Reality- melt in my apartment
REALITY:
Really gonna do - cuddle my friend's new baby!!
Her son and mine are 2 days apart (Four years ago, DS came on her EDD, and her son came two days later). This year, her second baby was born on my DS's birthday. Sooooooo excited to go meet the little guy!! Also kind of excited to see the kids fawn over the baby, because their baby excitement is off the charts since we told them I'm pregnant.
go to the beach and day drink lol
what I will do:
trying not to itch myself to death!
WANT:
REALITY:
Not drama with me, but MIL likes to try to pull me and h into the ridiculous "drama" she has with others in the family. I'm not here for it though. Gonna enjoy grandpa in law's 91st bday picnic!
What I'll probably do:
*Rainbow 8/2015*
*Expected Rainbows 12/2018*
*Loss of Twin 5/2018*
But I’ll be emptying boxes instead...maybe crying into them as I realize how much stuff we need to get rid of

What I want to be doing:
What I will be doing:
Planned: reorganize office, start laundry, do charting, buy Poppy her first real bike
Actual: bought the bike and let Poppy take it for a ride — she so loved it! and caught on really quickly. Zero charting, zero laundry, zero reorganization.
Can I take a nap now?
What going to the pool with a toddler actually looks like:

what I envisioned: Awesome family vacation at Disney
what happened: baby gave vomit/diarrhea virus (vomited all over car seat- 7 times last Saturday) to Dad, Grandpa, Uncle, and a mild version to brother and Mom - only grandma spared. Had a fun vacation, but a stressed out family gif at Disney would capture the trip.

@echo-charlietango My husband had already paid (and tipped!) before they brought him out. He is too nice because I would not have left there without a refund! At least it'll grow back (eventually!)
@Activebaby oh man what a rough weekend!! Sorry things didn't go as planned, glad to hear everyone's better now!
DS2 due 12/12/18
@CecilB93 Thanks! He's still pretty adorable.
