Who's exhausted because a toddler wouldn't let them sleep and they were up talking numbers last night?

Me!

mommadozer

Just caught up with the late night ladies board and participated in sugah's clicks poll. Bummed I missed it last night. In bed by 8pm on a Friday night! Ugh, I hate having a cold.

Happy Saturday!

foxslaw

I have to go back to Austin today & I don't want to!!!!!!

jennjilljo

I was hoping to escape restlessness for a few more wells but no such luck. A cousin tried calling me several times last night after 11 pm even though I've told her not to call after 9 several times, DH snored all night, I couldn't sleep and my mom got in touch with me because she spent 24 hours looking for my brother only to get a call from the local jail. No sleep thanks to the weird dreams that came from all of that. DS woke up an hour early starving because he had been boycotting dinner. Rough night but hopefully I can get some class work done today.

jennjilljo

@mommadozer‌ I was in bed by 8 too but it didn't do me any good.

Ugh. Rough night! Who calls after 11!?!?!?

Happy Saturday, I'm working for a few hrs, then taking a page out if Chickens book to actually do some Saturday cleaning. Last nights bumping was awesome... My F15 heart just gets bigger and bigger.

People who think I give a shit how or when they decide to announce their baby's sex. I think she wanted me to help her plan a gender a reveal or give her ideas for a cute way to do it on fb or something. Idk she was upset that no one reacted when it she didn't post until after midnight.

lizjennings81

I missed last night's fun because my husband and I were too busy laughing over Rock N' Roll Baby Lullaby Ensemble's Totally 80s collection. We previewed all six albums and decided we'd get most of them.

I can't tell if it's 80s nostalgia or impending parenthood at work.

ambz06060

I'm in bed by 8 pm every night!!

I'm going to my SIL's parents house a couple hours away to bring them freezer meals. Her mom is on her 4th time with cancer, and they are out of options. So her dad can't cook well, trying to take care of her, so we are bringing meals. I know it's hard for my SIL. She isn't close with her mom, but I still don't know what to say to her, because she won't talk about it. I figured things like this show her that I am here for her.

Then if I'm back in time, Halloween party.

chicagojackie

DD woke up a bit early and her room smelled funny--pull up full of diarrhea, yuck. She was in good spirits and loved having a bath! Normally I could give her a sippy of milk and then she'd sleep in... Not in the cards today!!

We had our cereal and she's cuddling me now watching Sesame Street. It's the Jimmy Fallon wild nature survivor guy one, lol.

Good morning viper moms!!

erobbins09

Good morning ladies! Working as always today but I'm excited because next week I'm going to IL for my cousins wedding shower! The wedding is in January in New York so I'm a no-go on that. So I'm hoping today and next week goes by quickly so I can see her! She's an amazing girl and my idiot uncle (her "sperm donor") caused her to not really be a part of our big close family.. But she and I have gotten to be really close over the past 5 years.. So I'm going to for her but to represent that there are people on her loser dad's side who really do care about her!

Oh, and I may have to reward my working on Saturday by getting a salted caramel hot chocolate at Dunkin Donuts

mommadozer

@jennjilljoite‌ oh my, your night sounds awful. ugh, no fun.

I'm kinda glad that we don't have a land line at our house. I would always freak out when the phone would ring late or in the middle of the night.

iPhones let you set a do not disturb setting where you get no notifications. It is a blessing. DH loves to participate in group texts and some of his friends would text late into the night keeping us up. I threatened to throw his phone down to the first floor if he did not use do not use that function. Best decision ever!

DBJackson25

@jennjilljoite‌ that doesn't sound like any fun. I'm sorry that your night was awful. Hopefully you'll be able to squeeze a nap in. We have a house phone for emergency only and no one ever calls it. If they do I know it's not with good news.
Today I have to go to a bridal shower I really don't wanna go to and I'll watch DH clean the nursery out because I am not supposed to do much. Other than that here's to hoping for a relaxing weekend!

baileylove22

Happy Saturday! Football all day! And now maybe the salted caramel hot chocolate that was mentioned above. Have a great day everyone!

ckimberley14

Love tit for the bath and snuggles, @chicagojackie! The girls let me sleep in until 7:20 after not going down for the night until about 9:15 last night. I'll take it!

@foxslaw Drive safely! Sorry you have to go back.

@erobbins09 Gosh that drink sounds amazing. I think I'll make myself some hot cocoa this morning.

@jennjilljoite Sorry about your night. Some people really have no common sense/consideration for others. Hope DS lets you have a good nap today.

Have a great Saturday, everyone!

boxerrrmama85

Good morning ladies-- work is really
Interfering with my bumping lately! My husband put together all of baby P.'s furniture last night! Having a crib in our house is still surreal!
Sounds like sleep is becoming a distant memory for many of us. My husband decided to stay after work have beers with the guys. I woke up needing to pee and realized that he wasn't home nearly an hour and a half after he should have been-- so I instantly went into panic mode. When he finally got home 3:00am (!!!!!!) I was wide awake and giving him a piece of my pregnant mind! As I was about to fall asleep baby P decided that it was gymnastics time and was doing all
sorts of flips and turns-- and Ofcourse the dogs thought that 7:30 would be a fine time to demand to go outside... Ugh-- here is to a better night tonight!

ETA: baby gymnastics are always welcome and I don't mind being kept
up because of that

BeckyP005

I asked MH which crib bedding does he like. So from my post last week I'm having such a hard time on deciding. He told me he likes the coral and aqua..many times. I loved it too but just realized I like the pink/sage green tiny bit better. He really wants his choice so I guess I'm done. I will need all your decorating skills soon! Oh but the pink is soo pretty! I've got issues.. Well not all of the swatches on the pink will show up since most was on the bumper.

My 2 year old wouldn't let me sleep last night either. Kept asking for his big boy bed which we went to look at yesterday but didn't buy because we needed a truck.

lizzybean

@jennjilljoite that is crazy her calling so late!! Grrr I would've been so pissed!

@ckimberley14 I was thinking about you last night, wondering what time the girls got to bed. I hate when they have late bedtimes and then wake up at the same damn time!!!

Ella got up at 7:35, which actually felt like a sleep-in. Sigh that's pathetic.

DH didn't get home until after 11:30 last night, then went back to work at 8:30 this morning. Sad

All I can say is he BETTER be home by 2:30 because we are going to Magic Kingdom for Ella's haircut. If he is late he will really be in the doghouse....

You can't go wrong with either, so I think it's great that you are letting him make the final decision.  We do a lot of that in our house. I get to narrow things down to a few options and then he gets to pick the final.  That way he gets to feel involved.  The coral is AWESOME, and if you want to pull in the softer coral in the bedskirt, that would work too!

foxslaw

Yay! @krendel‌ sounds like he's more than making up for it.

I hope your day is as amazing as you are! @ckimberley14‌

@lizzybean‌ haircut at magic kingdom? Whaaat?

BeckyP005

@foxslaw I wonder how much that costs? Haahaa. E will be in heaven though I'm sure.

lizzybean

@foxslaw yes! They have a barbershop inside Magic Kingdom that does a special little 'first haircut' package! I am really looking forward to it and hoping Ella does okay with it..

Haha, thanks! Yeah it's pretty sad that any time after 6:30 is considered sleeping in for us now. I'm seriously dreading Daylight Savings! Sorry DH was home so late and then had to go back so early. I hope for his sake he's on time for Ella's haircut! Have fun!

@lizzybean I've been to magic kingdom like 50 times and never knew you could get your hair cut there.

I never would have known either! I have made some friends here that work for Disney and have given me all of these interesting, lesser-known tidbits.

@foxslaw sorry you have to go back to Austin. Have a safe trip. @jennjilljoite‌ wow what a crazy night! Is your brother ok? DH went out fishing and mudding with some friends. Woke up at 2am to him stomping the mud off his boots in the hallway! I was so mad. He's cleaning it up and making me breakfast now.

I hope he's making you a huuuuge yummy breakfast! That would have made me mad, too! What happened to your avatar? I noticed it went generic last night.

jennjilljo

@krendel‌ he's fine. He got drunk and wandered town (again). This time he had his gun on him so he's required to see a mental health professional and get evaluated. Hell finally get his PTSD diagnosed and treated.

MaryS001

Well, halfway home from super fast trip to see my brother for his bday. I'm a little sad, since I rarely get to see them more than once a year and it was such a flash, but I'm also looking forward to sleeping in my own bed and seeing my boys (not in that order).

And in other news, I'm gonna pick up Publix subs for me and DH on my way home!! The triangle's first one just opened in Cary!! Mmmmm Publix subs...

I didn't know you were in NC as well.  I've never had a Publix sub before.  Maybe I should go check it out.  What do you recommend?  I'm obsessed with BLTs and tuna subs, but have been laying off the tuna since getting pregnant.

Is 8 hours too far for me to drive for the twins' first haircuts?  This would be amazing!

I think I know where DH is picking up lunch now  Chicken salad sub sounds deeeeelicious.

Absolutely not! By that time Ella will be like, 4 years old (what!!?!) and could show all the little ones the ropes of Disney!

I want to strangle my husband today. EVERY. GODDAMN. THING. is annoying the shit out of me. I think this girl needs to go get a mani pedi and 2 bagels from panera and enjoy a morning alone.

OMG, do not disturb is my FAVORITE. I've lived three timezones behind my parents for over 16 years now, and they still don't quiiiiiite understand how the conversion works, so I get lots of texts from my mom right at 6am or 5:30am (my alarm is set for 6:30am, so a 6am surprise wakeup is THE WORST). Not replying to them till I've woken up on my own terms... much better for everyone!

Woohoo!!! And we have a friend that gives us free hoppers, so it would be relatively inexpensive for all of us!  It's a date!

MaryS001

@DronkeyGal‌ yup, Durham! And everything is good, Publix-sub-wise!!! DH likes the buffalo chicken sub, I'm kind of a plain Jane and usually do the turkey and cheese, but sometimes I go for an Italian. You seriously can't go wrong. It's the one thing I miss most about Florida!!

mommaa1615

Good Morning! ! I have to go get Halloween candy before it runs out but dont trust myself with it (even before pregnant) ">

Oem617

Morning ladies! DS woke up screaming at 5am. It's a little early for him, as he usually sleeps till 5:30. Yes I know you are all super jealous of my early riser. Anyway, not sure where the screaming comes into play. He wakes up miserable. Hey kid maybe if you slept longer, you wouldn't be so miserable.

I am working some OverTIme today for extra cash. DH will have DS all day.

@lizzybean Can't wait to see Ella's new hair!

Baby is the size of a grapefruit today. A alien sized, hybrid grapefruit, almost 12" in size.

Oh and I had to try and break into my own bakery today. Our delivery guy, sent his nephew to do our deliveries this am. He dropped our gate super fast without guiding it down manually and it came off the wheel. I tried to squeeze under the gate and wiggle my way in to grab the basement key to get a ladder but my belly is too big. So I push a tall fliplid trash can over and had one of my employees spot me and fed the chain back onto the wheel. Not the safest, but it worked. I'm gonna put the spare basement key back on my keychain. Ugh silly morning.
