@ColieAnn31, can you do the Chicco Nextfit deal currently offered at Target?  Sale plus Cartwheel coupon?

I'm going to check it out. The chicco one we had to begin with was the red and grey one that I think is a babies r us exclusive. I'm going to check all my options.

@zigspective I'm definitely going to make him go get checked out. I was in a wreck a few years back and I didn't hurt at first but the pain finally kicked in a few hours later.

I have the best brother ever. To cheer me up today, he went to this really good cupcake place by his work. Then he drove way out of his way in the snow to deliver the cupcakes to me at home. Seriously, the best.

That looks delicious!

We had so much fun!! I can't believe Ty and Grayson were talking to each other I am now in the parking lot of Trader Joe's waiting for him to wake up from his nap from the drive so I can explore all the TJ goodness

So LO usually takes a nap around 3:30. He fought it like crazy and only just now fell asleep. I try to get him down for the night at 8. Should I wake him up in a little while or just let him sleep and see what happens?

@funkyphoenix did you ever get your offer letter?

I just got it yesterday evening and of course am trying to beat them up for more. Not sure I'll get it though, and not sure what I will do... It's not as good of a base as I am used to (bc this is a small company with a small budget) which wouldn't be so bad if commissions earning potential was really good and it's just so- so. The perks are that I would be 30 hours per week and have time with my baby... Also although I've got 10 years in outside sales experience I'm entering into a new industry. Hoping they come up and make this decision easy for me!

@steamboat1679 Thanks for asking

Me and my DH got into it yesterday because he was pissed that I went and bought a convertible car seat without discussing it with. I did tell him that they were on sale and that we needed to buy them this week to get a great deal. I guess he thought I was going to wait for him. I went on my lunch break and bought one. And I told him I was going to buy a second one tomorrow because we use both cars daily with KJ and I am not going to miss out on saving $150. He was so pissed about me spending $127 on the Graco (headwise 70) car seat and couldn't believe I was going to buy a second one because someone gave us an Evenflo car seat. That Evenflo car seat sucks for every day use IMO! I told him that when he decides that he wants to take an active role in making decisions for what our daughter needs by doing the research and comparing prices (something he is totally uninterested in doing) that he can make the decisions! Until then he needs to trust me to do what is right. That shut him up!

When this happens to us I usually let him stay up till 8:30. I always have to wake him up from his afternoon nap by 5:45-6 at latest. We have the exact same nap and bedtime schedule good luck!

Dear BLWeaners *snickers* - what's the protocol for feeding the baby meat?  We aren't doing BLW per say but we do give her a lot of finger foods to eat on her own.  I was thinking of giving her a piece of steak but I didn't know if it was completely out.

I don't BLW but do a lot of finger foods. DD gagged really bad any time I gave her large pieces of meat (she would bite off pieces that were too big). She's got a great pincer grip now, so tonight I gave her chicken cut up into pea sized pieces and she loved it. Last night I did the same thing with beef from a stew.

No longer the best

Aw feel better CL8BadB!!

No longer the best

I gave M some pieces of chicken from my casserole which he squished in his little hand put to his mouth and then threw on the floor!

@sctiger, our LO is too cranky at night to eat purées, but does fine at daycare. She does enjoy if I give her some "scraps" of food though. Tonight I have her some ground beef, tomato, and shredded teeth. She had a blast and even ate some.

Shredded teeth has me giggling like a little kid. I think I'm overtired.

Bah ha ha!! I meant "cheese."

@colieann31 I'm sorry. Glad everyone is ok.

H managed three accidents when I was pregnant. Totaled his car on his 4am commute when he swerved to miss a raccoon family (hit a telephone pole at 55 mph and walked away), caused 3k in damage to my car in an icy intersection and then a freaking turkey flew into the hood of his new car. Bad year.

@34Blondie, where in the hell do you live, woman? The zoo?

@CarolynL8BadB, I can't stand Subway either. It is a measly portion, and it all seems like fake meat and cheese. Blech.

@nursemomm13, No way!!!! sprinkles is way better. Gigi's is too sugary.

Y'all, I'm so behind since I'm traveling and working and helping bounce bounce bounce 6 week old nieces. BUT I wanted to share - hubby's new job flew him down this weekend. They are putting us up in a nice hotel and taking us out to a fancy dinner. My parents are coming up to stay with N, so we're gonna have a night on the town and first night away from N! So excited. Although I'm kinda afraid how much I will pump tomorrow morning.

I'm so glad that now I will have a great kid related excuse to see animated movies! My SS never liked going to movies- too loud and upset him. At home he never likes watching them either. He is so funny and odd for his age- he pretty strictly only watches ESPN, Shark Tank or The Weather Channel.

Oh! In other news, Ben is weighing in at 24 lbs and 5 oz now. Holy crap!!!

@funkyphoenix glad you got some answers about Ben!! YGPM
