I love the fact that I just got AF. I hate the whole crap that comes with it, but it's one week a month where I don't have DH trying to get into my pants:) Also I gave DD half a tablespoon of carrots yesterday. I gave her a bit to taste and she kept opening her mouth like a little bird. It was way to cute so I couldn't help myself ::looks away in shame:: hehe

Re: Because I am up FFFC!
I will be okay with AF for that same reason and the assurance that I'm not pregnant again, lol.
My confession: We are going to have to throw away some thanksgiving leftovers this year. My BFF, mom & boss all brought us dinners. We seriously have an entire 10 pound turkey for just the 2 of us. I'm gonna get sick of eating turkey before we can eat it all. I feel bad wasting it, but there's just no way. Anyone wanna come over for lunch?
Black Friday Edition:
I was hoping to get the deal on an Xbox online at Walmart.com but it never went on sale! It was supposed to go on sale at 12:00am, but kept saying "not available". I was a little peeved because I could have been in bed at 8pm so I could wake up early and get in line for the Kmart deal on an Xbox. I said screw it and went to bed.
LO wakes up at 4am for a feeding. As I'm giving her a bottle and waking up I thought to myself "I should just go to Kmart and try to get that Xbox". I knew by the time I got there that the line would be long. Oh yeah people were camped out since 11pm and I was about 100 people back from the door, at least.
So my confession:
I walked up to a couple girls that were about 8 people back from the door and offered them 20 bucks to let me stand with them.
They were more than happy to accept the $20. I told them they could split it- 10 bucks a person. They were there for discounted slippers and that money would cover the cost of the slippers.
I ended up being the first person to get an Xbox and there were only about 8 or so available (maybe less?). If I would have had to wait in line where I was originally at I never would have got one.
Well, the girls got their "free" slippers and I got my Xbox. Win-win!
Freeze some of the turkey! DH got a 21 lb turkey for free from work so we cooked it and froze one whole breast and both drumsticks!
My confession: I don't have much of a problem dropping DS at DC everyday but watching him get passed around yesterday gave me major anxiety. He is getting baptized tomorrow and I know I'll have to deal with it again tomorrow. I trust my family but I just want to keep him to myself.
lol mandy ur awesome. i don't think i would have ever thought to pay someone to stand with them. but who in the hell waits in line overnight for some SLIPPERS!?!?!
i can't think of a confession right now, i'll come back later.
This is so hard, DS was fussing and my aunt and cousins were trying but they just don't know DS like I do...
I was going to ask the same thing - I mean slippers? Really?
Ditto this. I am usually soo attached to DD but she's been really fussy lately & I've been overwhelmed. I enjoyed having empty arms and letting other people hold/feed/change/cuddle her more than I should have. I felt a little bad because I spent practically no one on one time with her yesterday.. so today we are doing nothing!
I have yet to get on any form of birth control.
Part of me is secretly excited at the possibility of getting pregnant again any time now. Except that is highly unlikely, seeing how AF didn't return until 11 months pp after I had DD1. Still. I *almost* bought a pregnancy test at the store this morning.
I'm currently hiding out at my ILs with DS - he's sleeping and while I could hold him upstairs with everyone - I'm nervous b/c all of his cousins are coughing. One month until daycare and we'd like to keep him from getting sick at least until then...I want more time to strengthen his little immune system!
My family (mine and the ILs) would think me totally paranoid if they knew how nervous I am about this stuff.
I'm so glad I'm not the only one! I seriously had major momma bear issues with past week with my IL's. My MIL invited 50 people over from 7am until 11pm and would grab the baby and hand it to people I had no idea who they were! It was so frustrating because I would think we were done and then the door would ring. I didn't get to eat for two days, baby didn't get any naps, and now has major diaper rash because I couldn't get to her fast enough to change her! It was a NIGHTMARE and my DH thinks I'm just being a brat by being upset about it. LEAVE MY BABY ALONE! Oh...and seriously people...wash your hands!
I ate ice cream for breakfast this morning.
I let my grandma's caretaker hold my LO for 2 hours during our Thanksgiving gathering. It was great!
I ate Pumpking Pie for breakfast.
I let DS lick some mashed potatoes yesterday. He didn't really like it. I gave him a little more because I thought his face looked cute! He still didn't like it the second time.
