The hurricane missed us and today turned into the perfect fall day. I got my free birthday coffee from Starbucks and headed to the pumpkin patch. Then on the way home, we saw the local fire department had an open house so Tyler got to play on the trucks and he loved petting the fire dogs. Plus, we ran into my ex at the fire department and he gained A LOT of weight.
I'm just heartbroken at what is happening in South Carolina. It still feels like my home and so many people I love might be losing their home and things today.
I know I feel so helpless.
I hear the rain is headed north. Stay dry.
I seriously can't stop crying. It is so silly but I'm so sad.
I'm wondering if I finally got a baby who will fall asleep random places. Ada never did and still doesn't sleep anywhere but her bed. He just falls asleep amongst the chaos.

I was 5 days late, and despite my H getting the big snip, it was really freaking me out. Praise Tampax I finally started today.
Honestly, my biggest worry about a potentially baby surprise was that I wouldn't want another N name. I wouldn't want it to look awkward with two the same and one different. My priorities are slightly skewed.
We had pictures with H's family this morning. Getting two toddlers and a baby to look at the camera had us looking like we were in a three ring circus. It was also freezing. Hopefully she got some good ones. Then we went to target and are now headed home. I need to meal plan and probably grocery shop but I don't want to.
Pictures this morning were okay. Just like the first family pictures we got, I'm pretty sure he got a lot of great pics of Dh with the kids and not me. Awesome.
@lindy I think it's a second kid thing. With the first, the house is usually quiet and you have more time to get a schedule going. With the second, it's like lay here while I make your brother/sister a sandwich LOL.
Olivia fell hard in the parking lot when we were visiting my H at work. It's was however cute to see him swoop her into the back of the ambulance to clean her up. Poor baby has scrapes all over her face and a big fat lip

We just got back to the hotel from the wedding. I have to put our clothes in the dryer because it POURED. There was water running down my face. Holy Hannah... Heading over to the reception in a little while.
I talked to my mom today. L is being super argumentative and all around difficult. My mom said L is mad that H and I are away without her. Two more sleeps until we're back with her
I'm so pissed at myself. We bought a new infant car seat for the baby back in April, but never opened the box. We bought another Graco Snugride, so we thought it would fit with the 2 bases we have. We open it today, and nope, bases aren't compatible. Apparently the Snugride 35 base (what we have 2 of) is different than the Snugride 22 (what we bought). Also, the new base does't secure half as well as the old bases, which is disturbing. I can't return it because it's way beyond the 90 days and who is going to buy a "used" car seat even though I just opened the box and cut off the tags? Now I'm not sure whether to buy another base, or buy another car seat that is compatible with the better bases. Why oh why didn't I open the damn thing back in April to double check?

Ugh, that is so frustrating. Are the other based cheaper than a new seat?
Today at the park for pictures, one of the picnic tables had "I love butt sex" written on it in marker. Madison named off all the letters and asked what it said. The photographer quickly said that it said I love butterflies. Lol.
So Cal people, the manic weather is making me crazy. Yay for rain today but now the forecast for next Saturday is 94! Misery! Yes, I am the Kathy Bates of weather.
I know!!! Today is so perfect but then.... Ugh. !!!!!
