Re: Fffc
This is me as well.
Maggie watches Sesame Street and really likes it. We justify it by the knowledge it is "educational" TV.
I let anyone touch her, and I don't make them wash their hands. The dog licks her, we have dog hair all over our house and she's fine.
I don't remember the last time we cleaned our house.
mm 2/17/11 * dd born 4/20/12 * bo 1/3/14 * edd 1/21/ 1/15
And how do you star the posts? I've always wondered what the red stars mean and I've been too lazy to ask this too.
Ditto on the touching. My neighbor lady is super nice and we talk over the fence. Sometimes I let her grab DD from me and hold her on her side of the yard. Sometimes I think, wow, she could just run off and I couldn't get to her!
Whooops! Edit to MSPI.
Thx
They get the little red stars when they have a lot of views/replies. I haven't figured out the threshold but it seems to be around 300 views.
IMO it's one thing to hope for a baby of a certain sex (to each their own) but whenever someone says their preference out loud, I secretly ALWAYS hope they get the opposite. I think I am part evil.
I think it's worse for me when it is their first too, for some reason.
I have not been watching what I am eating too much lately and gained 2 lbs last month
I still have NOOOOOOOOOOOOO desire for sexy time at all
I am addicted to emoticons
ETA: I want to update my siggy but I am too lazy to spend the time, I am not very savvy and I screw it up every time. Oh well, maybe someday I'll get around to it.
haha that's awesome!
I'd rock the baby on top of the cart trick, but my car seat won't let me
I let just about anyone touch/hold my kid (except for total random strangers at a store) and I will not change that. Sorry, I don't think the germs are gonna get him, I don't think a perv is hanging out at my church waiting to get their hands on him, or any other scare tactic.
I'm not a big fan of my attitude right now, but I'm to tired/stressed to do anything about it.
I might tell my boss that daycare called and DD has a fever so I have to leave and pick her up....
I woudl then go home, take a nap and get ready for my girls night out.
I've often thought about this, but am too afraid to get caught.
my living room currently looks like this
and I don't give a fvccck.
This is terrible. I was actually disapointed for a second. ONE SECOND!!! I really wanted a girl, i dont know why. Now though i want all boys because Louie is so amazing, and gender preference is stupid. But when you are a FTM and dont know what to expect i think its normal to be hoping for a certain gender.
Do it! Have fun tonight, get a little cray.
Me too, I am not very nice right now. Not that I am being a megabitch or anything, but I am not really going out of my way to be kind to people. I need an attitude adjustment and more time in my day.
Do it! Sounds like you didn't get much sleep due to the rolling party DD had and you need to be well rested for your activities tonight
Semi-related: Yesterday at Target they had political greeting cards
KEEP CALM AND VOTE ROMNEY
^^ really?
and 01-04-2013 The last day Obama is in office (I'm sure I'm off on the date but you get the drift)
I thought this was so weird. And couldn't think why anyone would actually want one.
That is normal, I agree but I guess I really mean the people who are annoyingly vocal about it and make it seem like the other sex (that they don't prefer to have) is not as great. Then I wish them the opposite so they can learn to just be happy with what they get.
My confession: despite both of us being fairly opposed to bed sharing, it happens on rough nights. Both babies have stuffy noses, and last night Etta ended up in bed with hubby and I was on the nursery futon with Claire. Related: I am now sore as heck.

What it's like to cloth diaper twins, Part I.
Cloth diapering twins, Part II.
Have fun!! We are going to a wedding next Saturday and L is staying with my mom so I plan to get drizzunk. And I rented a Halston gown to wear. I'm so freaking excited.
My husband and I don't sleep in the same room most of the time since the baby. He snores so loudly, it makes me really angry to try to sleep next to him. Even with earplugs in I can hear it.
When a situation presents itself where we will have to share a room (aka his Mother stays over or this weekend we have a wedding and will have to stay in one room). It makes me anxious thinking about how I will get even less/worse sleep than usual.
I am embarassed to admit this to people IRL I'm not sure why. We have a great marriage in general (though I do sometimes speak to him disrespectfully and sometimes take a bit too long in fetching his sandwiches)
I was hoping for a boy. Because I was scared of eventually having a teenage girl, because I was once a teenage girl.
I am happy. She is healthy happy baby girl who wears cuter clothes than me.
But I still hear my mother saying "One day, you will have a daughter and she is going to treat you like you treat me"
I used to do it until one day the carseat almost jumped out of the top. If my H hadn't been next to her I don't know what would have happened.
I don't think mine are super flamey but whatever
If my last name was Pickles I would totally name my child Dylan and call him Dyl. Yes, we've been watching Rugrats in the mornings.
I also love the name Ezra. But my husband would probably never go for it. Side note, Ezra Miller is foxy moxy.
When people come to my house that I don't recognize I get up, close the blinds, make sure the door is dead bolted, and ignore. Sometimes they see me through the window before I close the blinds but I don't care. I have a baby in here and a nutso Boston terrier that is going to try to run out of the house if I open the door.
Remember that cat I was going to rescue forever ago? My husband has now decided that a cat is too much responsibility and if we want to TTC next year we shouldn't get one. I get that..kinda. But I also hope that the neighbor's cat that has been living under our back deck is pregnant and leaves behind some kittens. If one was at our house already he would never be able to say no to it.
Lol, I had a George W. countdown to last day in office keychain.
my confession is that I am being a terrible mom today. It is our last day of "summer vacation" (Kindergarten here does split first days, so half the kids go Thursday, half Friday, then all on Monday, so DS1 is home today). DH starts traveling internationally on Monday for basically the rest of the month and hasn't gotten home before 11:30 PM the last 3 nights (which of course then wakes me up and adds to my exhaustion). DS2's naps are whack a doo lately. So, I just let DS1 watch 3 Ninjago episodes in a row and also just let DS2 cry for 6 minutes after he woke from nap #1 too early. I think he is back asleep. Sorry, but I just need to sit for a while and not deal with children. I'll be a better mom this afternoon.
My confession is we are on a serious budget since we are building a house and I bought a bunch of clothes yesterday and only told H about half the stuff. I feel really guilty for some reason whereas I normally would not.
Hahahahhaha
Aw, I bet your friends loved that time with cuddly babies!

What is the name of this mouth guard?? Is it uncomfortable for them? Sometimes his snoring is so bad, and sometimes he doesnt snore at all. I dont understand.
eta: I spend 100 bucks on an anti-snore pillow from brookstone, and it did jack shiiit.
How random... It makes me suspect every baked good. Nothing is safe!
Thank you for posting this! I needed to see that other mom's houses look like mine. I had a major b!tch fit last night b/c our house looks like a tornado came through every room! DH just laughed and said it doesn't matter.
1-I am disappointed that the FFFC started so early today and is already three pages long and I am just now posting. I am trying to be more active on the board because I like the friendship I see among everyone and want to be a part of it but feel like I just can't make it happen. I thought if I actually was able to make it to the FFFC and UOs when they started it would be a good start.
2-I ordered a Petunia Pickle Bottom diaper bag off of Amazon the other day even though they're ridiculously overpriced, we can't afford it, and we don't need another diaper bag/purse right now (though I did get it for nearly half price).
3-My boss is on vacation this week and thus I do not plan on being that productive today. Nor have I been even close to productive earlier in the week.
4-DH was sighing loudly early this morning in bed. I knew it probably meant that I was snoring and bothering him and I should roll over. I chose not to roll over because I knew he would get up and move to the couch and I could settle in comfortably in the middle of the bed.
Oh em gee!!! This is really gross. You poor thing!!! i feel your pain though, once i was dropping my MIL off at the airport, and i had to pull in and park and run into the airport because i was literally going to shiiiit my pants. I had serious prairie dogging going on. I was so scared, and was sweating so bad. I made it, but barely.
Me, too!!
Me too on the GWB countdown, although mine was a bumper sticker pinned to my cubicle wall (I worked in Europe at the time) . It prevented people from lining up whenever he made a speech to ask me what the deal was with my president.
And you're not being a terrible mom. sounds like you've had a crazy couple of weeks and are in for more of that. have a giant cup of coffee and relax when you can:)
This is exactly us, ear plugs, no one IRL knows and fetching sandwiches too.
People want that because they think it's cute and it makes them kinda stupid.
It annoys the crap out of me that everyone is so rude about Obama. He is the president, he deserves respect as that weather you like him or not. I think the people bashing him saying that they are patriotic are actually being the most unpatriotic jackasses.
