  Lol @funkyphoenix! We were at saltgrass the other night and the hostess put down the paper and crayons. I said he can't use those and she giggled and said well he might want to chew on them. Oh lord I hope she doesn't have kids for a long time.

  Okay. I've debated for a few hours if I should post but I'm not one to bite my tongue so here goes.
  
  People only treat you how you allow them to treat you. At some point you have to say I am worth more to myself and to my child (children). Also we (women) can't play the victim all the time. Guess what folks a lot of guys don't get it. They never will. It isn't that anything is wrong with them but some of them just don't. You can't expect something more from someone than they are willing to give. It isn't fair to you or the other person. You will always be let down. I'm sorry so many of us are going through things and it sucks. But we have to collectively say fuck them and do what is best for ourselves. I say ourselves first because we can't help anyone of we are not right. I had to peel my ass off of the bathroom floor in the ugliest of cries because two people need me. I'm not saying anyone is in my situation but we have to learn to be stronger. It isn't about us anymore. Be strong and show them that no matter how they behave we can handle ourselves. I hope I'm not being an ass but that is just how I feel. Hopefully it doesn't fall on deaf ears. If anybody needs me I'm on FB and you can PM me. I'm not 100 % but everyday it gets better. It is also much easier by myself. You learn to be strong because you have to be.

   @jancandance I totally agree... and to add on, if a marriage is still worth fighting for: communication is KEY! My issue is that I expect my husband to read my mind. Not gunna happen. I'm working on telling him what I want/need and its so much easier that way. However, every couple has to find a communication style that works for them.

  Our very own @flerlgirl makes some great appearances 

  I'm surprised I didn't birth a turkey as many turkey sandwiches as I ate while pregnant. It was definitely a craving I had cause I haven't wanted them as bad since being pregnant.

  Gahhh, that girl made me mad

  So, 2 years ago I got brave and decided I wanted to make DD1's birthday cake. She always sees those cool barbie cakes where the dress is the cake and loves them. I was shocked at how well it turned out considering the fact I had NO idea what I was doing. Now, it's a thing for me to make the kids cakes. Her birthday is in a little over 2 weeks and she says a minion cake sounds cool. I now will spend the next 3 hours on Pinterest looking at cakes, making myself hungry, and then proceed to pin workout stuff to balance it all out.

  This day is shockingly random. Just gave Big B a bath and as I'm washing his hair, he leans forward, puts his face in the water and takes a big drink! Blechghghhh! It seriously happened so fast and I was hovering over him not sure what was happening for a second before pulling his head back! This kid is always trying to drink his bath water! He constantly sucks on the wash cloths, sponges, and anything that gets water in it. I constantly battle keeping things out of his mouth while trying to get all up in his rolls to clean him. It's a real adventure.

  Grayson does that too! And with the washcloth, we have the blow up duck bath tub and we'll put the washcloth on the head of the duck and he will reach for the wash cloth so he can suck on it! Such strange babies!!

  This was my first try: I started from the couch since I was doing it by myself. She seemed to like it and fell asleep after a bit. The main reason I got the mei tai was to do a back carry. I would love to get more into wraps but I just don't have a reason to use them enough, so I can justify spending anymore money on them..

  Same here. I would like more but I don't have any reason to get more. I do plan on using my mei tai more once it warms back up though!

  I found a wine trail half marathon in August I may just have to sign up for. At the end you get cheese, chocolate, and wine. You get a shirt, wine glass, and the medal is shaped like a bottle stopper. I feel like it may be a necessity to add that to my collection...

  I'm really digging the back carry with my ergo lately. I can sew without grabby mcgrabberson getting in the way. I had to look up how to get her in it by myself on the interwebs and I finally did it the other day. I was super pumped! Freedom! Luckily I have really short hair so my biggest issue is the huge pool of drool on my back, yuck

  I seriously thought LO had thrown up on me because of the wet spot on my back when I took him out for a walk back-carrying him in the ergo.  Nope.  Just drool.

  
  

  Also - turkey thread = crazy.  I feel like I got a prize for reading all the 8 pages of it though - fun gif to use later :-D  (Obviously has nothing to do with your post heelibrarian, I just had to share its loveliness!

  @nix55 I'm pretty cruddy... But not on my death bed. The thing is, if I go, my baby will sleep crappy (because she always does whenever we go) and since I am the only one who cares for her, at all, ever, I don't really want to do that and be sick at the same time, kwim? I won't feel guilt about not going. We are there every other month and to me that is overkill with a baby. And I hope this doesn't come across snarky, because its not meant that way.
  
  @jancandance I hear what you are saying.
  
  I feel like a broken record a little bit with all my h woes. Just don't know who else to talk to. I am actually an extremely independent person and in real life, I never ask for help. But when you are a SAHM there are a lot of sacrifices to your independence. It's been a huge adjustment for both of us since its the complete opposite of how things used to be. I have a feeling I need to get that independence back, and start working. I just hate to leave my little girl with someone else.

  I'm a huge lurker. Truth is I read all threads and keep up with mostly everything. I can relate to most things. Problem is I don't post often. My phone... By the time I get half the post complete I'm Distracted. I come back and I'm like "she said that". And well forget the internet site...hate it. I guess bottom line is I'll try to get in the groove b cause id like to post and get good FB. Long ...thanks.

  You guise. I have open house tonight to register DD2 for preschool in the fall. I know I'm going to walk in the classroom and remember the last time she was there (with DD1) was when she was LO's age. I predict tears. How did we get here? She's so big. I'm so sad. Call the wahhhmbulance.
