How are you all doing this fine morning? DD and I watched the sunrise together. It was pretty, but need more coffee.
We're putting an offer on a house today and I really really hope they take it. I have butterflies like a school girl. I want to be done with this house business and move on to the next stage - finishing packing and looking for a job in the new town.
DH and I are meeting with my friend who's a lawyer to make out our will (whomp whomp) but then we're have a date night at a hibachi place for his birthday!
I am taking DS1 to the Lego Movie. It will be the first time we have been on an outing alone together since DS2 was born. I am really looking forward to it.
Woke up, ran out for coffee, and came home and made toast and eggs for the fam. Ds is splashing away in the tub now, then need to run to the store because my FIL ( who we haven't seen in a year) will be over for lunch. Then hair appt, stopping by a public hearing on a charter school, drop off ds, and the ball tonight! Oh, and DSS is coming over during this, but dh will pick him up. Busy Saturday!
Going to a baby/toddler clothing and gear exchange at a friend's house later. DH is home sick with a "really bad cold" so it will be nice to escape the house and his constant symptom updates. And leave DD with him. Ha.
Good morning! E had a great birthday. She loved all her presents. My parents both came and neither of them were assholes! It was a nice change from my week full of fail.
On the other hand E slept like shit last night, and I had to get up with her several times. Then in an amazing turn of events around 6am, she woke up for the 553657325 time, and DH actually got up with her and let me sleep in! Sadly, sleeping in meant 730, but it's better than 6 so I'll take it.

Watching Firefly after the Nathan Fillion fangirling that went on last night. Waiting for H to come home so I can throw Gus at him for the weekend and take all the naps.
I want to start rewatching it too. I love that show.

Drinking coffee and sitting on the coach with DD. I've been cleaning, doing laundry and got the grocery list ready. Need to shower soon so I can run out to the store for groceries and wine. Can't forget the wine.
DH let me sleep in this morning. I slept until almost 10am! That's late for me!
A coworker texted me last night asking if I wanted today off...sure why not. So I have today off. The plan is for DH and I to finally get around to cleaning out the spare room so we can turn it into a playroom/guest room.
We're thinking of getting one of those futon/bunk bed sets for the room, which can be used by any overnight guests for now and then when baby #2 comes (god willing of course!), we can move DS to the bunkbed in that room and give DS' s crib to the baby. That's the plan at least.
Going to college hockey today, if I ever get off my ass and get ready. As it is I'm stuffing my face with pretzels. I finished my breakfast about ten seconds ago but this counts as elevensies, right?
I have been laying quietly in bed for about a half hour because I woke up before the kiddo Ah me time in the morning!
I am glad she slept in because we have a birthday party to go to during nap time.
DH had some safety meeting to go to and likely won't be going to the party. We are headed over to my parent's this afternoon so I can work on birthday party stuff and meet my brother's new friend/potential girlfriend
Ugh I fucking hate this shit. I'm sick of living in a tiny ass house...it feels like I'm basically shuffling shit from one room to another and I'm not accomplishing a damn thing. Its like i have no clue where to sstart with this room bc I have nowhere to put anything!!
DH is outside god knows where...his fucking ADD is ridiculous. He starts a million things all at once and finishes nothing.
I slept until 10:30 (!!!), and am now lounging with coffee because my husband took DD to a local museum. I am going to work out in a minute. I think. Maybe. I really should.
All this relaxation is in preparation for DH being out of town for 6 days starting tomorrow. Ugh. I do not like solo parenting.
Our science center is free the first Saturday of every month for 4 and unders so long as you get there by 9:30, so we did that this morning. Plus, ate donuts, so best day ever! Can't wait until nap time so I can lay on the couch and read Reddit.
DS is 1DAF

Ugh I need to get my butt off the couch and start getting ready to go to that party. I forgot to buy a card to put the stickers I bought in so I am going to have DD make one.
We're going to the zoo with some friends once it opens. I need to figure out something to do for later, because it's D&D night at my house, which means Zoe and I can't go out in the living room.
@scarlettpanda glad the lesson went better this time! I'm calling it a win too and seems like it will keep getting better
Damn it. I was going to have DD paint the card for her friend and then I went and got her dressed in her party clothes before painting. Now I need a new plan.
DS let me sleep and extra 10 minutes this morning. My life is glamorous. Went to the gym and then took DS to swim class. He totally rocked! Face in the water and all! So proud. Now he is outside riding his bike in the freezing cold with DH for a couple minutes while I sit in peace. Probably going grocery shopping and to Target later. Gotta come up with some lunch soon. Need something yummy, filling, cheap, and good for me.
@bearsbearsbears I am impressed that B still takes two naps. I am lucky if she get one nap in. She is trying to drop the nap but I am fighting it hard!

I need to get dinner in the crock pot so we don't have to worry about it later, but I haven't had enough coffee.

We will have to go to the store later as I'm sure we will be snowed in tomorrow.
I would like to go to target to get some duplo Legos for e.
Not much else but cleaning and hanging with DH & girls.

Lazy morning so far. LO is hanging out in bed with us while DH watches 24 on Netflix. Coffee is good.
ETA: hit post too fast.
