Ds1 is eating a hot dog. It's pretty much the first thing he's eaten more than 1 bite of since Thursday. He also ate an applesauce pouch so I'm relieved that he must be starting to feel better. Yay for 2 days of antibiotics.
Omg and I was bit for the first time ever at bedtime and omg ouch!!!!! I weaned ds1 before he got teeth and ds2 got them last weekend.
Nice! I recommend getting a pedicure about 10 days after doing Baby Foot. The last of the peeling is happening and they just buff all of it off for you. Baby Foot combined with the pedicure has given me the smoothest and nicest looking feet I've ever had.
I'm being lazy on the couch while H and E are out on a walk. The cold I thought was getting better suddenly turned into an ear and sinus infection; I woke up at 1 AM Friday with major pain and pressure in my right ear. Went into work for a few hours since I didn't have my work computer at home, then dodged out and went to the doctor for verification. Lots of fluids and rest for me this weekend.
I suppose I should be working on dinner prep while the guys are out...

My kids have been in bed since 7pm (bedtime is normally 8pm) because we were up half the night. I honestly might go to sleep in the next half an hour. I'm that tired.
DD is in the tub and I'm playing on my phone. H is away overnight for a bachelor party and I don't think he's having a great time. I have a chocolate stout cake cooling in the kitchen to bring with me to work on Monday and it is going to take a lot of self control to avoid cutting into it.
I just put DS to bed. MH is working on dinner and I'm relaxing. We have a crazy deadline at work. I've been working like a maniac (including a good chunk of the day today) so I'm enjoying doing nothing.
I'm just going to throw more randoms here since I barely was on the board all week. I'm almost two weeks in to Whole30 and feeling great. No issues feeling tempted by anything off-plan, and I'm definitely satiated. But for some reason I've now had two dreams about binging on completely ridiculous food... like Necco wafers. WTF, brain?
1 week until we move and I still need to pack clothes, living room, kitchen and s big closet
I bought some one pan meals that be easy to cook this week so we don't spend quite so much $ eating out. I haven't tried 2 of them (TJs Kung pao chicken and TJs teriyaki chicken) so hopefully they are good!
I'm exhausted from taking DS to a birthday party at an indoor pool. It was a lot of fun, but being in the pool really energized him so he was running all over the facility during pizza and cake time.
Now I'm lying on the couch while DH runs out to pick up pizza and chicken tenders. I really really wanted pizza since the two bites of pizza I had at the party tastes amazing.
Also @vicmo - I sent you an Instagram request, since I'm sure you have no clue who the request is from! I'm felixjp there.
I'm in a bad mood. H's birthday was supposed to be fun but it's sucked for a variety of reasons. He has a stomach bug (still) and so our fun plans were ruined.
I'm going out for Redbox and Gatorade for him/dinner for me. Hopefully things start looking up.
Is it a dick move to eat his birthday cake in front of him?

My parents took the kids for the day so they could work on a "secret project", which was making me a birthday cake for our family dinner tomorrow.
DH and I got so much done! We ripped out 6 trees in the backyard and then DH played 4 new ones while I spent 4 hours painting our master bathroom. Whew! Apparently it's not the pregnancy sucking my energy, it's having the kids around, haha!
DH reports that C ate an incredible amount of food today. This would make sense as I started shopping for summer so she should have a huge growth spurt to negate my efforts.

Sounds like we're having the same kind of day. I already made the Gatorade, pesto and saltines run too. DH actually told me I could have a piece of his DQ birthday cake but I told him I would wait for him. Then again I'm on weight watchers and not cluster feeding a newborn. If I was you all bets would be off.
We put DS1 in time out in his room at 5, and he's been asleep since. DS2 went to bed on time a bit ago. Now I'm at five guys waiting on our burgers and fries. I plan to eat in front of a tv show, then take a long bath and go to bed.
H wanted to order chicken wings even though we already ate dinner so I quickly got on the treadmill and did a (half ass) run so I wouldn't feel so guilty eating them.
DD has way too much energy. I can't wait until it's finally nice enough to get outside and let her run around.

Pesto?
I feel like the DQ cake will keep indefinitely in the freezer, whereas this cake will not, also.

We're OOT for the weekend visiting our old college town. Part of me feels like it's 1999 and the other part feels like we're in a foreign country. So much has changed!!
We just got back to the hotel from H's grandparents anniversary dinner. 70 YEARS!! We got to see my old college roommate today, DS has been doing lots of swimming, and we get to meet the water*drop family tomorrow! Good little weekend, I'd say.

We're hanging out binge watching Breaking Bad. We tried watching it before and didn't get into it but this time we really are! I should really be figuring out outfits and any props we want for pictures tomorrow...

I got home from my work trip today, and DD was so excited to see me! That was fun. She just broke her flashlight that she keeps by her bed, though, so now she's really upset.
We're really excited to meet jackpackage and family tomorrow!!
We've had guests all day. They just left and I'm kind of drained. The kids are in bed and I just ate more of the blueberry custard pie I made earlier. Now I'm drinking a yummy beer called pure fury.
My great aunt died today. My grandmother was one of 9 kids, and there were only 2 still alive. I'm sad for her littlest sister, who's the only one left. And also selfishly sad that one more connection to my grandmother is gone.
Coincidentally, I had taken The Lion king out of the library the other day, and we were watching it when the call came. Sitting there, snuggling my babies, listening to "circle of life"... Sniffle

Why are my kids not sleeping?? DS1 just came out of his room for the billionth time tonight to tell me that he misses my parents and that jammies aren't clothes. That's fine, kid! Just sleep!
DS2's sleep has just been getting worse and worse. I had to stop swaddling him because he outgrew his swaddle sack and that's not helping. I'm having flashbacks to the awful nights with DS1 who did not STTN until he was 2. I had gotten my hopes up that DS2 would not be the same way so I am kind of freaking out now and afraid that maybe I am the reason they don't sleep. I don't know what to do with him.
