I'm massaging my liver to prepare for tonight's festivities.
I strategically swapped "who's turn it is to sleep in" with DH several nights ago, so that it would be MY turn to sleep in tomorrow. So I can get drunk tonight! I don't think he's realized that yet, as we usually remind each other who's turn it is as we're going to bed. When he realizes it's MY turn, not his, I'm gonna be all
I'm disappointed the Zantac is not helping ds2 sleep better.
I'm SHOCKED FIL has gifted us a low 5 digits amount of money. We are going to be responsible with it but that's just fine since we are so happy to have our efund back up to 6 months (esp important since DHs company mainly consults for O&G firms).

I did the exact same thing! Haha
Haha awesome! He got a good deal, too. We stayed up until midnight last night drinking with friends (very unusual for us). DH was so drunk he slept through DS's wake up, which is his job. I handled that without complaining, in addition to DD's THREE wakeups. AND he got to sleep in this morning. DH was very appreciative.
I'm going to a party but am sure to be home early. In disappointing news, my H is staying home with an under the weather kid. Sometimes parenting feels so much like shift work! I miss my H/buddy/friend.
Please buy yourself something fun with at least a little of it!!
We are going to keep our HS sitters 2 days a week until they graduate in May AND I'm going to take reformer classes for 3 months longer than I thought I would be able to (6 months total)
Screw today's release of the AG Doll of the year (oh look, another blonde GOTY snoozefest!), news about the 2016 African American doll has been leaked. Melody Ellison, from the 1960s. Here's the book cover. She looks like such a cutie! I can't wait to hear her story, and see her wardrobe.Â
Oh, that is exciting! She's cute & the 60s should be fun. That'll definitely be on my list to buy my niece...already bought her a Bitty & accessories a couple years back, she's 4 now & that's when I bought my girls their "big" dolls. My brother bought my DD a robot for Christmas this year so he can't give me crap about spending that much on his DD

i "liked" your post b/c I totally agree!
We just had our first (he's only 6 weeks old), but it already feels like we often are two ships passing in the night, so to speak.

H is playing a party tonight, and I'm taking the kids to see Alvin and the Chipmunks and letting them stay up late (but not until midnight). I may need a drink before this movie lol.
In other news, our new dining set was delivered today. It's so nice I don't want us to eat on it!
DD4 has been out of diapers since noon... Score: 2 pee accidents, 1 pee & 2 poops on the potty. Dry over the nap. I think she's getting it. Fingers crossed...I've been changing diapers 11 out of the last 12.25yrs. Lol
Foot surgery recovery is not a terrible way to spend NYE. I'm in bed, feet up, watching Trainwreck. I can hear MIL and H wrangling the kids downstairs. Ahhhh.
We "celebrated" with poppers and blow horns at 7 pm. I'm in my jammies drinking champagne.
DS2 had his 3 year well check today. When the doctor asked if he could stand on one foot he did a full on arabesque move. When she asked if his speech and vocabulary was good he said "goo goo gaa gaa." This kid kills me
He will also tell you my first name (fairly obvious from my SN) if you ask.
Last weekend we were eating lunch and I didn't respond to C's request for something quickly enough, so he started shouting my first name over and over until I responded. I told him my name was Mommy, but he knew better. Stinker.
Took DD out for pizza, and once she's asleep we're having steak and sweet potatoes.
We had a new wireless home security system installed today. They installers were here all day asking me a million questions and I had the most annoying 2 year old home with me all day. She shrieks and screams allll day. I told DH not to talk to me until I have space lol.
@natariru L is obsessed with nipples right now too. But he confuses the word with pimples sometimes...makes for some funny comments about his toddler acne
When my youngest sister was really little, she was staring straight into my eyes and said, very seriously, "wow! Your nipples are huge!!" She meant my pupils.
DH sent me out for sushi since we aren't sure about my pizza. 4 pieces pepper tuna, 4 pieces shrimp, salmon Roll, tuna roll, and some yummy sounding combo roll.
It's the 12th anniversary of our first date so we always have pizza since that's what we ate on our first date
Fwp. 2nd trip to bbb for curtains for our bedroom. Second set looks as bad as the first so now I get to drive back (35 min) tomorrow for round 3. I seriously am sad. I really wanted pretty curtains up.
My nye consists of a bath, Netflix and bed around 1030. Dh is drunk painting the basement mechanical room. He asked if I thought it was a good idea and I said sure why not since he has the ambition. No one will see his screw ups except us.

I worked 10 hours for a rollout today and am exhausted. We're about to put M to bed and then I think I'll take a bath and have some chocolate. I have to go into work tomorrow.
I survived my first fussy baby / latch refusal! Every feed in the hospital he immediately gave me a perfect latch. Our first feed at home, he started FREAKING. He couldn't get latch, kept getting super worked up even after taking breaks. First time he has ever cried for more than just 30 sec or so and it was going on intermittently for 2 hours. It just wasn't working. We tried swaddled baby, naked baby, every hold and side (with breaks in between of course). Finally I said enough, stripped is both down and laid in bed in a dark room with him on my chest and my husband next to us until he calmed down for awhile. He gave me a perfect latch and a wonderful feed. I was so close to freaking out and glad we were able to get through it. I totally felt like his mom at that moment.

A local restaurant did a princess party with New Years countdown at 5.30-7pm. Dd had a blast. Our server was Anna from frozen who she adored. At the end the princesses all sang Let It Go and 50 little girls in costumes sang along, it was so cute.
I think I decided to CIO with DS tonight. I think. I can't tell if he is off because of teething though, and feel like that is the wrong time to start. But he could teeth forever.

The bp near my house. I had to make reservations about a month ago but it was totally worth it. I bumped into our mutual friend there so it would have been funny if you had gone.

I bumped into her and her DH and both kids at drop in, at the same time as I was there with two of my closest friends who are teachers, lol.
