November 2013 Moms

Wednesday whining.

Doesn't have to be whining though.

I'll whine. I have to be at work 2 hours early today. Ugh.

On the bright side my mom got the job she wanted so now I won't be seeing her quite as much. Down side is now I have to pay for child care. My mom can only watch him 1 day a week with her schedule and she's upset! Seriously crying..

What's for dinner also? I can't decide. I really don't feel like cooking..

    H and I are heading to the breastfeeding support group this morning. He still won't breastfeed. I'm hoping the LC has some suggestions. I don't want to pump for two babies even if it's only for 1 1/2 months. 

     We're having tofu, veggies & rice for dinner.
    ETA: here's my whine - I left out the milk I pumped last night. 6+ ounces down the drain.

    I woke up in a sweat this morning. I haven't been feeling great the past few days so I guess my fever broke? Either way, that shit is gross. I'm havkng breakfast before bootcamp and I hope I feel okay. Mama needs her workout but working out when sick is the worst. The only meat I have left is chicken so I'm making hummus chicken for dinner tonight. I tried it a week or two ago and it's delicious. I need to go food shopping. One of my best girlfriends texted me at 5:30 last night that she was in the hospital and they were going to induce in the am. At 9:30pm, she texted me her baby was here. In those four hours, lucky bitch's water broke and she delivered naturally. Mom and baby are great. But I was the only one in my group who had a baby so I don't think anyone is as blown away as me that she had a start to finish labor and delivery in under 4 hours.

    That is amazing!!!! And I'm completely jealous!!!!!!!!!!!

     

    Hummus chicken???? Tell me more..

  • I admire those of you who send food from home to daycare. I never had the time with DD but I'm with @Sing2phins‌ about the aloha burger I would assume that it has pineapple.
  • Matthew once again nursed ALL NIGHT LONG! My boobs are exhausted.. I feel like I need to eat a cow to gain back the calories.. His top two teeth are through the gum though. Still not fully in, but I see white!!! There is hope! Or so I thought until my mom said "Are those his incisors coming in?" UGH!
  • I'm really over the mad dash of cleaning/organizing I find myself doing before our cleaning lady comes. Our new one starts today. She'll be coming bi-weekly and after the HFM saga we had in our house, I'm honestly glad to have a home that'll be clean and well maintained on a consistent basis because obviously I suck at doing it myself.

  • My dad is back in the hospital. They said he is septic. :(
  • @mommyxtwo1113 So sorry to hear about your dad.  Many thoughts & prayers.
  • I'm sorry @Mommyxtwo1113‌. Hugs to you and your family. Do you plan to visit?
  • I bought rose at @CFox815's advise last week. It's not the fancy shmancy brand she recommended, but it was all our liquor store had. I may have to have a glass or two with dinner tonight to attempt to kill some germs. The allergy meds have not touched this runny nose and itchy throat. I fear I have a cold. I'm glad I got the groceries out of the way this morning and that we'll have a clean house by this evening so I can RELAX.

  • That is great news @CaiShov!
  • @mommyxtwo1113 I'm so sorry about your dad! You will all be in my T's and P's.


  • @CaiShov‌ that is such great news about your dad! So happy for you all :)

    @cagoldi I'm not sure. They don't know if he has mrsa or staph yet. His infectious disease Dr will have to clear him before anyone besides my stepmom will be able to get in. I am waiting to talk to my sis before making any plans becuase I really don't want to go to Georgetown alone. Its a really long and stressful drive.
  • @Finnaroo‌ I'm so sorry about your mom. I'll be thinking of you and her and hoping for the best possible news.
  • @CFox815 it's the stuff I sent you last week. I haven't tried it yet. Will report!

  • @Finnaroo So sorry about your mom.  Lots of prayers for her.
  • Missionaries showed up at my house last night of course right when I was trying to fix dinner. They were young so I didn't want to be a complete bitch and blow them off. They gave M a baseball-like card with Jesus on it. When I finally got them to leave me alone M asks who the guy was on the card. I said, "His name is Jesus. He was a nice man who lived a long time ago and tried to help people." She scrunched up her nose and said "I don't like him." I felt like throwing some holy water on her and saying a few hail mary's in her favor to make sure we're good with the man upstairs. In the picture he looked kind of like a sad and judgmental, perhaps even disappointed Jesus, not like the buddy Christ version which is more my style.

    Now I'm stuck with this card because I feel like I'll be smited (smoted?) if I throw it in the garbage. If I recycle it is that an acceptable means? I feel like it's the flag or something and I must properly dispose of it. #heathenproblems

    I seriously lol ed for 5 minutes. Thank you for that haha.
  • Nothing to do with the gas prices in Canada, but when I was in Romania in 2002 it worked out to around $12/gallon. A really, really diluted gallon at that, because they added tons of alcohol so it wouldn't freeze. When you pumped you wouldn't smell gasoline so much as you would the alcohol.

    @Finnaroo I'm sorry. It's hard to wait for answers. Can your sister be any kind of emotional support to your mom at all? She still lives there, right? Can she or will she help her with day to day tasks so she can rest should she need it?
  • Wow, @Finnaroo. Selfish doesn't even begin to describe her. I wish she was more reliable and thoughtful. It would make it easier on everybody if she could be counted on for something, even if it was just an errand or doctor's appointment here and there.
  • @Sing2Phins and @Caishov basically they are teaching Doug what he should do if he were to ever fall into the water.  The premise being at his age, he's probably to young to really learn how to swim by himself without flotation devices (which apparently can actually hinder a child from properly learning how to swim or something).  So she starts out with just holding him in the water so that he's floating on his back and we're going to build up to him being able to independently get to the back float position if/when he enters a body of water.  This is mostly "drowning prevention" type training.  He'll know how to float until an adult could get to him, then when he gets a little older we can start real deal swim lessons, and my priority there will be teaching him how to swim to the side of the pool and hang on.  
    Neva's on her 3rd week of lessons! She's doing great. Good luck with Doug. =]
