I am sitting here eating Crunch N Munch Caramel that I just got in the dollar section of Target.
Target has a dollar section?! Where have they been hiding this?!
And now color me embarrassed since I forgot all about the dollar spot until after I hit "Post"................blame it on mommy brain, always blame it on mommy brain!
I feel really bad about lying to our family about when we plan to start TTC but we already feel so much pressure from them to have a baby that we don't want the "Are you pregnant?" questions every month while we are trying.
Completely understand. You don't have to tell anyone if you are not comfortable! Honestly, IMO it is no one's business when you want to start a family. And I agree that the added pressure isn't fun.
I totally get you, Sandy!
Aside from you guys, very few people know we are TTC. While I'm not being secretive about it, I don't want the questions either!
Target has a dollar section?! Where have they been hiding this?!
It's usually by the front door when you walk in.
As excited as my mil is about coming down next week, I'm not feeling it one bit. I know she means well and just wants to be around Mikey and me during what would have been Gary's 34th birthday but I'm NOT feeling the whole entertaining thing right now. Oh and the woman NEEDS to get a job. I'm tired of hearing her complain about how she doesn't know how she can pay her bills because her unemployment keeps going down. Ummmm if that's not a sign I don't know what is.
I have a confession, even though I successfully breastfed DS for 8 months with no problems except for his food allergies I don't want to do breastfeed my next baby. I probably will anyways over guilt and because DH is a breastfeeding nazi (for real) but don't think I will past 2 months or so.. part of the reason is because of the nursing in public stigma. I was never comfortable doing that or around my family so I hated always having to find private places and my family giving me hell for leaving the room a lot
I keep on coming on here to see the new posts when I should really be working. Mel this was such a great idea.
I must confess I peeked once and didn't post. So here is another confession....I'm addicted to Post its. They are all over my desk. I have terrible memory so it's the only way I can remember stuff.
Mel- this is torture that you semi spill the beans then back out on telling us. That's like giving us blue balls!
I got AF on Sunday so my plans for Vday were flushed down the toliet! And now I'm waiting for the b!tch to leave.
My pants that I have on today, the zipper broke while I was pregnant with Alejandro- since I refused to buy more clothing for the pregnancy but i still wear them! I just need to make sure to zip that puppy up when leaving my cubicle!
Here's my confession, nothing juicy. Leanna mentioned she has something on the front door so her DD can't open it. Well, when I left her house after the PJ GTG, it took me a few minutes to figure out how to open the door! I thought I was going to have to go back and ask her to open the door for me! lol. I'm an idiot at times.

I HEART MY NESTIES AND BUMPIES! I need a bumper sticker.
I just turned my mom down. She just told me that, for her birthday, she wants to pick up Sophie on a Friday night and keep her until Sunday morning. I told her that it ain't gonna fly. We work all week...our weekends are time to spend with Sophie. How depressing would it be for me to be home, not on vacation, and my child be elsewhere without me? I am so not ready for that!

Yvette's first two posts cracked me up. I am super jealous - I wish I could learn to pump handsfree! I do both sides at once and I have to hold everything in place.
I was shocked when I read that someone didn't know about Target's dollar spot and then relieved when it was just a case of pregnancy brain lol
Cynthia's pregnant hooker confession disturbs me.
Mel and Cyn are both huge teases!!!!
My confession: I became addicted to lemon lime Gatorade during my
pregnancy and I can't stop drinking it. I have a couple of glasses throughout the day and usually two big, full glasses before I go
to bed at night. I know this can't be good for me and I should cut it out of my diet but I crave it so bad
Ok here's my confession...I'm wearing jeans today that have the zipper broken off completely. So ugh yeah that area is all open. I just love the way they make me look skinny. It makes me look 2 sizes smaller than I really am, so that makes it worth it to me. I'm wearing a shirt that covers it, but it just so happens I ran into someone I haven't seen in a while and she wanted to see my DS and when I went to pick him up I didn't realize my shirt lifted and yeah you could see it all. LOL
The sad part is that I didn't even care, because hey I look skinny. LOL
For those wondering, yes I have underwear on so she just saw the material. By the way, do they fix these kind of things at the dry cleaners? I really need to get a zipper put back on, just haven't had the time.
I love the summer... it is our peak vacation time! We have 2 trips planned for sure (booked) and now am planning for my bday trip, so #3.
I'm sooo jealous!!! We have one vacation planned...Chicago for DH's bday. I'll be away for 3 days...& we are going w/o Izzy. I know I'm going to miss her to death but at the same time, DH & I need a romantic vacation.

I would say no too, buuuuuut, just to be devil's advocate, you could probably plan a nice weekend "staycation" with Abel...
Yeah, Abel would say NO faster than me. LOL. He is less inclined to let her sleep anywhere and when we do he tells me he misses her every 5 minutes - which is how it was the night she slept in my parent's hotel room at Disney. He drove me nuts.

Goodness, this post is as addicting as crack....not that I would know, just saying
Anyway, here are my confessions'
1. I'm pumping & bumping
2. I'm dying to know what Mel's secret is
3. I didn't make my bed this morning
4. I tried on my bridesmaid's dress for SIL's wedding yesterday and it was only a little bit big. I was hoping for it to be a lot big It also made me realize that y a$$ needs to get back in the gym or at least in the living room with some workout videos. :9
5. My pre-pg pants still don't fit right. They go up, but a "muffin top" is something you eat, not something you try to hide with long flowy shirts LOL
...ok, that's 5 confessions...should keep me covered for a little while

Yeah but if we go away for that night DH wants his mom to watch her overnight since she has never kept her overnight before and my parents had her for 5 days when we went to CA.
Not looking forward to breaking that to my mom. LOL.
I guess this is a good problem to have - so many people love my daughter!

i peeked..so confession..we were going to start ttc and im disappointed that with our situation at the current time it has been put on hold "until further notice"
Mel, are you having triplets?? Or, maybe you know someone having twins?
So, my brother-in-law has been living in China for ~5 years and he came back to the States 2 weeks ago for a visit. He brought everyone a huge surprise ... his wife and a 20-month old daughter! He never told anyone about them, and my "niece" is only 6 months younger than Quinn! He was supposed to stay with us in MD but the major snowstorm forced him to spend both weeks in FL with my in-laws. I can only imagine my husband's face if we opened the door expecting to see my brother-in-law and there he was standing with a wife and kid that we didn't know about!

Oh no! Well, to be on the positive, you are having more Mady and Mom time! Hope things change quickly for you.

The targets near me all have the section near the entrance.
