**FFFC**

Re: **FFFC**
My coworker who bailed without calling or texting on setting up the personal shower for me with my sister is planning one that is work only.... she somehow got the idea that I actually got things off my registry (only got two items and a bunch of clothes and baby toys) so told everyone at work to only bring diapers and wipes for the first year. I know I should be glad that we are gonna be all set when it comes to changing LO, at least thats what DH says, and I know the registry is just a guideline, but I am still disappointed/annoyed. It means we are going to have to go get all the bottles, sheets, blankies, the diaper genie, mattress, safety stuff, grooming kit, etc ourselves, so in addition to saving up to pay bills while I am off work, we gotta come up with a way to pick this stuff up too, and find a place to store all the diapers and wipes when all our *** and the baby's is crammed into one bedroom at my parents place.
In all reality, I know we can do this, we are so not broke even though it will be tight for a bit, but I'm still like WTF, all you had to do was go look at the registry and see that nothing has really been marked off there.

I think everyone judges young moms..I do it too, and I am a young mom. I had my DS at 20, and now having DD at 24. I know how hard it is, and have seen so many people have babies and then hand them off everytime they wanted to go out and have fun and uses the "but I'm still young" line thinking that makes it better!! It's THOSE young moms who don't care enough about their children who make us all look bad.
Here's another confession:
We let our Costco membership lapse about 2 years ago. We don't have the room for bulk items and we just couldn't justify the cost of the membership.
Anywho - BFF is taking me to Costco tomorrow to stock up on some non-perishibles. I'm so excited. Like I feel like I'm 6-years-old and going to Disneyland. I only wish we could have gone on Sunday so we could do the Costco Buffet Breakfast.
Unable to even.

OMG, why??? Why would you do that???? Are you deliberately trying to go blind????

I would put the nurses on guard if I were you. This is just not OK behavior.
Yours have a buffet breakfast?! DH and I don't have a membership, but my parents do and they just took us last weekend. We end up splitting a bunch of items with them, since we don't have storage for a lot of the bulk stuff either. They did had a TON of Carter's outfits for under $7 though. :-)
Happy shopping! (maybe they'll have some good free samples)
Ha! No, not literally. It's all of the freebies they give away in the food section. You can have yourself a decent sized meal there just by grabbing up one of every type of food offered.

I was about to be insanely jealous of your Costco. :-)
I love all the free samples that they hand out. I just hate being pushed out of the way by people once they pull something out of the microwave or oven...especially the older guys.
I plan on it! Anybody who will be in the waiting area other than MIL (my mom & sisters) will also be aware of what MIL is capable of. It's still something that I can't seem to get out of my mind! If I had it my way, she wouldn't come see us for days after the delivery, but I can't do that to DH, he is close to his mother. Thank God DH knows how his mother could be, though. If she starts acting up, he'll let her know. Gosh, I feel like I'm talking about a toddler!!
I vote Jelly Bellies!
really wish I could have wine, and a smoke right now..
Every day, I check on our hamsters, and every day I hope that they died overnight. I'm horrible.. I like them, but one stinks horrible and I really regret getting her.
My FFFC: I'm SO laughing at the fact that atliermethod finally got what was comin to her (on a message board). But karma's a b!tch too, so I'm sure she'll get it IRL too.
Mikaela is going to have a little brother!
Word.
Really? You would rather that than give the hamsters away?
::steps up on soap box::
When you take another life into your home, whether it be human or animal, you are responsible for it. If you cannot, for any reason, accept that responsibility, then you should find someone who can. People who take animal life so lightly make me sooooo mad. Just because they aren't human does not make them any less valuable or important.

Oh yes.
Also, to the PP about young moms, I'm a young mom (21 next month) and I judge other young moms too. It drives me crazy that I get lumped into the category of silly girls who get pregnant and have babies, then still want to go out with friends every night. I am fully aware of the sacrifices I am making to have my baby, and I wouldn't change any of it. FI and I wanted to have kids young, so we're doing it.
