I went to the Getty museum with my friend today and she brought me a big piece of homemade peach cobbler for my birthday.
I love cobbler and I am going to eat the shit out of it with some ice cream tonight. (along with probably some cake because I am a pig) But of course my first thought was of MMM. Picture me eating my cobbler and giving the cobbler haters this disdainful look.

There are cobbler haters? I must have missed that.
I had DD's hair chopped today. I love it. DH seems happy with it (and yes, I did double check that he was ok with it first). My mom hates it, I think, but she's being very diplomatic about it.

About to get off the train. I have to stop at the dr. Office and get my weekly blood draw done before I get home. Then we are going straight out to dinner for my step dad's birthday.
I fucked up my back the other day. I am dyyyyying. Everytime I have to pick up B, my back spasms. It's going to be hot as balls the next couple of days, so I guess it won't be so bad if we're stuck in the house. I am just feeling super antsy because I only have 3 1/2 weeks left of maternity leave, and we've done nothing remotely enjoyable. Bah!

We were watching Ice Age 3 tonight and when they showed the squirrel encased in ice, DD said "OH MY GOD!". Oops
Also, she refused to wear pjs tonight so I put her to bed in her HA playdress. H is giving me a hard time about it, but I chose not to pick that battle. On the bright side, being back at DC after 2 weeks off left her so utterly exhausted bedtime only took like 2 minutes.
Forgot my random. My parents are taking my daughter next Thursday and Friday. Last time she took them, I worked early (7am). But next week I am going to work late (11am start) and I am going to sleep on on a weekday. (I don't usually sleep on on weekends either unfort) The sad part is that I am counting down the days until I get to sleep in. Normally I am counting down days to vacation or an event. Not this time.
My MIL took E all day. I forgot how much easier it is to have only one kid. I didn't get everything I wanted done but I got so, so much accomplished. I finally feel a bit calmer.
I called the hospital to get a copy of my records from P's birth and it gives me all the feels. I don't know what I'm seeking to accomplish but maybe it will bring me some peace to at least have some information about the surgery. The blame game is eating me up inside and I think I may try to find a therapist to talk it through.
Unrelated: tomorrow is half price cheesecake day at Cheesecake Factory. If loving mass produced chain restaurant cheesecake is wrong, I don't want to be right.
I've started reading Little House in the Big Woods before bedtime. So many memories. My parents read it to us at least 4 times. I miss my dad doing the voices.
I love the bob, Hilary. Dd1 had one for a while, but now she's obsessed with growing her hair out like her bff's. Boo.
the husband of a woman I've worked with for the last few years was shot and killed by one of their employees today I am so heartbroken for her.
DD flipped out when we went through the drive thru tonight for dinner and didn't actually go INSIDE the restaurant. She was screaming "BUT IT'S PART OF THE ROUTINE!"

Oh and I've been teaching DD "patience" and I think she's really getting it. The other day she was watching something on the iPad and it was buffering, and instead of touching it, she sat there and waited. I said "you are doing a really good job being patient" and she said "thank you!" (melt)
So I posted a bunch of pics on FB of our Nova Scotia trip. I'm friends with our optometrist and she messaged me on FB today to tell me that based on some of the pics she saw, she thinks Tessa looks like she might be a bit cross eyed.
I guess it's good she let me know, but now H is all freaked out about it
:/
I think it is a fairly easy fix with a patch, so at least you know early?
Well we signed the building contract. It took a hour. E was amazing playing on the tablet or coloring. Once we close on the construction loan its ramen for a while.
Also the realtor said that there should be a sold sign on the lot on Monday! Hello cheesy picture!
My H is in a mood today and I just cannot be around him. Ugh.
Tomorrow I am taking the afternoon off to go have lunch with my BFF and then go makeup shopping. Or something else equally girly. Now of course I want cheesecake thanks to Brie but that is an hour drive away…. THEN tomorrow night I have book club so that means even more me time. I can't wait.
We had a work related crab feast close to our house tonight. We know the partners of the sponsor company pretty well so I brought DS. We weren't even to the pavilion yet and I got stung by a bee on my foot. I've never gotten stung by a bee before! I though a hard piece of straw or something was stabbing me in the foot and I look down and see a huge black and yellow bee stuck in my foot! I put ice on it immediately so it's not swollen but it's itchy now.
DH and I drive separately so I could bring DS home. I bathed him and put him to bed, and am waiting for DH to get home. I am going to text him to bring me home a milkshake. All I had at the crab feast was a hot dog and I'm hungry!
If one more family member asks why DS2 isn't walking yet I will cut her. He's 15 months and has always been a little delayed with gross motor stuff. It really activates my mama RAGE when people even mention it.
