Josh comes upstairs yesterday.
"I just learned a very important lesson" he says.
"What's that?" I ask.
"Never tickle a little girl when she has no diaper on, 'cuz little girls tinkle when they giggle!"
It was pretty funny. Also funny (warning - a little too much information coming up) is when Jocelyn was nursing the other day and suddenly had to sneeze so released and sneezed a big ol' mouth of milk all over me! Then today Morgan came up to give me a kiss and instead sneezed allover me! Icky!! No wonder we're sick all the time!
Life is very busy here with me back at work and trying to get all the papers in order for our move and having to feed Jocelyn basically from when I get home until when we go to bed. (plus, while I'm typing this note Morgan is kissing me on the face over and over such that I can barely see the screen). 2 nights this week Jocelyn made it until at least 5am, but the others were between 2 and 3 and often she wants to get up and play instead of going back to sleep.
Pumping is still not going great and 8oz is pretty much the most I ever get - she eats at least 12oz and often more while I'm gone. ugh. I did some googling and found a technique called "power-pumping" that is supposed to keep your supply up for ladies who do a lot of pumping, so I'm going to start giving that a try.
Jocelyn is starting to giggle but things that make her giggle are rather unpredictable and not consistent, so a tickle spot that works one day doesn't work the next day.
**time out to tend to the baby and see why Morgan is so quiet**
Timothy and Josh are at Timothy's baseball game this morning. Unfortunately, all the games and practices directly conflict with karate, so he only got to go to karate once this week (did I mention he recently moved up to a purple belt?).
As if I'm not having enough trouble keeping up - every day in June is some kind of theme day for the 1st grade. So one day he has to wear his pajamas and one day he has to wear a certain color or dress backwards etc etc. He was practicing for "note day" the other day where no talking will be allowed - only note writing. Cute.
Morgan's POP graduation is June 2nd so that should be entertaining as always. Miss Nancy wrote that he was doing well with the songs but that she had mistakenly placed him between two rather loud singers and he spent a lot of time with his ears covered so she was going to move him.
June 3rd I'm giving an hour presentation to roughly 50 finance employees which, surprisingly enough, I'm kind of looking forward to. I've gotten the CFO and 2 Regional Managers to volunteer to be my jeopardy contestants and I'm going to structure the first half of the presentation sort of like Jeopardy. I'm thinking of giving the answers (or questions as the case may be) to the Regional Managers ahead of time and have them yell them out in unison before the CFO has a chance to even think. Hee hee. The guy that called to see if I would present said the managers all voted for who they wanted to hear from and I came in 3rd behind the segment head and the CFO (and in front of my boss who carne in 4th - hee hee again!). I'm actually not even the resident expert on the subject I'm presenting on, but the guy said I was the only one that could explain it such that people understand. Yay for me!
Timothy just came in and informed me that we get to sell raffle tickets for baseball. I don't know who he's calling we!! Anyone want to buy some raffle tickets? Ugh.
Our washing machine died this week so we've got several days worth of dirty laundry cluttering any potential sq ft of clean floor. Josh is off to the Laundromat today. Good thing we get a new set with the house and the buyers didn't want these ones!
We got an email from our buyers this week thanking us for getting all the work done on the house. I guess that's good? Sort of makes me think I shouldn't have been so quick to take care of things! Ah well, it should keep them from complaining about everything else that we're hoping will wait to fall apart until we're out of here.
Well, I have 45 empty boxes and a house full of crap, so I must go get something done. First up is the waist high pile of clean laundry sitting in front of Jocelyn's dresser. Jocelyn desperately needs an exersaucer but I just can't buy one more thing just to pay someone to move it, so it'll have to wait until July. She's getting pretty bored though!
Hope everyone is enjoying the rainy cloudy cold weekend!
