How's your Monday?

Mine has been pretty good so far. DS didn't cry during his bath for the first time this morning and has been very pleasant and easygoing. He's definitely getting better with the fussiness. We all went for a long walk this morning and then played outside for awhile since it's nice and will be too cold to go out soon. Right now DS is drinking a bottle and then it will be naptime for DD. I'm hoping to get a nap myself since I'm exhausted. DS is a good sleeper but it's still been 8 weeks straight of not getting a full night's sleep and it's starting to catch up to me.

How is your day going?

I was hoping to get cramps today as that has been my standard early-warning "pregnant" symptom all 3 pregnancies. But nothing. 

The DDs were really cute this afternoon and are starting to really play with each other, and it's adorable to watch. 

Unfortunately, the weather here is cold and rainy, so the lantern festival their preschool was supposed to have got cancelled. All the kids get a little lantern and walk around (with the parents) for like 20 minutes in the evening singing special songs. Honestly, I'd have to look up what it's for, but it's a German tradition, and DD1 and I were both really looking forward to it. I'm sad it got cancelled.

Meh. I've got the beginnings of a head cold and DH leaves on another business trip tomorrow. Yay.

Snow already?? I don't mind snow but before Thanksgiving it just seems wrong!

It's freezing today, I want to get back in bed. DS was up half the night again (2 weeks now, it sucks) and I had a shitty night at work. I'm nauseous, and exhausted. DS is moving to a big boy bed tonight in hopes of him sleeping in his bed and making it easier for us to cuddle him back to sleep there rather than in our bed. Today can be over anytime now.

I had my glucose test and 28 week check-up with my midwife this morning which was a treat with an almost-2 year old in tow. He did pretty well though. We came home and had lunch which really meant I made him a bowl of pasta that he did not touch  :P Now he is napping and I'm checking things off my to-do list. 

Thrills abound in my house today, clearly! 

I took M to my 3 hr glucose test and it was a lot of fun because they had toys in the OB office and she was a big distraction.  It was much better than when I just sat there when I was pregnant with her.  Unfortunately, I passed the 3 hour test but probably had undiagnosed g.d., which caused all kinds of issues for DS.  I have wondered if it was chasing M around the OB office that made me pass when I should have failed.  Keep it in mind if you suspect you might have g.d. and get another test.

DH has a man cold and thinks he's dying.  Background, he is the total stereotype of the sick man with a cold. 

This is me every time he starts going on about it...someone pass me a martini

I made a trip to the grocery store with both L and M in tow! It was not so bad, I nursed in the wrap because M nurses every 30 minutes to every hour and it took us an hour and a half once we parked to get into the store and back out to the car. I bought finger paints to make Thanksgiving cards with L sometime this week. It's beautiful out so we are going to head out for a walk this afternoon and I even planned dinners for this week - given two of them are frozen ones I made before M
Was born and the other is a rotisserie chicken- just planning them was a big improvement! M slept 6 hours straight last night and I got a 2 hour nap yesterday- overall I feel like it's a good day except that L is very congested, I am praying she doesn't get too sick.

It's going okay. Did some work in new baby's room, got my meal plan for the week set up, took DS and the dog for a walk. DS has been in a pretty good mood today, so he's been fun to be around. I have practice this afternoon, then an easy dinner, dishes, and working on SIL's shower decorations. I'm just really tired today, but I feel like I've said that my whole pregnancy - I'm tired. I seriously might try to take a nap right now.

Today's going pretty good. I went grocery shopping yesterday, so I don't have anything that I need to do today. I went to a yoga class this morning, and now both girls are napping. So I'm bumping while FI plays video games. When DD1 wakes up, I'll probably get her a snack then all of us are going to get out of the house. I'm not sure to do what yet, but it's still pretty warm outside here in So. Cal.

Today was a mix of awesome and frustrating. Awesome because I went to a restaurant called Full of Crepe for lunch and had a peanut butter, Nutella and raspberry crepe, which was amazing. But I spent the rest of my day auditing a hotel that didn't really have their records in order, so my day was an hour and a half longer than usual. Two if you count the fact that I worked through half of my lunch hour.

But I have off tomorrow for Veterans Day, so DD and I are meeting up with my cousin and her kids for story time and Barnes and Noble, so I feel more relaxed tonight than if I had to go to work after an annoying, stressful day. I'm letting DD play in the bath as long as she wants right now since I don't feel like I need to scramble to get stuff done tonight. :-D

I had a long day. Both babies have colds again so it's an absolute blast here...

On the plus side, dh and I got new phone and a tablet on Saturday. But my new autocorrect doesn't like me either. I emailed assn author that I was sending her cover questionnaire to the cover autopsy. :-?

Other than occupying Sicky kids, I've got a deadline yesterday, so I'm going to be up all night trying to meet it. Blerg.

Oh, and I told dh to get his hands off me because this is the wrong week not to wear a condom and we are out. He hasn't gone to the store yet, so he must not be that ambitious.
