Well, it's 3am and I can't even get my H on the phone. He went and worked out after a 12 hour shift and then went out to supper with coworkers. At 11, he did a FaceTime with me and he was at a bar. I just woke up with Lily and no H. He won't respond to texts or phone calls. I hope he's okay so I can kick his ass.
Good morning!!! Waking up to 91 new posts at least makes blow drying my hair more interesting! @nikel13 - my H has done that- and paid dearly- hope everything is ok.
And B is rocking two piece PJs- but they make him look like such a little boy and not a baby- I want him to go back!
And it is B's birthday today! We are officially parents of a one-year-old!!!
He finally showed up after 5am. He crawled into bed and I told him that it was not okay to not answer his phone or anything. He'll get more once he is awake.
Is it just me or are there a bunch of new random people posting in threads? Several names that don't seem familiar.
I've noticed this too.
Am I one of the randoms? I didn't know if I should reintro or not.... I used to be super active here before Will was born but then fell to lurking the boards. Lmk, ok?

Alex also screams when he hits the mattress. He's waking up slightly less often, but trying to get him back in his crib takes at least 3 tries with cuddles and rocking in between. Last night it took more than an hour.

I finally have some good news! I spoke to my grandmother for the first time since the accident yesterday. Just thinking about it makes me tear up. She is doing better. Her seizures are being controlled by medication and she should be able to leave the hospital by the end of the week. She has a broken toe (from when she fell during her first seizure) so she cannot walk on her left foot so her doctor told her she needs to check into a nursing home so she can have 24/7 care. Unfortunately I don't know all the details about her condition so I am sure there is more to it. I am just glad I was able to talk to her and that she is in good spirits. Thanks again for all your support, thoughts and prayers!
So this morning I played Bohemian Rhapsody for G during breakfast and totally lip synced and did the Wayne's world thing (because I'm cool). He was silent and looked very intense during the duration of the song. At the end he said. "Some things matter to me mom." And then a few minutes later, "he sounded sad, he said he wanted to die." I forgot how heavy Queen's lyrics were! So I texted DH the convo like it was cute and funny and he responded with "I hope you took the time to discuss the lyrics with him." Geez Louise, I wonder where G gets his intensity from! Lighten up boys, my head banging was the real highlight!
@ lioness13 - so glad to hear you got some good news. Hopefully, things keep looking up for your Grandmother!
@majwv8 - we did take a few pictures on his actual birthday with a candle- he was mesmerized so they were kinda cute - but I am hovering over his shoulder and had to blow it out really fast when he tried to eat it. So... at your own risk...
@connierob I remember you too. Didn't your siggy used to have a picture with a blue dress and red shoes? I always used to think how cute and sassy that was.
Neither of my girls got any teeth until almost 14 months. DS has the 4 on top poked through, one on the bottom (go figure) and now he's getting more. I don't know how to do a miserable teething baby. And he has a cold on top of it. Kill.Ing. Me.
My DD is so clingy this morning. All she wants is to sit on my lap or she just cries. But when she's on my lap she just blows raspberries onto my chest. Over and over... And over. The spit just runs down my cleavage. Anyone else? I think I'm regretting blowing raspberries onto her stomach lol
@subminalrabbit Stupid weaning hormones - I totally just teared up thinking about how grateful those new parents must have been for all of your advice, and how much I love being able to come to you ladies for support. Sheesh!
I did the same thing. But I haven't pumped or nursed in 3 weeks LAME!
Thanks @kames12 we have tried similar, but when I have some greek yogurt she likes to share and she takes a bite and then rubs her face off on me. It's only during snack time that I don't make her sit in the high chair, and I never think she will have that much, but she eats more than I do and I end up smelling like yogurt.
Today is National Running Day and it's supposed to rain all stinking day. Normally I would say, who cares, but I'm already sick. So, I don't think that would end well for me
I'm feeling like a bad mom today... M has been EBF since she was born and has always refused a bottle. No big deal, I'm usually around. However, as a result, I always do her bedtime routine. Fast forward to last night. I'm going away this weekend so H is going to be by himself with her for 2 nights. He was supposed to start putting her to bed weeks ago so she got used to it but work (and a few Slo-Pitch games) has got in the way. Last night was the first attempt and it was awful!! I went outside right after supper to do yard work, hoping that she would think I was gone and it would make it easier. He did so well going through all the steps of her bedtime routine, but by the time it was crib time she fought him tooth and nail. She cried and cried. He eventually had to spend 25 min leaning over the crib rubbing her back until she was sound asleep. And then had to do it again when she decided to wake up an hour later. Poor girl and poor DH. I should have forced this so long ago... Lots of guilt over here today. Sorry for the long vent.

It's rainy and COLD here. Like low 60's. I was freezing running to the grocery store this morning.
Ugh same here. That's why I won't bother if it keeps raining. It was say, 80 and rainy, I'd probably suck it up. But, I'm already a snotty a mess. This just won't do.
We just got an invitation for a baby shower next weekend. It's their second kid, they are throwing it themselves and they've already been given a TON of new girl stuff with tags still, from her sister in law. (I'm closer to the sister in law but are friends with both) it just seems greedy to me since they registered for stuff they should already have. Their ds just turned one last month, how do you not have a baby bathtub?? Sorry so long
Thank you everyone for all of the birthday wishes for B! I am trapped at work today, but the sitter said he is having a fun day and she made him cupcakes. I love her.
@nikel13 that just sucks! I hope your H isn't still sleeping!! How rude of him. I hope you can get some much deserved pampering time very soon!
@Mommycoffee He isn't still sleeping because I had to go to work and he stays home with Lily. So, he was up by 8 so that I could finish getting ready and go to work. He said that he was dizzy. I told him I had no sympathy and bye.
@Baby Gs mommy - I don't think it is tacky at all. I would say ignore the registry and the baby shower invite all together and just do whatever it is you normally do when a new baby is born.
@connierob I remember you too. Didn't your siggy used to have a picture with a blue dress and red shoes? I always used to think how cute and sassy that was.
Blue dress- yes, red shoes- no. I think that was meg something or other. That was very sassy though! I moved in to red wine and cheese balls for my profile pic. That's just how fancy I am

So I was all excited to register LO for storytime at the local library. Nope, I had our library confused with another one with the same name in a different state. No summer storytime here.
I felt so damn stupid.
That sucks! I'm shocked that there isn't a summer reading program. I signed the boys up last week. I was surprised that they are letting Will do it too but hey, the more the merrier

@majwv8 - no candle needed. My baby would probably be more interested in the candle...
Glad he's ok, but I would be beyond pissed if DH did that to me.

Just wanted to say that every time I give LO yogurt it somehow ends up more on me than her.
Oh and Happy Birthday @megaroo64's LO!
