I do this too! I quickly hang the new clothes up in her closet before DH gets home and hope that he won't notice a few more outfits hanging in her already, overly crammed closet. I swear she's got her wardrobe for the next 2 years. I've already started buying clothes in 24 months since I have so many in the smaller sizes already! Oh, and I just bought 9 new hair bows from my friend who makes them...
DD is 2 months and we still haven't gotten around to getting her birth certificate! Oopsies!
We didn't get DS's until he was 18 months and we needed it to apply for a passport
Ok, now I don't feel so bad. Taking DD anywhere is still a PITA and I have no idea where the courthouse is either since we moved when I was 35 weeks pregnant and on bed rest so I really haven't gotten a chance to explore our new town.
Before getting pregnant/ before my boobs grew I would only wear fancy bras with a little bit of padding so you couldn't tell I was nipping out and they had to have underwire for support cause heaven forbid I get saggy boobs. Now I live in nursing tanks, and nursing sports bras. I nip like crazy and my boobs are flopping around because they're not really supported but I could care less. I'm comfy and it's convenient for nursing. Bring on the saggy boobs; I'm sure it will compliment all those stretch marks on my boobs. lol.

Wow, you have to GO get it? Ours are mailed to us.

I am getting my lady bits waxed today for the first time since I was PG with DS
My best friend is an esthetician and we did an at-home brazilian a few years ago - at her parents house, on their kitchen table. I didn't make it very far before I wussed out because it hurt so bad.

I only wear a bra when leaving the house. Even then, not always. Sometimes I'll just throw a hoodie on. I already had big saggy tatas before DS.

I'm about ready to get rid of my dogs (and I don't even believe it that). I've just had enough. They're driving me crazy! It's been cold and rainy out for the past couple days so they don't really want to go outside which means they've been playing inside instead. They keep waking up DD. It takes me about an hr+ to get her to sleep in the first place and now it's even worse cause she's so over tired. I let them play in the bedroom to try to let DD get some rest. Boy was that a mistake. I just walked in there to discover that they have completely torn up/destroyed our quilt. This is the 3rd quilt they've destroyed! Not to mention that 4 sets of sheets have chunks taken out of them and a few pillows have been de-fluffed as well. Every inch of the house is covered in mud (including the furniture which they're not even allowed on but have decided to ignore the rules) because our husky has been digging trenches in our backyard in an attempt to get to the moles.
I don't need this extra stress right now. DH has been working 7 day work weeks, getting up at 4 and not getting home till 10, for the past 2 weeks and just found out he has to work again this weekend. That means I've pretty much been on my own with the baby and the dogs. I'm exhausted. DD never sleeps (20 min catnaps during the day and wakes up almost every hr at night and it takes forever for her to fall back asleep once she wakes up-3 cycles of the sleep sheep set on 45 min!). I need a break and the dogs just aren't making things any easier.
They used to be well behaved and then DD was born and I think they're lashing out for attention or something. Ugh!
Ok, that was a confession turned vent but it was needed...
I am irriated that the PG weight went on so much easier than it is coming off. I've lost all but 14lbs (out of 45+) but I want my $200 Joe's Jeans to fit again, as well as the rest of my wardrobe. I can wear tshirts, sweatshirts, cardigans and workout clothes from my prepregnancy days and that is about it.
Here is my confession (please don't flame!): A part of me is afraid I'm never going to be a size 2 again and it makes me so sad to think about.

Lately we've been buying bacon and putting it in random things, like cookies and cakes and what now. Well, I made bacon cheese burgers the other night had have this wholethawed out pack of backon with 3 strips gone from it so I made a huge breakfast for myself. I had 2 giant pancakes and 3 strips of bacon. Now I really want to cook up the rest of the bacon and just eat it by itself. I'm not sure how I'd feel about myself if I ate 1 lb of bacon by myself. I'm not even hungry, my house just smells like it and it smells so good.
I hate the fact that my pants are too tight, but at the same time I am doing nothing about it... Also I think my butt grew again... My pants are tighter then they were two weeks PP...

I am getting my lady bits waxed today for the first time since I was PG with DS
I've never had my lady bits waxed.
I got my lady bits lasered. A little bit expensive, yes, but I have never looked back. I also haven't bought a razor or shaving cream in 3 yrs!
Would it be creepy if I asked you to post a picture? Just kidding, of COURSE that would be creepy!
Seriously though...tell me more. I'm interested about this whole laser thing.
It was so worth it. The place I went to cost $120 a session for 6 sessions (one every 6-8 weeks) and they did my legs, armpits and lady parts. You can probably just google a place in your area. Prices will vary depending on where you go. It hurts less than waxing too!
My husband just emailed me to tell me was going to be home late...( it's already 8 pm so later than norm), I will admit I was happy. He has been annoying me a lot lately! Does that make me bad???
DD is 2 months and we still haven't gotten around to getting her birth certificate! Oopsies!
They told us it wouldn't even be available until at least 2 months it sounded so far away at the time but I just realized she is over 2 months so we should probably see about getting it soon but I doubt it will happen until we need it for something.

Mine's pretty bad. It's January 27, and we still have our Christmas tree up. Neither DH nor I have had the motivation to take it down. We're having a Super Bowl party next weekend, though, so it will be down by then.

Had to go to the doctor this morning and I'm not gonna lie....the doctor's associate was HOT.
The appointment went well. But boy, was it a lot easier to get stuck with a needle when you have someone that good looking do it.
Did you laser your underarms and legs too?
I think FMIL is turning into an alcoholic like her BF and I'm okay with it because that just gives me another excuse to not let her watch DS
I'm too scared to ever get my lady bits waxed. I shave, but I would LOVE to get lasered.
I do the same thing but I hide them in my car and sneak them upstairs when he's not home..haha!
I was fired due to a huge mess with FMLA. What my company did is legal- barely.
I've decided that I really just don't care. I'm looking for a new job an enjoying my extra time with Addy.
I would seriously consider the laser thing for lady bits, underarms and legs. Maybe I'll ask for that for mother's day.
Waxing isn't cheap either. I'm sure the cost is quickly made up!
