Re: FFFC
I think I spend as much money on decorations for Aiden's party as I did on his birthday presents.
And I think only one (maybe 2) other kids will be at his party.
I feel bad for him even though he wont even notice or care.
(I know thoes arn't really flamable, but I thought I would change it up from my normaly 'I can't stand my H' posts haha)
I love my crazy child!
My Bio
I am so sick of having headaches! I feel terrbible taking Tylenol and being pregnant. I know I am able to take that but I should not have to take it every day!
I have an outside cat that had three kittens and I decided to feed them, well not the momma has had another set of kittens and it looks like she is pregnant again. I called to take her in to get fixed and the place doesnt have any appointments this weekend and we are busy the next two. Uggg I think its time to pack them all up and take them to the Humane Society. Besides the fact I cannot pet the mom cat anymore since I am pregant its useless to have her around.
We are supposed to get together with my DH's friend tonight and he has yet to call and make plans as to where we are going and what time. Some times people can be so inconsiderate.
Man, I had a bunch today. Yikes!
Raising hand! I did the same thing last night. I stayed awake but told DH I was getting in bed at 9 and was probably asleep by 9:30. Uggg I am boring!
I'm so over MIL and her drama. It's always something and she always has all kinds of demands for my H. As if we aren't busy. He's working 70 hours and we have a baby that could show up any time. She called this morning and wants to sell her car, but wants DH to take it to meet potential buyers when they want to see it.
Between her and all the other people that are claiming they want to come "help" take care of the baby, I want to keep it a secret for as long as I can when she's born. I know I can't do that, but I just want time with my husband and my baby! I don't need help taking care of my baby! If you want to help, leave me alone!
Enjoy it while you can!! I long for the days of being able to fall asleep early and stay asleep!
That's fair!

So don't tell anyone. Hurt a few feelings. It's not a big deal, honestly. IMO, you have to do what's right for you, your H and the baby. And if being stressed beyond belief over these things is driving you nuts, quit stressing over it and keep quiet. No one will know unless you tell them.
When I went into labor, we told our BFFs, my mom (b/c she was already here) and dad (who had no intention of coming to visit). We waited to call everyone else. And I even told people NOT to come to the hospital or our house (like my sister and BIL, who work my nerves like no one else can).
Take this time and experience to be selfish. It only happens once, so please make sure it is the experience YOU want to have with your husband and sweet little baby.
I'm not sure if this would help (especially since my headaches have not been too terrible) but one of the vitamin guys said that too little magnesium can make headaches worse. I know I started eating more foods rich in Mg, I felt better. Spinach, black beans, broccoli, and some seeds I think, in case you don't have any aversions to those foods. My LOs have been craving spinach and apples, so I think that might be helping me. Feel better soon/now!
I say keep it a secret for an hour or two. I had to explain to my sister (who was Pi$$ed off at my due date because she, BIL, and one of our best friends will be on a cruise on my EDD) that 1) babies, esp. twins, rarely come on their due date and 2) God willing, they will be here when you get back from Alaska. Your MIL and everyone will get to see baby in YOUR time. YOU and YOUR H need to take a few hours and get to know her a little bit, then everyone else can meet her.
With everything else, I'd have to say no. It'll be hard at first to tell her no, but maybe if you explain to her that with the baby coming at any time that you have things that need to be taken care of at your house and maybe suggest that she put the car on Craigslist or in a free weekly. Besides, I was always under the impression that when you were interested in buying a car the buyer goes to the seller, thus avoided extra mileage, possible damage to the vehicle and what not.
I feel ya girl, we get pro football players all the time at the bar and when it comes time for the check they aren't even kidding when they say "you got this, right?", of course meaning the company, not me personally, but still. Seriously, douchbag, I don't even get a discount here on my days off and I'm basically a slave to the man, and you are paid millions a year. PAY YOUR BILL.
Thanks for the advice! I will definitely check into foods that are righ in MG. Hope this helps.
I started looking for a new puppy on petfinder & adoptapet. I feel really guilty.
I'm certainly not trying to replace her, but I hate having nothing to care for or a happy wagging tail when I walk in the door. I've had a dog my entire life. Taking it out, feeding it, etc is part of my daily routine. My house feels so empty now. And nothing makes you feel better than the unconditional love of a dog and a slobbery kiss.
Pet people, I know you understand. Non pet-people, it must sound strange to you.
MH also thinks it's strange that I haven't removed any of her things. But I figured if we're going to get another dog, why bother.
Aww
I completely understand. I've always said that if I lost a dog I would have to get a new one immediately so I would have a friend to pet. There are lots of different opinions on how soon is "too soon". I believe it is whatever works for you. I definately say go for it, there are lots of dogs out there that would be so lucky to have you as an owner!
I'm honestly not trying to replace her. That would be impossible. I tried borrowing my friend's dogs, just for some temporary companionship (they wouldn't give them up).
I would definitely get a shelter/rescue pet. More than likely it won't be any particular breed (I like them better that way). My requirements are that it'll be medium-large size. Lady was 54lbs, that was a good size. The dog also needs to bark like a 'real' dog, a deep Woof instead of a yip.
My house is a disaster. I have spent the last three days reorganizing. Which means that I pulled everything out of the closets and I have yet to get everything back in order
I seemed like a good idea when I started but now I am going bonkers because my house looks like a war zone.
Plus it doesn't help having a little "helper" behind me making a mess. She's cute but can make a HUGE mess!
Oh and I have been on the South Beach Diet for the last three days and I am a total biitch. I just want an effing candy bar
Baby Macy is here!
12/09 - Macy (daughter) | 4/10 - Began TTC Baby #2 | 12/10 - Chemical Pregnancy | 1/12 - Miscarriage at 14 weeks | DX - PCOS & Hyperthyroidism
Wait -- where did she get this card? I think I need one. My daddy is a doctor and I never got this card.
One time when I was in 6th or 7th grade, he wouldn't give me lunch money when I lost my stupid card thing for the hot lunches. He said "that's what I pay your mother child support for."
My silly Lily is almost 4.
OMG FOR SHAME!! geez Dad, have a heart!
I am kind of annoyed with DS1's preschool. The director decided since there was space in the 2 year old room she would start moving kids up to the next room. We have been there since the day she opened her doors and have never missed or had late payment. I never complain about anything. But I am on fire....
I approached her about when she was planning on the moves. She mentioned there was one child older than P and he would get the first spot. Okay, completely understand. Then she proceeds to tell me that there is another child that is slightly younger than my son, but his Mom is really pushing for the spot so he will get the other one. What????????? Well, I wasn't the only parent who was upset with this decision. Now she is apologetic and saying she wishes she just left all the 2 year olds in the 1 year old room. Duh...but there would be an absolute outrage is she pulled the other 2 back. Now my son and two other boys are in the 1 year old room with "babies" that just turned one!!! She told us there at this point there really isn't a chance for him to move unless someone drops out or moves. So basically, P will be there until June and when we return in August he can move up to the two year old room. Ugh!! I would love to pull him out but I know it is a great school and most importantly he loves his teachers, friends, and feels safe there. With all the change he has had over the past 6 months I can't do that to him.
I am a very laid back Mommy, but I learned my lesson when it comes to my kid I will speak up like the other pushy mother did to make sure my son gets what he deserves.
I just wolfed down a pack of peanut M&M's. The way I think about it is I had a salad for lunch so I can have some M&M's. haha
