Flame Free Confession Friday Post

SheriBT · April 2009

Confession of the week: I secretly hope I don't have a redheaded boy. I am wishing that eventually I will have a redheaded girl. I just feel like redheaded boys, as cute as they are, get picked on more for it. I feel terrible about it, but, that is how I feel.

MommyandKate · April 2009

I'm with you 100%. I'm a redhead and would love for a daughter to be, but I'd prefer a son to have dark hair like DH.

AfterAll · April 2009

I have 0 desire for sex... we have not had sex since January... poor guy. I'm asleep by 8:30 at night and we barely see each other these days. I am going to make a conscious effort to stay up a bit later from now on...

t.bird · April 2009

i bought breakfast 2x this week. for someone that never buys breakfast..i feel guilty.

i also made my husband buy me a BLT for dinner last night. tsk tsk.

jenna0627 · April 2009

I agree. My SIL actually wanted a red head boy and to name him oliver. I thought that was just cruel and just was setting him up to be teased. Embarrassed

(Luckily she had a girl.)

Pennylane824 · April 2009

Okay.. I wanted a redheaded boy.. I have several male cousins that have red hair and a VERY good looking. Kids will use any excuse to tease other kids.

My confession: As much as I said I wanted a boy (and I did really want one) I am THRILLED to be having a little girl and get to put her in bows and dresses!

eeclem · April 2009

my SILs have been getting on my nerves lately, so I've been ignoring them. until the other other day with MIL said they were planning on throwing me a shower and since then i've gone out of my way to be nice to them.

mrsmel · April 2009

i have convinced myself it's normal to have two breakfasts each day: one at home and one once arriving at work. there's a two hour gap, so i need more food. and babies can never have enough bagels.

DanielsWife · April 2009

My mom was terrified that I would be a redhead - specifically a ginger.

sweetyface77 · April 2009

I've ordered out for lunch 3x this week. If my DH only knew, he'd be upset because I'm always harping about us saving money for vacation and other things for the baby and the finishing of the nursery and everything...

::hangs head::

I'm such a hypocrite Sad

ArmyBride0604 · April 2009

I had a mimosa on Saturday at brunch and a small glass of wine Tuesday night at a party. Up until this week, I'd been going with just a sip out of DH's glass every once and awhile.

I ate breakfast twice this morning - cereal at home and then a sausage biscuit after Blair's grits post made me hungry again.

I haven't read a single baby book yet.

After the hair dying post, I went through my calendar checking my highlight appointments to make sure that I had an appointment somewhat close to my due date so I wouldn't have crazy roots in the hospital.

gumiberg · April 2009

I have donuts hidden in the back of the fridge that my husband doesnt know about.

MizMac · April 2009

Good friends of DH just gave birth to baby #2 this morning, a little boy. ?My first thought was "yay!" ?My second thought was "I hope they don't use our boy name...." ?Is that selfish? ?:-)

Re: red hair: DH has red hair, and he is terrified that we might have a red-headed boy! ?He grew up in Ireland, and there and in the UK kids are mercilessly teased for it (waaaaaay worse than here ? there was actually a red-headed family last year that had to move to a new town because it was so bad). ?I think he's in luck, though ? there are no red-heads in my family, and without two recessive genes baby's in the clear!

Amy Conkling · April 2009

I've eaten way too many sweets each day this week. I told myself I'd stop after Easter, but I've gotten into the candy stash or baked goods daily! And I licked the spoon of cake batter when I was baking a couple of days ago. Whoops!

Reagan's Mommy · April 2009

DH is on a diet, and I have absolutely been craving junk. So, I buy it and hide it so he isn't tempted. I eat it when he isn't here.

Also, I've been spending way too much on eating out. No matter what I buy at the grocery store, nothing at home ever sounds good. We're supposed to be on a budget...whoops!

MadameFancyPants · April 2009

I accidently drank 1/2 a red stripe yesterday. I asked if I could try a sip (never had it before) and ooooops it became the longest sip in my life.

I feel a little guilty, but it's not something I will allow to happen regularly... I'm not a big drinker, it just tasted soooo good and refreshing.

fairychick77 · April 2009

I do little things to my co-worker(who I can't stand) just so she thinks she going crazy. Put her out on the In/Out board when she's in the office, unplugging her printer, turning her ridiculously loud a$$ music all the way down when she goes to the bathroom....

Mature? No

Fun? Hell Yes!!

Jenn.J. · April 2009

Originally I was leaning towards wanting a girl, but I've changed my mind - not for any good reason. DH's cousins all have girls and are still reproducing like rabbits. The boy name we have picked out is his grandfather's name, who DH was very close to, but none of his cousins really were. If they have a boy first, they'll probably take the name, even though they really weren't that close to him, which makes me mad.

Bahahahaa - that is hysterical!

peppermintgirl · April 2009

My FIL was going to give us a crib that was used for his youngest two sons (so it may be three years old at the most). I kept reminding DH that his dad lets the boys run wild and tear anything up that they want so we'd probably end up with a crib in not-so-good shape. What I really meant was that I really wanted the one we'd already picked out together, and I would find any reason to have it. We bought it yesterday.

Jessica Kovacs · April 2009

I was going to buy doughnuts for my team at work but this morning I wasn't in the mood for sweets so I bought a large hot tea and 2 bagels with cream cheese for myself instead. Oh well.

LillyBug923 · April 2009

I admit it, I pulled the pregnancy card yesterday!

Long story short, I mailed our car payment some time ago (2 weeks?) and Chrysler never recieved it. They have really tightened up on their policies and are now sending a first notice to Repo if you are just a little late on your payment. I get the letter in the mail, and I call. The man asks me if I have had a life style change, and I say "Yes, I am pregnant" and he asks if I felt that we could stay obligated to the contract we signed. I say Yes. But, then he continues to ask me these WT questions, and it kind of upset me because we could make our payment... but the check just got lost or something. I started crying (sort of forced it.....) and explained that I was pregnant and overwhelmed and I didn't mean to miss my payment.

He waived the late fees.

HerHighness · April 2009

I told my husband he had to go pump the gas yesterday because the fumes made me sick and I didnt think it was smart to inhale gas fumes when pregnant

I just didnt want to be stuck paying for gas yet again when he keeps using my car and burning it all. It cuts into my maternity clothes budget

kristeljade · April 2009

I don't want to buy this girl a bunch of frilly pink outfits, and I don't want people to buy her any. I loved dressing up my lil boy in the froggy and car outfits.

I'm totally still getting used to the idea of having a girl. I'm excited, don't get me wrong, just completely shocked, even still.

madameladauphine · April 2009

I cried for 2 days when we found out we are having a boy. Not because we're having a boy, but because we aren't having a girl. I really wanted a girl! But I'm absolutely thrilled about having a boy now!

stefani6124 · April 2009

My confession...

I have been going back and forth about how I'll feel if I get laid off (school district is considering massive budget cuts). We could survive on DH's paycheck and I'd love to have a whole year off before having to worry about daycare and going back to work. However, I love making a bunch of money and being able to buy whatever I want...

BlairWaldorf · April 2009

I'm looking forward to 20 weeks so I can have a glass of wine or champagne.

No clue why I picked 20 weeks as the "okay date," but I did. and I CAN'T WAIT.

ilenegrace · April 2009

I told DH when I found out I was pregnant that I could no longer pump my own gas because there are signs that say the fumes cause birth defects... but really I just didn't want to do it anymore. He's a good sport though and no questions asked has done it for me ever since.

poopteen · April 2009

I really don't care much about acquiring baby stuff. I had a ton of second-hand stuff tossed my way, so I have almost everything I need (so that she's clothed, fed, and has somewhere to sleep) but other than that, I've gotten kind of apathetic. I think I might just be in a slump where I'm kind of sick of the whole process.

I'm way behind on filing paperwork that BD and I really and truly need done.

Also, where I'm staying is a ridiculous mess, and I keep finding things I'd rather do (plant seedlings! take the dog to the park!) than clean.

Ugh. Apathy and zero discipline. Baby's making me lazy.

*JennP* · April 2009

My birthday was Wednesday and DH has been sick since Monday. He really is sick, but I was so mad at him for "ruining" my birthday. I know it was irrational, but all I wanted to do was go out to lunch with him and have a nice dinner at my parents' house (I ended up going by myself). He is usually so good about making a big deal out of my birthday and I figured this was the last one that I have where I don't have to worry about anyone else... my last day that is just mine to be selfish before the baby comes.

poopteen · April 2009

Oh, I'm also currently browsing on Frederick's of Hollywood online for scandalous lingerie to encourage me to work out more so I can get back in shape quicker after baby.

danie02 · April 2009

Don't worry about the name thing, 2 of my cousins are having babies before me, one at the end of this month and one in June and I'm due in Sept. No one will share names, and I really hope neither of them pick the names we have picked out, it took us so long to finally agree. I almost just want to tell them our name choices or post it on my facebook or something, just so that we're ok. But I won't I'll just wait and see, cross my fingers, and hope that we won't have to come up with a new idea. We're so attached to the names we have picked. Also, none of us know if we're having boys or girls, so it just makes the suspense so much more. LOL!!
