A bird did not just poop on my windshield. It took a dump. Bird poop was in 9 different spots and I was out of windshield washer fluid.
And another DC drop off. Another day my kid came crawling after me and crying when I left. When does this phase end?
Not to be a story topper but today my kid wouldn't look at me when I dropped him off. The DC lady was like say bye to mommy. He gave me 0 eye contact. Sassy
AT THE END OF THIS WEEK WE WILL BE DONE WITH IV FLUIDS! DONE DONE DONE DONE DONE!!!!
Of course he has to prove he can handle it, so we're not immediately pulling the line. Full update with 1-yr pics coming soon!

This kid may not have a lot of bowel, but he has plenty of guts! DS born at 34 weeks with (surprise!) gastroschisis turned short bowel syndrome. 131 days in the NICU, 7 trips to the OR, G-button, daily TPN....
We are impatiently awaiting the day we can say goodbye to his girlfriend Ivy for good.
FFTC: Baby Einstein has been on my tv all morning so I could eat breakfast, do my workout and get ready for the day. Both of my kids love it. It's like baby/toddler crack. So weird.
Dude can someone tell me how I can get my kid to watch TV? Anyone? PLEASE????
My kid likes mana mana, let it go, summer (frozen) repeat played on you tube but that's it.
I would kill to be able to put the kid in front of sesame street, little einsteins, jake and the never land pirates, sophia the first, dora, thomas...ANYTHING for 30 mins at a time.
@etoille - Lilly focuses on a show or movie for 10-15 minutes at a time, unless it's the Baby Einstein puppets anthology (YouTube Link) or Daniel Tiger (Netflix has streaming episodes). I haven't tried to see how much longer she would watch beyond 30 minutes, but she LOVES them both. *Heads up: DT's voice is like nails on a chalkboard and they sing some really annoying songs.
I remember spending months wishing L would nap in her crib rather than on me. Now she is sleeping in my arms for the first time in I can't remember how long and I am LOVING the snuggles.

@Meimsx We'll keep the line until he proves he can stay hydrated without it, so I don't know if that will be a week or a month or what. But yeah, after that we're good to go as long as he doesn't sweat so much that it becomes a hydration issue.
I may or may not have just stopped to check out BBB's selection of tiny trunks

I FINALLY joined IG. (not because of the drama, I just wanna see MOAR BABIES). My SN is the same as here. I've sent requests to "follow" several people, but I know I don't have everyone, so anyone who can "add" me, I'd appreciate it!!
Dammit, I'm trying to post an update with pictures but the pictures won't upload! Grrrr.

I am on, but not IG friends with anyone here yet I will add you and hopefully see the other J13 gals screen names to add. Love all the babies!
@lancomechica I've never done any of those either. I didn't even drink until I was in college O:-)
angels!! I'm guessing you were slightly more angelic than I
Hahaha I don't know. I did some non-angelic stuff but it was tame compared to some of my friends. I was always everyone's designated driver and the one who picked up the pieces after they caused trouble.
I had my gangsta period. Not sure what I was thinking.

I almost puked on my baby last night and then again a little while ago. I slept the whole time the nanny was here and it was glorious...glorious.
You'd think a very sick mommy would get some help at night. Nope. Over it.
Hugs to everyone with sick families!
@Meimsx that's pretty cool. Hope he gets the job and likes it
@mimi4347 HOORAY <:-P
I'm so confused over this stupid AE crap.

Sorry it's sideways.
@NKaeding so sorry Ellie is so sick
@mimi4347 sounds like Ivy is on her way out. Nice!
I'm just here to AW my play date this afternoon with @MissConstrued and her LO. They were cracker buddies.
I'm a bigger goody two shoes no weed no shrooms ever. Didn't get it...still don't.
