We normally go to ILs on Sundays. This week I sent husband, dog, and baby by themselves because I had an interview to prep for. Which I did, but first I went to a craft fair and took a long bath in an empty house.
The baby and the dog came back exhausted from the day at Grandma's, I may make this a regular thing.
Our apartment complex wouldn't let us keep our dog anymore. He really has been such an annoyance to me because he's big and always in the way is such a tiny apartment. I only kept his around for dh. I'm secretly loving having him gone. And he is much happier where he is (mil) who now lives on 3 acres and he has 5 other dogs to run with. Much better for him. We will be taking him back when we move soon and I feel bad to take him away from all of that. But we will be in a 3 bedroom with a small area for him to run outside and a much nicer neighborhood with a park
Pee-out! Great phrase, @andoll8 , I'm going to borrow it. DD had a pee-out herself last night and was howling mad about it. So I changed her, put her in a new onesie and sleeper. But her favorite sleep sack was really wet, too. So I put the hairdryer on it for a couple minutes. Stinky but dry!
We do the angel tree and I always pick toys (and get them what they want- wtf babybarlow's friend?) but I never pick the clothes ones. I know kids need clothes but I'd much rather buy toys!
At my old job, we did something similar and the kid I got "needed" a headset for his X Box. WTF. I got it but never did that again. Someone actually complained to the head of the program that the kids didn't seem that needy and their response was that they don't screen the requests.
ILs are crazy. I'm mad at my MIL and FIL and have no intention of giving them another chance even though I told DH I would. The short version is DH was very sick and in the hospital. They live about 1 hr 45 min away. They kept making excuses why they couldn't come visit DH, such as his dad didn't want to drive in the rain. I had to beg them to come. And they made this very stressful situation worse. Who needs to be convinced to visit their son in the hospital????
My 2nd one today. My SIL is barely 6 mo pregnant and yesterday her and my BIL came over for dinner and she was talking about how uncomfortable she is already. I may have been a little mean and said "girl you have no idea what uncomfortable is." Give it two months and then talk to me. This is her first pregnancy and she's drama.
Plus one for crazy in laws. Mine are rude and unbearable. Can't wait for thanksgiving at their house. Not.
@THD7580 I have a friend who's 4 months pregnant and complains about how much she's showing. I told her it doesn't even look like she has gas, let alone a pregnant belly. Lol
Mind boggling... why in the hell would you complain about showing when you are pregnant? I was excited and probably thought I showed more than others thought.
I was upset that I wasn't showing enough! I know, I know........

Right? I wore tight shorts every where so everyone could see my "bump" and sometimes I even did the ole belly rub just so people didn't just think I was really out of shape
I wish they made unisom for infants so I could get one night of rest without my daughter tossing and turning and she would sleep peacefully through the night. I would have no guit in giving her a sleep aid.

@THD7580 I thought about it, but wouldn't it be awful to give her allergy medicine for my own personal gain? Or is it socially acceptable and it's just my own guilt telling me not to.
@pistolpackinmomma Lol. No. DH would have fit if I paid anywhere near that much for a diaper. They all started out too rich for me (and by that I mean that by the time I saw them, they were much too high). I got one of the selfie game ones.
Yeah I couldn't believe the prices! Wowza!!!
Congrats to my GP Sister from another mister Bruinsbabe!!
Even though I know I shouldn't I put DD in her swing sometimes to nap because I know she will sleep at least an hour or more, then I go take a nice long nap too!
We just did this this morning so I could go to the gym and DH could clean up.

Eh benedryl isn't really anything you couldn't just give every once in a while. My sister had to give it to my nephew so she could sleep too and him because he was an awful sleeper. And my cousin whose a nurse practitioner always says use that over any kind of sleep aid even for adults as well.

Agreed. My friend, who's a nurse, says all her colleagues who have kids use Benadryl for their own purposes (particularly on airplanes, apparently).
