So we had a nice little chat about addison not drinking bottle anymore. Her Dr said she is not concerned about the amount of formula she is taking in since we are doing the baby led weaning. She said she is clearly eating balanced meals and is healthy. She said to give her formula in sippy cups and let her take it as she wants it. So I told you I did that this morning and she drank about 4 oz. She had another 16+ oz out of a sippy cup before the day was over. That is fantastic!
She is 16.13 lbs and 29 inches even. So her growth slowed down a little and her weight increased. She is 26% for weight now, and 89% for her height. She is still super tall. I did get a little upset there today though and I tried to argue it but eventually just gave in. She got her Hep B shot at her 6 month appointment. Well her 6 month appointment was like 2 days before she was actually 6 months. So the department of health said her 6 month shot for Hep B doesn't count and she had to have it again. WHAT!?! She got it...who cares it was 2 days before she was actually 6 months...that does not negate the fact that you stuck a needle in her leg. I was pissed...her Dr talked me down a little but I was not happy she had to get another shot.
So Lily's wort I'm convinced just doesn't want to die. It is huge. She had it frozen again. She said it hurt really bad this time. She has to go back AGAIN in 3 weeks to have it done again. Most expensive wort ever!
Other than that today was uneventful. I took a video of Christian reading to send you but FB told me it was too long. So I need to edit it. He is doing so good. I cannot believe how well he reads...remember in August when school started he couldn't read at all and now he is reading chapter books.
Well I hope you have a great day! I love you! Good night

Grillin
Guess who learned how to use the grill tonight! That's right, me! Mike showed me how to turn it on, and I did it...all by myself. I only grilled hot dogs, but still....gotta start somewhere right?
So today was very busy. I feel like we were nonstop from the time we got up until we went to bed. But it was a good day. The kids were good. Lily passed out at the game in grass and slept through almost the entire thing. I learned today in 7u that we do not play an hour...we play 6 innings. WHAT! I did not plan for that! I planned for an hour. Mason got into a fight with another little boy at the park. Well really I think him and another little boy started playing too rough and Mason got the short end of the stick. I turned around and saw the little boy slam Mason down into the ground. I freaked. Sat Mase by my mom took Elijah to his mom, told her I didn't want Mason near him again today. Then later they were together again and she told me. So I said yea I saw them so if he gets roughed up again then he should have listened to me. But he didn't, they played nice. So it worked out.
So Christian has developed a very poor attitude and I am not sure what to do about it. I understand he was frustrated that he struck out, but how can I get him to have constructive frustrations? He threw his bat up against the fence. I made him go back and get it. I get that he is upset...that is normal, it is not normal to throw your bat and I won't tolerate it. I mean he had an ok day, not a standing out day. But he wasn't awful either. He covered his bases, he hit...he got out. But he advanced the lead off runner 2 bases and we scored. We ended up winning by 1 point...so that counts. He didn't see that until I explained it to him. I just don't get it. He has never had a bad attitude like this.
Well I hope you have a good day! I love you. Good night

out of cumin?
No way! Not possible! How could we run out of cumin?! Don't we always keep a back up supply? Um nope. We are definitely out of cumin. We made chili today and that's when I made that discovery.
So opening night was fun today! It was cold. But we got to leave as soon as our kids were announced. Addison cried through the whole thing. That was no fun. She decided on her own she was going to skip her afternoon nap and we all got to pay for it. She was in her bed for her afternoon she just never went to sleep. She laid in there playing. So this evening was awful!
So Jacey came over tonight and we had an impromptu craft night. We made dug out hangers for tomorrow. So all I need to do is get some D rings or something to hold my markers and we are good.
I am pretty excited for tomorrow, just so you know! Tomorrow feels like Christmas morning for me! LOL
I have your shirt to send you. I promise I will get it all in the mail to you next week! Promise!
Well I hope you have a good day and I will try and get lots of pictures of everyone for you tomorrow. Mason and Christian played really well together alone today. I love you! Have a good day. Good night.

busy!
If this is any clue as to how busy I am going to be when I go back to work. I am going to be so burnt out when you get home it is not even funny!
So I made it a family affair when I went to the credit union to do my paperwork. Addison came with me. Mom came with me. Mom sat in the lobby with the security guard, Addison and I went into HR. So Tracy played with the baby while I did all my paperwork. She came in the office and said Hi to me and how happy she was that I was back. Then she says "AND! Perfect timing too. We just enrolled in the First Coast games. We are going football AND softball this year I am going to go ahead and register you ok?" LOL...o ok. Glad you guys are also profiting on my athletic abilities.
After the credit union I took mom to the orthopedic surgeon for her knee. They thing it is just severe arthritis and bone spurs in her knee. But she has to go have a MRI done to rule out a meniscus tear. So she is not completely out of the woods. But she said it is not as bad as it was earlier. So hopefully it is just arthritis. But then that will pain she has to live with for forever...so IDK what I should hope her diagnosis is. I mean she already has the arthritis and bone spurs in her knee. So should I just hope she doesn't have another ailment to add to it? IDK.
Then I brought mom back to her car, went and got the kids. Went to Christian's doctors office. Got home in just enough time for Lily to complete her homework. Went to church. Went to the park to collect more raffle stuff. Back to the church to get the kids and help in the nursery and now I am home....finally. I am so tired I just want to go to bed.
Check that out though! Uniforms look good this year huh.
I missed talking to you today. I kept hoping you would call. But o well. I hope you had a good day. I love you.
Good night

March 7
I'm sorry!
Yup that's how we get started today.
So I finished the taxes. I changed the phone number at the end to mine, since 1) it had your old # and 2) if they needed something they couldn't call you anyway. Soooooo, I get a text while we are at dance "your taxes have been rejected by the irs. check your email for more info." So when we got home I opened the email. There is no way I would have been able to rest without knowing how to fix that. So anyway...it was because it still had C on there as dependent-not claiming, or however it was. When he should have just been a non-dependent. So I fixed it and resubmitted it. But sorry, I opened your email.
So that was proud moment for me. YAY my boy! Lol
Well, I am going in to the credit union tomorrow to sign all my new hire paperwork. AHHHHH!
I officially start March 7th. So I have 2 more weeks home with my babies and then back to work I go. Well not even 2 more weeks. Less than 2 weeks.
O get this! I had a mini meltdown today. So I call my mom to tell her March 7th she needs to be available to watch the kids. I call her and she can't talk because someone is helping her into the house. She hurt herself at the Y today playing pickleball and can hardly walk. WHAT!!!!!!! How are you supposed to watch Addison if you cannot walk. UGH! So then I had an extremely selfish moment and did not even ask her if she was ok. I told her she needed to figure out what was going on so I could make other plans for the kids. What is wrong with me?! What kind of heartless person does that?! Anyway, so I am taking her to an orthopedic surgeon tomorrow and if it is bad and she cannot keep the kids Addison has to go to daycare. I lost my head...completely lost it! I don't want her to go to daycare. But then I felt really guilty that I was so selfish when mom is the one that is hurt. So I just need you to pray that she is ok and it is nothing serious so Addison doesn't have to go to daycare. Because that will make my first day to work even harder.
Alright well I need to go to bed. I have to seriously adult tomorrow. Have a good day. I love you so much! Good night

bust
well that's what tonight has turned out to be. I was sitting here watching a show and the internet stopped working, go figure. So I'm going to bed...nope! I told you I would finish the taxes. So I go upstairs and reset the router. Crap! I forgot to call the bank for my balance. UGH! So...no taxes tonight. Sorry. Tomorrow for sure.
So I don't know what Christian's deal is at practice because...homeboy CAN throw...GOOD! I forced him to play catch with me to work on his throws. He only had a few issues. But if he just focuses on what he is doing he throws very good!
So I realized tonight while making the menu for the week that I haven't gone to BJ's this month. We have no chicken. AHHHHHH! Well...we have chicken now, after I went grocery shopping. But crap! Now I have to go to BJ's soon. Mom made the comment about it too. "You always have snack foods here. Your pantry is looking so empty" it's not empty :( you just actually have to cook the foods you want LOL
Plus the whole time my mom was here all she drank was soda, and apparently in my drugged state I repeatedly nagged her about how unhealthy all those sodas were, she needs water, and how I'm going to stop keeping sodas in the house if that's all she is going to drink. LOL.
Apparently I'm rude when I'm on narcotics.
So I have definitely created a tiny little monster. Christian asks to sleep with me every single night. Every night. He slept with me last night, and begged until the very last second to sleep with me tonight. But I didn't let him. He does not like going to bed alone. Even when he does sleep with me he is very upset that I do not go to bed the same time he does. I am not sure what has changed with him. I kind of like it though and I totally would let him sleep with me every night if I knew it wouldn't hurt Lily's feelings. But it would and I have to be fair.
Ok well have a good day! I love you so much! Good night

I am ashamed
In two days I have eaten all of the ice cream in the freezer. All of it. I am ashamed. LOL.
I got my new carrier. I love it! Absolutely love it! Love everything about it! It is so soft and snug. It still doesn't feel normal to back carry. Addison seems more comfortable in this on my back than the Ergo but it still felt weird to me. Maybe I'll get used to it. I have to find a way to keep her from pulling my hair while she is back there.
It is so very soft though. I love it so very much!
Omg! So the kids came home and Christian ofcourse was being so sweet. Can I get you anything? Are you feeling ok? And then he does it...he walks right up to me and presses the side of my face so hard. He didn't mean to hurt me but I thought I was going to cry. He felt bad after the fact. He said "it's so fat I didn't think you'd feel it"
Dang kid...hurt me twice :'(
Anyway, nothing else exciting over here to report.
The kids are home...yay!
I love you! have a great day! Good night.
