I have to celebrate somewhere! I just slept straight through from when I fell asleep at 10:40 to when my alarm went off at 5:30. That has not happened since before I was pregnant!! When I realized what happened, I was so scared that something happened to the baby. He is still in our room and I had not heard one tiny peep all night. But he was perfectly fine! He'd been waking up 3x a night wanting a paci with a morning wake up of 5 am. It's now 6:06 and he is just getting up. It's a miracle!
Also, this is my Friday. We leave for northern Wisconsin right after work. I'm so excited for a weekend away, but the amount of crap stuffed to the gills in our car is insane. Giant Bob stroller, high chair seat that straps to a chair, pack n play, a giant diaper bag stuffed with food and toys, an entire suitcase filled with diapers, formula, bottles and all our clothes..I am not quite sure how we are going to fit.
I think I am having an allergic reaction the the progesterone shots I have to take for our FET. I started out itching at the injection sites a couple days ago and now my whole body itches. I had no problems with it when I was pregnant with DD so I wonder why it is causing such an issue this time.
Roughish night sleep wise. Not the worst but not the best. Weighed in at 189 today. Feeling ok about that. Going out for awesome Indian food tonight so can't imagine I will be below 190 tomorrow!!
Omg baby woke up every damn hour after his initial 3hr stretch last night. I'm supposed to meet friends For coffee but I kind of want to stay home and sleep.
Went shopping today to look for a few casual shirts, no luck. It doesn't help that there are only 3 stores I can shop at here...not many plus sized people in Spain!
Still waiting to hear if our tenant will stay the winter at a reduced rent or if we are moving back to the States earlier than expected. The wait is KILLING the planner in me :-p
It's normal for DS to be nursing less if he is teething, right?
Yes!
Hello October!!! So happy to be in a new fiscal year and that we have a budget, for now.
Just waiting to see what happens with the hurricane. DH is being super paranoid right now and wants me to buy allthethings tomorrow when I'm off. I keep reminding him we're in a small apartment, there's only so much room. I'm hoping it heads west and the whole weekend isn't rained out.

I just about listed L on kijiji again this morning. After waking up at 4:51, he was a cranky, clingy, crying mess. He either wanted me to play cars with him on the floor or watch "pups" or "choo choos" on the iPad. I wanted to de neither. It was freaking 5:00 in the morning kid, let me drink my tea in peace. I don't know what happened to his ability to play independently. He used to do that so well but not lately. Then he freaked out when I tried to change his poopy diaper, waking my poor H up who worked 25 of the last 48 hours and who didn't get home until 1:30 this morning. Luckily, he seems to have turned it around so hopefully the day will improve from here.
DS woke up at 4 with a night terror or something about his pillow. He was really flipping out. I must have woken him up and then he was wide awake asking to watch Daniel or Room on the Broom. I ended up having to yell at him that it was still night time.
Then he woke up screeching at 6 because he picked off a scab and it was bleeding.
DD spiked a fever last night, and DH has a huge work thing today, so I'm home with her. We're watching frozen. There was a confirmed case of strep in her room at daycare, so I'm hoping it's not that. DS is either coming down with yet another illness, or the new antibiotics stopped working. This is week 6. And I have a cold. My life is super fun right now, guys. I know you're jealous.
Apparently my husband is golfing with his boss today. So he decided to take a shower when I got out, which delayed our morning routine by like 20 mins. I am so pissed. When it's his day to leave early he gets ready and leaves. When it's my day he does this shit. Plus I still do drop off. I cried while making coffee.
Ds1 came downstairs this morning with my bra and underwear and does look what I have for u mommy. I was all of what?? Your boobydress and underpantsies I died. And made him repeat boobydress lol
Ds has already pooped in his underwear today ugh. I threw them away, I would have lasted about two cloth diaper changed before giving up lol. He did tell me he had to pee at 6:30 am though, he's doing so great on that end.

We're freaking out too. We're in the country and lose power from random thunderstorms, I'm sure Joaquin will knock out power. Our electric utility ALREADY emailed us to tell us to expect power outages. Ugh. We're pretty well prepared, we're just going to top off our canned goods supply today. I keep reminding DH that we are BROKE, and not to put emergency supplies on the CC.

Dropping off my kids with MIL for 3 nights tonight. I am excited for the free time, but am also feeling bummed because I will miss them. what is wrong with me? LOL We are going to a college football game on Saturday and I can't wait. Going to tailgate with friends too!
ETA: I will miss the baby mostly. The 6 year old...eh
No big plans during the day so maybe I'll hit the mall. Tonight we got a babysitter bc we were supposed to go to the Orioles game thanks to a company that has a suite and gave us free tickets. due to the weather, the game was moved to this afternoon. But since we already booked the sitter, we are going to get dinner at Capital Grille since we have a gift card and then meet friends to watch the Ravens Steelers game! I'm pretty excited!
My unborn child and C are conspiring against me. I don't think I'm ever going to sleep again. Another night of not being able to get comfortable enough to fall or stay asleep, and then C woke up at 4am ready to play. No, dude. Go back to bed. He wouldn't go back to sleep in his crib, so when he came to my bed the second time after putting him back down I just gave in and let him sleep between H and I. On days like today I sure wish I liked coffee. Instead I rolled through the McDonald's drive-thru and started the morning with a biscuit sandwich and Dr. Pepper.

I went on my weekly girl's night last night and we did the late night happy hour at Applebee's and topped off the night buying diapers and laundry detergent at Walmart. My, how my life has changed Party animals, over here. Also, totally random, but I bought DD a bunch of tops and a few pairs of leggings from Walmart last night (Garanimals brand) and they are super cute for the price.
It feels like fall and I love it! It's only 42* right now and the high for the day is going to be about 60*.
So I had to break out the full fall outfit. I'm wearing a cute maternity jean dress (I swear it's cuter than it sounds!), leggings and brown riding boots. That paired with the chai latte I'm about to make in our Keurig makes me happy.
