Thursday Randoms

Since we're closed on Fridays during the summer, today is my Friday!

We leave tomorrow morning for "vacation" with my H's family. (ILs, SIL and her H, and their two kids.) We rented a two bedroom condo. For 11 people. Please send ALL the wine. Hard liquor, too.

dbe100408 wow, are there bunkbeds in one of the bedrooms/cram all the kids in one room?? Going anywhere fun?

[dbe100408]

There are 6 beds. (1 king, 2 queens, 2 queen pullout couches, and a full Murphy bed). Not sure where everyone is sleeping yet, because these people hate planning. 😩 We're going to Branson, so not particularly fun, lol.

I have great news!! Annabelle is potty trained! I am so happy and proud of her. We used every bribe in the book, with no success. She had such a huge fear of going, due to all the infections and she associated the pain of holding her pee with going. We would have her sit on the potty and there would be so many tears, it was always an ordeal.

Last week daycare asked if we wanted to send her in undies, so we did. She had two accidents at daycare on Monday, then came home and peed and pooped on the potty! She had no accidents yesterday!!!! (Still in PullUps to sleep)

I am thrilled. FINALLY

Next step is we will get an apt with her urologist and see about getting her off the antibiotics.

Off to Target to buy some forgotten essentials, like shower rods and curtains, lol. Forgot to put them on the "do not convey" list on the old house so had to leave them behind.

Starting to find out other kids in A's class. I know one of the girls from the neighborhood and thought she was going into 1st grade because she's 14 months older than A. Nope, going to be in the same class.

I really want to send H on time but every time I see a kid over a year older than my May baby I get nervous to send him with his July birthday.

That's crazy! Mostly bc I want my kids in school asap. Lol! Like if we are still here (heaven forbid) when V turns 4 she misses the cut off for preK by ONE DAY. They have to be 4 by Sep 1 and her bday is Sep 2 so she'll have to wait a whole year. It will probably similar wherever we go and I think it sucks. Lol.

I know! It'd take a lot for me to hold H back lol, like I'd probably send him and have him do it twice if it didn't work out instead of holding him back. His due date was actually the cut off so I'm glad he wasn't late like A was!

Loco Coco I think it's October 1st in NJ. My SIL is holding back my niece who turns 5 on Sept 20.

Hope your time away is fun, dbe100408!

Nothing too exciting here. We went to the playground earlier and it was hot/humid as balls and the library doesn't open until 1 so then we got drinks at a local coffee shop. I introduced the kids to foosball and they loved it!

MIL took my 'twins' to the zoo today. They were so excited to match. I'm sure they will be crabby tonight from so much activity. Good thing I'm going to ride my horse and H is watching the boys tonight! Lol

[blane12]

She is so cute Loco Coco!

Sept 1 here too poor sully is sept 4 and is so ready

M is 6/30 and his preschool teachers say it is much easier to repeat a year of preschool than to try to convince kindergarten to let them repeat and they advise extra preschool over kindergarten
We might do that with m but have until January to decide
