  @bsouls‌ We did the disney one too. I was really late at sending those in. I'm glad they are not dated!

  Gist of the judging thread: judgy people judging parenting of other people and being called out for being judgy. Then judgy people start deleting and editing their original judgments and not wanting others to judge them for being judgy. Then judging thread disappears.

  You know for certain that it was deleted by a mod and not by the OP? I have never had the pleasure of being a mod on TB, so I have no idea what you see on your end.

  @addisonsmom22 we've had days like that recently  it'll get better!  

  
  

  Anyone have any good book recommendations?  I miss reading but I've read every one of my books about 5,000 times.  I like fiction, usually something happy.  My favorite author is Sophie Kinsella (don't judge) if that tells you anything.  I just want to pick up a few books that are "light" that I can read before bed.  

  
  

  I LOVE "beach reads" aka fluffy / light / happy books Check out Mary Kay Andrews, Elin Hilderbrand, Jill Kargman (I just read a bunch of these recently, started with Momzilla's which should make you laugh given our current new mom-hood)  

  
  

  Edit to include you can't go wrong with Nancy Thayer (I've read pretty much all of hers), Luanne Rice is also good. 

  
  

  None of these are deep thinking - award winning books...that's just not what I like to read. I've never read your author before...but I just saved a few things to my nook list! Looks fun  

  
  
  I like Elin Hilderbrand.

  Ok so I was at Walmart yesterday and a woman comes up to me and asks if I have a baby in my car seat attached to the stroller!! Ummm nope just tote around this stuff for fun ugh

  When DS1 was a newborn we went shopping one time and he got fussy, so I picked him up to carry. DH and I got about 20 feet apart and a woman saw the carrier in the cart with DH. She went to ogle the baby and realized there was no baby. She was all like: :-t because DH had his back to the cart and she thought the baby had been stollen.
  Lol
  
  So then he noticed her freaking out. And pointed to me.

  I had the cutest little workout buddy this morning at 5:30 because he was over the whole sleeping thing. I was hoping to get time to myself, but it was kinda fun watching his reaction. I must look awfully funny while working out because he just kept smiling and laughing the whole time.

  I know none of you want to hear it, but my perfect little sleeper is having a rough time. He rolls all over his crib now and keeps waking himself up by crashing into the slats. Last night is heard a bang and then he woke up screaming. Poor guy. He also bangs his head when he rolls from his tummy to his back on the floor. I don't know how he does it so violently! He also really hates to sleep on his stomach so he wakes up in hysterics. Needless to say, none of us are getting very good sleep.

  @babylimas‌ that's no fun. I had a terrible sleeper in DS1 and good sleepers in the twins so I've felt both ends of the spectrum. I almost think it's tougher when you get used to the sleep and they start waking up at night. I hope Will is able to sleep well again soon!
  
  Owen has started rolling onto his belly while swaddled and pinned himself by the slats yesterday while napping. He screamed bloody murder. He still has a really strong startle reflex so I'm scared of the transition out of the swaddle but it's just not safe anymore.

  @DisneyAddict1‌ - The past 2 years for DD's 3rd and 4th b-day, she chose the theme (Disney princesses then pink/black zebra stripes).
  
  She won't be 5 until January, but she has already voiced her opinion for her b-day (Frozen). The bad thing is that she recently went to a friends Frozen party and they had hired an Elsa to come and do face pairing, magic, etc. She assumes she's getting Elsa too, but that cost a freakin butt load!

  Those of you with older kids:
  
  At what age did they start picking their birthday party theme (if you go that route)? The past 3 birthdays I have picked for DS1. He didn't really care. But he's going on 4, should I encourage him to choose? Give him a couple options? I'm not sure that he really cares either way as long as its something he likes, meaning a familiar movie or show etc.
  
  I need to start thinking about what we are doing so I can plan for the expense now instead of it bunching in with Christmas.
  

  #1 and #2 I picked based on what he ws into. #3 i steered him toward what he would like and I could manage. This year is #4 and he has asked for planes.

  I guess this is my bitch, rant , complaint for the day. Yesterday I worked almost 10 hours and only saw LO for 30 mins total. Fed her, gave her a bath and put her to bed.

   

  Today looks like its going to be a repeat. One girl called out and another girl just left, leaving me here to do EVERYTHING on my own. I've been here since 7 and got no sleep last night  again due to I guess Harper's sleep regression. I just hate I'm not getting to see her ! 

  ANDPLUSALSO keep in mind if your friends with people you work with on social media, don't post pics Sunday afternoon of you laying in the pool " getting your tan on drinking yo drank " then call out of work for  2 days after. Doesn't look good !

  Thanks I'm just bitchin

  @tsmith312‌ I'm with you. I don't get off of work usually until 5:30 and I normally don't get home until 6 or 6:15. Addie goes to bed around 7:30 or 8. I hardly get to see her at all and it's slowly killing my spirit. I've spent many a lot of nights and morning on the way to work crying my eyes out lately. This schedule is slowly breaking me and no one seems to understand at all.

  WELL I totalky understand !! It sucks so bad, I'm sure my husband is tired of all my tears about it. I just feel like as a mother I'm totally failing !!
