I didn't see one started...
I feel horrible. So horrible that I took a pregnancy test this morning: not pregnant. Not sure how I felt about it, but had a brief thought of twins (both my parents are) and panicked, so definitely not four!
Of course, the construction of our master closets start today, so no laying in bed for me during nap time.
I think I'm just exhausted and run down.
Blah
Update: called DH and apparently he feels the same way. OMG, in 10 yrs we've never been sick at the same time. I'm praying this is not the flu! Today will be a TV day. Thank goodness he had zero TV time yesterday!
Last week E had no problem in her new room. Yesterday and today she cried when I left. Plus this morning is her birthday and I felt awful. She kept asking for hugs and I knew she was stalling, but I tried to get her to stay in her seat and eat. Gah I hope it gets better b/c I know being on vacation next week is going to throw her off.
My H, who has been so amazing since the baby was born, told me yesterday that he is jealous that he doesn't get a break when it seems like my whole day is a break because I just hold the baby and watch TV, and we don't do anything. (He works from home.)
I completely lost it. On top of the bottles and constant diaper changes (seriously, this kid is a poop machine), I sing songs, read books, talk constantly to him, do bouncy chair play with him, snuggle, do tummy time on my chest and sometimes the floor...what else am I supposed to do with a newborn?! And then when that's not happening, I am showering, pumping, washing bottles, folding laundry or whatever. Do I take an hour when he's napping to just hang out? Yes. And I deserve it. Also, the TV is mainly background noise, and I just look up occasionally to see the final house renovations.
I asked if his time with the baby felt like down time to him and he immediately realized how dumb his comment was, and apologized, but grrrr.
Had 6 month Dr appt yesterday. Babies weigh 11 & 13 1/2 lbs. Tiny peanuts. Dr was happy with progress though. He keeps pushing doing cereal but I was not wanting to do it at all. I think once they start eating more then 1x a day I might do oatmeal. I saw on pinterest how to make my own and it said it freezes well with fruit so might do that just so they get more iron.
Went to DD daycare today to read/sing to the class. It was a bit intimidating standing in front of 20 toddlers. At the end the teacher instructed them to give me a kiss. So I got 20 germy mouth kisses from them...I will be surprised if I don't come down with something :-)
I was out of the office yesterday to attend a funeral. I'm am dreading, DREADING going in today. This workload is crushing, especially when compounded by my awful Boss.
The plan is for me to go on our Europe trip, get pregnant, take advantage of the maternity leave benefits and then quit. Whether I have something else lined up or not.
A barista was a flat out bitch this morning at Starbucks. I asked a question about the way my order was rung up to the guy ringing up my order and another one got all snippy about it, told me I was wrong and that he did it right. Um. If the price is different than it was yesterday, something's not right. It's a standard drink straight off the menu. I was half tempted to walk out and cancel the order.

I would be sending an email to Starbucks. That's ridiculous.
I'm wearing a new JCF dress today. It's a bit shorter than some of my other dresses and I'm definitely conscious of it.
DD fussed on and off from 3:40 to 5 and I couldn't get back to sleep. Blech; not how I wanted to start the day.
G did this too. And was up twice before that. Yawn.
I'm pumping at work and my office door is behind me/over my shoulder. I just about fell out of my chair because I thought I had left my door open. Phew.
I woke up with a headache and am in no mood for work today. I am the only one that does my job and have a backup for when I'm out. Except my backup is an idiot and every time I come back from time off I spend the day fixing things and trying to figure out what the heck he did! I had a week off a month ago and things are still popping up that need to be dealt with. UGH!
I'm reviewing my lab results on the patient portal for my clinic and just noticed that they input my weight wrong. They gave me a 20lb weight loss! If only it were true...
C's lip looks WAY worse this morning. My poor little buddy.
A rolled over 5 times, so I am guessing not a fluke. Girlfriend is only 3 weeks old...E didn't roll until 3 months, then took awhile to do it again. I prefer less mobile babies, because they stay where you put them!
In an effort to quit eating so much crap, I had 2 eggs and 2 pieces of bacon for breakfast. And I bought lettuce, avocado, black beans, etc to make salads for lunch. We'll see if protein takes away some of the raging hunger that ends with me eating cookies.
I think I am going to order the City Select double stroller. I can get 5% off at Target with my redcard + $15 back in gift cards for the second seat, snack tray, and carseat kit. And 2% ebates. If anyone knows of a cheaper way to get it, let me know before I spend like $700 on a stroller. Pre-baby me would be gagging at the idea of spending $700 on a double stroller, LOL.
He got momentarily upset when he thought I wasn't going to let him keep his road banana but then I took it and put it on a plate for him and the teacher added some waffles and he was happy as a clam. Of course all the other kids were like "where did that banana come from?" but I don't care!!!!!!!!!!!
My brother posted some mushy, eye roll worthy status update this morning for his birthday.
My mom just texted me to tell me that it's because there was a girl who hung herself yesterday in the residence hall he manages. One of his staff members cut her down and started CPR. My heart breaks for everyone involved
It's DH's work BFF'S last day. I know he's super bummed on top of the total craziness that it will mean for work itself. It's a very small business and DH is going to have to start doing both jobs (that are very different from each other) until the owner figures out what they are going to do next.
And my boss is less than 2 weeks from her due date. So needless to say, we are both going to be stressed about work for the next month! Ahhhh!
krystee at least H redeemed himself when he realized what jack ass comment it was :-)
matildasun thinking of you. We were watching the news last night ( we get the local Baltimore channels) it is crazy. So sad that it has escalated like this.
I just bought M this shirt. I knew H would totally love it as his dream is to intern at record shop. That is after he goes off gird in Alaska and lives aboard a cargo ship. He has lofty goals.
sorry krystee we had a very similar fight in the early days and it was not pretty. I'm pretty sure I also through in a "I was pregnant for 9 months and didn't have the easiest delivery. I'll sit on my ass if I want to!"
I'm the daughter of a retired Detroit police officer. I understand why the riots are happening. My father's response is, "WTF do officials think will happen if cops keep killing?" WHY CANT OTHER PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THE BASE ISSUE HERE???
On a lighter note, I'm taking C to my parents this afternoon whil H is at work. I'm shopping and eating lunch ALONE! Squeeeeeeeeee!
