Good Morning (thur)

How was everyones night? What's going on today?

Mary had a bit of a fussy night last night. But she slept better than she has in weeks so whatever. ;) 

I can't believe she is 7 months old today. I just saw my siggy and couldn't believe it was mine. Time is flying by. I watch her crawl to me and pull herself up and "talk" to me and I just can't believe that's my girl. She has changed so much in the last month. When she turned 6 months she was just barely crawling and now she is an old pro. Where did the month go?

Re: Good Morning (thur)

  • Happy 7 months, Mary!

    Last night I promised myself that I would go to bed a little bit earlier so I can start getting used to getting up early for work (4am!). I ended up going to bed earlier (9:30), but still could not get my @ss out of bed until 6:30. 

    Today I want to be home all day and do some cleaning and organizing. I'm hoping to take out, wash, and iron all my pre-pg work clothes to have them ready for next week. Yea right!

  • Oh, Irma. You can do it! :)

    I had the same plan before I went back (to wake up early). But I swear your body knows you don't actually need to be awake so it just sleeps in. But somehow, you will be able to get up. I have to get up at 4:30 now. So early, but somehow I do it.

  • Morning. I had a pretty good night (besides the bug incident this morning.)

    We went to Michaels to get a couple supplies for the advertising material I am putting at the "My Gym" in Rancho today! : ) Wheeeee!

    Today is my Friday! Thank goodness! We have our 3d ultrasound tonight, I cannot wait!

    I have a newborn session tomorrow, maternity saturday, maternity sunday. Busy weekend ahead....

  • Morning! I was at the mall forever yesterday. L's pics came out cute, but nowhere near Val or Amy quality. Plus it took forever. Eh, I don't think I'll be going after or GC is used up... I did get some free undies and a bra at VS - I am SO over nursing bras.

    I am so proud of myself I made garlic mashed potatoes from scratch yesterday. Big deal for me!

    Today just hanging out with L and getting my hair done this afternoon. I'm excited, I think I'm gonna go red.

    I got that free undies coupon too! I always use them. Don't forget to post a pic of your new hair when you get home! :)

    hey, the pics were free ; ) I just cannot go to chain places now that I've become a photo snob.

     

    Was it difficult to make the garlic mashed potatoes? I LOVE those and would love to try and make them : )

  • Kristy~ Wow, I can't believe it's been 7 months!! Happy birthday Mary!

    Irma~ I'm sorry your having a hard time. You'll do ok, I'm sure. It'll suck, but you'll rock on. Smile

    Becki~ Go Red!!!! A girl after my own heart. Wink

    Last night H and I met up with Tiff for coffee. She is AWESOME! Than we grabbed some Chick-Fil-A and headed home for some relaxing time. One of my best friends had her baby last night and the hospital is 5 min away if we walk, so we'll probably be going over there tonight to gush over the new addition.

  • Kristy: Happy 7 months Mary!

    Irma: Ditto Kristy. Enjoy these last few days sleeping in. Start going to bed early though. You'll make it!

    Val: Finally! I can't wait to see the pics :D

    Becki: I swear you're always cutting or dyeing your hair. lol Cut siggy btw.

    Something must be in the air because P & I had a fight last night. I was annoyed so after putting C to bed I went to Target. I finally made it home, only because Target made me leave. :( oh well, I finally dropped off C disposable camera from daycare.

    Nothing going on tonight. :p

    I'm beginning to feel a bit snobbish myself :) You guys have spoiled me. And they're pretty expensive!

    The potatoes were sooo easy! This is the recipe I used.

     

  • P's sick.
    He came home with a runny nose yesterday and then started sneezing non-stop. He slept restlessly till 1:30 am when he threw up all over himself and the crib.

    I gave him a bath and tried to get him back to sleep but he could only fall asleep on my chest and kept waking up with those "falling" type dreams where you jerk awake. Poor baby. I got about an hour of sleep the whole night.

    It was torture with the meds making me so sleepy but not being able to sleep 'cause P needed me.

    I think he just has a bad cold.

    Poor baby! I hope he feels better soon!

  • Amy - so sorry to hear P isn't feeling well :  (

    Becki - yes, they are pricey. And those mashed potatoes look good and fairly quick and easy to make! TFS!

    Poor baby!  I've been going through the same thing with Sarah this week.  I hope the little guy feels better!

  • Happy 7 mo Mary!

    Yay for 3d u/s's Val! 

    Tiff is wonderful isn't she Melinda?

    So sorry P isn't feeling well, hope he gets better soon and that you can sleep Amy!

    Yesterday i spent the day at my moms with the doggies, we went swimming!  It was so much nicer to be someplace cooler then riverside!  :-)  and poolside!  As for today i am going to the beach for a few hours with a firend!  So excited for that!  It is so  nice to get out of the house!  Hope everyone has a great day!

  • We finally had a good night with Sarah!  Except for the 2 major tantrums she threw when we got home.  She ate in her booster seat which she LOVED.  My little baby is no longer needing the high chair... Crying  After dinner and when C got home we spent most of the evening outside watching her play with her water table - she just loves that thing! 

    Nothing big today...just work then straightening the house up for the housekeeper who comes tomorrow.  We have a busy weekend so it will be nice to just relax tonight.

    Hope everyone has a great day!

  • Called in sick today- my back and neck are in agony... I had back-pain induced insomnia last night and didn't get to sleep until after 3am :(  I'm praying my chiropractor has an appointment today and the same goes with his massage therapist!

  • last night was the usual. Got deltaco for dinner. Discovered isabel had ants in her bed,poor thing has like 6-7 bug bites. So she slept with J and I last night. It was kind of nice cuddling with my little girl :)

    Just wish we could figure out where the ants are coming from. I hate when's there no trail to follow.

    We had ants REALLY bad when we moved in here in December- my H used something called: Home Defense from Lowes.  It is a white bottle with a trigger sprayer on it.  We have not had ants since he sprayed the stuff on the outside of our house. We didn't spray inside because we have cats... but he sprayed the base of the house all the way around and it totally took care of the problem AND it took care of our black widow spiders as a bonus!

    We'll have to try that. Thanks
