CPS Request Paperwork Came in
I went out to check to mail today and honestly I wondered if CPS hasn't been called or if DH wasn't named the father in these reports since it has been more than a week and we still hadn't received anything in the mail from CPS to request the reports from BM's state. Well, I was wrong about that! We received five, yes FIVE request forms to fill out to request information. I literally am like shaking because BM has only lived in that state since June 2022 and already there were 5 reports against her to CPS.

Update I think I know why BM is so salty
BM in all of her many many paragraphs to DH only asking when he can call SD this weekend, BM said "I'd rather that than cps every 6 months and years of therapist." ... We called CPS on you once, almost 2 years ago now. If someone is calling CPS on you "every 6 months" it isn't us...
But BM must think it is us and that is why she is so angry and nasty right now.

BM is trying to blackmail DH now
After all the accusations and nasty comments BM made, DH told BM that SD also says things about her and her household that concern DH. Well now BM is in panic mood and avoided answering DH's question on calling SD, so after 3 more lengthy paragraphs of harassment from BM, all DH did was re-ask about calling SD and BM responded that she wasn't going to discuss him calling SD until he shared specifics of what issues SD has said about her and her household.

BM has been flying off the handle
Last night I had posted a blog which I had taken down because the real reason for the blog was not the topic specifically, but more about BM's flying off the handle and being unable to have a basic conversation. Since the beginning of this year, DH really tries his best to just remain factual, short and concise. Since SD is in therapy and we are unsure if SD is telling both households things that she believes will make the other parent happy, DH has been directing most concerns and not petty ones to the therapist. Or instead of asking BM, goes right to the source like SD's teacher.

SD's grades already
I want to first thank everyone that commented on my Fertility blog, I have been so swamped with work, family visit, etc. I will be commenting back on the comments in a little bit. SD started school 3 weeks ago and already has quite a few bad grades. Now that she is in 1st grade she will get real grades and they will be updated in the parent portal which is fantastic. SD has had two tests so far and received a D+ and a D- on those, has received 2 F's on homework, one in reading and one in math. The homework was turned in, but she got an F on them. On her classwork today she got a C.

Donate/Gifting
SD officially went home on Tuesday morning to BM's. A few days prior to SD's departure, DH and I went through SD's clothing/shoes and made 4 piles.
-Pile 1 - Save for SD's future visits, clothing that we knew 100% would fit and one pair of sneakers that were a little big we will see if fit at Christmas break
-Pile 2 - SD's clothes that fit her perfectly now, but won't fit next visit/weather appropriate to send with SD to BM's, plus one of her pairs of sneakers that fit perfect now

BM tried to get out of calling SD for her birthday
BM messaged yesterday evening asking if she could call SD for a few minutes for her birthday (today). DH told her that she could call SD tomorrow evening, but unsure of what time yet and would get back to her. On our way back from the waterpark, DH messaged BM saying SD would call her very soon (5 pm our time, 8 pm BM's time). BM messaged back and SD called her within 60 seconds of BM's message back, rather tried calling her. BM did not answer, SD tried calling BM a second time, no answer.

BM always misses one call a summer
BM scheduled with DH to call SD this morning at 9 am our time. BM arranged this on Thursday and looks like she even looked at the app yesterday afternoon since scheduling the call. Well it is now 1:40 pm so almost 5 hours and not a peep from BM.

Had no idea the Barbie movie was rated PG-13
DH and I bought tickets for the Barbie movie this morning before SD was awake. Then while waiting in line for coffee I got on my Facebook and saw on one of my mom's Facebook pages them talking about taking 5-8 year olds to see the PG-13 Barbie movie. So we looked up the parental guide and were like, uh no. SD is just turning 7 next weekend and think the references are too old for her.

Less than 2 weeks left of SD's summer visit
and now suddenly the past two days, SD's sister has been blowing up SD's phone (the one we got her) this week after almost a complete month of silence. According to SD, the sister got grounded and her phone taken away by step dad so the sister hasn't messaged SD on her phone since June 20th and yesterday started audio messaging SD on BM's phone. Npw, SD's sister is sending many audio messages a day to SD even when SD hasn't responded. Today the sister messaged asking SD to play Roblox with her.
