Feels like Monday randoms
Morning.
Renee was up every hour fussing last night. I'm not sure if she's teething, or congested or a combination of both. We are all tired this morning. I wish I didn't have to work today 
Re: Feels like Monday randoms
Awww..sorry Renee wasn't sleeping well. Nights like that are hard on everyone. Hopefully you can go to bed early tonight.
I have today off. My big project of the day is to use the wet mop cleaner on the dining room rug and the runner in the hallway upstairs. I can't only imagine what the water is going to look like after I clean it.
The dining rug needs to be replaced but it really isn't worth doing it now with the kids.
Good morning! This is my first post-baby randoms post. It feels weird because normally I am giving a pregnancy update. Gemma is doing well. I can't believe how in love with her I am already. With Hudson I felt like it took a few weeks just because of the adjustment to our lives.
Wop, I'm sorry Renee was up all night. I hate when they don't feel well and you can't figure out why.
That baby in the stocking is adorable!
I'm at work but it is sooo quiet. The parking lot is practically empty. I have a feeling I'm not going to get much done today. DH has the whole week off, and I'm starting to wish I'd taken it off too.
Morning! I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas weekend. Ours was great!
Wendy, our parking lot is empty today too! Its going to be a slow week. Hopefully I'll be able to leave early a couple days.
Good morning all,
I am in GR this week- enjoying the fabulous weather of course. I'm trying to motivate myself to do homework and clean up the messy apartment. Shame. We came back last night to discover that Bryan left a sink full of dishes. I can't tell you how lovely milk smells after being left in the sink of a hot apartment for 4 days
.
I hope everybody had a wonderful Christmas! Stocking baby is cute!! Looks like a doll. Big brother is a cutie too! Does he love the new baby yet?
We had a rough kiddo night here too. Who knew a runny nose could cause so. many. problems.
Thank goodness I have the week off. Today we're relaxing at home since Ben took my car to work to fix the rotors. I have his car but I don't really want to drive it in the snow. Tomorrow we're headed to GRCM. The rest of the week is up in the air. I'm sure we'll fill it though.
)
You have snow?!?!
Yuck! hope you get to relax a bit this week.
I saw that thread, but didn't open it. I'm sure what I got is peanuts compared to their gifts. LOL. I love all of my gifts though, even though weren't expensive or lavish.
Rugs are clean...or at least I did attempt to clean them. I can't wait to clean the living room rug, but I have to wait until the tree comes down.
I'm meeting a friend for lunch and after that I'm organizing the kids toys. I have to figure out which ones I want to keep for them when they get old and ones to sell. I also need to reorganize toy boxes to switch things up a bit. Lucikly they didn't get too many toys, so it shouldn't be too hard to fit in their new stuff. The toughest will be the coloring book cupboard. I think I am goig to have to put some away for a later time. Right now we have way to many.
Lesson learned. I LOVE everything I got too, but holy cow, some of those girls got $$$ gift after $$$ gift and $$$ gift. I guess I didn't realize that grown ups still got that many gifts. Haha.
There is absolutely nothing for me to do today.
So....I just filled out and printed the LLC paperwork that I need to file. Putting it in the mail this afternoon.
2012 to do list already has something checked off!
I wish there was nothing for me to do. I'd do some word searches like no one's business.
I just paid for my classes (woohoo) and now I think I am going to start researching computers. I need to buy one so I can buy my e-books.
I'm so excited to start checking these classes off my list.
Happy day, friends.
Yay for Gemma fitting right in and clean gvsu rugs. Hoping WOP family sleeps tonight. Hooray for paid classes. Ick to smelly old milk and rear endings.
I do not think grown ups get that many $$$$ presents. I feel like a lot of the women on the national boards are not grown ups.
I so enjoyed the quiet when Jim and the kids were asleep last night, I stayed up wayyyy too late. Coffee day, indeed.
Haha, good point on the national boards.
Are you feeling better?
I am feeling so much better (thank you). That was el diablo!
We gave the kids some grow in water things in their stockings. Henry is closely monitoring them, and claims that they're going to grow HUGE and then... they're going to come alive.
Oh boy.
Henry sounds hilariously fun.
Ha! So true. My MIL always goes overboard. Funny thing, the apron my mom sewed for me means so much more than the XC skis I got from MIL . . .
