TTT 6/7

Ten things Tuesday. Or three if you're me...

1. I need a double stroller I think. I'm nervous to wear DS in the carrier for long periods of time because I don't want him to overheat. Anyone have recommendations on a double stroller??

2. DD is really pushing boundaries and testing me since DS entered scene. But It's hard for me to be mad at her bc she's so cute! I need a better poker face. 

3. Coffee is life. Even more so with 2 under 3. Going to get my second cup now..ciao ciao!

  • 1. Night feedings are really hard. 
    2. I ordered birth announcements from Walgreens for 40% off. Picking them up will be my outing for the day
    3. DH went to work today. Let's see how Lark and I do on our own

    1. I lost my cool last night and gave my exhausted baby to DH and refused to help. Then I cried and cried because I felt like such a bad mom because my baby was so upset and I wasn't supporting DH. 
    2. Part of me wants to pump a bunch and let DH handle Ezra's 7:30-12:30 fussy time and just do whatever I want like he does, but I'd lose it I'm sure.
    3. Can I get props for folding three loads of laundry, doing the dishes, eating three meals, drinking four glasses of water, going on two walks, making dinner, taking care of the baby including giving him a bath, and taking out the trash last night cuz DH certainly didn't notice.
    Um yes. Props!
  • 1. Pollie slept in only three hour increments last night, she usually does four hours and I never realized how important that extra hour of sleep was
    2. I need to shower but she keeps half waking up and I know as soon as I get in the shower she'll wake up hungry
    3. Really want to go for a walk today but DH has the stroller in his car and he's working 
    4. Since I can't shower for fear of waking her up I guess it's coffee time instead 
  • 1. Corbin slept for a long stretch early last night. Which made for a not so fun time from 2:30 am on to about 9:30 or so where he would only sleep in 20-30 min increments.
    2. Of course now he's sleeping and has been for over an hour. Which is great... Except I wanted to try and get out of the house and go to the store and maybe a Starbucks run with him today. But I am not going to wake him up to do so.
    3. His new favorite place to sleep is his rockaroo. He loves to be held and rocked to sleep and I love to do it, but not so much all day long.
    4. Just bought a new sleeper and 3 new outfits for LO, including his outfit for the Fourth of July. I can't wait till they get here bc everything is adorable.
    5. I secretly want to go out bc I want to buy more baby clothes. I think I have a problem.
    6. Frantically eating and having coffee right now bc I'm worried DS is going to get up any minute.
    7. Speaking of which he literally just got up - kinda. But he's not crying and sitting contently in the rockaroo so I'm leaving him be for the moment.
    8. I consider this nap time a success. I got a shower, got real clothes on, got some food, and started laundry.
    9. Can't wait till later when it cools down a little so LO and I can go for a walk. Going stir crazy with all the rain lately.
    10. I never had much of a sweet tooth prior to LO but now bring me all the cookies, candy, ice cream, etc. Another reason I wanted to get out of the house today. This probably doesn't help with my plan to get back into shape.
  • 1) I have to go try on and order my dress for my friends wedding since I'm a bridesmaid but in reality it should be a crime to make a 3weeks pp Momma try on a fitted dress.

    2) I got more than 2 hours of sleep last night! If it were Wednesday I'd call that a win!

    3) I have family visiting. I love that they want to help with baby but still feel oddly protective. Please tell me this is normal and I'm not loosing my nuggets..,,

    4) I not only made breakfast but I also found time to sit down and eat it.

    5) I'm running out of things so I guess this is it.
  • 1.  Last night Harper went back to sleep right away after her 3:30am feeding but I couldn't fall asleep for an hour.  So annoying!
    2.  My MIL is coming over after she gets out of work and I'm not excited.  I just feel so smothered by her lately. 
    3.  We had newborn photos taken on Sunday and the photographer just posted two sneak peeks - they're adorable! 
    4.  Today is our two year wedding anniversary. 
    5.  I got really frustrated with Husband yesterday because I feel like "having a baby" has been so easy for him and it's barely changed his life and it's changed my life so much that I'm lucky when I just get to take a shower...
    6.  I still can't get over how stinkin cute my baby is.  I'm obsessed. 
  • 1. My MIL backed out of watching DD2 when I return to work, so we're putting her in daycare fulltime. Woohoo! I was apprehensive because my MIL can be unreliable with her job. She changes jobs often. I'm glad she backed out instead of me telling her we decided to put her in full time day care regardless.

    2. The LO woke up at 5am and as I was in the living room changing her, DD1 came out and said she threw up. Luckily it was in the toilet and not in her bed. Did not want to deal with changing sheets.

    3. Work is going to shit. I go to the office a few days a week to handle certain tasks. I seriously don't know what they do when I'm gone. 

    4. I'm going to attempt to jog today or do a circuit workout. I've just been walking and doing upper body exercises. Can't wait to get back into working out. 

    5. I'm hoping my daughter can keep DH's father's day gift a secret. She's horrible at secrets. 

    6. I had to get rid of all the newborn size clothes. Sad day. 

    7. We're redoing DD1's room. Because nothing like a summer project with a newborn.
