1. I think I'm getting sick again.
2. #1 is due to the fact that there is never a SINGLE day that an already sick person is spreading germs around the office.(Or bringing their sick kid in to do so).
3. I'm so looking forward to getting this live over with.
4. It's supposed to snow Saturday which complicates #3.
5. It's also supposed to snow today, so I'm anticipating a skeleton crew at work.
6. We are having a hot chocolate bar and cookie exchange at work today.
7. I can't wait to see what LO thinks of the decorated Christmas tree.
8. I think men who play Santa should grow real beards.
9. I wish Santa was real.
10. I can't wait for my big family dinner on the 21st.

3. I can't believe she will be 7 months old on the 19th.
4. My SIL and her family come from Germany on Thursday for 2 weeks!
5. I'm so excited, I've missed them and I can't wait to give kisses to my sweet niece and nephew

1. I keep forgetting to log on to The Bump, but then when I do I see I'm not missing anything. 

2. I think we just don't have much to talk about anymore? We've just GOT this parenting thing DOWN now, right? ;-)

3. I had food poisoning Sunday night and yesterday. Ugh. I haven't been that sick in a LONG time.

4. I'm taking a 1/2 vacation day next week to go to the dentist, for a crown. awesome. I'm out of sick time and personal days.

5. We put our tree up over the weekend  

6. Owen is teething horribly. He's been so fussy and miserable, which is so unlike him.

7. I can FINALLY see the white under his gums. I hope they poke through soon!
8. We're allllmost crawling. 

9. I went to a baby shower on Sunday and there was a guest (who I know and don't care for) who had to make a point to not only comment on how big O is, but also how her 2 year old only weighs a few more pounds than he does. Whoopdie f'n do. 

10. I could really use some caffeine but I don't think my stomach is ready for it yet.

This cracks me up - do you think they should dye their real beards white?

No. I also think they should have naturally white hair. I hold Santa to a high standard.

@Allison078 wow I'm sorry about the food poisoning and the dentist. Not quite sure which is worse. Your little man is adorable she's probably jealous because chubby babies are the best. I only get a week or so of a few leg rolls before R decides to have another growth spirt.

Ok I'm not sure if I'll get all 10
1) my boss is on vacation this week and it's hard to motivate myself to do work.
2) I need motivation because if my new project goes well I'm in line for a great promotion
3) we took R to see Santa and he was amazing. Didn't fuss the 45 mins we were waiting and totally smiled for everyone
4) DH is taking my Dad to a hockey game today as an early Christmas gift 5) so my mom and I are going to order Chinese, have wine and catch up on the Walking Dead
6) I can't wait to hear what DH has to say after this trip. My dad is almost 70 but has reverted back to being about 7 He wants all the junk at the concession, he has to pee every 10 mins, talks to random strangers, and wanders off constantly. Should be great.
7) I'm going to see my oldest brother in a few weeks. It's will be his first time meeting R.
8) My SIL just bought a house which means I get to pass along the ugly couches her parents gave to us that I have no room for.
9) my husband got another flat tire. He is a horrible driver and we go through a new set every year on his car.
10) we just had to replace one of our furnaces.... we had planned to go away for our 5 year anniversary in January but that looks like that isn't going to happen now.

1. I'm stuck under a sick baby so I'm being a PW today.
2. On Emmett's good days, I think I could have about 3 kids. On days like today I think that he is for sure going to be an only child.
3. Why didn't anyone warn me how hard motherhood would be?!?
4. I made a totally bitchy sounding comment in my previous thread today and I feel bad about it.
5. Emmett's fever is really making me worried.
6. The receptionist at my ped's office makes me feel like a crazy lady every time I call.
7. I love Em's ped but have considered switching due to said receptionist.
8. The bitchy receptionist told me to alternate Tylenol and Ibuprofen but when I googled it, most websites advise not to.
9. What would you ladies do?
10. My back is KILLING me from the position I am sitting in right now but no way am I going to move and wake the baby!

@kelseyhh Motrin works way better than Tylenol but if you give a dose of Motrin and the fever spikes before it's time for a second dose then Tylenol is safe. My older kids tended to run really high fevers.

Thanks @TradeMama!
