Jake left to Las Vegas on a Wednesday. That evening was awful. Poop in tub, crying babies all night, feelings of despair.... the next morning all the girls had a bad cold with runny noses. YAY! You might be wondering why I would be excited about that... cause I could use benadryl GUILT FREE!!! During bath time each night I would dose the girls up and everyone would crash by 7:30 pm! :-)
Poor Siena threw up a bunch when I took her to her room. I put her on the floor while I cleaned up the mess. By the time I was done I looked over and she was snoring soundly!
Scarlett showed up in my room at 2 am with all her stuff (pillow, Marshall, unicorn star light, alarm clock, blanket). Against my better judgment I said she could come in my bed since Jake was gone. Nope, she wanted to sleep on my floor! She unrolled my yoga mat, set up shop, and fell asleep! Silly girl!
Scarlett was being silly, she said "Look at me, I'm going nuts!"
The babies FINALLY started holding their own bottles this week. I've been trying to get them to hold them for weeks. The magical day came!
Siena has been chewing her binky upsidedown like Jaide. Silly girls!
We went to Hob Lob. Scarlett got herself dressed. :-)
I realized something while Jake was gone: I can't be trusted to make good decisions on my own. We ate a McDonald's twice and each night I scarfed 3 ice cream bars. Ugh.

Love the shoes. 'Nuff said.
Yay for benadryl. I remember when an ER doc told me my oldest needed to have a dose of benadryl any time he got sick (he is a serial vomiter and would dehydrate...the doc said I needed to knock him out to stop the cycle). That was one of the best days EVER. For years any time anyone was sick, or even just overly cranky and making me think they were sick, I'd whip it out and stick 'em in bed early. Ah, benadryl, mother's best friend.
Love the outfit!
Sorry for the feelings of despair when Jake is gone. Hang in there. As the girls get older, the travel won't be so bad. But for now, take comfort in knowing that you're NOT alone, and you WILL get through it. Love you!!
She's so styling!!
No judgment here on the ice cream bars. Sometimes I feel like I deserve a treat each night and I have zero children.
