TGIF!!!

[wineandcheese]

Any fun plans this weekend???

I'm currently waiting for H to get out of the shower and dressed so we can start our early morning adventure. I'm getting my brows done at 11am at Ulta today. They need to be done so bad. Plus I need a new face powder, foundation and primer. I ran out of my favorite everyday foundation stick so I need to pick that up since it's on sale.

Saturday evening we are going to a friend's house.

[estrellita]

I have a work party tomorrow and it's a 3 day weekend! Yay!

[amaranth]

Can't think of any specific plans. We have some gift cards from Christmas so maybe we'll go out to dinner.

wineandcheese I'd be curious to see a photo of all your makeup. It sounds like you have a lot!

[luv2rn4fun]

I am sleep training this weekend and a bundle of nerves. I hate this but also know he can self soothe and is using me as a pacifier all night. I hate his 5 wakeups and being the only one to get him back to sleep more. Still going to feed 2x but that will be so much better than our average night.

Other than that, DH needs to get my car smog checked and figure out our leak. He slowed it down but there is still water coming in. Also, C was up a lot last night and is coughing again...hoping he isn't getting sick again. He has been sick on and off for almost a month.

[bk1]

luv2rn4fun (I know you know this) You've got this girl! Sleeping training sucks for sure but you know in the long run it will be SO much better for you and L! 


We are suppose to have an ice storm heading this way. Schools have been shut down and nothing has even started coming down yet. DH and I are using it as a no excuse weekend to clean/organize/declutter around the house. Wish us luck!

[amaranth]

luv2rn4fun we've been half heartedly sleep training for a month. I feel your pain. *hugs*. We're potty training this weekend so I'll just join your misery train..lol

[luv2rn4fun]

bk1 amaranth- Thanks! I was hoping to so it while swaddled since he does better that way but he just tried breaking out of it now to get his hands 😔 we are on day 3 for naps and unswaddled was a nightmare of his reflex waking him up. I feel bad because he is still so young but he's up way too much and all his sleep needs are on me, even when DH is not working and I am done.

amaranth- potty training is coming out way soon too. Good luck this weekend!!

Four day weekend!

I need to clean the house before my mom comes over this evening. I also have a tattoo session today, which I'm excited and nervous about. I'm going to H's artist for the first time, so it'll be different from the other work I've had done recently.

No other plans for the next few days. We're going to start re-crate training Gus tonight, so we're expecting to not get much sleep this weekend. He actually slept through the night last night for the first time in over a week, but we still time for him to go back to sleeping in a crate instead of in the bed.

[pooh8402]

It's Friday the 13th, it's a full moon, and I'm working all weekend. Shoot. Me. Now.

[wineandcheese]

amaranth I do have a lot 😉 A lot more then H would like me to have or wear. I just bought some more too, shhh don't tell H lol.

katespade can't wait to see pictures of the new ink!

pooh8402 sending lots of hugs! I'm glad I'm not working.

[rockinrobyn]

Thank goodness for Friday!!!!

We are going bowing with another couple tonight and I plan to drink. Work has been a nightmare this week with the new changes.

The rest of the weekend I plan on relaxing on the couch and maybe cleaning out my closet. A lot of my clothes no longer fit because I have lost so much weight after L was born and I figure if I get rid of my too big clothes I will have to keep it off.

[katespade]

pooh8402 - Yikes! At least the craziness will make the time go by quickly?

[bk1]

katespade What are you getting? Why are you going to your H's artist?

luv2rn4fun amaranth Ugh I don't want to think about potty training. I have no idea where to start. DH is ready to try but I don't think G is ready yet. Good luck!

[MrsMB]

Pooped after a great appointment this morning! I would love for my emails to slow down! ha!

Eta: it should have read, I am so pooped!!! Lol I WAS tired apparently

C will sometimes tell me he has to go or tells me after he has gone in his diaper. I put him on the toilet every night before bath and he pees. I am putting this off as long as possible though. L needs to be more manageable so I can give C my full attention so it's as easy on him as possible.

MrsMB- I totally thought you "pooped" after your appointment LOL. Hope the rest of your day goes ok!

[katespade]

bk1 - His artist specializes in black and grey realism, which is the style I want for this one. I'm getting a crown on my thigh, which will coordinate with the crown that H is getting done on his ribs next week. Mine will be more delicate/feminine and his will be more ornate/masculine.

[pooh8402]

luv2rn4fun, that's how I read it too!

So far so good. My director is really superstitious, so she's been flipping out all day. It would be funny if I wasn't in the middle of it all.

[katespade]

luv2rn4fun, pooh8402 - I read MrsMB's post the same way at first, too! lol.

[wineandcheese]

I had to read MrsMB's post twice lol.

rockinrobyn enjoy tonight! Congrats on the weight loss!

For the medical workers in the group:

[Blue Moon]

Warning - vent ahead.

Not a good day in the BlueMoon house. B has had a fever all week and just got diagnosed with pneumonia today. She is sleeping now but her breathing is worrying me enough that I'm keeping watch in her room. H is on his way home with a fever and chills so I wouldn't be surprised if he has it too. I want to be able to take care of him too but taking care of B all week has exhausted me. I'm also so scared I'm going to get it too and it'd be especially bad given that I'm 23 weeks pregnant. I know I should be sanitizing everything but I just have no energy to do so. Hopefully the medicine kicks in ASAP and actually works!

[katespade]

Blue Moon - I hope B and your H both feel better soon. Stay healthy!

Tomorrow is our hypnobirthing class. My anxiety has been getting worse despite therapy (probably thanks to hormones) so I'm hoping the tactics will help in general as well as on the "big day".

Other than that, I'd like to continue tidying and purging the house.

I need to remember to buy a rotary cutter because cutting squares of fabric with scissors is just not working for me.

[estrellita]

H gets the good husband award today. My department orders Chipotle every Friday. Well apparently they had a new guy doing the orders today because they majorly screwed up, including completely forgetting my order! I actually think someone else got it and it was mislabeled but that still means they forgot someone's! So H ran to Noodles and got me food since my plan was not going anywhere for lunch today. He's the best!

I also think we might turn Sat into a date night. I might look at movie times for Rogue One since we haven't seen it yet and see if we can see it after my work party. E is going to stay at ILs all night. Should be fun!

[amaranth]

@opal rotary cutters are life changing. I love mine so much.

So true. I can't cut straight with scissors to save my life.

[luv2rn4fun]

So many ((hugs)) and prayers Blue Moon. I really hope B and your DH get healthy soon and you don't catch it. And that you can get some rest.

[MrsMB]

No pooping...rest assured ladies

Blue Moon prayers that pneumonia leaves your house ASAP and you don't get it!!!

[Blue Moon]

Thanks all. H just tested positive for the flu as did MIL.

[pooh8402]

Oh boo Blue Moon! Praying everyone heals up soon!
