- Blakely has been giving me a run for my money lately (this week). She says "No, Mom!" in a super sassy tone to every. single. thing I ask of her. She wants to do everything "right now, Mom!" and anything I suggest we do is, "No! I don't want to". Talking back at the age of 2. Awesome. It is really wearing on my patience, today especially. It is 3:30 and I am ready for the wine!
- There may be some big things changing about Lonnie's job. We don't know yet and I am not sure when we will know. But change can be good so we are trying not to stress too much. And if the change isn't good I say we pack up and move to the beach, amiright?
- Speaking of beach, our annual beach trip is coming up. I've been busy planning and preparing for that. I am definitely looking forward to it but I am in no way ready to see myself in a bathing suit. Scary. Maybe I will fast for the next month. ;)
- We are going ahead with an IVF at our new clinic fairly soon. I really want to write a lengthy post about this but I just haven't been up for it. Weird. But anyway, it is happening and I have been planning and preparing for that as well. I will have to be away from home for over a week so there are a lot of things that I need to do for all the people who are going to be helping out with Blakely. I am anxious, nervous and very excited all at the same time.
- Recently I have become totally overwhelmed with all of the crap in our house. Like where did it all come from? I am in the mood to purge all of the things. Two days ago I cleaned out our upstairs bathroom. This is the bathroom Blakely and I use to shower/bathe and get ready each day. (Ha...as if I "get ready" each day) I threw away an entire trash bag of stuff. How does a bathroom have an entire trash bag worth of junk in it? Yesterday I started on the laundry room. You don't even want to know what it looks like. I am over all of this clutter!
After typing that out I guess I do have a lot on my mind! Anyway, I am still here and will hopefully get back to more frequent updates soon!
So many awesome things happening in this post! I get what you mean about not feeling blogging right now...I can't seem to finish a post right now either. All I can say is that there is LOTS of sass in my house as well from Aiden. We are working SO hard on manners right now, it's rough.
ReplyDeleteWow - you do have lots of things on your plate right now. I'll just chime in say that Taylor has been getting at least one time out a day recently for talking back to us. So - I get it. It stinks.
ReplyDeleteB and Lids sound very similar right now. Lots of back talk! Eeek! I am not ready for this. Luckily her teachers say she is (almost always) an angel at school. So excited for you moving ahead with IVF at the new clinic!!! Fingers are crossed! Also excited to hear about Lonnie's new job changes and hope it all works out for the very best.
ReplyDeleteBeach trip! Yay! I am sure you will have a blast :)
I hear you on the beach bit. It does something for the soul. Have a blast!
ReplyDeleteAnd IVF...I'm SO glad you are getting back in the saddle. Supporting you 100% and looking forward to that post. :)
Ugh, I so need a vacation right now, but I am going to have to wait until the end of June. I am super jealous that yours is coming up!
ReplyDeleteI can't make blogging happen either (obvisouly). I don't know if I feel like there is nothing note worthy going on or if things are just too busy. Oh well.
Thanks for the update on the IVF, I ahve been thinking about you and wondering if you were doing it now and that is why things ahve been so quiet. I am keeping you in my thoughts.
And I will mirror every comment above, Avery is full o sass right now. We are struggling less with no and more with I want I want I want. She used to be sooo good with manners and those have disappeared. Oh well, It is all a phase, I just hope this one passes quickly!
Somehow I missed this post! E is doing the same sassy back talking and it's driving me insane. She likes to order all of us around- do this mommy, get this daddy, don't do that Gavin. I'm so excited for your IVF, I know it's going to go so well!! Oh and if there is any room in your suitcase, I'm sneaking in there.
