I cried about losing one of DD's headbands. It was one I ordered from swizz and she wore it coming home from the hospital. It fell off Monday at the chiropractor's office and as I was driving away I realized it, but thought, no big deal, we will be back Wednesday and I will get it then. Well they didn't have it. I cried in the car afterward. I am usually not sentimental about things, but I was legit crying about this headband.
I went to ON before picking up DS and tried on the whole store. I cannot get their button downs to look good on me, ever. I liked their knockoff Zella leggings but they were so thin that I left them behind. Maybe in the spring.
I did get a sweater and plaid pants though! Debating whether I can get away with it on casual Friday (business casual).

I have a quiet house and nothing to do! H is working late, DD went down easily, and I'm mostly caught up on work and other random crap. Laying on the couch with a bag of BBQ chips while baby 2 is having a dance party.
Today was a really good day. DD had a great pedi appt, she's been latching well, we got her newborn pics ordered, DH gave me s cute push present, and I am in bed about to go to bed early while he takes the first shift.
Tomorrow I plan to get to the nursing support group, pick out/order birth announcements, and I would love to go to old navy and buy some shirts that fit my huge nursing boobs.

I like my kid a lot better when we are out and about. He was such a delight today when we were at library story time, the doctors, and shopping. He waves and smiles, blows kisses, and chats to everyone and anyone. He loves people watching and was so patient while I was shopping. He was just a delight! Then we get home and he's a whiny, clingy, crying mess. Why, oh why? I must be boring to him or something.
This morning when I was walking Dd to daycare, a neighbor yelled across the street " are you expecting?". I'm only 9 weeks and I really think I just look bloated. I can't believe she had the balls to ask me. We are friends but not good friends ( never been inside each other's houses or anything). Omg
If you've retiled a bathroom - does it stink for a while afterwards? I'm trying to figure out if the tile/grout/sealant is off gassing or if the toilet didn't get placed correctly. It is...foul.
As soon as DH gets home from work I am leaving for Disneyland. My bff and her sister flew in toLA and bff's mom will be meeting us there. We will stay in a hotel tonight and spend tomorrow at D-land. DH is taking the day off to handle kid duties and I am excited to have a day away. I'm packed and ready to go so DH needs to hurry home. Also, I'm stopping at Cafe Rio on the way and I am really excited about the sweet pork salad. Yum!
Hugs, we're in the same boat with our youngest. My fx that both grow out if it. What do they have you guys on? Right now we're doing a preventative steroid (Flovent) twice a day, four puffs total, and the singular granules.
Hugs! How old is he? My DS1 was diagnosed at 2 and now at 4.5 is much healthier and improving. He still has a hard time with colds and coughs but he now swims and plays sports mostly without issue.
@sessalee, DH is so dumbfounded by the fact that I just don't like sex right now. TTC took the fun out of it for me, then pregnancy hormones and now postpartum. I do it, but it's just not fun and he doesn't get it. At all.
In line at Target today C started to loudly sing Wheels on the Bus. A few other customers (adults) joined in. It was like being in a scene from a musical. Until the woman two lines over changed our usual order and my kid started yelling, " No, Lady! No! Swish, swish, swish is next! Lady, it's swish, swish, swish!"

Today sucked. DD seemed super 'off' this morning at gymnastics (which, as a result of this and other factors, also sucked) and was super cranky all morning so I gave her Motrin before her nap and she slept 3 hours!!! I hope she isn't getting sick. Meanwhile, DS is teething I think. And he doesn't seem to be taking to teething as well as his sister did. So Tylenol every 4 hours for him. Then DH came home cranky because he had a shit day at work.
My day was ok but everyone around me being unhappy is exhausting.

Yeah my H is also perplexed. We've had 'plenty' of sex since she was born, 50% of it I hated and 50% was just meh, but H never understood at all. I guess there's no real way for them to relate. Tonight he did a really good job of building it up, helping me enjoy it, and not asking for it at 10:30 when it's bedtime. That helped.
I've been feeling really extra sensitive lately and I don't know if it's pregnancy hormones or what, but I don't like it. I keep dwelling on little things that really don't matter. H asked me what was wrong tonight and I couldn't really articulate it. Then I started watching more Parenthood and have been a crying puddle. (This is normal outside of pregnancy for me, but still.)
DH is in Canada with no cell signal and limited internet. He emailed me late last night and thinks that today is their last day of hunting and they'll start heading home Thursday morning. That will mean he'll be home late Friday night!!!! The original plan was to hunt Thursday morning and then leave mid-day Thursday which would've put him home Saturday.
Guess who's on complete house and toddler duty this weekend??? Hint, it's not me!
Honestly DD is pretty easy and has been great. No complaints about her. But putting out foster down, DD being finished nursing and me not feel well and having to do all household duties I'm just ready for him to be home. Plus I kind of like the guy and I miss him.
I resorted to taking away her homework and books. I hated to do it but she doesn't respond to anything else. She freaks out, and cries and says, "but no mom, not that, I have to LEARN!!"
Moty. I felt horrible
I then tried to make myself feel better By buying $100 of lularoe. Wth has gotten into me. I never use to spend money on clothes. It's weird liking clothes again.
We had C's 3 year well check today and everything is in order. He is 36 lbs and 38" tall which means he gained 3.5 pounds and 4 inches in the last year.
I'm a pumpkin whore. In the past 24 hours I have had pumpkin: cider, tea, yogurt, and ice cream. I also wore leggings to work everyday this week. I love fall.
msniq is doing daycare pickup in preparation for my Vegas work trip (it's an uphill bike ride with V in the trailer, so a serious workout). I'm trying to find some chores to do until she gets here.
Hoping for an early bedtime after a longer morning than usual.
I'm hoping for a better night tonight than last night. DD woke up every hour from 7pm when we started putting her to bed until 3am when I gave up and brought her into our bed with us. I'm so exhausted. She napped this afternoon for almost 2 hours so fingers crossed!
She's done pretty well the last couple weeks and STTN on Thursday, now this.
I'm kind of surprised DH hasn't tried to have sex yet, but I'm OK with it. I would go along if he initiated, because its been so long (didn't do anything the last month and a half of pregnancy either). But he hasn't so I'm keeping quiet.
I'm starting to regret getting mirena. I'm going on 2+ weeks of bleeding and I'm so over it. When does it stop? Googling makes it sound like no time soon.
Awww that's so kind of you to offer swizz! I was going to order a few anyway, now that I'm realizing white and pink are what goes with her wardrobe so I need more of those. Since I love sharing pics of my kids, I'll share this one of her wearing it in the hospital.
