Poor Violet only took 2 10 minute naps at DC today. She's doing really well in other aspects, but I hope she finds her groove soon.
I miss my kids. I said screw it to making dinner tonight and sat and played with them. Violet is barely awake for an hour and a half after we get home.
Which photographer is it that you admire most? I admire your photography, so I'm curious to see who you look up to.
Kansas Pitts
Meg Bitton, too but Kansas is my absolute favorite.
And thank you. I'm not used to other amazing photographers admiring my photography so you caught me off guard! I'm blushing!omg Kansas that beach pic is spectacular!!! Not 1500 in the budget but still
Can I complain here? I know six months isn't too long to Ttc, but I'm emotionally exhausted and just want it to happen already. It feels like all of my college friends are pregnant right now.
It wouldn't be so bad, except my bestie/college roommate waited until 15 weeks to tell me and told a lot of other people first. That really hurt. I gave her no indication that I'm having a hard time hearing news like that (although she does know I've had multiple miscarriages). She told me on the phone so I had to immediately jump to happy and not upset it took so long to tell me. Ugh. I just feel like we aren't really friends anymore (I've visited her three times in the last three years and she hasn't been here at all) and I'm sad.
H said to me earlier, "You should probably get pumping. Your milk stash is getting low. " Get pumping?! I already pump twice a day at school which takes up the majority of my planning periods. When I'm at home W is attached to my boob. We're supposed to stay overnight away from the boys this weekend for a wedding and now I'm stressing out about milk. I guess I'm gonna have to start pumping on the weekend. Only 6 more months and he can have other milk...
You know it's big when my H is skipping the Blackhawks/Rangers game to watch baseball!
Apparently Rizzo donated a lot of money to cancer research at Lurie and is sponsoring a viewing party for the kids there. So he's automatically my favorite player.
H and I had an argument tonight about the fact that we still don't have any blinds on the living room windows.
I don't really want curtains, I like all the light. Apparently he's more modest than I realized, cause he's embarrassed about walking around in his boxers. Also his super sensitive eyes can't see the tv, pffft.
So, I'm sitting here trying to make myself pull the trigger on a $$$ purchase of shades and curtains. Giant windows are great until you have to buy custom window coverings that cost a fortune.
While telling Dh about my day (horrible, so horrible), Abby told me I need to get a job at her old school (in the same district) or come teach at her school. Even my 8-year-old recognizes that my school is a rough place to work.
