Apparently I have the nose of a wolfhound. Ds2 was about 15ft away from me, in dh's arms, and I said "I smell baby poop". Dh gave his bum a sniff and didn't smell anything and told me I was crazy. We laughed. Five minutes later dh went upstairs to change ds2's diaper in preparation for a nap. He shouts down that I was right, giant poop.
My house is in disarray after the party yesterday. Half of the toys that usually line my dining and living room walls are now shoved into my office. I need to grocery shop but really just want to laze around all day.
We had planned a lazy Sunday before DD gets here, but turns out we're out of a bunch of stuff. So poor DH has to run errands. Staples, pet store, grocery store, and dropping off the dog. Sorry DH!
Yesterday for some reason DS did not nap. He was in his crib for two hours and quiet, but no sleep. We had an indoor pool party and he was clearly overtired when we got home. Went to bed at his normal time of 7. It's past 8 and he is still asleep!! Awesome.
If the weather is not too cold today, I'm taking him on his first trip to the zoo. A good friend of mine and her family are going, so it should be fun. DH will be staying home to work on our taxes. Sorry DH!

We have a St Patrick's day family party today (h's family celebrate the opening of an envelope, mil loves any excuse). I have photos of dd at the party last year at just two weeks old and she was soooo small. So weird that a whole year has gone by.
DH got up extra early and went and got us donuts. He's all proud of himself because he checked the coupon book before going. He also got a newspaper so I can pull out coupons I need.
I checked the settlement report for the consignment sale I'm selling at at the moment and I've sold most of my stuff. I'm excited but it makes me wonder if I could've priced some stuff higher. I'm also reasonably certain that a couple of my favorite rompers sold and I am regretting not pulling them out and saving them, even if we don't have another kid.

We had such a long and busy day yesterday, I really wish today was Saturday. DH and I ran a 7k race together and it was fun! I also kicked ass on my time. Unfortunately one of the guys we were with ruined the day by being a huge drunk asshole to his wife but that ended up insuring my DH got laid, lol.
Daniel Tiger has a new voice on the newest episode and I hate it!!
I have parent/teacher conferences all week long and have been working my butt off on my reports. I completed everything yesterday, and just have to reread and edit today. That shouldn't take too long. Then, there's everything else that's been on hold while I finish those...
Sometimes I think I need a protective suit. In addition to my burn on my wrist from my faulty iron, now have a huge bruise and broken skin on that hand from bashing my hand in to a shelf at the grocery store, yesterday. I also caught the bandage on the same shelf, so I scraped the wound a little bit. I seriously just need to sit in a chair and let DH wait on me today. Sure, that's gonna happen!!
DS is growing so much! He's walking, drinking out of a sippy, and can mimic a lot of the sounds we make. I can't believe this little guy is almost 1. I hope he also has a better day. He's cutting a tooth and was pretty miserable yesterday.
Finally using a groupon and heading to the zoo this morning!
Then groceries and hopefully some outside play time. It poured yesterday and the ground is soaked.
Also DH says the landscaping we had done last year has sunk a lot more than they told us and he's pissed. We may call to find out about having them bring more dirt, but E's party is next month and there's no way to have the dirt spread and grass in place in time.
I just remembered that I have 4 Target GC that I was keeping for teachers, etc. But, Target's shutting down, so I guess more shopping for me this week. Weeee!
H got up with E every time last night granted we didn't go to bed until like midnight, but still. He's the best!
We have pictures today and I'm excited! I'm hoping to get lots of good shots of the 3 of us and maybe some of just E. It's only a 10 minute slot so I don't know how much they can really do in that time. I really hope E cooperates! He's usually good so I think as long as he is fed and changed he will just sleep!
6 weeks pp and my insomnia is back. It's awful to not be able to sleep knowing what sleep you will get is severely limited.
I guess I will call the doc tomorrow to see if there's anything I can take. I don't need much usually, I took half a tab of unisom during pregnancy and before that used a tiny dose of trazadone and melatonin. Even Tylenol pm is s bit more than I need. I really hope there's something.
We loaned DS's KeyFit to DH's BFF, she used it for her DD, and we just got it back for our DD. I washed the cover and wiped everything else down. I was just putting the cover back on and moving the straps to the lowest levels and it hit me how TINY DD is going to be!!!
I met up with my group of friends from HS yesterday and it was great to catch up. 3 of us have babies and one is pregnant and one just got engaged. I just realized we didn't get a picture of the babies though. There are 4 boys amoung us. The pregnant one feels the pressure to have a boy, lol.
I think we will be having a lazy morning. DD is happily eating her breakfast and watching Jake aka Yo Yo Ho. I am eating Irish soda bread with loads of butter (really, is there any other reason to eat it if not for the butter??) and Irish breakfast tea.
I was hoping to have purchased DD's Easter dress yesterday, but the Target I went to did not have her size. They do not have it online either. I think I may sneak out to a different Target during nap if DH is home by then.
The real question is what will I squeeze my 30-week pregnant body into for Easter?
Had a great night last night! Went to open gym and then dinner with leonard131 and her family. The boys did great at dinner, which meant the adults actually got to have conversations!
Today's been a little challenging though. DS was up super early and has been kind of a mess all morning. Daniel Tiger and the trucks video to the rescue. I have to go to Costco, but might add a little consignment shopping in too. I need some clothes for DD, arriving this summer. I have so little that I can reuse from DS.

We had so much fun on our double date last night! I love hanging out with childless people because no one wants to talk about my kids/their kids for once. It's nice to have a break from that once in a while.
We were too full for dessert but ordered their signature brownie topped with candied bacon to go, so I have that to look forward to tonight.
Registering for MommyCon VIP was a nightmare. They sold out within minutes. By the time you entered your info and payment for one session and went back to add another it was sold out. I got into one VIP- The Leaky Boob, but wanted two others as well. I'm happy but still frustrated at their bad execution of it all.
