Waiting on an electrician. DS1 is whining so it's going to be that kind of day. DS2 is napping. DH's ship is out doing an exercise and he's been gone for 2 weeks.
I'm jealous. H works about 12 hours Saturdays so it's just me and DS. We both have a cold. My day started by being covered in projectile vomit and bathing the baby and myself. I have about 4 hours worth of training I need to do for my seasonal job before 11PM. Meh.
At least I have pumpkin coffee and hot toast bread waiting for me in the kitchen!
My sister spent the night so LO and I got to wake up and have coffee with her Auntie. Now we are on our way to take LO's Great Nana to brunch. Then head to see my brother's new house. Busy weekend!!
LO sleeps a good night lately, then wakes, nurses, sleeps on me for another few hours. That is pretty much what we do every morning. I'm not looking forward to going back to work. Will miss the cuddles and sweet baby sighs. I'll eat this up every weekend!
DH is helping out with harvest so it is just me and little miss. We will be cleaning today because she gets baptised tomorrow and we might have people over. Plus DH goes back to nights Monday so the next 6 weeks will be hard to clean during the day.
Not much... DD1 woke up at 5:15 today, awesome. So she is watching all the Disney movies while we drink all the coffee trying to wake up. Might go to the park today, and Costco, and otherwise just chill. I go back to work Monday so I'd like to have a low key weekend.
Unfortunately DH and I both have work stuff to do this weekend so we have spent time on those projects this morning. This afternoon we are going to a local fall festival or two. Tonight probably cooking at home and relaxing w a movie or some Netflix.
I'm being featured in a new pregnancy/motherhood blog during the month of October, so if you ever wanted to know more about my pregnancy, birth, and motherhood experiences than anyone ever should, check out my posts in the link below!
We woke up, DH watched ds while I got dressed and we all went to a baby music class. Now I'm enjoying some coffee and lunch while ds naps. This afternoon I'll be teaching violin lessons while DH plays with ds!
Up at 7. Shower, dress,etc. Feed baby, give DD1 a bath, haul all three kids out to DD1's dance class. Come home, frantically clean the house, birthday party for kids 1&2 today at our house. Just family, but its still enough to make it stressful! And my niece is spending the night tonite so Ill be wrangling two 6 year olds and a four year old along with little baby. Fun times!
I had DS wake up DH so I could sleep in. Now we are just doing random stuff around the house. DH and DS are going out to a hardware store to get a few things DH needs. DD and I will just chill at home. This is the first weekend in probably two months that we don't have anything planned and it is glorious!

DH and I had a lazy morning in bed with LO and the dogs, made blueberry pancakes (yum) and are going to go run a few errands. Going to bundle LO up and take the dogs to play at the dog park this afternoon in the first snow of the year! And then my ILs are coming for dinner
I'm sick but thankfully DH let me sleep in this morning so my tiredness headache is gone for the first time in 3 days. DD woke us all up at 6am so I went back to sleep in the guest room until 8:30 then laid there playing on my phone for another 45 minutes. Now DS is asleep on my lap while DD runs around and DH is moving furniture to shampoo the carpet. I just hope my sore throat goes away soon so I can fully enjoy DH doing chores without my prompting.
Last night MIL (she is amazing) slept over and got up with DS, so I got 7 consecutive hours of sleep and felt fantastic (DS sleeps 2-3 hour stretches usually). I made her breakfast for her bday and as a thank you. DH took his DD to a bday party. We were going to take DS, but I get anxious when we are out longer than 3-4 hours....I am not comfortable NIP unfortunately, so we bring bottles and I constantly worry about needing to pump or nurse. I'm glad the two of them are spending some time together, though. Later, we will do something for MIls bday.
Having an awful day with LO... Nonstop fussing and refusing to nap. Trying to get ready for my moms bday party tonight which is dressy and everything I have to wear makes me look fat or doesn't fit at all. The one dress I can barely make work has no shoes to go with it. Everyone I know will be at this party so I'm just feeling so shitty about the way I look. Hopefully no one will judge.
Hubs is at work for 10 hours so it is just me and the boys. We did some grocery shopping and now I am attempting to do homework and clean a little because we have friends coming over later with a leaf blower for us and dinner. It is dreary here so I have zero motivation. I just want to watch Gilmore Girls and sit on the couch.
Took SD to a 2 hour "fitness extravaganza," which included zumba, cardio kick boxing, Pilates, and a couple other classes. It was great but my legs are going to be really sore. Now we're just hanging out and watching football with some friends. I have some homework to do later
Oh, I also applied for college today. So there's that.
(I'll add that I went to college after high school but I dropped out. I didn't know what I wanted to do and just wasted money because I felt pressured to go to school. I will never pressure my kids to do that. To do well, yes, but not go for something they aren't 100% or even 90% sure about.)
Just read Mathew
McConaughey crazy tale about his stand off with a ram at the grand canyon and warning there's a scary situation with a child but the child is ok. I'll let y'all google it. It's kinda unbelievable.
I love that man. He is so sexy to me. Yum yum yum. Also, Captain Hook on Once Upon A Time. OMFG he's so dreamy.
@lizzie82088 , I doubt anyone will judge. You just had a baby! I'm sure you don't look bad at all. Embrace your new curves, girl! Maybe sometime next week, you could go shopping or go to the salon. You need a girly day.
Also, I'm with the lot who think Captain Hook is sexy. I'd hop into bed with that man any day!!

Thanks lady! That made me feel better. I just need to get some new clothes that fit my new body... I have a feeling it's going to hang around for awhile longer.
Busy! We had a birthday party for a friend's 3 year old this afternoon, so I still was up for my 5 am workout, grocery shopping etc. in the a.m.
Party was good fun, but in the city so a pain to drive there and back - but DS is turning into a car-seat champ - he loves watching the mirror I got for the backseat.
Re: What's your Saturday like?

So many good games on today!
Well....probably just some tame football watching and laundry.
I can only dream about shenanigans these days.
Watching football this afternoon and will go have supper at my SIL's place.

Home now and about to drink a well-earned beer.
