Back from vacation...did I miss the crazy holiday recap?

I tried scrolling through the older posts to see what craziness went down, but couldn't find anything, so I thought I would share mine.

There aren't that many, but:
1. At Christmas breakfast my FIL gave DD a pile of scrambled eggs.
2. MIL while baby sitting changed a poop diaper and didn't use wipes.  I came home  and changed her diaper, saw the residue everywhere.  I asked her why she didn't use wipes, she said she couldn't find them.  They were on top of the changing pad and clean diapers, that she very obviously used.
3.  Family constantly asking me when I'm going to lose the baby weight.
4.  I had an anxiety attack because this genius decided to see the tree at Rockerfeller on Dec. 22.  What was I thinking?

PS do I have to re-intro since I was gone for a couple of weeks?

  • Sounds like you had an awesome holiday! Can't believe your number 3. That's terrible. If you want to read some funny stuff, there was a thread called "sh*t my family says"

  • Not in defense of anyone who made the comment, because I was VERY upset, but prior to getting pregnant I had lost 50 lbs.  I had made a huge deal out of wanting a lifestyle change before I had kids so I could practice what I preach.  After baby, I have had 0 motivation to lose the 50 lbs I gained back.  They frame the comment to sound supportive "How's weight watchers going?  Did you go back?" or "At least you know how to lose the weight you've gained."  I don't think any of it comes from a malicious place, but it was definitely hurtful.

    Clearly your MIL couldn't, you know, find something else to wipe with. Wow.
