Dear Internet, please forgive the absolutely dismal quality of photos this week. Caroline was sick Monday and Tuesday, which overlapped with me being sick Tuesday through Saturday. I pretty much let the kids fend for themselves. The only thing we managed to do the second half of the week was swim class, and that’s only because the super warm, humid pool helped with my horrible hacking cough. Thank goodness I’m back to about 90% healthy and the house is back to the regular level of disaster instead of the kind where it looks like it’s been hit by a tornado.
Sunday:
A Lego set that comes with four sharks is an excellent set
FANCY HAIR for our photo shoot
The children barely fit with all those stupid balloons
Monday:
He knows I’m going to take it away
Trying to cheer up his sister
The super creepy turkey vultures are back
Tuesday:
Linc pulled her hair, then lay like this for 15 minutes to apologize
This cat is always judging me.
New earrings from RocksBox are A++
Wednesday:
Sure, do whatever, as long as I can monitor you from the couch
Pathetic
Linc is also judging me
Thursday:
Sharing toys with sick mommy
He went down for nap without nursing for the first time for me.
That drowned rat look is very nice
Friday:
World, please send help, I’m locked in this house with a useless mother
Thank goodness for naps
From the tap is better than from the tub
Saturday:
24 Sharpies is exactly what the baby needs
Caroline made a dreamcatcher at school, Linc decided it’s a hat
Linc also decided HE is a hat.
Hopefully, the last of this awful cough clears up soon and I can get back to just being normal pregnant levels of uncomfortable. That sounds delightful.

The weather this week was so up and down and up and down that I’m pretty sure it’s given me a horrible head cold. Which is just what I needed to start another busy week.
Sunday:
Friends at the seaport
Practicing her deck swabbing
Stole his sister’s soda and is being super casual about it
Monday:
Warm enough to venture outside
Dress up is his new favorite
This is very helpful while I am cooking
Tuesday:
I’m sure this is an artistic choice, but it looks like this wall is about to collapse
I spent $5 on this but I still don’t understand how it works
Tired baby
Wednesday:
Gross outside, tropical inside swim.
Very foggy day in Rhode Island
Jango Fett does ballet
Thursday:
I think Evan’s face is more accurate
He found where the cat sleeps
I dumped out my purse and this is what was in it.
Friday:
Really pissed I woke him up
I did this.
BABY CUDDLESSSSSSSS
Saturday:
Coolest kids on the block
The aquarium is still our favorite
It’s a literally Shark Tank
I was going to watch the Oscars tonight but it seems like taking something for my headache and going to bed at 9 pm is a better idea. Because it turns out that Monday is still going to happen tomorrow and I have to get these kids up and fed and pack their lunches even if I don’t feel great. It’s total bullshit.
This week I also need to start getting our summer schedule sorted out, since it’s almost March and I’m already getting second reminder registration forms. WHAT KIND OF MOTHER AM I EVEN?! How come I don’t know where my kids will be the first week of August?! What am I planning to do, just let them stay HOME and watch TV??? They’ll never get into college.

This was one of those weeks where when I look back at the pictures from Monday I can’t believe it was less than a week ago. The long weekend on top of all our regular activities plus a busy work week for E meant I spent a lot of time in the car, a lot of time with all 3 kids and a lot of time wearing leggings.
Sunday:
That looks comfortable.
NOT OK
Happy Valentine’s Day?
Monday:
I abandoned my children to video games
…and whatever this mess is…
…to take VERY IMPORTANT PICTURES
Tuesday:
Of course the morning we have plans is the morning he sleeps in
They are way too big for that cart
I let him play on my phone during Caroline’s ballet and found a dozen of these.
Wednesday:
Yes dear, your toes are very dirty, I see.
KEEP DOING THIS
I swear I feed him, he just really wanted cake
Thursday:
That’s his eating seat
SNUGGLES
Check out my leggings I will never wear again because I ripped a HUGE HOLE across the butt. In public.
Friday:
My toddler + extra ginger toddler = a game where they jump off chairs
Linc INSISTED he needed to wear these boots to the grocery store
He also insisted on helping me drive while we waited outside Caroline’s piano lesson
Saturday:
Just when I was ready to pass on the trains, everyone loves trains again
New hair color
NEW FIT BIT!!! All my walking COUNTS AGAIN!!
I swear I washed those leggings in between days I wore them. I also washed that grey sweater. Twice. Because I’m wearing it again right now. I’m pretty ready for spring so I can start wearing dresses with cardigans again instead of JUST leggings. Although I’ll probably still wear a lot of leggings.

This morning when I got in the car to go to a session the temperature said -3. Not 3 degrees below freezing, 3 degrees below ZERO. It barely warmed up during the day. Our furnace is struggling to keep the house warm and I really wish I never had to leave my couch nest of blankets ever again.
Sunday:
Nursing break during Mardi Gras Sunday at church
Evan really liked the parade
Visiting a friend on the maternity ward
Monday:
Checking out the snow
THREE CHILDREN playing trains together
Linc feels the same way I do about crunches
Tuesday:
Eating candy because his mother is a sucker
He says he’s ready to go play in the snow
No problem loving his own face
Wednesday:
I DON’T CARE IF IT’S SNOWING GO TO SCHOOL
There WAS a cat sitting back there
*ALMOST* 100% on the sight words!
Thursday:
BRB Googling flights to Hawaii
Naptime friends
Celebrating Daddy’s birthday
Friday:
Lincoln-date at the carousel
And at Red Robin (YUM)
And then my Valentine’s came early!
Saturday:
God Bless iPads so parents can sleep in
These two *heart eyes*
And these two!
LOOK AT THAT I GOT MY IPHONE POST DONE ON SUNDAY. I’m very impressed with myself. Now I’m going to go find some more blankets to hide under because it’s negative something degrees again and I do not like it. Even my winter layer isn’t keeping me warm anymore. Maybe I should eat another piece of that leftover cake from E’s birthday.
Because that seems like a much nicer option than cleaning up the house the kids trashed when they still have two days before they go back to school.

It’s 60+ degrees today. I went on a lovely 4 mile hike by the ocean with a fr iend this morning without a coat – although the baby on my back counts as an extra layer. It was SO NICE to be outside and feeling like spring is on the way. Even if we get 5 feet of snow this month at least we’re not suffering through another endlessly cold, dark, snowy winter.
Sunday:
Three little troublemakers
The sun made it less cold
Photo session heaven
Monday:
READY TO GO
Now I’m nursing a baby AND a stuffed dog all the time
“My favorite part of my neighborhood is DD” That’s Dunkin Donuts. Mama’s so proud.
Tuesday:
Poppy & Rye *heart eyes forever*
Guilty face
This is the freestyle portion of ballet
Wednesday:
Skeptical of swim, as always
Box = more entertaining than thousands of real toys
Family Insanity Workout Time
Thursday:
LASHES
Bird stalking
Fancy hairs
Friday:
So cooperative and good at sharing, toddlers are
The number of things he insists on sleeping with keeps growing
Blowing stuff up while Caroline learns piano
Saturday:
Basketball poses
Babywearing in the Navy-themed Tula at the Navy-themed museum
THE GIRL’S TEAM WON BOTH GAMES IT’S A HAND AND FOOT MIRACLE
I’m afraid I’ve lost the ability to speak English. No one in my family seems to understand me when I talk, so that seems like the most likely explanation. Either that or they’ve all suddenly gone deaf, which might ALSO explain why they are SO LOUD ALL THE TIME.
That’s probably what happened.
