    I just being a big baby tonight ( when I'm actually awake)... My head is killing me, nose is stopped up ears popping eyes burning !! And my Netipot is just laughing at me when I try to use it ... I even had my honey take me to Walgreens to get some actual Sudafed and all that entails here in Tennessee... And nothing!!! So please entertain me !!!
    On the bright side I do think we finally have a name for the LO ... Gavin Xavier !!

    I saw your post about your possible Christmas gift! I'm so excited for you :)

    Oh I am very excited too and the kids will go crazy !! It will probably be just us and the kids and my daughter ( she gets to be the witness since she's old enough ) at the courthouse or maybe we could swing up to one of those gawdy wedding places in Gatlinburg!!

  • Well I'm gonna make mine a little of a complaining, ranting, bitch fest (auto correct wanted to put Butch fest!? Lol) So my mom called me this morning (we don't really have a good relationship) she asked me for my honest opinion about her so I gave it to her, she didn't take it very well. So then She gets on Facebook and post things that hint toward me... So my hormones are RAGING! So I came home stuffed my face with a huge plate of spaghetti and garlic bread! Now I'm watching Christmas Vacation and thinking my family could be worse! Lol. Also I'm cursing this damn snow and the awful head cold I have!

    Are we one of the same or what!? From the bitch autocorrect to the awkward convo with mom, to having spag for dinner and our hatred of snow! I swear we had the exact same day.

    I'm sorry your mom's a jerk and you had a bad day.

  • Keeping along the lines of being preggo, I'm starting to remember how much my body changes. Like the fact that as my belly grows out, so does my butt.  Maybe it's my body's way of staying balanced or proportioned?  I'm a bit jealous of the ladies who only have a pregnancy belly, but stay small everywhere else.  I am, however, enjoying my pregnancy boobs. They haven't been this big since I was pg with DS 15 years ago.  

    Pregnant boobs are the best!!

  • @megangehr I love your wedding dress! So pretty!

    I had Taco Bell on Sunday, for the first time in over a year. I thought I'd sworn off it for good but the baby wants what it wants. As I bit into that soft taco supreme, a chorus of Whitneys started singing "I Will Always Love You" in my head. I can't quit the Taco Bell.

    Thanks!! I wish I could wear it again, haha. (And I got such an awesome deal on it)

    DS won't go to bed. Yippee!

    The people who have their panties in a bunch in the poll today need to just get over it.

    My back is killing me.

    I still need to finish decorating the Christmas tree but don't feel like it.

    I'm tired and ready for bed. Go the fuck to bed kid!!!

    I haven't even started our tree yet. Am i a total grinch if I don't? I love Christmas. But I'm lazy. Also pretty sure our humongous 6 month old puppy will make having a tree a living hell. Her newest tricks include effortlessly jumping on top of tables. I mean.... If the cat can do it ...

    What are the postpartum hair sucks? My hair has basically been a greaseball since I got the BFP :( 

    It all falls out about 3 months PP. I started building a Guinea pig in the corner of my shower.
    What does it mean when it is falling out more than normal while pregnant? Am I in for it even worse once I get to PP?

    Also, ditto on the shitty skin. I was really hoping it would get all nice and glowy, but it got all pimpley and dry.

    For the record, so far, I do not like being pregnant. 

    But I got to go to the Omaha Zoo today and it's probably the best Zoo I have ever been to!

  • I ugly cried today cuz my husband and I were bickering and then he told me he wouldn't go pick up my new sheets for me at target while I was at work. And then i cried when he said he was just kidding. I also cried when I went to get an iced tea from Starbucks and they were out of my favorite tea. What a jackass I've been all day. I'm not usually really emotional so I feel like such a baby!
  • Can I just be salty about that random chick who showed up out of no where to write a post about how great her sex life is? That made me mad.

    Maybe too mad.

    Pardon my hormones.

    With my daughter, my hair fell out in clumps during pregnancy. I had enough to make a hair dye swatch after every shower. :( it didn't actually fall out as bad as some people's does postpartum. Hopefully it's the same for you!

    Does he need to be read "Go the Fuck to Sleep"? You can have it read by Samuel L. Jackson. His voice is so soothing. 

    Something like that! He was playing on the floor, even though I knew was tired, but it has now turned into whiny grump ass that won't lay on me (our typical, yes he's almost a year old, don't judge) without steam rolling all over me. Laying in bed (even with me standing there rubbing his belly) is out of the question. I need beer. :( Or a husband who's home every night would be nice too.

    Congrats to my GP Sister from another mister Bruinsbabe!!

  • Sometimes I have a really hard time not talking about my kid all the time. I try not to be one of those obnoxious Facebook moms, but seriously, she is so awesome. Today I told her "happy Wednesday" and she told me "happy Halloween!" Then we made cinnamon ornaments with cookie cutters and she kept saying over and over "this is *great*!" She calls me by my first name half the time, which is totally weird. She accuses me of pooping every time I go to the bathroom. If we play in the basement, she insists that we both wear fairy wings. I can't wait until she teaches her little sibling everything she knows, even though she says she would prefer a big brother or sister to a little one.

    I think I want you to talk about your daughter all the time.

    She seriously sounds amazing.

    No judging. DD got herself to sleep every night (in our bed) by playing with my hair. From 6-18 months.

    Jumping in! I kind of love this, how can you not, it is too cute and hilarious!
    I can't even say I was mad. She will jump off our patio table outside but just cries when she ends up on the craft table. She's scared to jump down, haha. She's an awesome dog.

    He's just about out finally which means I can put him down in 30-45 minutes. I'm starting to work on getting him to nap alone. So far yesterday was 25 minutes and then no more naps all day and today was 35 minutes then crashed on my lap half an hour after waking up pissed off. Oh and most nights he ends up in my bed by 2-3 in the morning. He was doing so good until about 8 months and a god awful regression hit. We're still trying to fix it!

    DH and I make fun of all of them. The one that inspired my comment was the one where the chick says the ring is perfect and the guy says that's because he already had it sized. Um, how? You brought her hand in with you while she wasn't using it?

    I have been systematically purging my house all week (aka THROW AWAY ALL THE THINGS). Tonight was "that" closet in the basement. You know the one. You have one too. It's the place for all the things without a place. And over time, things get piled and crammed til there is no more room and you don't want to go in there for anything. It's the "I know we own an air mattress but I don't want to go into THAT closet so let's just go to Target and buy a new one" closet.

    Yeah. I cleaned it.

    Emptied it out. Chucked 75% of the junk. However, a can of paint, which had not been closed properly, decided (at some point in the last year or so) to leak all of its contents out and cover as much junk as it could. Most of the paint was dry (so I got rid of anything stuck in the mess) but there were a couple places still wet.

    And I managed to get two paint spots on my maternity jeans. FML.

    Ps @busterbeagle DD likes to calm me by my first name as well. Not always, but if I don't respond promptly she does. And it's always funny.

    Hahah I always thought that! A friend was going on an on about her black diamond earrings she got - bitch please, they're cheap AND ugly.

    And don't get me started on those "chocolate" diamonds. Hideous AND offensive marketing. Just because you call it chocolate doesn't mean women will like it. It's a polished turd.

    That sounds like my whole basement. And she definitely busts out the first name if I don't respond quick enough. She also uses DH's first name if she's yelling to him/at him. I wonder where she learned that?

    DH had my class ring and tried using that when he got me a promise ring. It didn't fit. What he failed to realize is that my class ring was sized for my right hand and my right and left were two different sizes. However my promise ring was in the shop (I broke the band because it was so dainty) when he bought my engagement ring so that did work for him. My ring fit when he gave it to me!

  • I too have been in the purging mood. I just took a 36 gallon tote worth of clothes to goodwill today. My goal is to get another one to take next week, at least. We're still unpacking but I just want to start tossing everything left to unpack.

  • Tomorrow night we are going out to dinner with my family and having DD open a present to reveal the sex of this baby to everyone. I know I can't wait until Christmas and I don't want to spill it in a lame way or to someone like a random coworker before family. I made a boy onesie with a boy tie and suspenders, but I still have nothing for a girl. Is it bad if I just wrap something that was DD's? I had some booties but they are MIA.
