BR: feeding her. she refuses being fed and must feed herself and takes forever to do so only for 98% of it to end up on her, in her seat, under the seat padding, smooshed into the wheels of the high chair, on the floor, etc.
NBR: toilets. *gag*

NBR washing the dishes
BR Using the nose sucker. He goes crazy. I feel like such a meanie making him stay still for it.
BR: Folding baby PJ's
NBR: Taking the dogs to the vet. Thank goodness it's only once a year, beause it's a hassle every time.
NBR: Cleaning the toilet
BR: Honestly...putting DD to bed. I only have a few hours a day with her and I hate putting her down.
BR: washing bottles every.single.day
NBR: putting clothes away. I don't mind (too much) to wash and fold, but for some reason I hate putting them away!
BR: Washing pump parts and bottles everynight. for some reason I just hate this. Maybe b/c I hate pumping?? Maybe pumping should be my answer actually.
NBR: work

BFP #3: 03/24/12: C/P 03/28/12

BR: Changing the bag in the diaper pail (gag) and suctioning DS' nose (he screams bloody murder and fights it)
NBR: Bills, bills, bills
big brothers 12.2009 and 02.2012
BR: It's a tie between putting her down for a nap and cutting her nails.
NBR: Washing the dishes, pots & pans, etc. that can't be put in the dishwasher. It's a PITA!
BR: Right now changing his diaper. He flips around and wiggles so much, and arches his back. I dread it! It's especially bad right after his bath changing him into his pjs, since he's tired and doesn't want to lay still at all. I know it will only get worse too...
NBR: tie between laundry and litterboxes
BR: Washing Bottles
NBR: folding laundry then having to put it away
BR: Getting him dressed, he fights it so bad
NBR: Cleaning the litter box or vaccuming
BR: Putting pants/shorts on him. It's even harder than getting his diaper on, and that's plenty hard. He flips, tries to stand, crawl away, etc. It's a major battle.
NBR: Paying bills, especially the rent, because there goes basically ALL our money. Also, the dishes and laundry, because they are NEVER completely done. It's like by the time I finish the dishes, there's another dirty bottle or cup or plate. And by the time I finish folding and putting away a round of laundry, there's already a new stack of dirty laundry piling up.
So effing depressing to never feel like anything is truly DONE.
NBR: Ironing
Baby: Bottle washing
Definately the in and out buckling and unbuckling of the car seat! PITA! But necessary!
Picking up the dry cleaning, unloading the dishwasher.
this
and NBR: commuting and hour each way to work, ugh.
NBR: Folding clothes and washing pots and other to-big-for-dishwasher items.
BR: Now, it's changing my daycare boy's multiple-times-a-day blowouts. Gross. I've never had to do that with DD, so it's new to me!
BR: Putting her down for naps. She screams bloody murder when I put her down for her afternoon long nap. But within 5 minutes though, she's out.
NBR: Sweeping/mopping/vacuuming the floors! I can't ever keep them clean.
This exactly!!!!!!
BR: Changing his diaper. He fights it like crazy. No toy, song, crazy face, or random changing table object distracts him long enough.
NBR: Scrubbing bathtubs. Bathrooms in general, but I really hate cleaning the tub/shower.
Baby Related: I definitely won't miss having to wash bottles
Non-Baby Related: sweeping and mopping the kitchen floor- I HATE this chore and normally beg DH to do it for me, which means it doesn't get done very often. This is why Tegan's not allowed on the kitchen floor until she can walk.
BR: either washing bottles or cleaning up her flash cards that she spreads to every corner of the house
NBR: keeping my tile floors clean- how do they get so dirty in 1 week!?!
NBR: Scrubbing shower/tub
BR: going anywhere in the car alone with him; he has a level 10 breakdown if he is in the carseat without anyone next to him...it is pure hell
NBR: litterbox!
BR: Changing her clothes! For some reason she throws a fit whenever I put clothes on her and when I take them off! Also buckling her in her car seat! She hates being strapped down!
NBR: Doing dishes.
