Thursday randoms & all that jazz

Random- got our carpets cleaned this am! I Keep singing So Fresh, So Clean by Outkast!

Vent- planning Z's birthday party is getting crazy. I don't know if I want a theme or a free for all. I'm not the best at matchy matchy things. Should we do Yo Gabba Gabba or Frozen? What food do we serve? I'm wayyyyy overthinking this. I need to calm down. 

AW- DH applied to chopped! He got a call about a possible spot on the show!! I can't wait!! I hope he gets it!! 

PIP- I took Z's car seat out of the car to vacuum it & set it inside. She sat in it & watched tv this am 


Re: Thursday randoms & all that jazz

  • You have to tell us if he gets it!!

    AW: We took DD to see the Easter bunny yesterday. She was scared so DH sat with her. I think the picture of them is really cute but I don't think he would like me posting it on a public board. :/

    Random: Some lady trying to buy pictures yesterday actually showed the workers her bank account on her phone to prove she had money in it. Lady, if your card isn't working, it doesn't matter what your phone says.

    Another AW: I'm almost done with DD's felt magnet board. I'm excited it is going to be really cute!

  • Random: DH and I had sex on the couch last night. Our couch is apparently not good for sex. Too squishy.

    Vent: Scarlett is being a total turd today. She won't leave the animals alone and she's been up my butt all morning.

    AW: I got nothing.
  • AW - DS is finally saying 'mommy' but he sounds like he has a cold when he says it - 'bomby' lol.  But I've waited long enough dammit; I'll take it!  Also, yesterday DH was counting with DS and H said 1, 2, then DS interrupted with 3, H said 4, DS 5!!  WHAAAA???  I'm sure it's just repetition because we count things whenever they're countable, but still.  I was proud :P

    Vent - DH is going to be OOT pretty much until May 9th.  UUUGGGHHH!!!  He's leaving tomorrow for a fishing trip until the 27th (but DS and I will be down there this Monday and Tuesday), then he'll be working at the beach the following week (BUT I think we may visit him there too...) THEN, he's going to be in Detroit for work the week after that!!!  He'll be home a few days in between and we're going to go to him for a few days, but STILL!!!!  I like having him here, at hoooome!
  • I declined a cervical check and sweep yesterday but now I kind of regret it.
    like stripping membranes? how are you feeling?
  • You have to tell us if he gets it!!

    Absolutely will! I'm so excited!
  • @hls19: That is awesome!! You MUST tell us if he gets it and when the show will be on :)

    Not much over here....let's see if I can talk about anything at all....

    Vent: The weather's teasing me....it's sunny and beautiful but only about 45 degrees. :(

    AW: DH just sent me a sweet middle-of-the-day text.....love those:)

    She's so cute! Vent. DS woke up at SEVEN AM! Jeez kid...930 is usually his norm. 7 is too farking early for me. Aw. DS did his first week in daycare this week. He did so well!!
    Thank you! :)
    Z wakes up between 7:30 and 8. ugh
  • Gastro said:
    @hls19‌ so cool! I hope he gets it. Does he work in Santa Cruz or am I getting you confused with someone else?
    Thank you!- he works in Clearwater area. We filled out  the application a while back. I am shocked he got the call.
  • Vent: Eff you teething. DS follows me around crying ALL DAMN DAY. Poor guy is only happy if I hold him.

    Random: I'm thinking of joining Costco, but I'm not sure if it is worth it. I just don't have the time to commit to couponing, plus we are trying to cut back junk and some processed foods.

    AW: DH has tomorrow off and I can do whatever I want. All day.

  • All I have is vent. I lost my wallet and I have turned the house upside down looking for it. It's no where to be found. I have a sinking feeling I left it in the grocery cart yesterday, and the store said no one turned in a wallet. Oooh, it's like I would know someone on Chopped!! Congrats and fingers crossed.

    oh no! I'm so sorry! I thought I did that the other day and ended up finding it in one of my bags. Not in the car? Diaper bag?

  • I have more! My day got more interesting after the boys woke up from their super long nap....

    We were stuck in the house today b/c it was too chilly to go out and the back of my van is full of these large chairs from DH's old office (he's moving to a new office....and despite my nagging him, the chairs have been back there for a couple days now) so I can't put my stroller back there. So I got the brilliant idea to make edible fingerpaint for the boys. It was just flour, water, and food coloring, pretty easy....and thankfully very forgiving b/c it got EVERYWHERE. I think I had a mini heart-attack when N decided to fling his "artwork" into the wall.....but, like I said, it cleaned up no problem (*whew*). At the end of the day it was a great activity....painting itself kept the boys engaged for about 5 minutes, but by the time I was done bathing them, rewashing the floor and everything else that had yellow and blue spattered onto it, we had killed an hour. And hey, bathtime is done early tonight. :-P If I could figure out how to attach a file from my phone I'd PIP the masterpieces....

    And diapers, apple sauce pouches, coffee, peanut butter, so worth it! Plus, does your costco have a gas station? Because saving .20 a gallon adds up quickly with my 20 gallon tank.

  • Aw. I went hiking today because my mom is watching DS for a blissful 6 hours. Also, DS and I have been talking about the fun things we will do when the baby comes. Today he said "Elk no let hens peck sister. " so apparently he thinks he's getting a little sister. And he's going to protect her from the chickens.

    Vent: DH broke the toilet seat last night by standing on it to put something on the high shelf. Now it slides around every time I sit on it. Thanks, DH. Guess what you're doing Saturday?

    Random. I really want some junk food. Hiking makes me hungry for bad things.

  • DD1 just carried a dead rabbit into my house. Cue me screaming bloody murder and DD crying, "it's not real, Mommy". After thoroughly decontaminating her, I had to explain that the bunny was indeed real and dead, most likely by our yorkie, who in the past year had decided to hunt anything that moves. No more going outside without supervision (for the dog or DD) Happy Easter!
    OMG! My jaw just hit the floor...

    Oh, here's another Random:  Apparently my cousin was on Million Dollar Listing last night. I have no idea why.  He is not a millionaire. I don't get cable so I didn't see it. But I'm intrigued.

    Om gosh. I love MDL! I haven't watched last nights episode yet, it's still on my DVR.
  • Vent: DS didn't nap today.

    Vent: I took a Zantac before bed like usual. I woke up with heartburn at 3 am. I then took some tums. Nothing except sleeping upright helped. Now I'm stiff from propping myself up in bed. I'm tired too. Good news that I found out from BIL that is a pharmacist that I could have taken more Zantac per how much dosage you can have in a day while pregnant. It is rather handy having him in the family. :)

    AW: DS is in a good mood despite being sans nap. He is sitting on my lap playing nicely on the Kindle.

  • @caybeh‌ my tired brain thought you said you took a Xanax. Wondered why you were awake for the heartburn. Duh.

    Yeah? Maybe that's what I'll do tomorrow when I have 2 hours to myself. Those are the things I need better prices on, milk, fruit, meat, cheese, etc.

  • Oh my goodness.  I have another vent.  We were at this viewing tonight, right?  And I swear, we were asked no less than 15 times when we were going to have a second kid.  Seriously?  Why is that all everyone thinks about?
