Re: Jingle Spam
This time of year is just busy. We seriously have something going on every day/evening until January. Yikes! Tonight is Hailey's elementary Christmas concert. She is so excited and I'm sure it'll be cute!
Eli thought that 4:10 would be a great time to start his day. I tried for an hour to get him back down but not happening. Coffee is brewing!
~O)@maryannespier sorry about the nightmares.
I'm up early to walk on the treadmill. Boring. :-(
There are three reasons for breast-feeding: the milk is always at the right temperature; it comes in attractive containers; and the cat can't get it. ~Irena Chalmers
I need to make a chiropractor appt too. I haven't been to ours since June and I'm dying lol
And it's grocery day. I loathe grocery shopping.
@hollandmama, I'm sorry. Poor little guy....tantrums happen. It sounds like you handled it the best that you could. >:D<
A busy week for us here too. I was to have a second interview for one of the jobs that I am vying for but it was cancelled due to a change in the President's schedule. I am really hoping that's not a sign.
This past summer, our neighbors gave us babysitting coupons as a thank you for watching their dogs while they were on vacation. DH and I are cashing one in this coming Friday so that we can have a date night and do some Christmas shopping. I can't wait.
Yesterday after nap and this morning DD played quietly in her crib with her dolly and pooh bear and entertained herself for a good 20+ mins. Who is this child?
We had our first full blown meltdown in public on Friday at Target. She screamed bloody murder while I was trying a couple shirts on and DH was holding her. The judgey looks... Seriously.
My school presentation is tonight. So I'll be prepping for that and putting some final touches on paper 2.
V and I leave Thursday for Dallas. @casey78 I will text you so we can GTG.
This morning we're running to a soap store and a hippy pharmacy. Possibly the library as I finished The Paris Wife last night. I'm excited to get out and about for some fun!
Busy week of work tasks, Christmas parties and overdue oil changes.
I'm so sorry. I know these meltdowns are no fun!
I missed the whole weekend of events on TB. We went car shopping Saturday and after six hours and no car, we walked out. Car buying is wayyyyy too stressful when you are irrational.
Yesterday, I woke up so tight and sore, my husband suggested a walk after I got done stretching. I spent the rest of the day and night paying for that walk as I had even more stomach tightening and my legs were so sore. I can't believe I used to run marathons. My husband had a banquet that we went to and our little guy wanted to run around the whole time. Since DH was speaking, I was on toddler watch and ended up sitting down and crying (again) because it was hurting so bad to get up and chase, then bend down, and pick him up.
I have a feeling today is going to be tough too. I just wish I wasn't this uncomfortable
So happy to have parents that will come up to watch her, so that I can get some work done. Hoping I don't end up as sick as she is!!
I agree @LauraC122 about rainy crap in December! I want fluffy snow so I can pull G around in his sled instead of the living room.
Sounds like these tantruming babies all planned their operation this weekend. We had a horrible experience eating out last night with LO. She terrorized us and all of Friday's. She would scream whenever she was in the high chair or our laps. We'd let her roam but then she kept trying to pull on people's coats or reaching over their tables. When we pick her up, she'd do the limp noodle and shriek. She even threw herself on the floor in front of people waiting to be seated. It was horrible.
In hindsight, I suppose we should've left early. But we were starving and would've taken another 40 mins to get home. We've never scarfed food down so fast in our lives.
Welcome to toddlerhood, eh?
ETA I should mention that once we strapped her in the car seat on our way home, she was happy as a clam. She kept clapping her hands and giggling. POSESSED.
I am nervous because it took him 2 hours to ask for breakfast. Usually. He asks for it 10 mins after wake up. This along with sleeping in.... [-O< hoping he's not sick
BTW...that made me and @simone711 sound like losers. @simone711 wanna join my losers who @hollandmama does not want to meet when compared to @casey78 faction?
On toddler meltdowns... My SO gave our LO a BUTTER KNIFE to play with at lunch yesterday! A knife, ugh. When he wanted out of the high chair I took the knife away and... whoa... holy meltdown!
I picked him up and gave the knife back and walked out to the bar. He wouldn't have gotten the knife back if my SO's 90 year old uncle wasn't trying to give a serious speech.
I still don't understand what made my SO even think that was an appropriate "toy" but I was in the bathroom when it was given.
No metal utensil is a safe thing to play with :-@
