  • A free education or house sounds just fine to me.
  • I am so sorry this is happening to you. I pray everything turns out ok.
  • Dear 10 month sleep regression, teething, growth spurt, whatever you are, Please pass quickly. I am not sure how many nights I can last without going to bed until 3-4 am. Let my baby sleep so I can sleep too. Signed, An overly tired mommy Dear flu, Leave my husband alone. This is the 4th day he has it and I just want him…
  • We started watching True Detective on HBO. We also went on a GPS scavengar hunt and found a new park to explore. It had driving trails, but suggested having a 4x4 because you could get stuck if you sink into the mud. We saw a lot of deer which are rare in FL. We wikk definitely be going back.
  • @shellmaneth Thank you so much for sharing what you are doing with Lily. It really helps to hear what is going on with other parents and their babies. I tried cry it out for a nap time checking on Abby in 5 minute intervals, but it was torture for both of us, so that was the only time. I decided to just continue rocking…

  • Where's yours? ;) Sometimes I feel ilke I don't know what I am doing parenting wise. I still rock Abby to sleep the majority of the time. I know some babies can be laid down drowsy, but awake. Not Abby. Whenever I try to lay her in the crib awake it is a big no go. She still wakes up once or twice a night. I started her on…

  • I am truly sorry about all your troubles the fibroid is giving you. I hope you get to see the specialist soon and he/she can give you some answers soon. Was your fibroid bothering you? Did it shrink at all? I'm asking because my doctor had suggested I get an ultrasound to check on my fibroids. They haven't been bothering…
  • That sucks about both things. Stupid cops! We got pulled over Friday night while driving to put Abby to sleep for a tag light being out. DH told the cop quietly we had a baby sleeping in the car. The cop still blasted the flashlight inside the car waking her up. Then a couple weeks ago our realtor (representative for our…
  • I always looked forward to Wildwood. I had fun every time i went, even if we didn't make it into finals. Enjoy spending one last weekend with the team and try to watch some other shows. I loved watching other guards, twirlers, and percussion groups. I wish you the best of luck going into chapters and all chapters.
  • Easter was really nice. We spent it with DH's family. After dinner we saw his grandparents to wish his grandmom a happy early birthday, had desert at his parents, and then went to his brothers to hangout by his firepit for a bit. DH and i forgot to take pics of the three of us together :(
  • Wildwood is where All Chapter Championships happen every year in May for winter guard, twirling, and percussion. It is in New Jersey. I competed there for 7 years. I'm sorry you are having rough days. At least tomorrow is Wednesday :)
  • Congrats! Such great news :)
  • That really stinks.
  • Great news! Enjoy this new chapter.
  • I'm very nervous about Abby moving to stage 3 and finger foods. Very nervous. I didn't realize how close she is to a year until I had an appointment for her wic this week and they asked me about when I was going to wean her off formula. I binge watched 2 seasons of Parenthood this week.

  • Yay! I really hope you get it. You've worked so hard for it.
  • It is great that she got the job. You must be so excited to have your parents around. I hope all their money troubles get fixed.
  • Edit: firefox took my paragraphs away. Ugh. Sorry :( I wish they would have made the season as a whole more about the relationship of Ted and Tracy and the actual marriage of Barney and Robin instead of just the wedding. I think doing an entire season on the wedding was a huge waste of time. As far as the finale it all…
  • I've been cleaning and putting away clothes for a good part of the day. I pinned some new recipies too. Yay for meal planning on Pinterest. Oh and I watched like 3 episodes or so of Parenthood.
  • Abby's first birthday, summer vacation, Abby walking, etc. I really am excited for her to be more mobile.
  • Feel better soon.
  • I'm happy you have so many good things happening at once. Especially that the drama maker is gone!
  • Are you watching on netflix too? What season are you on? I love this show so much even thougb it makes me cry a lot.
  • I have a hard time falling asleep too. I wish I could take a nap, especially when Abby has a hard time sleeping while teething. My husband falls asleep in any position anywhere and is a very heavy sleeper. Abby can be screaming and he won't wake up.
  • I also love watching Parenthood. I am halfway through season 2 and I love it. I read what happens on wikipedia for all seasons. I hope I didn't ruin it by doing that.
  • Chocolate milkshakes right before bed are a guilty pleasure of mine food wise. My other obsession is getting this cloth diapering thing right. I am so close now.
  • AF came tonight. I think it is going to be a heavy cycle because my back hurt a lot before I got it.
  • I've been wanting chips and salsa from this mexican/italian place we have in town. The chips are just taco shells broken into smaller pieces.
  • I am so happy you were able to determine there was a problem and take steps to do something about it. Always trust your gut no matter what anyone else says. Your know your baby best. I hope the glasses are enough to fix the problem.
