Talk About it Tuesday

I'm sure I've exceeded the appropriate amount of posts for a day, but LO is not feeling well so we are stuck inside, and he has been asleep more so than usual so I am bored.
Post your rants, raves, randoms here.
1. We had weather for all seasons in the course of the day yesterday. Now it is cold outside and we are all bundled up. I am waiting for the warm to stay.
2. A few days ago, I was talking to LO while making a plate of food at a party, and I said "No you can't have that! You need teeth for that." while he reached for a hard candy I wouldn't give him even if he had teeth, and this lady with a 10 month old looked at me and said, "Oh! A late teether? That's too bad. My baby had teeth at 4 months," while handing her baby the candy.
3. DS1'd biological father (they have not relationship because of a long ass story that happened long ago although I do take him to see the family on holidays sometimes) texts me to tell me that DS1 will have a new baby sister in September, and he wanted to tell me before I heard it somewhere else. See above gif for my reaction.
Apparently the baby is not his (as of a week ago) ex-wife's and not his current 41 (he is 28) year old girlfriend's, but rather his 19 (ish) year old ex girlfriend's baby.
He then tells me, "who would have thought- 3 babies by 3 different baby momma's!"
Yes, I procreated with and briefly date this (when I was young and dumb)! Another long story.
I feel like I might have to change my screen name to something less obvious so I can share my stories.

Re: Talk About it Tuesday
Exhausted here today. Dd1 was up all night, throwing up every half hour from 8:30-5. Poor kid. And today is Grand Day at school where grandparents come and have lunch with the kids and they give them cards and books they made for them. She's really bummed she is missing it. I feel bad for the poor thing, she must be exhausted.
Wow - I think I need some sort of diagram to figure that out.
We had a pretty good night last night. It was Passover dinner at BILs and DH and I were really nervous about how the babies would do. Last time we tried to go to an event there they freaked the f out and we had to leave early. But - they were little darlings and charmed the pants off everyone. We held them on our laps at dinner and they had their first taste of knish and matzo ball soup and pineapple which they LOVED. At one point I looked over and saw MIL dipping Haley's paci in the wine and I was like "Lets not do that m'kay?" but other than that it went fine. But the real miracle of the evening was that Haley slept from 11:30 until 5 AM straight!!! That's the first full night for her in months! I was still up anyway with Lizzy, but at least one baby STTN finally!
ETA: I apparently can't comprehend things today because it seem you cloth diaper and are researching them! Duh! Hopefully you can find one that works better than what you are using.
She spiked a fever Saturday night that still isn't going away so we're at the pediatrician now. Waiting for her RSV and Flu test results and the radiology report on her chest x-ray. Poor thing. She's been to the Dr and ER waaay too often since birth (jaundice that continued for months, a fever when she was only 2 weeks old, upper respiratory infection with wheezing and a stomach virus that caused alot vomiting whi led to dehydration. ) I'm looking forward to the end of cold/flu/RSV season!
After almost 3 years of IF and a crazy roadside delivery, we are loving life with our second beautiful daughter!
I'm pretty unmotivated at work today. I'm exhausted from moving and the thought that LO's room still hasn't been unpacked makes me more exhausted. I just wish it was all set up!
I know... Everyone at the table was like "oh that's so funny"
On the other hand - Haley DID sleep through the night for the first time in months - maybe I should start dipping all the pacis in wine!!
We were up all night with a teething & screaming baby (I'm really hope that's the reason for this hell). Tylenol did not seem to help very long so I called the Dr today and got the okay for Motrin. I am praying for a better night. Also, I called daycare to see how he was and they said great and he took a good long nap. No shit, he was up alllll night! WTF.
I have not accomplished anything at work today.
I was JUST thinking this! We were having luck with the pampers overnights but lately in the am she literally is covered in pee. She is sleeping on her side now so idk if that has sometbing to do with it. she will not cry if she is wet (literally) though...we started changing her in the MOTN now but I don't want to wake her just to change her diaper! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I honestly have no idea why I continuously try to be her friend, to be nice, etc. Part of it is probably because DH and her boyfriend are best friends, he was the best man in our wedding. So I don't want to make things awkward for them. But she is on my post-it & could deft use a throat punch. /end rant.
Thank you for making me feel better about it, I needed that!
