FFFC

mesrmesr
in June 2011 Moms

last night i was giving DH crap because he mentioned wanting to buy a meat thermometer -- i argued that it's one more thing to store in the kitchen, i know i won't get any use out of it, and i don't want to spend money on it.

then i went out and bought myself a new pair of shoes.

 

anyone have anything more juicy?

    I can't think of one right now, but you sound like me! I'll argue with DH and then do the opposite of what I said, usually without even realizing it!

    Thought of one.. On nights that DH closes for work he doesn't get home till about 1030, DS goes to bed between 8-830. I usually sit on my butt and watch TV until DH calls me on his way home and then I run around like a crazy lady trying to clean up so it doesn't look like I sat and did nothing for 2 hours! And I really don't feel guilty about it! :)

    SIL had a baby on Sunday. She lives about 9 hours away, so we decided that DH would go up with his family to visit and I would stay back with the baby. He's been gone for two days and I really haven't started missing him (too much) yet. My Mom has been stopping by after work each night to help until J goes to bed (not that I really need it). Tonight she and my dad are bring over pizza and tomorrow my mom is going to watch the baby for a couple hours while I go do some stuff. Honestly, life has been easier with my mom's constant help then having DH around.

    I feel the same way when DH is gone and my mom comes to stay.  She is so helpful and takes the lead to do the laundry, clean, cook, empty the dishwasher, get DD out of her crib when she wakes up in the morning so I can sleep in a little.  It's so nice and wish DH would make an effort to do some of the same things without being prompted.

    BFP #2: 7/23/14 - MC: 8/28/14
    BFP #3: 2/22/15 - MC: 3/3/15
    BFP #4: 5/20/15 - Stick baby stick!!!

    I'm glad to have someone understand! You know what I do miss? My car. DH drove my car because it gets better mileage. I've been stuck driving his truck around and trying to get DD in and out of her car seat is a pita.

    DD was one of the babies who would only drink water from any sort of sippy.  I finally broke the habit!  I figured I needed her to drink ANYTHING from the sippy but water to realize it was OK.  Well one night she really wanted my "Kiddie Coctail" and I figured since it didn't have caffine and was basically the same as giving her juice, I would put some in her sippy.  I didn't think she would actually drink it TBH but she did and I was actually proud of her!  I was then able to get her to drink OJ and then some strawberry milk and now white milk.  We are finally over the only water hump and I totally atribute it to the pop and am OK with that since it was a one time thing but know others will disagree.

    BTW it is in a hard spout Playtex sippy whereas her water is in a Playtex straw cup, but the pop was also in the straw cup... weird child. (but maybe others will find this helpful??)

    I do this just about everyday.  DH takes the train into work so I always know what time he gets home at night.  About a 1/2 hour before I get as much done as I can.  The only problem is Ben makes it a little more difficult these days.

    We have been ttc, been really trying the last 3 mos. I'm not even pregnant I hope I can get pregnant but I sorta don't want to have another boy. My husband wants to name a son(if we get lucky for another) after him that would make this baby a 4th.

    I give my LO Uncrustables and hot dogs for lunch. Every time I open the wrapper for the sandwich I cringe a little knowing what is in them, but I don't really care. He eats them and loves them!

    Good luck with that... I've never understood carrying on someone elses name. I've always believed that a person should be able to build their own legacy & not have to live up to or get away from the problems the one before them created. I made sure that DH & I were on the same page with that because I told him that even if he wanted it, too bad because I wouldn't allow it.
