The medicine H is on somehow makes him have to poop at 6am everyday. Which is so cool because he wakes A up when I go change him and then falls back asleep leaving me with a grumpy A. At least it's Friday!
I had a moment last night. DH lowered C's crib and I had to take off his crib skirt. I made that skirt before H was born I loved getting to use it again for C. It struck me that I would never be able to use it again. I might save it for the next 30 years so my future DIL can awkwardly refuse it when I offer it to her for my grandbabies. Scratch that. I'll keep it for 30 years and then put it on the crib I have in my house for my grandbabies!
DD went to a neighbor's birthday today - six years old. She was the youngest at the party but there were a couple of recent four-year-olds there. She plays with a bunch of the five and six year olds regularly enough but this was the first time I've seen her with a big crowd of them. She held her own ok! I mean, there was obviously an age difference but she was so excited to be with the big girls and it was so sweet to see her included without being babied.
I mean, she's MY baby so I'm having all these conflicting emotions when I see her growing up but overall it was really nice. These were kindergartners though! Kindergarten! She's going to be in kindergarten herself in just 18 months!!!!!! Wasn't it just April 2012, like, yesterday?

Can you use it for anything else, like part of a window covering? That is, if you'd even want to as opposed to saving it 30 years.

I could make pillow covers out of it maybe but I think I'd rather just keep it.
Being awake from 2:30-5:00am and then going to work with 30 overly excited 5 year olds having a Valentine's Day party is not my ideal situation right now. :/

I woke up with my eye crusted shut. I want to cry. I feel so ridiculous and ugly in my new glasses and now I'm going to have to wear them for god knows how long.
Not to mention, I feel drunk in them. I just fell on the stairs at work Bc I have no depth perception. I'm currently stress eating Valentine cookies.
Lillian was up off and on from 1:15-4am. It sucked. She has a stuffy nose so she wanted tissues and water every 2 seconds. Sleeping with her in a twin bed that has a thing on it to keep her from rolling off the bed is pretty tight. I finally went into my room at 4 and then she was up at 7.
And our poor dog These seizure meds are starting to make her pretty out of it. She is having trouble getting up.
Currentky stuck in the car with an Andrew who had passed out after Madison's daycare stop off. He isn't going today because I had him in his highchair and was cuddling Madison and heard a strange noise. I turned just in time to see an endless stream of puke fly from his mouth. Apparently it's making its way through the school.
W's DC is closed today for a teacher inservice day. I took the day off and now I have MH home today too after his gallbladder surgery yesterday. I suppose I should get W out of the house so MH can have some peace and quiet to rest, but I really have no desire to take W anywhere today, esp since the current temp is 0*F.
Valentines party at May's school today. Then we are having heart shaped pizza, brownies and champagne for dinner. I'm trying a new brownie recipe with coconut and lots of melty dark chocolate.
Reading the HONY stories from prisoners is breaking my heart. They are all making me cry.
I heard on the radio this morning that they are creating a bunch of extra space for the homeless this weekend as temps will drop well below zero and they want you to call 911 if you see any homeless on the street. Even though it is a good thing it still made me cry
Sometimes the suckiness of the world is almost too much to bear.
Although yesterday I was walking to my train and I saw a couple of the regular homeless people I pass every day and they were watching a show on a laptop and laughing. It made me happy. I guess even in terrible situations there is joy to be had.

Andrew's preschool lets the teachers bring their kids to class on days when their school is out. His teacher brought her twelve and fifteen year old kids today. I LOVE it. The kids have so much fun with the older kids there. They get a lot more personal attention. A lot of these kids went here as preschoolers, too, so that's fun. I had a couple of eight year olds helping me with carpool this morning by walking the younger kids to class.

I had a dream that lauranicole91 got me a job at target. I went in for my first day and everyone was like 'wtf, why did we hire such a pregnant lady? She can only work for 6 more weeks!'
