Wine and Love vol. 4

Joining up with Nora again to share this week's wines and loves!

I will forewarn you I have a lot of wine this week.



- People who act like they know more about my kid than me or try to 'fix' our problems by doing things we've obviously tried already.  I'm not an idiot.

- The word dapple.  It annoys the crap out of me.

- The phrase like a champ.  "She eats like a champ." "He sleeps like a champ." REALLY? And how exactly do champs eat and sleep? Nails on a chalkboard.

- Letting your kid sleep in a few extra days before they go back to school.  YOU HAVE HAD 3 FULL MONTHS OFF. ALL OF JUNE, ALL OF JULY AND ALL OF AUGUST.  You should be caught up by now.

- My baby has decided that she likes to wake up frequently at night again and nurse a bit but then wakes up instantly when you set her down.  She also likes to party at 5 am.  She gets to go hang out in her swing when she does that.  Mama can not survive on hourly wake ups.

- The weather is freaking cold.  I AM NOT A FAN OF COLD. My toes are numb.  It is not time to retire my flip flops yet.  I haven't bought fall shoes yet!

- My house needs someone to clean it.

- Oh yeah.. also the phrase "dear readers" sooo annoying.

The sad thing is, I think I have more, but I forgot them.  I had a running list in my head yesterday.

Loves

- My class is filling up and I have a lot of cute/fun characters.  It's going to be a fun year.

- Planning for the first week of school.  Love looking at teaching blogs and getting ideas.  Even if my art abilities are sorely lacking.  Love preschool/kindergarten ideas!! My current search is on circle time ideas.

- Isla is smiling and laughing and talking up a storm.  Sadly, she likes to really do this at 5 am.  Girl needs to learn how to sleep in.

- I don't have to be at work until noon most days.  Wooot.

- Chili.  We've had it two weeks in a row and hmmmm I love it.

- Pinterest.  Getting so many ideas for the house/dinner.  I am going to start some decorating this fall.  Only took me 5 years in this house!

- College football.  LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE that it is back.

What's on your lists this week?
