pinkpeony6210 that's some huge news to slip into a randoms thread! Congratulations - house looks beautiful! Do your civic duty and provide us with floor plan porn that we can ogle!
Today is H's birthday party and I feel like I have been busting my hump to get it all ready. I made him a Buzz Lightyear cake by looking at a picture of Buzz and trying to recreate it with frosting. It took all my energy yesterday (and didn't turn out that great anyway) and then I was up until about 11:30 finishing up the rest of the decorations (this is very late for me). I'm exhausted and ran out patience for H yesterday. Today he was mad at me for not reading him a book and told me he didn't like any of his decorations that I have been painstakingly working on. I know he's only three but I feel like he's being very ungrateful and rude. I wish I had my weekend back.
Wow congrats pinkpeony6210! You've had a busy few weeks!
I don't know what to do about C's cluster feeding. She nurses at night on and off for a few hours. The last 3 nights she has had epic spit ups during her cluster feeding. She's clearly eating too much and taking in too much air. But I don't know what to do about it. Nursing is the only thing that soothes her but I can't stand thrthe spit up grossness.
It's been crazy busy. I'm so ready for everything to settle down!
Kate's birthday party was yesterday. She had so much fun, and loved celebrating, but I'm super happy it's over. Coming home from vacation, going right back to work, and then having her party was pretty tiring.
Heres a a picture of her cake...it turned out great!
We put an offer on a house yesterday, and the builder accepted. It's the model home for the neighborhood, so it's never been lived in, and has a lot of upgrades. We got it for an amazing price! BUT, it's contingent on selling our house, so I'm hoping once we put it on the market, it goes quickly.
And the house...it still needs landscape and a patio in the back. I wasn't a huge fan of the color(s) of the outside of the house (too neutral), but it's grown on me. I think with some nice landscaping, it will add some "flare" to the front!
I'm not a gardener, but even I can see how much fun you could have adding color with flowers. Good luck on selling your house!
I'm not a decorator, a landscaper, or a gardener. Every decision is going to be so overwhelming!
