Just in case you forgot - red jelly beans are cinnamon flavored. Definitely not strawberry.

TMI but random: After sex last night, my uterus or the baby was going crazy.  I am 15 weeks tomorrow, so it seems a bit soon, but it felt like the baby was rolling over and over and over and punching. Now back to your regularly scheduled, more appropriate program.

beezeee

@PizzaMonster3 you have to stick to the starburst jelly beans - no cinnamon! Better yet, you can get a whole bag of the special reds, which are all pink and red and delicious!

jessafishy

Friendly advice.

bluejeanbabi05

@beezeemarie yummmm. 

My mom got both me and DH our own Easter baskets this year lol. We have so much amazing candy in the house right now....

Popcorn jelly beans should be destroyed. There's nothing worse than mistaking that for something else.

WHAT IS THIS BLASPHEMY YOU SPEAK. I think this might be worse than the poster who doesn't like oreos.

....or was that you, too???

OliveOyl2014

@bluejeanbabi05 they don't even taste like popcorn! And I'm not the oreo hater. But popcorn flavored anything should not be allowed. 

bluejeanbabi05

Ok so just to clarify, you do like popcorn @OliveOyl2014

eta: the love tits are just because I like you, not because I support your position

OliveOyl2014

@bluejeanbabi05 I love actual popcorn. But those jelly beans taste like over buttered garbage. Sorry. 

bluejeanbabi05

Haha. I think they taste like salt and butter, both of which are things I love. Agree to disagree

Myelhsa

Jelly Beans in general are just awful. That is all.

I'm the oreo hater and I also am the hater of any and all jelly beans.  Who wants to eat wax? 

natleilynn

@Myelhsa there you go again, being my favorite. Jelly beans are the worst, regardless of flavor.

Have you had the heads or tails oreos though? They are so good! I loved Oreos before getting pregnant and now I hate them, and all sweets in general. I am suprised I haven't lost more weight considering I was pretty much living off the Elf diet before.

Wait, I like the cinnamon jelly beans.......

@natleilynn I couldn't have done it better myself!

STM's of older(ish) kids, I have a question. I'm trying to figure out what the least-creepy way to set up a possible play date is.

Backstory: We live in the country - not super rural since I can be at my job in (what I consider) a pretty large city in 22 minutes if traffic is nice to me. But definitely country and our preschool/daycare is in that country area.

A few weeks ago, I followed a truck from our road all the way to our preschool. Only about 5 minutes, but if you're on our road and go the same route from me, you must live fairly close to us since there's only so many ways out. 

The truck stops at preschool and DD recognizes the little girl in the truck as a girl in her class and says "oh, there's XXXX!" 

So here's my thing - obviously this little girl lives close to our house. I said a quick hello to her father that day, but other than that, nothing. Is it creepy for me to put a note in the girl's cubby at preschool and just say - hey, we followed your car to preschool one day so thought you might live close to us - we live in "xxx" neighborhood, would "girl's name" like to come for a play date sometime? Family is welcome to come hang out, here's my number.

Yes? No? I mean, I wouldn't be creeped out if I got a note like that, but I tend to be pretty open about most things. I might not send DD over to someone's house I've never met, but as long as we made it clear that the parents are welcome to hang out, too, I feel like it would be okay. I mean, I'm good with making some friends that have kids DD's age...

Thoughts?

erink7211

@natleilynn I wouldn't be creeped out by that but I would probably second guess doing it myself because I'm insecure lol. What if you just said your DD enjoys playing with their daughter at school and would like to know if they could have a play date? Then you could include your neighborhood and it would look like the stars aligned when they realized how close y'all are?

But then again I may be overthinking it. 

natleilynn

@erink7211 that's a perfect solution! I didn't want to be super creepy so that sounds wayyyyy better. Thanks!

erink7211

@natleilynn I hope it works out for you! We tried this once with DS and the parents just ignored it. Womp womp. 

natleilynn

@erink7211 ugh! How lame! We're fairly new to this area so just trying to find some people close by we could get DD together with sometimes and maybe make some friends ourselves along the way. I may put a note in her cubby this week, wish me luck

bluejeanbabi05

I just accidentally ate a cinnamon jelly belly, and DH happened to be passing me while I made a disgusted face. He asked why, and when I told him, he said "at least it wasn't a popcorn. Those are disgusting." Totally random, I hadn't mentioned our convo here at all. 

Being a single mom is going to be tough, but at least I will raise DD to my high food standards. 

jessafishy

@bluejeanbabi05 I'm so sorry about the downfall of your marriage. I pray for strength during this difficult time.

Myelhsa

I feel so dirty.

bluejeanbabi05

October is much too rational right now.

yasandson

@bluejeanbabi05 @Myelhsa. U women are killing me!! Lmao

OliveOyl2014

@bluejeanbabi05 This is how terrible the popcorn jelly bean is, it tears marriages apart. 

JessDG

@Myelhsa and @bluejeanbabi05.  Somehow I knew to look here to see about that back and forth.

Random: we should start the official baby y movement thread before we start to get all the one offs.

How has the black licorice jelly bean not been discussed yet?! That's the worst. Because you're like...I'm not sure, I think it's grape, I'm going for it.....annnnnnd regrets.

DH literally said he'd rather eat that one than the popcorn. @OliveOyl2014: thoughts?
