We came back from vacation a day early because DD was sleeping so horribly and we figured going back home to her own bed would help (among other reasons for leaving). Nope. She is sitting by the door in her room and crying. DH let her fall asleep on him about an hour ago but once he put her to bed she of course woke up. So here we are.
And before she fell asleep on him, she opened her childproofed bedroom door. Sooooo now we can't just trust that she is roaming around her room safely and are worried about the stairs since our gate can't be installed up there. If she wakes up in the MOTN and leaves her room, hopefully she has the smarts to wander into our room.
My super exciting night involved making a doll bed mattress and pillow out of hunks of foam, fabric, and glue - pretty ambitious for non-crafty me. (I got the bed at a consignment store and its lack of mattress was driving me insane, not that DD really cares.)
I got glue all over my hands and am reallllllly enjoying peeling it off, lol.

I decided to be all hurricane level breezy about naps today. Both kids fell asleep by 4 pm. Chaser still managed to fall asleep at a normal bedtime, but Nods keeps tossing and turning. I usually sit in a chair in her room while she is falling asleep. She only lets me leave without complaining when I have a legit excuse.
Hey glitzy07 and cincodemayo did you guys hear if you go into ECFE? I don't think it was full so I think everyone got in but maybe I'm wrong. I got a phone call today and that's what she made it sound like.

My kids got ringworm from God knows where. Not a big deal at all as far as kid crises go...but still. FFS. Really.
I'm looking forward to this weekend of just hanging out at home. Tonight it was so hot the kids didn't even want to be outside so we rotated toys and just played inside. It was nice and they played well.
Tomorrow I'm debating the pool or just more play with stuff we haven't seen.
I'm just chilled out now catching up on the internet.

H went out on his cousin's boat today. I anticipated that he wouldn't be in any shape to drive home and told him to just stay there, but he better be back in time for me to go to an Insanity class at 9:30 tomorrow.
I've had 2 very tall vodka sodas and still haven't gone over my MFP calories. I'm very dedicated to getting rid of this baby weight.

I haven't heard anything yet.
Weird. Val and I both got emails with a course confirmations. I got a call also but that's not typical and it was kind of a mixup and that's why she had to call me to check. Let me know if you hear!

DH went and picked up these super yummy chicken/cheese burgers for dinner and I was so thankful since otherwise we would have ended up at subway or something.
But I of course washed them down with a bunch of Doritos.
I'm also in bed, going to read and hopefully get a full 8 hours!
Today was another PT success for C! He even pooped on the potty twice. We should probably put him in underwear soon, huh?
Also insurance approved P's genetic testing. I'm astounded--we were told our insurance company almost always denies it. And even better news: they have enough blood left from his hematology work up that he doesn't even have to get any more drawn!

We're supposed to celebrate H's birthday tonight. He shot down my suggestion of going to see Straight Outta Compton. The kids would be with us, so obviously that's a no-go. But the thread on ML has me all excited for some Ice Cube lol.
I had 2 packages of pants (2 pairs each) coming from American Eagle, both shipped the same day and travelling together. One was in my mailbox today, the other was still 'tendered to USPS'. I'm 95% sure the mail lady had both, shoved 1 in my mailbox and then was too lazy to get out of her car and put the other one on the doorstep. It better be there tomorrow, that one has my flares.
ETA: Actually, they both say delivered. WHERE ARE MY FUCKING PANTS LADY. I want my flares.
I just realized that I booked our flight home this weekend during the one hour of the day when Jack tends to scream like he is being shot. I am tempted to call and pay major money to switch times.
I wish we lived closer to my family. I want a lazy weekend but H wants to get a bunch of yard stuff done. If my parents lived here I could drop DD off at their place and lay on the couch all day.
I was all excited for taco salad for dinner tonight but it was kinda blah and now I feel gross.
Thanks to this thread I'm watching the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders! I enjoy this show too much. I couldn't imagine dancing, or really doing just about anything, while being watched on that huge HGTV stadium screen.

Looking at my wedding pictures for the wedding photo thread made me realize how young we looked when we got married. Then I looked at our trash the dress pictures and realized that we have some super hot pictures from that shoot. After that, I reminisced about being young and cute. Now I'm researching anti-wrinkle creams. Soon I'll practice shaking my cane and yelling "get off my lawn!"

I am put and about in Chicago. I am wearing my LE dress if you see me. Lol. We met some Irish guys at a bar on division and I asked if they knew Colin Farrell. They did not. I may be drunk. Lmao.
