I paid for a house cleaner today, because I didn't want to get my house to mom clean on my birthday weekend.

I've been cutting back on pumping and I have been enjoying not worrying about it so much. I thought I was doing ok but then I took a bath and tried to hand express a little and got all upset again. Ugh I hope this feeling goes away soon or I'll have to call the doctor. I feel like I have no control over it! Sorry if I'm a broken record about this but it does help to talk about it to people that understand.
In happier news though we are taking pictures on Sunday. I'm planning on doing a few more newborn pictures myself, but I really want some of the three of us. I usually don't like studio pictures that much but oh well. Hopefully E will cooperate and they will turn out well! Gotta figure out what to wear!
We went to OUAC to get some toys for Grandma and Grandpa's house. There was a rack of tutus near us and another lady pointed them out to her little girl. The little girl busted out with a "Well GODDAMN!" I about died. Totally made my day.
Sorry namasteak - house stuff can definitely be stressful. matildasun - that is so disappointing!
I also have a good and bad thing.
Bad - found out today that the wife of a former co-worker who is also a good friend of my husband has stage IV lung cancer. Apparently it's genetic. She's only 50, never smoked, lives a very healthy lifestyle. I picked up DS and joined them for a happy hour. DH is really broken up about it.
Good - Terps just beat Indiana in the Big 10 bball tourney! After we left happy hour since DS was starting to get a little stir crazy, we went to Noodles. The people there were like can we give your son a cookie? Um yes absolutely! DS was thrilled, as any of you that follow me on instagram saw from the photos I posted!
estrellita, hugs. I had a hard time finishing pumping emotionally (and I posted about it too!) but after about a week I felt like a new, less stressed woman. Hang in there!
I'm hoping soon I'll feel better! My sore nipples are making this a little easier, lol. I wouldn't mind that so much if I actually got some milk but the pain isn't worth the maybe 1oz!
Did I also mention my OB moved my RCS from 9:15am to 8am AND DIDN'T TELL ME?! Thank god the hospital called and told me I have to be there at 6am now instead of 7. Argh, I am really annoyed at having to wake up at 5am for a scheduled surgery.
You know what two things (and about the only two) things in life I won't eat are? Tun and Mayo.
I think she secretly hates me...haha.
Blech.
At least since I only had fruit salad, carrots and a spoonful of mashed potatoes I have like 600 calories left for the day. Which I will burn up with a ridiculous amount of wine.

OMG - that sounds so gross!!!! Tuna and mayo are just about two of the only things I won't eat either!
