Ten Things Tuesday

And go!

1. E is having a really hard time with teething right now. She fussed/yelled/cried for two hours last night before I could calm her down - and that was with teething tablets and a little Tylenol.

2. Totally fell off the diet wagon last night - I was in survival mode. Dinner was a piece of pizza, spaghetti squash, cheese, a granola bar, two perogies, maybe a carrot. And a pint of Guinness.

2. I have two major grants that I need to have submitted by April 1. One is last minute and the other, well, I have no programming to base it one. But I am pushing through and will succeed.

3. My new boss told me that he is impressed that I am making this happen. I told him to hold his impressed-ness until it finally happens. And then asked if I really had a choice.

4. I love the workouts with the new diet plan I am doing...the diet itself, not so much. After I finish the program on Monday, I think that I am going back to Weight Watchers.

5. Because I don't have enough to do, I am organizing a 5k Memorial Day weekend to help fund raise for John Hopkins' Project RESTORE. Its for a good cause and to help people like my mom but geeze, what was I thinking?

6. I really think that I should be allowed to drink at work. And sometimes I do have a glass or two. The benefits of working for a non-profit who hosts events.

7. My BFF, E and I are road tripping it in two weeks to take care of some things for the friend's upcoming wedding in October. I am super excited to go. I haven't seen my family since Christmas.

8. Even though I put lotion on my feet ever night, I have a huge, dry crack on my left heel. It hurts like a mutha to walk.

9. I just bought DH some super lotion for his hands and may have to keep it for myself now.

10. I am in serious need of a mommy play date.

1. Pumping would be hands free except that I am holding the power supply up with my left hand or it doesn't work.
2. Adding a call to Medela to my for do list.
3. MIL has been super nice this visit!
4. I am going to try a new bakery today that has good coffee. Yay!
5. Had a cancelled meeting this week. Love getting an unexpected windfall of time.
6. The guys are starting to l.o.v.e playing with each other. So cute.
7. Last night I took baby out of the tub to get his PJs on....and he battled and wriggled away, crawled back to the bathroom, pulled up on the tub, and grinned and giggled at his big brother, who was still in there bathing.
8. So cute!
9. Maybe multitasking isn't for me. Just spilled a quarter tube of milk.
10. Did I mention that new bakery has good coffee?

theuntaggablek · March 2014

@rondoyke I have that dry crackle skin too! And props to you for the workouts and grant writing!

1. We're closing on our house one month from today

2. I am soo ready to get out of our tiny apartment :!!

3. Spring is finally around the corner, be gone cabin fever! <:-P

4. My birthday is on Thursday and I'm pretty sure nothing is planned since Mon/Tues is DHs weekend and he's made no mention of anything :-q

5. Just once in our relationship I would like a nice surprise or thought out gift. Sigh. :-<

6. BIL's funeral is in two weeks and I'm flying alone with LO for the first time :-SS

7. DH and I won't be together for our first wedding anniversary because I'll be at the funeral

(

8. I really need to get LO to nap by himself. I get nothing done with a clingy baby and nap jail twice a day. I-)

9. Silas is good at getting water out of his straw cup but doesn't really swallow it. Hoping we can do milk soon. [-O<

10. I forgot about Silas's doctor appointment for his shots on Friday. MOTY.

1. @cfreymc I couldn't love your post, I'm sorry

Hugs to you!

2. @rondokye I'm nervous about this diet! My BFF ordered it too and neither of us knew the other ordered it so I'm excited for that.

3. All the treadmills were taken today at the gym and that made me sad because I really needed to run. Oh well, went back to my first love - the elliptical!

4. It's snowing here.

5. It's snowing here.

6. It's fucking snowing here. Ok, I'm not going to waste another spot for the damn snow. So, Haddock has been such a whiney mamma's boy lately and I really don't mind it.

7. Haddy woke up 10 times last night, WTF.

8. @missymr I'm waiting for my new glasses to come in, too. I'm excited.

9.The Real Meddleys Quaker brand fruit and nut bars are delicious, try them!

10. The Vtech sit to stand walker is obnoxious.

karen0477 · March 2014

1. Allie has some laryngitis going on, sounds miserable and pathetic when she cries

2. The cold I currently have was provided by allies kisses and raspberry blowing.

3. Need some speedy vibes for the eye specialist today, last time I took Allie we waited an hour and a half, I don't think I have that kind of patience today

4. I've fallen in love with a new author and just want to read all day

5. It's very gray and wet here today, I would love to stay home!!

6. I'm working in dh's 40th birthday presents and I think he will be happy

7. I hate that dh has no real hobbies, it makes gift giving events stressful for me!!

8. I took a bunch of cash out to buy said birthday presents so he wouldn't see where I was shopping, I think I will have to buy a new gel polish as a reward for myself!! Lol

9. I wish I was still in California, it feels so cold here

10. Going to take more cold medicine so I can breathe....

jennipalmer · March 2014

1) I think I might be really tired. I woke up in MOTN holding DH's disco stick. I may or may not have been going for seduction and fell asleep.
2)Liam is fussing right now because I stopped him from knocking head on wall.
3) Going to zoo today @Rmnam1‌, @EAGUIRRE2‌ and possibly @queenbone‌
4) But first I have to get dressed
5) Have to say I love @Rmnam1‌ DS. The waitress at brunch was awwing over the babies and he very seriously told her she can't have his baby sister lol.
6) Finally out of toothless club but not sure if it counts yet since it is just the tip.
7) By the sounds my adorable son is making he might need a rinse off before going to zoo.
8) Next weekend I am taking DD for more 8th grade dance dress shopping. 14 year old girls are a pain but I love this part.
9) Her date is a girl and she asked me if that is ok. Selfishly I thought of being a grandmother in my 30's and said yup even though I am ok with her dating boy or girl.
10) DH spoils her because she thought my budget was low so she called him. Secretly I don't mind and kind instigate because it is super cute.

fabk · March 2014

1.@missymr you mean you didn't get the 4in of snow I got this morning?!? Lucky!
2. @karen0477 who is the author?
3. I have to shovel off my deck.
4. So far spring sucks.
5 mh is OOT until tomorrow evening. Yay bed to myself!
6. I have an extensive to do list. So far Iadded another item to it so I could cross something off.
7. I have to take the dog to the vet in a few hours. I don't know how I will wrangle a 60lb dog and a 20lb baby on the move.
8. Laat swim class is tomorrow. That makes me sad.
9. But that means mil can't stalk us anymore! Yay!
10. I really want something really sugary. Uh oh.

TheLittleRedM · March 2014

1. Packing. I really need to start packing. I hate starting this process.

2. Thought one of my IG followers was one of you guys but today I realized she looked familiar. After stalking her, I realized she is an ex of DH. And not one I approve of. Unfollowed.

3. LO mimicked me this morning and almost said hi.

4. Watching GA over from the beginning. So many good characters gone

5. It's worsening my baby fever.

6. I want to eat but barnacle baby is asleep on my lap.

7. LO is starting to have separation anxiety from DH. I'm happy because it means I can have some me time but I'm also jealous.

8. Our zoo has a military discount on yearly passes but I feel weird getting one now when we won't be in the military by the time we use it.

9. I'm worried that one of my FTM friends in real life is depressed and will have serious PPD and/or PPA after her baby. I've talked about it with her but I don't know if she's ever talked to her midwife about it.

10. I am having Thai when I move back home. First meal out of my choosing and DH can suck it.

rondokye · March 2014

Cfreymc, congrats on the new house!

Asbromle, Yeah for a diet buddy! I'm really curious to see what you think of the program. I think that I just have a food issue. LOL.

crash916 · March 2014

1. Just realized I messed up something at work. F@&$!
2. DH and I are having a date this weekend...I am hoping for a couples massage

3. DD is the happiest baby in the world, which makes it hard to be mad about her nocturnal tendencies.
4. DH agreed to getting a maid service. So excited!
5. We are discussing where to go for our 5 year anniversary this fall. Ideas for things in Colorado?
6. I made homemade BBQ chicken pizza for dinner last night. I used bacon as a garnish.
7. I wish I could SAH...especially a after #1.
8. SAH is not financially possible. Boo!
9. I am getting a candy bar as an afternoon snack.
10. Back to worky work.

karen0477 · March 2014

@fabk it's Diane chamberlain, so far I have read "the secret life of Ceecee Wilkes" and "the midwifes confession"....both good.

redrocksmama · March 2014

1. LO is 8 months old today. How is this possible?
2. I'm having cramps and urges to eat all the things.
3. This must mean AF will be returning for the second time pp.
4. I'm worried my dog might have gotten into something she shouldn't have because she just threw up.
5. But she's gross and ate her vomit as soon as it happened. So at least I didn't have to clean much up.
6. Poor LO has a cough.
7. Poor mommy too, because it made him wake up 4 times last night. All for 30 minutes to an hour each.
8. I lifted weights at the gym yesterday for the first time in a long time.
9. Now I am so sore this morning! But I'm so happy to start doing that again.
10. It's nice and sunny here so I'm going to take a break from working and go on a good walk!

redrocksmama · March 2014

@crash916 I live in CO. So if you need recommendations, PM on what you are looking for and I'll try my best to help!

LauraB1016 · March 2014

1. I am so late to the game today.
2. Poor Allison is crabby because of her tooth (or that is what I hope it is)
3. Had a great workout this evening. Thank goodness I am already laying in bed because the only thing I can move is my fingers.
4. DH and I booked our vacation for June. I am super excited for a family vacation!
5. Allison was already in bed when I got home

( but DH and I got to spend some time alone together which is nice.
6. We just put together our Easter plans. No driving for us!
7. I got Allison an Easter basket but can't decide what I want to go in it.
8. Had a conversation with DH this evening because I thought my emotions were out of whack. DH thinks I am doing fine with makes me feel good that I don't feel crazy.
9. DHs best friends wife is expecting a baby soon. They are team green and I am soooo excited for them even if his wife is crazy.
10. I really am hoping this week goes by fast.

maryoosa · March 2014

1. I have a ridiculously long day tomorrow which entails leaving the house at 6:30 and getting home at 7:00pm
2. I agreed to take public transportation to meet DH at his job today and he took the "good" car. Which of course had all my warm babywearing clothes in it. It was a cold day.
3. I think my college friends and I have managed to plan a Sept. Weekend at a lake house. Yay.
4. I spent hours yesterday trying to figure out how to pay back student loans yesterday- on the phone with various lenders etc. Horrible things.
5. I also don't think I'm ever going to be able to own a home. There is no way we can come up with a 20% downpayment for even the cheapest homes in this city.
6. I made the mistake of putting squeaky blocks and stacking rings in the dishwasher, and now everything has water stuck inside them.
7.It's not even 10pm and I could sleep until tomorrow. Easily.
8. Less than 3 weeks until spring break.
9. I cleaned up the bedroom. This feels like a massive accomplishment.
10. Easter season means yummy candies

@missymr it's a good toy but it's just so noisy

theuntaggablek · March 2014

@laurab1206 I'm usually late to 10 Things Tuesday, too....so I can empathize. But good job with the workout! Also - I think pjs and books are the best things for holidays -- Christmas, Easter, birthday, Valentine's - when isn't a book or pjs a good idea, really?

@cfreymac - Blessings of peace to you and your family at this difficult time. And I totally hear you on wanting the birthday to be special...I felt the same way on my first mother's day, when I had all these ideas in my head of things DH might do, none of which he did. Congrats on the house!

coco2787 · March 2014

@simone711‌ thanks! Our new place is still on the east side but in the Elvehjem neighborhood.
