@CL8badB - I LOVE coffee but can only drink decaf. I am a crazy bitch when I drink caffeine. It makes me argue with people and say whatever is on my mind. I have no filter. Whenever I really want some and can only get regular I tell someone around me to make sure I shut up for a few hours until it goes through my system.
We have N's allergist appt this morning. Not sure what to expect - if they will go ahead and test her or what. Hoping to get some answers! I feel bad for her, she's not getting much of any fruit for fear of allergies.
@subliminalrabbit if you want some 12 month pants to hold you over until you shop for his next size, we have a ton I can send you. We are in 18 month everything.
Another tip is leg warmers to bride the gap between socks and pants that fit in the waist but not the length
@NaChelleBeck - That is so cute! A few weeks ago KJ fell asleep so close to the corner of her crib that we couldn't see her anymore. We kept joking that she jumped out the crib and ran away. LOL
@subliminalrabbit we were in 3 month clothing until he was 6 months, 6 month clothing for a month, and now in 9-12. It's a shame because he had a lot of 6 month clothing that he never got to wear. He just ate himself out of them too quickly! :-q
I'm done with this RSV crud. J was up most of the night cause her nose was stuffed up and she couldn't get comfy. She didn't eat anything cause she couldn't breathe out of her nose...I'm exhausted and want my happy baby back now.
Eta to add that using the nose bulb ends up with her screaming and fighting us on it. It's horrible
Jameson woke up an hour and a half before his normal time and is super cranky and tired, nothing i do is comforting him at all. So im sitting here with a squirmy screaming baby hoping he just cries himself to sleep. Not fun.
@Numbersgirl08 did she have a reaction to something already?
@micabush - Yes, she had pears a few weeks back and her right eye started to swell. I'm allergic to pears so my first thought was allergies. I called the pedi then and they said to watch it carefully and referred us to an allergist. But then her eye stayed swollen for awhile and I think she might have bumped it on something instead of it being a reaction. Who knows! But since then we've been avoiding giving her anything that I'm allergic to (which is a lot unfortunately - peaches, pears, strawberries, applies, cherries, soy, kiwi, and the list goes on...) I'm hoping we can get some kind of answers from the allergist today.
GL @numbersgirl08 I'm allergic to tons of fruit too and so far DD seems good with everything. Lucky girl, I want some pears! Do you have a reaction when fruit is cooked? Sorry if this is too intrusive, but I can't have raw apples and cooked one are fine. I always wondered if this was common.
Well - I used to be like that. I couldn't have raw apples but could eat cooked apples. Then I had an official allergy test and learned what all I was actually allergic too and realized that a lot of the stomach issues I'd been having were probably due to my allergies. The cooked stuff wasn't giving me acute reactions like raw stuff was but I think it was still messing with me. So I avoid it all completely now. Which is a big bummer because there are so many yummy things made with fruit! (and nuts and soy, which I'm also allergic to).
Did anyone else's LOs sort of skip right through 9 mo clothes? I'm afraid E is going to be in them for like a month at the rate he's filling out. His pants already seem tight and he's only been in them for like a week. Tops fit perfectly which means they won't fit soon. And he has so much cute stuff from the MIL, BOO.
Yup! We had a few things in 9m size and she barely wore them. Luckily most of the gifts were smaller or bigger so it didn't matter that we moved straight to 12m.
We might move out of 9mo soon too- we were in 6mo forever and just started 9mo but some of the clothes already fit tight! I know she had a growth spurt after Christmas because there is a noticeable height difference and she's thinned out.
@subliminalrabbit We also were in 9m clothes for two seconds. I really should have moved her to 12m a few weeks ago but was trying to stretch it as long as I could. I gave in last night and ordered her a bunch of new clothes and am nervous that it will get warm here before she outgrows them and I will have to buy even more 12m clothes. At least in SoCal you don't have to worry about seasons too much.
O lawd. I was just nursing Ty and he opened his mouth and the roof of his mouth was all white and looked like curdled milk, cue mommy freak out...it was a piece of paper he must have chewed while hanging out with daddy before. What the hell kid, are you a goat?
Ugh, just found out last night that my hubby is deploying again in Aug , so glad I finally get to celebrate our birthdays with each other but we were hoping to be pregnant again soon and if it happens it means he will miss another birth. I have such mixed emotions about it all right now. Also he has his re-enlistment coming up soon and then we have less than a year to pick new orders. Im secretly hoping we get orders to CA or WA so we can be close to my family again for a few years.
I just went to get my hair done and the color looks great but I asked for 1.5 inches off and layers. She took about 3.5 inches off now its to short to curl and I'm so upset (. I know it will grow but damn!

Oh bless you. Through a series of bad hair cuts my hair has been the same length for almost 2 years. I want to cry every day when I go to do it, so I usually pull it back in a bum ponytail. I totally understand!
Thanks ladies, it's really not a "bad haircut" it was just the longest it's ever been and grows really slow. So I'm sad to think about how long it will take to grow back out. Why are hairdressers so obsessed over getting all the dead ends?! :-q
Both kids were napping at the same time (rare occurrence) and it started to thunder. Now they are both up. It is snowing too.
One of my college sorority sisters asked me to host a Stella and dot trunk show. I feel like I can't say no otherwise id be rude but I hate being invited to these home parties and I certainly don't want to host one.
I may need to use some of @jancandance bail money tonight ladies.... My hubby decided it was good idea to order more crap for his guns and not tell me. Usually not a big deal, but I opened the box, saw the receipt and 122.61 for a shotgun stock and grip!!!!! Are you fucking kidding me???!!!!! I'm ready to strangle my husband.
Welp, I just tried on a bathing suit for the first time in 4 years... I'm grossly overweight and my boobs are swallowing my body.
Eta: on the plus side, I got K her first bathing suit and its so freaking cute! Plus we got swim diapers so we'll be signing up for swim class very soon!
@wasnotwas (I feel bad taking over the yogurt thread) I'll let you know what our pedi says. My 9 month apt isn't for another month. I think Canadian docs are a little more lenient about WCM, I guess we will see.
I'm so excited. I just arranged to mentor some high school girls through the youth group I used to participate in. I have wanted to volunteer for them, and yesterday got a random e-mail they were looking for mentors. @tttwalters I'll take a happy hug over here.

We were supposed to get freezing rain. Not snow. You know how that goes.
