  • Ethan still has his Christmas tree in his room.  He uses it as his nightlight. I told him it was going away and he freaked on me.

  • DH was watching the girls when was in the shower yesterday evening, and I heard Julia crying and Ava whining about something, so I took longer than usual.  I have them for 10 hrs a day, he could handle 15 mins. :-)
  • I am always obsessed with pre-vacation primping. I don't want to look back on all of our travel photos and be disappointed by looking like a frump.

    We chose our resort because we got a great deal; if I added on the costs of; bootcamp and zumba classes, teeth whitening, tanning, all new sundresses, new bathing suits, swim hat, sunglasses... to our vacation total, I would probably want to vomit.

  • I know that it is bit good for me at all, but I have been going tanning these past few weeks and I love it. It is my treat to myself for losing the last of my pregnancy weight and getting back to my "skinny" pre-pg weight. I always feel better about the way my body looks when I am not so pasty white, and some days it feels like pure heaven to just lay in a warm tanning bed for ten minutes with no other option but to just lay there and relax. I think it is the most relaxing part of my day. I know that tanning can be really bad for you, but I figure a few times a week for a couple of months out of the year is not going to kill me and it does wonders for my mental health.

  • My house is a disaster area! I think I've vacuumed once since C was born almost four weeks ago. I get nothing done bc she wants to be held all day and with both kids home it's impossible to do anything. We have company coming this weekend and I have no idea how I'll get the house cleaned before then. Part if me doesn't even care!
  • I nurse Audrey to sleep every night and for naps on the weekends.  Even though my girls have proven to be vastly different, I still hope that it will be easy to break her of it like it was Stella.  Plus, she's my last baby so I am taking all of the cuddling I can get!

    I rarely wear my winter coat.  I bought it last year and it was 1 size too big.  I didn't think it would be a big deal but it is and I hate how bulky it feels.  Thank goodness for a mild winter!

    I really want to brag about Stella but I feel like I don't have an outlet to do that without making people feel bad.

  • I had a super crappy day yesterday, so I took a nap in the afternoon while I should have been working.  (I currently work from home.)

    I took Alex to daycare yesterday morning and slipped on ice in the parking lot while carrying him.  I did my best to protect him from hitting the pavement hard...using my elbow.  He was fine...I was in pain.  I left him at daycare and asked them to watch him extra closely because he had a tiny bump on his head (they felt so bad I think there were 10 sets of eyes on him all day long.)  I got the 7 year old on the bus and went to the ER.  Luckily it's not broken...just painfully bruised.  I finally get home, eat lunch and call my boss to see what she needs me working on in the afternoon when my cell phone rings.  The 7 year old is sick at school and needs to come home.  I brought him home and then just took the rest of the day off and took a nap.

    A bunch of my FB friends were telling me that I should have some wine...but with DH out of town during the week and the luck I was having yesterday I figured me having wine would mean that one of the kids would fall out of bed and need to go to the hospital or something.

  • I am a NUT when it comes to my kids having a nose full of boogies.  It drives me nuts!!  The other night Dylan had a huge one in there that I just HAD to get out.  I tried really hard with just a tissue but it wouldn't come out so I then used my little pinky nail.  It was right on the edge so I thought no big deal...it'll come out no problem.  Wrong!  I ended up scratching his nose and now he has a scab in there that keeps bleeding every time I wipe his nose.  And of course he has a cold right now so his nose is constantly running.  Anyways, I feel HORRIBLE for doing this to him.  I should have just left the damn boogie alone :o(

  • I was supposed to meet with a principal at work this week about a goal I was working on. Well, I didn't quite finish everything I needed to do (supposed to have t done by end of January) so I put off emailing him back and will do it over vacation. I will use the "my husband was in the hospital" excuse.

    Boogie Wipes are the bomb!  The saline in them seems to dissolve the boogies but they seem much gentler than wipes.  I only use them when he's got a cold...but they get the dried gunk off a sore nose with no tears.

  • I knew Abby had a weight check today so I let her eat more junk food  for a night time snack then I normally would.  I also went and got her nuggets and fries from Wendy's.  I'm just tired of going to her doctor's for weight checks every couple of weeks.

  • I've been having the worst few weeks/months. Kids have been sick for going on 6 weeks, all while I'm trying to pack my entire house. DH has not packed a single box, our plan was to do a lot this weekend. Well, now he's sick too and has spent most of the day napping. On top of everything, I fell down the stairs while holding T (he's fine, my toe is badly bruised, maybe broken), and then I stepped on it wrong today, fell and broke T's bouncer. So I've decided I'm going on a shopping spree. I'm going to get a really expensive purse and I've already gone through the latest Boden catalog and marked off hundreds of dollars worth of clothes and I'm buying it all and I don't care about spending that much.

    Not being flamey, just wondering how much she weighs.  Tyler is going to be 5 in a couple months and hasn't even hit 40 lbs yet.  Ppl think I starve the kid.

  • Myself and Ty's teachers and therapists have all be pushing for Ty to get services and support in Kindergarden next year.  He will need to go to a different school from the neighborhood kids and ride the short bus :-(  While I know he still needs this and have been asking for it, now that the elementary team have said they are going to recommend it as well, I feel terrible about it.  It never bothered me needing special preschool or EI, always with the hope/goal of normal K.  But now that the time is here and he needs special ed (not for achedemics but because he over reacts) and needs to ride the short bus (he yells at kids and even adults if they break his rules) I feel like I have failed him and just want to cry when I think about it.  I know I am going to break down and cry at hs eligability meeting.  They are probably going to think I am a looney since I have been on board all along, but the actuality of it is horrible.  I guess I feel like we have crossed the point of no return where his needing special services will not be forgotten once he is in school.  And it is going to absolutely crush him that he can't get on the big bus with his friends come Sept.

    You're moving to a new state- new climate. A new wardrobe seems perfectly acceptable to me :) Shop on girl, you deserve it!!!

    I don't think you are being flamey at all.  She weighed in at 27 pounds today.  They started doing the weights checks because they found out that she lost 3 pounds between November and January.  And at her last weight check/recheck of her ears she hadn't gained any weight.  So they requested that she come in today for another check.  They were happy with what she gained so they said they would see us at her 2 1/2 year appointment.   My MIL has accused me of not feeding her enough too ever since she was born.

    Brianna is 2y 6m and weighs 28lbs and tall.  Maybe their scales were off, combiened with her clothes.  I had a OB appt when I was pg where it looked like I lost 12 lbs in a month when I know I hadn't lost any.  From then on they kept me on the same scale every time.

  • The absolute only reason I am even able to decide on a name is that they won't let us go home without one. Names are hard. Now I filled out the paperwork and I am hoping I chose the right one.

    Wow, I had no idea this was a rule!

    You totally did choose the right one! It sounds perfect with your last name. It goes well with C's name, and isn't totally out there. I really like it!

    Absolutely right! It goes very well with C's name, and is a beautiful choice!
