Well, how was it???
My Friendsgiving was lovely! My friend made a delicious dinner, we all drank too much wine, and the entire crew napped on the couch/floor for about an hour after the meal.
How was your Thanksgiving?
Re: Well, how was it???
lol We survived. My older relatives are getting BOSSY! My mom was a total narc and told on her niece when the niece almost dropped the gravy boat out of the cupboard. People sat in the wrong place and my uncle practically yelled at them (but he kind of yells all the time because he just got cochlear implants). H did his best to be the comedic relief and I was the drama-stopper.
The food was yummy, as usual. Otherwise, glad to have done it, but glad it's over. Having Friendsgiving on Saturday and will be eating yummy Italian food and lots of wine!
E decided that she thinks looking around is cool now and didn't sleep well the night before and wouldn't nap that morning. H tried to let me sleep in and give a bottle. She is going through the bottle rejection phase so she just screamed for 10 minutes. So much for more sleep. Then I had to go to Thanksgiving at the IL's and hear about how someone's new baby sleeps 10-7 and wakes up once and sometimes sleeps 6-7 hours.
The positive was that I didn't gain weight.
It actually went really well! We had DH's parents and sister over and everyone was really cordial and it wasn't all that uncomfortable at all. I cooked everything which makes me super happy and it all turned out really well (according to DH). SD has been here since Wednesday and I won't lie, I am excited to send her back to her mother's so I can sit and do nothing. We did put up our hot pink xmas tree last night and bought a few more ornaments today - I am *trying* to get into the shitastic xmas spirit.
I tried to invite my parents over last night and they declined, no doubt because SD is here and if they ignore her, then they can pretend like I married someone without a child. Lord, have mercy!
my 8 month old still wakes a ton at night. I am totally jealous of people who have kids to STTN early (though my kids are really good sleepers once they hit about 12 months)
