Last night I baked a cake for a coworker and had to carve it out quite a bit. We had a huge plate of cake leftover. DH walks in and says "Avery and I could tear this cake up."

I told him "Avery is on a diet, remember?"

He said "Everyone gets a cheat day."

LMAO!! We talked about Avery at dinner last night too.

yeah - she was so taken with Jacob's b-day cake. I had cake and purple frosting all over my kitchen last night. H ate cake and frosting and today has a stomach ache. Wonder why...

i wonder if my little one is actually sleeping. I need a monitor like V's. I have monitor envy.

Me too.

I think I need a new stroller. We hadn't used a stroller in Houston in probably 9 months. Now that I'm walking everywhere, I have to use one for Hannah, or else a) it takes forever to get anywhere, or b) I end up having to carry her everywhere. The little umbrella stroller I have was fine in Houston for the zoo or the mall or whatever. But the thing is NOT built for heavy use. The wheels look like they're going to fall off any minute.

this morning Addie woke me up by walking over to my bed and gagging. i managed to run her to the bathroom before she got sick.

however, she keeps asking for jice or cereal but immediatly after every bite she throw up. and it is the most awful stuff I've ever seen. poor kid. i don't want to starve her but don't know what to do. plus they're painting downstairs so we can't even get ice from the freezer. everything is shut down

Nanner · August 2009

Aw, poor Addie! I hope she feels better. I have to say though, that your story reminds me of the horror I used to feel when I'd wake up to the sound of my cat about to puke on top of me in bed.

charlotteL · August 2009

Not sure what I was thinking. I ordered some clothes for the boys and got them in on Thursday. I bought each of them a white shirt. All I can see are stains galore.

Awesome story:

My sister was playing with her 2-year old son, and she was holding him and laughing, and he said, "Mommy, you need a mint."

How is Alex 3 already? I just can't believe how fast time goes by. How is it possible that I have been a parent for 3 years?

I know! It goes by so fast. He's such a little man!

I can't believe Sam is starting kindergarten next year.

Someone told me yesterday she considers my baby a surprise baby. How since we had gotten off the pill and intended to get pregnant, I ask - her reply floored me. "Because you weren't expecting it for months."

True, we weren't. But I don't consider my pregnancy a surprise - we were shocked yes but we had planned on getting pregnant. She confuses me.

I don't feel like I am putting as much effort into Gabriel's birthday as I did for Joshua's.

JamicanBride · September 2009

We had a meet & greet at G's MDO last night. So Dh and I were chatting with the teacher and G was right by us playing with some toy or other, the teacher then walks away in mid conversation comes back with a tissue and proceeds to wipe G's nose....n-i-c-e. I was mortified. I didn't notice that my own kids nose was runny but his new teacher did, I guess is a good thing. But geeze can I be any more negligent?

Nanner · September 2009

I had to cut off my fingernails to figure out how to undo the buckle on this new stroller. I guess it's a safety feature so the kid can't unlatch it, but if it's that difficult for an adult to do it, maybe you've gone too far.

PSA, Mr. Clean Magic Eraser DOES remove permanent marker from wood but it DOES NOT remove permanent marker from leather. Tongue Tied

PSA #2, remember to keep all permanent markers out of toddlers' reach.

I'm glad to hear it went well!

It has been raining here all day, and it is really zapping my energy. All I've been doing all day is sleeping and watching TV! the place is a mess, but I can't bring myself to stand up and start cleaning. Well, the kids are napping now, so maybe I'll go back to sleep again. lol

This is me on a regular basis these days and I hate it!! My house is a constant mess, and for as long as I've been a SAHM, going on 3 years I've never been a napper until now. I use the excuse of Gideon needing me lay with him so I can nap. I need to break the cycle and start becoming productive again.

Jamican, just give into it! You're still in the first trimester, right? You know how it is. 2nd trimester comes and you'll get your energy back. Your body needs some rest right now.

Have I told you lately how happy I am for you?

Nanner · September 2009

Oh, here's something funny. I've gained some weight in the last year or so, and for the last 6 months it seems like it's all going to my tummy (Well, my butt too, but we wont' talk about that.) And it's high in my tummy, so I really look pregnant, especially when I wear dresses.

Well the other night, I felt this sensation in my abdomen that felt JUST like a baby moving. It was so strange. Then the next night, I was playing with the kids, and Sam shot me with his pretend ray gun, and I fell to the ground. When I got up, I was so dizzy. And I stayed dizzy and kind of nauseous for the rest of the night. And I started thinking, "What if I'm one of those women who don't even know their pregnant?" I've had periods but they've been very short. Kind of heavy on day 1, and then it starts letting up the next day, and by the end of day 3, it's gone.

I actually took a pregnancy test, I was so freaked out! It was negative.

charlotteL · September 2009

ummm Jamican...where was this announcement? Did I miss it?

charlotteL · September 2009

Gabriel got all these great new things to play with. Well Joshua has claimed them as his own and given gabriel two straws. They both seem to be happy with the trade.

JamicanBride · September 2009

hehe....yeah, it was easily missed, Charlotte. It was in a "what would Nesties be surprised to know about you" post last week. So another March baby on the way.

Oh that is too funny. Is it bad that I am secretly hoping that you are pregnant? I just think that would be the coolest thing, although I am sure you would disagree....lol.

Why did I think it would be fun to take a vacation with a 2 1/2 year old and a 4 month old? This is just a flipping disaster and waste of money.

Orion has done nothing but throw tantrums day and night because he can't handle the change of staying somewhere else. If I had a dollar for the number of times he's asked us to go home I'd be rich. We haven't been able to do any of the fun tourist things. Yesterday I had to pin him down to put sunscreen and a swim diaper on him so we could go to the lake. I could have sat at home and watched him cry for free.

And Calla has been waking up every hour the past two nights so I'm running on no sleep. I think I'm ready to go home and back to work.

Ugh, Savannah I am so sorry! That sounds like hell. We had a similar experience when my kids were the same ages. Like putting cash in the shredder.

I didn't even have a party for Sam's 3rd birthday, except for a little celebration at home with just the 4 of us. Embarrassed

Ditto. and we can't ttc. I don't know how to stop thinking about it. But this $1000 to try out this new bc patch is helping a teeny bit. at least for the 4 months of the study.
