Re: Weekend Randoms
DH was at work, but luckily my ILs live close enough that my FIL watched DS and my MIL drove me and DD to urgent care. DD was such a charmer at the office, smiling and 'talking' to the doctor and nurses, but 6 stitches later and waiting for my pain med prescription to be filled she had had enough. She had been napping for an hour already when I got hurt and then when my ILs arrived we just got her in her carseat and left.... I couldn't even put on a bra, so she was hungry and in need of a change. Huge meltdown!
I'm on Norco for the pain, and boy is there pain. Everything hurts it, even picking up DD. Last night she punched my finger while we were doing that get-your-hands-out-of-your-mouth-so-I-can-feed-you dance. OUCH! And giving DS a diaper change while he kicks..... F THAT!!!
Oh, and did I mention my entire family has a cold? DS was up all night super stuffed up and cranky as hell. DD has a nasty cough. DH feels like crap but is still going to work (he works an overnight 12 tonight, FML). And now that I'm on Norco I can't take DayQuil or NyQuil so I have to go out and pick up some cold meds without acetaminophen. This mama REALLY wants a glass (or two) of wine... wait, can't have that either right now. Aaarrrrrrgh!!!
ETA: Thanks for reading. Here is a dancing puppy for your time.
I'm doing a whole lot of nothing. Our pipe burst, so we have to turn the water on fill up buckets and pots quick and then turn it off! Blah! Right now DD1 and I are outside, and I'm practicing not hovering over her. She's doing really good. She's tasted a couple leaves and practiced the steps. It's sweet to see her being independent (or think she is! I'm still very close at hand, like a creepy batman!)
@lmk1566 Sounds like a wonderful evening. I haven't had a going out of the house date night since DD was born. The other day we stayed in had some shots and played Mario Kart though. That was fun.
@str13 Ah! I hope you get the pipes fixed soon! I love spending time with DS outdoors, they always want to eat the leaves. lol
@RedBaramid That daycare sounds amazing! I'm sorry you're getting sick. It's been going around with everyone I know. Boo.
eta- and I'd kill to get a stretch of sleep longer than 3 hours... I'm somehow functioning fairly normally, but I know deep down in side my body is begging me for some more sleep.
@tromboner DD1 climbed up the steps and knocked on the door and DH and opened it in his underwear because he thought that we'd locked ourselves outside!! Sooo worth it!
I plan on staying in my pjs all day and so will V. DH is going to see dumb and dumber two with a friend and his wife is my buddy and we are going to veg out around my house and do whatever the little tyrant wants us to do. Maybe I'll get a workout in somewhere this weekend too.
My dad is coming into town on Monday. We are celebrating "thanksgiving" on Tuesday. So...tomorrow I need to go buy everything for that dinner. Then I would appreciate a quick prayer on Tuesday evening as I attempt to cook a thanksgiving dinner on my own with a needy newborn...why did I agree to this again?! Hopefully my dad will keep LO entertained.

Also, just trying to deal with a cooped up child b/c of weather. This should be fun. (not!) He's already throwing the laundry around, and its only early Saturday afternoon. He knows I can't get off the couch when I'm nursing, so he's taking advantage. Just you wait, you little terd, until mama gets of the couch. Then you're butt is mine, and you are picking up the entire living room. He he he (evil laugh) lol
I recently finished Gilmore Girls and am binging Desperate Housewives now.
We started playing card games and of course played some Cards Against Humanity and my sister was so loud she kept startling DS in the den sleeping in his swing. And was getting bitchy at me for telling her to be a little more quite while he was napping. Wanted to throat punch her by the end of the game. Then she wanted to wake DS up before they left. A huge hell no had her storming out ... My poor BIL.
But it was a fun time. I love my dad so much and don't see him as much as I want to. Now that we have DS our 45 mins from both sides of the family is really not as ideal as it has been in the past. So I'm kind of bummed about that.
Tomorrow is football Sunday! We had a lot of fun watching college football which we haven't done on forever. My dad is a huge Badgers fan so it was a great game to watch them stomp on Nebraska
@tromboner hope you have a better end to your weekend and that finger gets a little by tomorrow to enjoy the end of the weekend!
@kateronium hope you start feeling better too! That just sounds awful and hopefully more soup for you!
We threw a dinner party last night and had a blast. DH did all the cooking and cleaning and I pumped extra so I could let loose a bit. Tired today but it was worth it! DS did pretty well during the party and went to sleep close to on time.
Today we're venturing to IKEA for some more shelves in the nursery. I want to get DS out of the condo and it's too cold outside for a walk. We'll see how many meltdowns he has!
Babies up a lot toward the AM ,but they are having a lot of daddy time so I can help my daughter put together her new room upstairs ( she moved out of old room so nursery can be downstairs with us ) so a lot of curtain hanging etc.. Although my BF has babies entertained I really wish he was fixing the broken light switches , finishing the flooring & painting the nursery but Can't have it all
