Happy Mother's Day.

I'm awake with DD while he is asleep. The day isn't starting with promise. It is supposed to be nice out though so I will be spending the day outside so she can burn some energy. I saw my mom yesterday so I can relax today. He said something yesterday about going to see his mom today, but I think I'll just let them go alone.

Got woke up at 6:45, tried to sleep on the couch while DS watched a movie but that turned into me being his personal jungle gym. DH got up, got his workout in & now has gone out to work in the garden for a bit. Hmmmmm seems like our typical Sunday morning to me!

Happy Mother's Day y'all!!

Happy Mother's Day to everyone! If your day didn't start out well, I hope it gets better.

DD slept until 7:30--unheard of! H made me breakfast and got me a chai. We will probably clean and go for a walk later.

Good morning, ladies and a Happy Mother's Day to you all!

DS woke up at like 6am and Dh got up with him which was nice. Then he fell back asleep until just a few minutes ago. Him and DH are snuggling while I have coffee out in the living room...its peaceful actually!

Our plan today is to go out for brunch and then to the zoo. It looks beautiful outside!

@MrsButt‌ I love Target.

I'm getting ready to go pick up DD from her dad's house. Since it's not our usual switch day, I'm really excited to get an extra day with her! Happy Mother's Day to everyone

Dh went out last night, and came home and treated me to a marathon that lasted until 2:00am. Wonderful, much needed, no complaints. THEN....ds was up from 2:00-5:00, at which point I stopped trying and took him down to sleep on the couch.

So, other than my 2 hrs of sleep, my day is great so far. Breakfast, beautiful gift and cards, pedicure now, then maybe some laundry, lol

E sttn so that was an awesome surprise! DH has off today because it snowed and I have asked him to get up 3 times and now he is pissy. Awesome.

My breakfast. Not CFA. But it was slammin nonetheless

I was up all night sucking boogers out of DS's nose. Poor baby freaked out a little when he couldn't breathe through his nose.
I think it's allergies. We're all stuffy-nosed here. 

LuckyDad

Cooking breakfast while DS watches tv and DW snoozes.

@justAphase‌ got my blow up pool for mothers day! Woo!

My mama felt sick this morning so I'm not making her her fancy dinner (and by fancy I mean I'm making real food that didn't come out of a bag mostly premade) until tomorrow...
I feel so bad for her. No mom deserves to be sick on Mother's Day.

Happy mother's day to all you ladies

Also, DH got me a bb pistol. 
Last night he said, "I can't even hump you for Mother's Day!"
I was all like, "Oh... that's too bad... darn."

DD got up at 5:30 this morning. Luckily DH dealt with her this morning, so I did fall back to sleep until 8. We decided against going out for breakfast, so DH brought breakfast back for us. I think we will take Reese for a walk on the boardwalk after her nap. It is gorgeous out!

Just sneezed & peed on myself a little....the Mother's day gift that keeps on giving ;o)

The day has started well.  I woke up at 7:00, took my allergy meds that I forgot to take last night, and went to sleep again until 9:00.  When I got up, DH went to get donuts for us and DD and I cuddled on the couch.  I am still in my nightgown.  I got some packing done (we aren't doing the big move until next month, but I am packing things that can go on shelves and in closets to lighten the load and reduce the number of boxes we will need.)  Nap will happen soon, and I may join in ;-)

After nap, we are going to run errands.  I want to take some boxes to Goodwiill, some boxes to the new house to get them out of the way, stop by Kohls for some things for the house, and then the grocery store.  That honestly sounds like a great day to me.  I'm easy to please. I might ask him to pick up my favorite Chinese food for dinner.  I really don't want to go out in the crowds at a restaurant.

Day started off nice but has been a bit derailed. DH made pancakes, then we brought some mimosas out into the deck while DS played with his water table.

Everything was going great until DH went into the basement and discovered like an inch of water over a good chunk of the basement floor. I was pretty freaked because the last thing we need is a major house problem right now. FIL came over and determined some hose had disconnected from the water softener. So at least it's nothing major. Sadly, now DH had to run out for a wet vac and there goes our leisurely afternoon.

Why is Mothers Day a Sunday? Too much to be done on a Sunday. Laundry, lunches, yuck.

Mothers Day should be on a Friday night so we can all go get sloppy drunk and have the next day to sleep in and recover.

BluepointToasted

That's actually a wonderful idea!

DH slept in until 12:30 and not only has not acknowledged that it's Mother's Day, he yelled at me within 5 minutes of him getting up about something that wasn't my fault because he takes out his stress on me. Always. I know he's verbally abusive but I don't know what I'm supposed to do. It's just not clear-cut...if I leave, what's my reason for leaving? That he yells? Just seems weak but I'm miserable.

Tl;dr DH is a dick and my Mother's Day sucks ass

Our ac is working again! Praying it keeps on running until the part that needs to be replaced is in tomorrow.

I am so sorry.

Leaving someone who is verbally abusive is not weak IMO. It is refusing to allow someone to treat you poorly. That takes a lot of strength I think. I won't pretend to know how you are feeling or tell you what to do, but I hope you can get some help and find some happiness.

Had a blast at the park. Taught her how to swing! The Mexican place gave all the moms a rose so I got a flower. Now we are going to hit up Target and Kohl's

Thank you, I really appreciate this. I have no one to talk to IRL...sorry to be a Debbie Downer. I do hope everyone has a great Mother's Day!

No reason to apologize. Maybe you could talk to a counselor? It might help you. Best wishes to you.

We walked three miles. Stopped at DQ to give DD her first taste of ice cream. She basically hated it. Glad we only got the baby sized one.

I've got some cleaning/organizing to do when DD is up from her nap.

DS slept from 7:30-5:30am then back down till 8, THEN just got up from a 2+hour nap! Glorious. I think it's because he's teething but whatever, I'll take it. Plus my h made a great brunch and the ILs came over to entertain O. Good day!

I would prefer a Saturday Mother's Day instead of Friday.

Same.

So now that my husband is done golfing and just back in time to eat, he decided now he needs to nap!! Thankfully DD keeps screaming at him that it's not nap time and to get up!!

Did you tell him it's Mother's Day today?

Yeah, wtf? Talk about someone who deserves appreciation on Mother's Day. He's golfing/napping today while you've been puking your guts out?! No.

Also, so sorry @martha919. I wish everyone here could feel respected and appreciated today and everyday because I know we all deserve it.

Ds always woke up from his naps, spent some alone time in his crib talking to himself, and then got up happy. Lately? Up on the wrong side of the bed and it takes like half an hour to get him out of his funk. What the heck is this all about?

DS let H and I both sleep in. H is going to get us breakfast/lunch and the rest of the will consist of sittibg around watching Doctor Who. I am trying to love Matt Smith but David Tennant broke my heart and I dont think Im ready to love a new Doctor.

If you really liked Tennant, it takes a while to adjust to Smith IMO. I didn't like him until the end of his first season. But then it gets really good.

((Hugs)) @pobrecita‌ that is a tough decision.

While I wasn't adopted my mom left and then after a year or so stopped coming around. When I was 18 we reconnected because like you I always wondered. We didn't stay in touch, but I feel better knowing I tried. /end useless anecdote.

Getting so fucking pumped for good Mexican food and margs. Plus, free dessert for moms. We have to drive an hour to get there so I'm hoping there is not a huge wait because we are leaving E with my friend and he is still rejecting bottles, so he will be hungry by the time we get back.
