My baby decided to be up for the day at 5. I tried for two hours to get her back to sleep. No dice. We are already at one blowout, one meltdown, and one refusal to eat. Oh boy.
It is supposed to snow on Friday/Saturday and there are estimates up for 30 inches, which is BALLER. I won't have to go to work Friday and my FIL won't be able to stay the weekend. Yesssss
Andy has been waking up early lately, which sucks for H but means I get to see him before I leave for work. I love it. :-)
Puddle--how sweet is N's little valentine gift? LOVE indeed :-)
Aww, you will sleep again, I promise. Lots of hugs and coffee to you today
I can't decide which show I should watch next on Netflix. I'm torn between Downton Abbey, Friday Night Lights and Scandal.
I got a new winter coat at the Land's End outlet yesterday and I lurve it. It's warm and pink and the right size and it was on supah clearance.
DS's class had to decorate a vest (made out of a paper grocery bag, lol) with 100 things for their 100th day of kindergarten. I was cutting out shapes from construction paper for him to paste on there and he said, "Mommy, you should be a teacher. You're really good at cutting stuff. I'm serious, you're really good." I'm so not crafty and these were def nothing special, but it made me smile.
I actually slept good last night- I could have used one more hour.
Two weeks from today until mediation with xh. I'm nervous/anxious.
I got a xanax prescription because I've had trouble sleeping. I took Saturday night and slept for 10 hours straight. It was amazing. I'm a little disappointed though that I don't get more of a high from it, lol.

Sleep training is not going well with the dogs. I am exhaused.
H and I finally booked our vacation to Italy and Greece for this September. I'm so excited! We'll be going to Rome (I have been, H hasn't), Sorrento, Pompei, Capri, Athens, Mykonos and Crete.
I can't get sick before my trip or else I won't have enough vacation days.
I can't brush G's teeth bc of her lip, and omg her morning breath is the stuff of legends.
The striderite outlet is having its BOGO sale this week and I am totally going to go buy way too many baby shoes today. (that's where we were yesterday when G fell).

This sounds amazing! How long are you going to be gone? This is pretty much the trip I want to convince H to go on.
Sleep deprivation aside, puddleofgrace, your #2 random is really sweet
I'm taking off work the rest of the week to help my mom out Thursday and Friday. Her lumpectomy is tomorrow and, I know she's crazy apprehensive, but I can't believe that after treatments this week and then surgery tomorrow, this cancer bs will be done. She was so so fortunate to have been diagnosed so early this time around

We'll be gone 17 days. I've been wanting to go to Greece forever!
I have a cold. I seriously have not had a cold in almost three years. I feel like crap, thankfully it isn't the flu. We have an early release day for professional development, I think I might go home and sleep instead.
Aw, puddle, I'm sorry I felt that way, too pretty much all of November, December, and most of January. Then, the heavens opened up and M miraculously started sttn. It's been almost 2 weeks now!
I hate it when I bring coffee from home, because I drink almost all of it in the car and have none for when I get to my desk. First world problems.
I have a new hire sitting with me until lunch, and I really need to pump :/
My mom is coming to stay with us this weekend and I'm super excited! I hate living away from her now that I have a kid.
H has the night off from his second job, and will be off from his full time job around 1pm today. I told him I will get M from daycare at 5:30, but that means he has to clean today. Lol.
We still have not received DH's W2 yet from his new job. He was only there for a few weeks last year so I doubt it will change much but I just want to get it done.
I ordered a light box and it is coming in today, I can't wait to go home and use it! My anxiety is pretty well controlled right now but I am hoping this will give me a little extra kick.
I bought gummie vitamins yesterday and I thought of cville looking down her nose at me, ha! I had one this morning and no stomach ache so I am sticking with it.

Good to know. I wonder if that is for all of the outlets. We are in DS's biggers shoes now and need to buy some of the next 2 sizes up. I swear he grows 2 sizes overnight and then not again for 6 months.
Puddle- I am sorry you went to bed crying I did too, so at least you weren't alone? Lol.
1. Things were much better yesterday. I got to talk to a friend for 45min and it made me feel like myself again for a minute. Also, Charlotte gained back 4oz that she had lost. Thank god. Only a few more oz until she is back at her birth weight. She originally lost 8% of her weight. I am glad we are on the upswing.
2. DH passed his REA state exam. So glad that is finally over. He also had a great day at work. So he was much less stressed last night.
3. A work friend (my replacement actually) and my boss are bringing me lunch today. I can't wait to see them and talk to them.
4. I found a quiet time in the morning to snuggle up with DS. DH takes Charlotte with him while he is getting dressed and I get a full 30 min to play and snuggle him. Granted, it's at like 6:30am and I could be sleeping, but whatever - ill take it.

For 100's day this year, Ds is suppose to dress up as what he would look like at 100 years old. How do I do this? Just throw some clothes an old man would wear, on him? What ever happened to bringing in a hundred macaroni noodles, or pennies or something?
Ds2 slept wonderfully last night. Didn't wake up once. Thank the good lord lol.
Oh my random- I made this (http://jcocina.com/easy-korean-beef-over-rice-what-its-like-to-live-with-a-food-blogger/) for dinner last night and it was awesome. DH and DS both ate it. I added a package of sauteed crimini mushrooms and did a steam bag of frozen stirfry veggies. Dinner was finished in about 20 mins. Suck it Rachel Ray.
@lazerus24, I'm glad you got some time with your DS and that talking to your friend made you feel better!
Also, because I suck, I haven't sent out that box of stuff to you yet, but I promise I'm doing it this week! I got some things together for you last night.
I am going to take a GBCN break. I feel like it is a time suck here. I want to be more productive at work. I want to be more productive at home. I complain about how I am so busy in both areas, yet here I am. I need to get out of the habit of checking in here so much. I am still going to check in a couple times a day. But i am giving myself a time limit.
Also my random is we would have gotten a really big tax return this year, but we owe back a bit of money from the interest free home buying loan we got in 2008. So I guess yay that we don't have to pay out of pocket but boo that this is the first year we would have gotten a couple grand out of our tax return. Thanks Leo and having more childcare cost.

Daycare is doing this too. DS is wearing a plaid shirt, floral bow tie, and shawl collar cardigan with his little plaid jeff cap. I have no idea what else to put on him. He's 2 for crying out loud. 1/2 of his class didn't even participate in PJ Day last week so we always look ridiculous.
I am going to my first Zumba class tonight and i'm really excited. It looks like we are getting some snow on Fri/Sat. I waitress Fri night and Sat day so I plan on making no money this weekend

That's what I'm worried about lol. I don't know how many kids will participate, so I don't want to go overboard. Old man clothes it is!
