Perhaps a bit more of a UO but I don't think Love Actually is a great movie.  Pass.

Oh actual action confession:  I spent $$$$$  buying two ring slings.  Watch, my daughter wont even like being worn.

ShawnnaO

@antoto maybe it’s my confession that I’ve never seen it? Hell, I don’t think I’ve seen a new movie since my daughter was born.

@antoto @ShawnnaO I've never seen it, and I'm 100% sure I'd hate it based on clips and knowing the taste of the ppl IRL I know who have told me I'll love it (mainly my dad, who chronically misfires with all movie and TV recommendations). 

FFFC: I am the person who talks shit on almost all romantic comedies and sappy dramas, but now that I'm hormonal I can't watch any of the shit I used to watch and am now going back in time to 2001 and binging Gilmore Girls for the first time (no spoilers!) after 15+ years of acting like I was too cool for it. What's happening to me?!?

@antoto no flames from me! I have an ergo360, an emeibaby and a ring sling from my son... And I'm still considering buying a wrap conversion Tula for this baby because they're so pretty.

My confession: 
I think we should start a birth announcement thread seeing as it takes the bump gods a very
long time to sticky things... but I’m too lazy on mobile to start the thread and find the rule sheet.

I looooove reading the birth announcements on other bmb, and I’m super glad we haven’t had any early babies, but I’m really looking forward to reading all the birth stories in feb/March! 

ShawnnaO

@Cowboycorgi agreed! We should get the announcement/labor stories threads started so they can be pinned BEFORE we need them. I just lurked January to read their new announcements/stories. 

But also +1 to being too lazy to start it myself

My FFFC?  I've never had a sling or anything and I've never worn any of my babies.  I'm thinking about getting one this time around since I'll have 3, plus a dog but I would need something super easy, aka something already assembled that I don't need to wrap around myself 5 different ways.

Another FFFC: DH went out at 5AM for a milkshake for me and I drank it as soon as he got back and don't feel an ounce of guilt about it

ashleyf911

@Cowboycorgi @ShawnnaO I'll do it! I've been dying for someone to get them started for our BMB.  Not that I want any of us to have our babies anytime soon, BUT it does take forever to get stickied.

LOL I also have the ergo and the moby and have the Ktan on my registry.  I have this excuse in my head that since I live in AZ I need special ones for the summer heat and then other ones for the rest of the year. So obviously I had to get one warm woven sling and one single layer linen sling.  Duhhhhh

@vflux33 MH and I totally binge watched all of Gilmore Girls for the first time ever last year... it took us a few months, but he was a good sport about it. Lol. 

@LaurenAnn0405 I really like my Lillebaby carrier... it’s easy to use and is adjustable for smaller and larger babies.

@ashleyf911 I kind of want a wrap conversion carrier too. I’m trying to decide if it’s too complicated for me to do. Lol. I’m horrible at wrapping without help. I can never get it tight enough. 

AFM, I confess to liking Love Actually and sappy romances.

amylonghorn

OMG I LOVE Love Actually!! And +1 for not doing any of the baby wearing biz.

AFM, my FFFC is that I'm wearing the most hideous pair of undies today. DH needs to do laundry, so I put on a big ol pair of ugly gray granny panties that I got during my first pregnancy and proceeded to wear for an unreasonable amount of time after DD was born. Who's trying to get laid on her birthday?! THIS GIRL!! Bahahaha!!! 

LaurenAnn0405

Another FFFC - I had to look up AFM on google to see what it meant because while I get a lot of the abbreviations, my job uses a ton of abbreviations and it's too much for my brain.

mdfarmchick

DS has been so whiny the past few days and I’ve had awful BH in the evenings. MH has his work Christmas party tonight and I just asked him to drop off the food and come home because DS has been a pill all day and acting out of sorts and I don’t want to deal with it when I’m dealing with BH and all kinds of uncomfortable tonight. 

cford08

@amylonghorn is it your BIRTHDAY?! Have a good one if so!

My confession: I am not looking forward to being dragged to the new Star Wars that came out by my DH and some of our friends. But I will fake the funk so I can get popcorn.

I don't like it at all! 

Cowboycorgi

I’m a bit weird about Love Actually. I don’t think I would actually love the movie if it weren’t for Emma Thompson and Alan Rickman, but they are two of my favorite actors of all time. The scene with Emma crying to Joni Mitchell, then wiping her tears and putting on a smile for her kids... yeah, it’s my spirit animal XD

Another FFFC? Half of my ‘5 celebrities you are allowed to cheat on your spouse’ are dead.  
Yul Brynner
David Bowie
Alan Rickman
Milia Jovavich
Kathryn winnick

2016 was only made ok by the birth of my DD 

[Deleted User]

@Cowboycorgi so true - those two make any scene in any movie absolutely amazing.  Emma Thompson is just wonderful.

amylonghorn

@cford08 YES!! Thank you for the birthday wishes!!!!

vflux33

Hope you had a great birthday @amylonghorn!

amylonghorn

It ended up being very nice, despite my anger and bitterness from the SIL situation @vflux33!! Thanks for the well wishes!!

ksmwalters

Jumping in super late, but I kinda love Love Actually. There are SO many things about it that I should hate (like especially the Colin Firth storyline...) but I can’t help it! Emma Thompson makes the movie for me. Also Hugh Grant dancing. ALSO at his tweet from Travon Free made me lol and squeal a bit:
