Re: Confessions...
Burned by the Bear
My sex life went from 0 to oh, yeah since our frequency thread a little while back. ::raises the roof::

I have to run most days or I go insane. Lately, CK has been in an, "I hate my stroller" phase. The only thing that'll get her through a run the jogging stroller is lots of her favorite snacks. So there I am, running, while CK stuffs her face. It's pretty hypocritical, no?
Oh, andplusalso, CK is on both ear and eye drops right now. The bottles are almost the exact same, and yesterday I accidentally put her ear drops in her eyes and her eye drops in her ears.
Congrats to your sister!!! Baby shopping is soooo much fun! I don't think my sister will choose to have children for a while, but she's only 23.
Same here. DH always does bathtime. It's their special time together, I say. It's so bad that DD associates the tub with MH. I took her into the bathroom with me the other night so I could change, and when she saw the tub, she bounced up and down and started yelling, "DADDY!!" over and over.
Not only do I plan Alastair's dinners around messiness and DH's availability for baths, but I also plan it around Shadow's preference. You better believe that he is getting non messy Shadow favorites for dinner when I am alone.
I would love that, too! A friend of mine is due in April and was stressed out 'cause she doesn't have time to research everything before she registers. I sent her a LOOOOOONG email about baby products (at her request) and the research I'd done.

I would be excited about this too! Especially now, knowing what you really need. I was overwhelmed when I registered, but now I think it would be fun. Of course my sister would be registered for everything I liked and used with DD.
Plus she's getting fresh air, which is great for her. I don't see anything wrong with it.

Tristen Rocks! (ha, ha!)
Don't feel bad, you are only 9 months PG.
At least he acknowledged that he doesn't know how i do it all.
On a positive note, I'm slimming down and took advice from my sister to check out the thrift store for a pair of jeans to transition to the next size down. Scored a pair of Seven's for only 14.
I got a laser hair removal system for Christmas. MH has been my spa assistant and zapping me. The first treatment we used a level 3, this last treatment I thought we should go to level 5 the highest. I literally jumped off the bed when he did my "tender womanly folds." It was like being snapped with a red hot electric rubber band. It left a nice red welt on the bits. I'm a trooper though and we turned it back down to a 3 and carried on. I'm shocked that it actually seems to be working too!
I had eyelash extensions for awhile but I got tired of paying $30 a month for the maintenance and going in and getting them touched up was such a time suck so I took them off. I missed them so I ordered a 20 pack of fake lashes off Amazon from China. They came in last night and I was so excited I brought them to work and put them on the (very public) bathroom. I must have looked crazy with my scissors and glue and eye makeup everywhere. My eyeballs will probably fall out but whatever, they look good.
I'm totally jelly. I hate my body hair! Pasty skin plus black body hair is not sexy.
I'm so pasty, I'm transparent. Which is great because when I shaved my legs you could still see the hair under my skin. I know it sounds sexy but it really is not.
I tried false eyelashes but I could not get them to look right, I felt like snuffleupagus when wearing them.
Do you have roadmap veins too?! I sure do. Advantage to being pale: my stretch marks blend into my skin tone.
Not so much with the veins(you can see them in my arms), but my stretch marks totally blend in.
I think L is ready to start potty training, or at least it would be a good idea to give it a shot and see what happens.. but honestly, I'm just too lazy to have to start something like that with her right now. I was actually ok with having 2 kids in diapers!
Also, while I was typing this out, L threw and entire bowl of Cheerios on the rug and continued to keep eating them off the rug filled with dog hairs. Yum.
Hahaha!
L is the same way. I get nervous that I'm going to cut her toes or something. Sometimes I find it easier to cut them when she is tired, but even that is tough!
I'm the same way. I had to give her a bath this week though, she was so messy/greasy I couldn't have her wait one more night for MH to do it. She didn't mind it so much, but holy crap, bending over a tub almost 7 months pregnant while trying to make sure L didn't fall (she refuses to sit nicely in the tub of course) was a workout!
Lol! You have to be careful when you buy them not to get huge thick ones or they feel and look super crazy. I used to have really long thick eyelashes but after I had E they started falling out and never grew back in as thick so most people don't notice that I'm wearing fake ones because they look like what mine used to look like.
This sounds awesome and may be instituted at my house.
DH and I took turns with baths until 6 weeks ago or so when I started having trouble getting up and down off the floor. I tried to give DD a bath once like 23 weeks ago and she freaked out and screamed bloody murder until DH came in and took over.
At the time, I was heart broken, but now, not so much. I'm wondering what it'll take to have DH permanently in charge of baths.
In the early days, DH and I did Lily's baths together. Since she was a month or two old, DH has done them on his own. I've given Lily a bath probably less than 5 times while visiting my parents and I usually got my mom to help. It's a nice Daddy-daughter time, and it gives me a nice break.
DH has less time with Lily since starting his new teaching job, so I suggested he do bedtime most nights to get some extra cuddles. Before this, he would do bedtime 1-4 times a month. I kind of miss doing bedtime, but I'm also enjoying getting the break.

My Violet loves coffee.
I hardly ever give Violet a bath(1-2x a month) She takes showers, and has since her cord came off.
E is the same! I finally pinned her down last night and clipped them while she screamed bloody murder.
I cut DS's when he is sleeping. My biggest issue with him is that he can not hold still for anything longer than 5 seconds so waiting until he is sleeping works great.
For my confession...There is a couple that takes their kid to the same daycare as DS and is now in the same Kindermusik class. Her husband is always nice and says hi but she will never say a word to me or even smile even when I say hello directly to her. My initial reaction is that she is an uber beotch but I have to remind myself that I don't know her and maybe there is a reason why she doesn't seem friendly or never speaks. It still bugs me though.
Sugar is a pain reliever. You should just feed her chocolate next time, less messy!
Lo is getting molars in and her mouth is so tiny that I actually thought she was getting 2 teeth in the same spot. Both sides of one of her molars are through but not the middle and one the side is pretty much in the roof of her mouth and only one little point is through and it looked like 2 different teeth. My SIL and I were holding her down the other day sticking our fingers in her mouth trying to decide if I needed to take her to a pedi dentist or not.
My BIL was in town for Christmas and stayed with us for 2 weeks. He left a beer in a koozie 1/2 drank on the table one night. In the morning while I was getting breakfast ready, Olivia comes in kitchen holding the bottle and drinking the beer. MOTY. My husband goes, hey it won't be the last time.
Li discovered coffee the other night. We were in a restaurant and she kept dipping her spoon into DHs cup and sucking on it.
He tried giving her a shower that night... Failed experiment, she hated if and he was soaked! I was thoroughly entertained watching the whole thing, though.
V usually goes in the shower w/ MH. He holds her. We started giving Audrey showers to try to keep her a wake when she was a baby, and had her days and nights mixed up. We found that showers were so much easier we vowed we were going to make this kid like them, and she loves them.
