Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Friday Confessions??? We take em here!!

Just trying to get the board moving a little on a Friday...plus I'm procrastinating about actually doing work today.

I actually have had one all week, but I'm trying to come up with how to say it without being mean....I'm working on it though....

Re: Friday Confessions??? We take em here!!

  • There's a regular nestie on here that kinda irritates me.  She seems to be well liked but for some reason I don't believe half the stuff she says and her stories seem to change frequently.

  • Im really sad that I didn't get my bfp yet. ?I won't say it out loud to anyone though b/c we have only been trying for 2 months. ?I know it takes a long time with some people so its silly to be sad. ?With ds it took one try and in my hopeful mind I thought it would happen that way again. :(
  • DD and I are leaving DH alone for the weekend to attend a slumber party.  DD 1st slumber party yay!  And I kind of hope he can't sleep because we aren't there.  I hope he thinks about us until he goes crazy!

    I'm confused....DD's slumber party at 10 months?  You hope 'He" thinks about us? 

    Who's slumber party? 

  • OK I have another one....

     DH wants to move DD to another daycare.  He has a coworker who's daughter watches other children.  I'm so nervous about this.  DD loves the daycare that she is in, but it is pretty expensive, this lady would probably charge about half of what we are paying now, but what do we lose out on?  On the plus side it's closer to work and it would help DH out when he's working on his side job.  Oh it's just so frustrating.  I hate this decision.  It's not that I don't trust in-home daycares it's just I feel so comfortable in the one we have now.  But the extra money would be nice.

     Oh and when I see pictures of BIM's DD it reminds me of my DD because she is just as bald!!!  LOL  I love bald babies!!! 

     OK maybe that was 2 more.....

  • I wish i would get laid off, so i can be home w/DD.  I hate working but i know i should be thankful for a job.. And we couldn't afford it but i want to be home w/my little girl..
  • I secretly like that DD is uber-attached to me. Whereas a lot of times it's a PITA because I can't put her down, leave the room, etc. I like that she reaches for me when someone else (like her grandma or sometimes even DH) is trying to hold her.

  • I dislike people who judge others kids when they don't reach a particular milestone "oh shouldn't they be doing this by now", etc... comments like this make me want to give them a kick in the head.
  • I was happy to come to work this morning.  DD does not STTN and lastnight was especially bad.  Needless to say, we were both quite crabby this morning.  Since I feel bad about being crabby around DD I was happy to come to work so that my co-workers can deal with my attitude and not DD.  In fact, for the first time ever, I couldn't wait to get out of the house this morning.  Usually, I'm all sad, but not this morning.  I'm still crabby so I don't even feel bad about it yet.
  • I have another one...I start work at 8:30.  I haven't done any work yet.  I'm exhausted and have no motivation. 
  • I hate when mom's post about how guilty they feel that they gave DC a french fry, a cookie or some ice cream....

    I'm sorry but one french fry isn't going to scar them for life and make them fat tomorrow.  Don't you want to teach them moderation rather than "NO you can't have that it's BAD BAD BAD"  Hello...were you ever a teenager and your parents told you no didn't you want to do it even more???

     

    Man I have all kinds of stuff to say today...

  • I always yell at DH for giving (letting him taste) DS food that in my mind he shouldn't like fries, chocolate, sweets, etc.  I am pretty strict with this and yes I know bad, but I have even yelled at him if front of others.  I wanted to take Valentine pictures of DS with one of those big suckers and I actually let him suck on it.  He loved it and cried when I took it away.  DH made a comment about me letting him have that and I said it was for picture purposes only.   

    To each their own but DS has the rest of his life to eat this stuff so why give it to him now.  We eat junk food/sweets a lot so he will be getting that stuff just not right now.

  • I blew up at DH last night as he sat on the couch drinking a glass of wine and I vaccuumed and tried to make DDs lunch at the same time.  I was supposed to be doing my fitness DVD but since he tracked mud all through the house after walking the dog yesterday morning, I had to clean up the mess.  I'm not sorry for it - he's messy and his mother was fine with it.  Well, I work all day like he does and I'm not his Merry Maid when I get home.  I wish I had the restraint to just let the house go so and not pick up so he'll realize just how messy he is.

  • I hate that I'm judging and feel this way, but my SIL, who is 18 just got engaged to her boyfriend of 3 months. They are getting married in 4 months. They have not kissed yet. They are waiting for their first kiss to be as man and wife. I find that weird. Also, just 6 months ago she was in college, studying to be a journalist, saying she didn't want to have kids and marriage until 30. Then she quits school, meets this guy and she will be married at 18 and wants her first kid by 19.

    I have a cousin who is the worst kid. He is 17 and very manipulative. He has done stuff like break my aunt's collarbone and he never got punished. He got expelled from school and never got punished. He was ARRESTED for shoplifiting, possesion of alcohol and tobacco and for resisting arrest and still never got in trouble. His grandpa got him out trouble with the law. It makes me sick that my family feels "sorry" for him because his parents got divorced and he had a tough life. I'm sorry, you're 17, you think you can be an adult, then act like one. Err.

  • I just ate my lunch at my desk at around 11 AM (pregnant and sooo hungry!) and lunch break isn't till noon. I'm still going to take my lunch break, though.
  • DH is going away for the weekend and I'm dreading being alone. I realize in my brain that many DHs are gone far more and far longer, but I'm a big baby. Adam is just exhausting now.

    I even invited my mom to stay overnight so I'd have enough time to shower Sunday morning and do proper hair removal since Adam starts swim lessons Sunday night! DH will miss swim class too - I don't even know how I can get us both dry and dressed to go home - the second I put him down he races off!

  • I quit taking Spanish lessons even though they are paid for by dh's work because I hated doing it so much. Right now, I don't care if I learn Spanish or not. I don't really like the people here, so I don't care if I can't communicate beyond what I have to do.

    I fired our nana (maid/babysitter) because she wasn't careful enough around the baby and she got an attitude with me about things. The bad thing is I don't care if she gets deported back to Peru because she doesn't have a job. She should have done her job well and she'd still have one.

    I find that I am judgemental of the other moms in the English-speaking playgroup I attend. They sit around and drink coffee while others (me!) push their kids on the swings and pick them up when they get hurt. I fear I am going to yell, "get off your a$$es and be parents!" someday.  

    I think I actually have more, but will have to think. I am still wearing my pajamas, because I don't feel well today.

  • I was annoyed with DH this morning when he complained about how tired he was.  We went to bed at the same time last night and he woke up an hour after I got up with DD.  Plus I'm the one getting up with her 4 times a night!  Grrr, I'm the wrong person to complain to about being tired.

    Hmmm, I wonder if we are thinking about the same person!

  • I'm full of em........

    It amazes me how many Moms plan their kids birthday party's months in advance...not like 1 or 2, Like 4 - 6. Like some ladies who come the 6-12 and are all "Yay, I had our birthday invitations made!!" I understand the excitement, but you've got some time ahead of you, enjoy your baby while they are "babies"

    I've asked DH 10,000 times to put the lock on the cabinets in the kitchen, he has yet to do it, really you can't put 12 little hooks on? 

    I'm sick of my SIL coming over and just taking all  my movies.....while no one is home, seriously at least call me and ask, you know I will say yes.

    Last one.....we are TTC, cycle 4 and I'm pretty sure that this cycle is shot. All I want is a BFP....... badly.  I guess I was spoiled when we got PG with DS on cycle 1.

     Is it me? Crying

  • Nope not you  Stick out tongue

    At least from me. 

  • I took a four hour nap yesterday.  My husband was home so it was okay, but I felt sorta bad about it.  I'm feeling so much better than I was, but the meds are making me really sleepy.  It seems really decadent for the mom of a one year old to sleep so much.

    I'm tired of people complaining about this board being slow and then doing nothing about it. Post a PIP, post a poll, talk about sex.  If you want entertainment, be entertaining.

  • I took a pregnancy test this morning and it had the faintest second line...like I very well could have hallucinated it.  I don't know if I want to tell anyone, I think I have become obsessed with getting pregnant and now I am only seeing what I want.  I will take another test in a week or so.  I will just be careful of what I eat and drink until then.  I think being sick and lack of sleep are catching up with me.
  • I put in a video (related to my subject area, of course!) for my students so that I didn't have to teach them something new today. Maybe not the worst thing I've done since we have exams next week, but I kinda felt bad about doing this.

    I am also wearing the same socks I wore yesterday - and didn't wash last night - because I was too lazy to find new ones this morning.

  • Here are mine that I posted on 6-12:

    - I'm a bit of a tree hugger. When I see something recyclable (sp?) in the trash, I secretly cringe. I'm the type that will carry something home & put it in recycling. I go so far as to bundle up all of my paper products each week, & I even carry home the mixed media I have (that's not sensitive!) my office doesn't recycle and bundle it. Americans can be so lazy when it comes to recycling.

    - I slept in this morning & I don't care. DH has to leave early to pick up DD, but I don't care... he's working 6 days/week, no OT... they can spare him 30 minutes.

    -Last week, I switched desks with someone (boss' orders) & my new spot kicks ass. Unlike my last spot, no one can see what I'm doing when they walk by, & I'm right by a window! I also insisted on cleaning my old desk & vacuuming my floor area... not because I was being courteous so much as the desk I was moving to was messy. And I didn't want to offend anyone so..

    -My DD drove me crazy last night... she wanted me to hold her ALL evening. I could barely fix dinner or clean up the dishes (DH was working late so he wasn't home).

    -I am irritated that my sister is already letting her month-old DS CIO. She's not doing it all the time apparently, but still...

    -I will probably think of more after I hit "post."

  • I am starting to miss being pregnant, and starting to want #2, but at the same time I am very willing to wait another year before trying.

    I hate hate hate not having money (I got paid today, but 1/3 of it's already gone for direct deposit advances we had to make to cover some necessities and stupid fricking overdraft fees), but there's not a damn thing I can do about it since I am already working FT and DH is a SAHD/musician/pt at BRU and we're doing the best we can.

    I just want to go home, even though there is work I should/could be doing here but I am a wee bit depressed at the moment so I am nesting instead.

  • I avoid answering the phone when our two friends who are married call because they complain all the time, and it makes my head hurt. Do they have every right to biitch? Yes. But it's been forever and I'm tired of it.
  • I also get really angry at people who have lots of money. I know this is stupid and petty but I am really jealous of them.

    I sometimes resent the fact that my husband is a musician, but it's mainly because musicians are not paid what they deserve, and not that he is one, if that makes any sense. 

    I really really want to be a SAHM but it's just not going to happen, so I kind of resent the families that actually are able to do that, even though my DH is a SAHD.

    No, not you!!!

  • I have more!

    For our tax return we bought a brand new HD TV. We also upgraded to HD with our satellite and DH got a Blu-Ray player for his birthday, so our whole tax return is gone. Even though the TV is "ours" I think of it as "his". I want something too! It's petty and I need to get over it because I SAH and probably watch more TV than DH!

    I taped a bunch of "Shaun the Sheep" from the Disney Channel for DS because one time we watched it and he laughed so hard he fell over. Then he belly laughed the whole time. It's hilarious and I play it for him about once a day!

  • I have been SOOO tired lately that several times I've taken DS into his playroom and just laid on the couch and zoned out.  Luckily, he usually doesn't seem to mind playing by himself... Tongue Tied
