Confessions this Thursday

Happy Thursday Lovies!

I feel like I've been hit my truck this week. This crazy weather has sent my migraines into full on mode. Cameron has decided to fight sleep EVERY single night this week thus far and screams bloody murder. Fun times! Here a few things going on with me..

+ Still haven't posted a decent blog post in a few weeks. One day it will happen.

+ I FINALLY went shopping for myself last Sunday for a bit. I bought some new black skinny jeans and bras. I seriously about had a meltdown trying on bathing suits and decided I'd deal with that another day. I really wanted a pair of white jeans but they all were so low rise. Any suggestions on high waist-ed comfy white jeans? I'm open for suggestions.

+ I have an addiction.. to zulily! I need to unsubscribe to this blasted daily emails. I did score the boys baptism outfits (same ones I had looked at a boutique here) for $24.99 each. That was good. Everything else.. well they will wear it but do they NEED it?! Eehhh.. Mommy has a problem!

+ I want to eat everything in sight lately! I'm not sure what is going on. I'm sure the stress of my doctors appointment tomorrow isn't helping.

+ This weather.. sigh. Rain rain rain. Then tornado warnings, wind, hail, bleck! No one has time for this nonsense! I swear it's like it's rained every week since our boys have been born. No bueno. I need some sunshine and sand in my life!

+ We finally got our bed put back together! Last week my husband came to bed and kinda plopped down. He literally broke the wood side board away from the headboard. In his defense it had slid out a bit but really?! I was NOT a happy camper taking it apart at 11:30 at night. I had been asleep since 9pm. Then the boys were up at 12:30am.

+ I got my car back with no explanation as to why it wouldn't start last week. They replaced the battery for precaution. Fun times!

+ I have become an online shopper. I love to shop but don't have the time any more. 1st world problems over!

+ I haven't prepped a decent meal in weeks. I have got to get back to meal planning. The afternoons after picking up the boys are so busy, I worry about feeding them. My husband and I just figure it out. I really need to step up my game. If anyone has any quick, easy, healthy meals.. please send them my way!

Have a good weekend Lovies!

Confessions/Thoughts for this Thursday

Happy Thursday Lovies!

Here is a little confession of my thoughts bouncing around today..

+ I don't feel like I can keep my head above water these days. So blogging as well as many other things have taken a back seat. I even have a list of things I want to talk about but putting my thoughts together has been like herding cats!

+ Being a working Mommy (not discrediting the Stay at Mommy's at all- you have a tough job too!) is hard! I miss my babies like CRAZY! I literally have cried every morning lately. They are growing so fast and I feel like I'm missing so much! I'm for real jealous of our sitter. She gets more time with them than I do and well I don't like it!

+ $.. Lord I have cried/stressed over that stuff this week. Childcare is expensive! Life is expensive! Can I go back to being a college kid again?! Those were the days! I never really knew how good I had it back then.

+  My Hubs.. well sometimes I want to scream at him but this week.. He's a keeper. See Saturday is my birthday and I am not in the mood to celebrate anything. He actually found a last minute reservation at Bonefish! He also arranged for my Mom to come watch the boys. Sigh.. I'll keep him!

+ My Mom.. that woman deserves an entire post. I can't even.. When she leaves from visiting.. my house is clean, I have food in the refrigerator, the laundry is done, and my boys are super happy babies. Why or why.. can't see just move in?! I always thought I appreciated my Mom but since having my boys.. it's on a whole different level. I seriously would have lost my mind months ago if it wasn't for her.

+ HORMONES.. I had been good until.. well this whole going back to work thing. I want to cry ALL the time. I'm tearing up typing this. I'm just a hot MESS!

+ I'm SOOOO over this cold weather it isn't even funny. I want sunshine and warm weather. This cold and wind.. no bueno.

+ I actually need to shop for a few things for myself. But I would seriously rather poke myself in the eye than to try on a bathing suit right now. I need to drag my butt to the gym but when I actually have a minute.. I would rather sleep.

If you made it to the end of this.. God Bless You!

Thought for Thursday- 4 months

Happy Thursday Lovies!

Time is just flying away around here. I sound like a broken record. I think Emily Ley said it best when she said "the days are long but the years" are short. In my case months but still.. sigh. My sweet boys turned 4 months on Saturday 1/30/16.



Bennett

Weight/Height from 2/3/16 appointment: You weigh 14lbs 8.1oz. You are 2' 1.75" tall. 

Sleep: You wake up at least 2 times a night to eat. I am hoping you drop this back down to one time very soon. Mommy and Daddy love seeing your face but really need some more sleep!

Clothes and Diaper Size: Clothes you can still wear some 3 month things and all 6 month things. You are in size 2 diapers. 

Diet: All formula. 

Products We Love: Still loving the wubbanubs, Dr. Brown bottles, and Twin Z pillow.

Milestones: Are you starting to smile, coo, and laugh a little. Not as much as your brother but we'll take it! You are still to sit up a little assisted and are getting good at holding your head up. You're blowing bubbles too. 

Likes: Your Mommy! Definitely a Mommy's boys and I love it! Breaks my heart when you roll your lip out and cry when I leave you or leave the room though. You are starting to somewhat like tummy time if it's on your Twin Z pillow. You love for Mommy to do patty cake with you. You smile and giggle!

Dislikes: When Mommy leaves you. 


Weight/Height from 2/3/16 appointment: You weigh 15lbs 3.1oz. You are 2' 2" tall. 

Sleep: You are still getting up 2 times a night. I am hoping you drop this back down to one time very soon. Mommy and Daddy love seeing your face but really need some more sleep!

Clothes and Diaper Size: Wearing 6 month and some 9 months depending on the outfits and brands. Size 2 diapers. 

Diet: All formula.

Products We Love: Still loving the wubbanubs, Dr. Brown bottles, bumbo seat, and Twin Z pillow.

Milestones: You want to sit up sooo bad! You do little sit ups from your twin z pillow. You laugh, smile, and coo constantly. You also put weight on your feet and try to jump when we hold you. Basically you are ready to take off. Please slow down!

Likes: Sitting up in your bumbo or swing. Likes being held up so you can see around the room. You smile and try to jump. Anytime Mommy talks to you, you just start smiling! Melts my heart!

Dislikes: Laying down or being on your playmat (you must think you are too old for this now!). You also hate waiting to eat. When you're hungry.. you are hungry!

I love this stage. You boys are so much fun and your little personalities are really shining. We got the green light to start pureed avocados and sweet potatoes. I can't wait to see how this goes! Ha!
