well i am sad and happy to say that i missed the chat session last night. I just have to tell you that my friend Mindy is the BEST !! She came over and watched Payton while i went shopping at the garden center and Albertsons. Although i was only gone for 30 minutes she did my dishes while i was gone. We got take out from Chevy's and watched Sideways. After Payton went to sleep we hopped in the hot tub. Whooo Hoooo, Payton slept like poo but it was nicer to deal with having another adult around. Holding my breath now cause he went down at 11 and i am hoping he is NOT gonna do the 2 hr thing again tonight !! See you all when i am up next feeding !!

BTW loved the pics !!!

xoxo Chels

Morning Mommies!!!

Chelsea sounds like a good night for you!!! Hope it continued

Well, I go back to work today. I'm nervous as I don't know if I'll get more attitude from my boss now or if she'll actually think about the things I told her and try to make things right. OK nevermind, while putting that in type I see how silly that even sounds LOL. I have a feeling it'll be attitude or false concern as it always is....so I'll simply do my job and keep my distance...and I'm definitely only saying what is necessary in that place.

Hubby's faxing my resume to 2 different jobs t'nite from his job...so we'll see what happens.

Scale still standing at 278-279. But I gave in to the stress yesterday and ate pizza.

I just couldn't handle it anymore. Back on plan today!

Have a great day ladies...I need to jump in the shower before Elana wakes as Knowles won't get home from work until 10 mins. before I have to go.

chels_hoff · 06-23-2005, 04:19 AM

mornin'

chels_hoff · 06-23-2005, 04:26 AM

hope your boss behaves herself, do I need to fly out there and have a chat with her ??? So 4 hrs is WAY better than 2.... was hoping for 6 but maybe this next round ??!! gonna go watch my TiVo'ed soaps for the last half of his feeding. Hope I don’t make it back on till 10'ish.

Friendship · 06-23-2005, 06:17 AM

Chels- Well, 4 hour is progress!!!! I hope Payton is a good little boy today for you! That was nice of your friend to come over and do that...I think you needed some "you" time, even if it was for 30 mins.

Chelle- Don't worry about the scale, you had a VERY rough couple of days emotionally. You will see it start to slide down again!

B- LC Lemon PoppySead Muffin
L- Salad, SF Jello
D- Wings w/Veggies

Well, I have a bunch to do at work, but you know I'll be on and off of here. If you decide to do another Mega thread, you might loose me someplace though as I don't have that much time!

Reposting Hunter's new achievment:

Mommy look, I can climb!

Dar20 · 06-23-2005, 06:32 AM

Just a quick hello then I'm off to do some work.

Chels, I was hoping for some input when you have a chance on the pics I posted late last night.

I can barely remember what I posted last night, I was so tired and it went so fast, but I know I posted pictures somewhere in there! I'm pretty sure they're on pages 11 & 12.

Stats yesterday: 1300 cals, 18 carbs, 6 fiber (forgot my fiber supplement, but I already had it today!)

I had to have some caffienated tea this morning. I usually don't, but I'm dragging. I had trouble getting back to sleep after Alison woke up at 3:30.

Hi, everyone else... bbl.

karatejen · 06-23-2005, 06:55 AM

chels~4 hours? That's great. Murphy hasn't slept 4 hours in a row for at least 6 weeks or more. Well, I take that back. He hasn't slept for 4 hours in a row in his crib. If I put him into bed with me, he might go 4 hours.

I really thought that as he got older he would sleep longer, but we seem to be going in the wrong direction. He goes down between 8 - 8:30pm and is waking to nurse by 11:30pm

.

Dar~ you gonna actually do some work today

.

Chelle~hope your today goes well. That is the same attitude I have with my boss. Just come in, do my job, and have as little interaction with him as possible. Can you believe I've been back to work for 5 months, pump 3 times a day, and he doesn't even have a clue that I do? Which is actually fine with me.

Friendship · 06-23-2005, 07:07 AM

KJen- I wish my boss wouldn't have paid attention. I think sometimes she used to time how long I was in the lactation room......like I had any control on if it took me 10 mins or 20 mins.

TRACY2 · 06-23-2005, 07:57 AM

HI ladies!

Chelle- good luck today. Don't take any crap.
Don't blame ya on the stress eating. I do it too sometimes. Can't be good all the time ya know.
Love the new avi!

Melissa- what cute pics! I do hate it though when they start climbing. Katie figured out how to climb onto the sofa and last night was one of those nights she fell off before anyone could catch her

I swear it happens soooooooooo fast. I was actually sitting beside her.
Fortunatly she landed on her pillow on the floor.

.... wonder if I can put a helmet on her?

Chels- so glad you got some sleep! See, we all told you it wouldn't be bad forever!

Hi Dar!

KJen- I bet he is hitting a growth spurt. Needs more mama milk to keep him going

You will get that sleep, promise.

K- I actually have to work today too. Imagine that

Hi Sarah, Vanessa, Cynthia, Emily and anyone else stopping in today.

Anyone know how many shots babies get at their one year checkup?
Katie has her appt tomorrow

Friendship · 06-23-2005, 08:02 AM

Tracey- Hunter got 2 shots at his 12 month checkup.

Dar20 · 06-23-2005, 08:07 AM

My friend's baby got 4 shots.

TRACY2 · 06-23-2005, 08:11 AM

no way am I letting her get 4.
Dar, maybe your friends baby was behind on his vax schedule?

Two is bad enough.

They are also going to send us for an x-ray of that knot behind her ear. I hope its just a bone spur and not a lymph node.

Dar20 · 06-23-2005, 08:15 AM

Alison got four at her 2 month check-up! But, she was a trooper.

Mrs Sarah · 06-23-2005, 08:32 AM

Morning beauties!!

Man, the thread yesterday was some kind of record! I'm sorry I missed it... I was spending time with Mason.

It is so nice to have him home in the evenings. Today is his last day for the week, so he'll FINALLY get some days off. He's super excited.

I think Tanner is cutting ANOTHER tooth. Gosh, we got no break between this one and the one that just came through.

I'm holding the same weight today. Hopefully a whoosh is on the way. Today is my last day for taking the Prednisone, so hopefully that will help. Today is cardio day for me.

B- Waffles, pb, sf syrup, turkey bacon

S- BFL Bar

L- Leftover chicken pasta primavera

S- SF pudding, lf string cheese

D- Turkey chili

S- Skinny cow ice cream

All of the pictures last night were wonderful! I love the b/w's.

I took some new ones of Tanner last night taking his first bath in the kitchen sink.

So cute! I'll have to try and upload them tonight.

Chelsea: Glad Payton slept for awhile, that's great!

Chelle: Good luck today, I hope things aren't tense!

Melissa: Gosh, Hunter is getting to be so grown up! Love the toy box!

Dar: Good job on your cals yesterday, you are doing awesome!

Tracy: I hope the 1 yr appt tomorrow goes well!

Cyn: HI!

LivnLGNOmore · 06-23-2005, 08:36 AM

Hello out there...

Not much going on today, gonna try to stay away from this thing (ya right) and get my house spotless (ya right again). It's only me and my kiddos today

Mark will be late fishing today so I can finally get lots done. I do well with laundry/dishes durring the week when the other kids are here, but that's about all, today I can really clean. our restaurant opens full time next week so I'll be there M-W-F day, and F night, and when ever I fill in for others. So I'll only have Connor, and Jamie on tuesday from now on.

Chels ~ We told ya it would get better! I remember after Elliott just going to the post office which took all of 15 minutes was like a mini vacation, at the time I felt bad wanting to get away from my baby, but it really made me better in the long run. How was the movie by the way?

Chelle ~ Hope you have a good day back in the ring, you've got bigger b@lls then me, don't take any crap from anyone! I'm sure now that your back on track that pizza will dissapear in no time. Hopegully your resume falls into the right hands

Melissa ~ How are those muffins? I think I have a bag of them here somewhere I might try. Have a great day at work

Dar ~ Hope you have a good day too, sorry you had trouble sleeping, I do that a lot too. Sometimes the babies sleeep better then us

KJen ~ Sounds like another spurt, you'll get some sleep soon

Tracy ~ We seriously thought about a helmet with Elliott when he went through his head-butting stage. Lucky for him he has a hard head

Not sure about the shots, Judson had 4 at his 2 month appointment, Elliott, and I were more upset then he was

Cyn ~ Good morning hope things start to look up for you and your family

We're hear if you need us

Lexi has been climbing and stuff on the couches but has yet to "fall" I get so paranoid...but it is bound to happen one time or another. They move fast so don't beat yourself up! A helmet would be a great idea!
