Friday randoms part 2

[Deleted]

I left early to get in some good Piper time before parents night out and my trip this weekend. Yeah she's still napping. I am rocking out in the parking lot and answering work email. 2 hours to beer-o-clock.

DD is taking an epic nap after working hard during physical therapy. She did such a great job sitting (mostly supported, but was able to go 20-30 seconds unsupported). Her PT was impressed with her increased range of motion in her neck.

[starburst]

I swear I could set a clock to the length of DS's naps. 30 minutes on the dot.

We had our first parent meeting with the daycare that we are going to start E in September. I think it'll be really good.

E fell asleep on the way there (she's transitioning already to 1 nap lately) and of course woke up when we got there and was all smiles for the directors. When we got home I nursed her and put her down for her nap, and she's definitely tired. But as soon as I put her down she got up and cried for about 20 minutes, until she finally went to sleep. Sigh.

The stories DD is telling from going camping with my parents are hilarious!

I came home without kids. I made drinking chocolate, but I cooked it to the consistency of pudding. It is great.

I'm on the train again, this time on my way home. I'm feeling relaxed and refreshed and I'm excited to see my little man and my H too! It's still amazing to me that a year ago, I couldn't really leave him for more than 2-3 hours yet now I've been gone 30+ hours and it's no big deal. 2 year olds are awesome!

[celiacmom]

I had 9 interviews set up in last 2 days...1 showed up.... People work ethics sucks! But the one that showed up seems good so that's something...

[luv2rn4fun]

C's appointments went as expected. Hearing is fine, his speech is delayed. She thinks it's more a learning thing where he drops skills to focus on new skills. When she first observed him she was not concerned but then she asked me her various questions and he scored 9-10 months (he is almost 17 months old). She approved 6 weekly sessions and then we will reassess. Only bummer is they are 40 min away. Next up...house showing at 4-4:30!

This has seriously been the longest day, of the longest week in history.

I've been ready to go home since noon. I still have 25 minutes left. DYING.

Ditto.

Hence my over-posting on facebook all.day.long.

I took DD for donuts this morning and ran into her teacher there, who told me DD was chosen as Student of the Quarter!

So I have this coworker that invited me to his one year old birthday party. He hardly ever really talks to me. I am actually surprised he even thought of me as close enough to invite. I did not RSVP. I probably should have declined the invite when I got it. He just came asked me directly and I told him I am busy but thanks for the invite. It's so terribly cute how excited he is about this party. I feel slightly awkward now.

Also while I have a 19 month old she is way behind developmentally. He is all like the baby is crawling everywhere. I am not sure if I will ever want to take her to a party with other babies. That makes me sad and sound terrible. I just don't want to be comparing her since I have been avoiding it.

[Muddled]

I want a washing machine.

It is our "warrior day" today at the college (concert, fair like event). It is super loud and annoying, but it is what it is... Out of my 3 accountants, one called in; the other called me and left 5 minutes after it started because it gave her a migraine (we are really far away...like equiv of 3 city blocks from the concert). I am really annoyed at them both!

Oh no @natariru, I hope you feel better once you're back and settled.

We finally left the hospital and I had a panic attack in the car

I hope this doesn't keep up. I need to get better.

Hugs, woman. You are smart and capable and have a thriving 3 year old. You've got this.

Only 12 more minutes left. Yabba dabba doo!

If you are looking for something to binge, watch the first season of Unreal on Hulu. It was really good and the second season starts next month!

Last day of this year of preschool was today. How am I going to survive 5 straight weeks before her first week of camp starts? 

[niq]

I'm sure this is going to jinx it, but so far this PTing thing isn't so bad.

2x 30 minute episodes of Bear in the Big Blue House
45 minutes of Finding Nemo
45 minutes of Ratatouille

Plus two puzzles, some time playing/"helping" in the garden, and folding/unfolding hand towels.

I think it helps that I have no desire to try to get V to "finish" anything. Sure, let's leave this puzzle half finished and go outside.

[Marmee]

The kids school is REQUIRING a math workbook be done over summer break & turned in on first day of school. That school already has insanely high test scores so it's not like they are playing catch up. This is some bullshit if you ask me.

[aprilsails]

DD's cold came back with a vengeance after three whole snot free days. We have a million events this weekend and DH is busy so I'll be hauling her all over the countryside. I'm praying that this bout is better than the last.

Big hugs @natariru.

[miamigirl]

I'm stuck at work. I was about to leave and the company president asked me to do something that's not even my responsibility... I want to go home!

J was always like this! At least it was predictable I guess.

[turtlegirl]

MIL sent me this picture she took of DD and our dog earlier this week. Soooo sweet. It kills me that DD probably won't remember him. (He's 8 years old).

[spk926]

DH and I just spent an hour trying to get the head of the tick that I pulled off DS earlier out. The nurse said if we can get it all out then no need to come in but if we couldn't then to go to urgent care. Glad we were able to finally get it! DS nursed and then slept through it all surprisingly. Now we just need to watch for any redness in that area or a fever.

[chickens987]

@barefootbarista, I saw this at target today and thought of you but 5t might be too small?

[holly116]

I'm going through all the outgrown clothing and really, it's only the bitty stuff that gets me. The bigger sizes, I don't care at all, get it out of my house.

Also, I have approximately 20 sleep sacks in all sizes. And probably 20 swaddle mes. What the hell was I thinking?

I posted all the boys stuff first, on to the girl stuff. If you're at all interested, look tonight because it's all going to the yard sale tomorrow morning.

My dog is 11-13 We have had her for 10 years. DS is now 4.5. There is totally a chance DD will love your pup for along tim.

Today was commencement day. To see the students I have worked with so closely over the past 3 years walk across the same stage I did 14 years ago to receive their degree was awesome. Some of my students I have worked with so closely received huge awards & honors.

I am a proud mama & I totally cried my fave off.

[greycat]

My niece asked if I had a baby in my tummy today. She's not quite 5 so she gets a pass, but man that stung. I'm back to my pre-pregnancy weight (don't worry I'm overweight) and thought I was looking pretty good.

((Hugs)) @natariru
