  • IKEA has child care and food? Where have I been???
    Your IKEA doesn't have food?! I refuse to believe this, it's the best part of shopping there!
    $1 ice cream cones FTW!

  • It's hotter than balls where I live and I've been regularly inviting friends over all summer to swim at our apartment's pool.
    I have one of my favorite friends coming over to swim in an hour or so, but this other chick (who I find particularly obnoxious) invited herself along.
    A has been crying since he got up 45 min ago (he's still tired, but refuses to go back to sleep) and I'm not sure I can handle the obnoxious one today. And she's extra annoying to A. She puts her face right in his face, pats him like a dog, and talks in that stupid baby voice. Oh and she is the one who signed up to bring us a meal after A was born and then called an hour before she was supposed to come to tell us she couldn't do it- and wouldn't get off the phone despite A screaming in the background.

    I'd cancel, but I know she would want to reschedule.

    I'm not excited for today.

  • Bubba keeps screaming. He's exhausted, but doesn't want to sleep. Does this ever end?

    I just made quinoa for the first time ever. It's been in my pantry waiting for months. Put it in my salad. It's pretty good. Gotta find more recipes for it since I have a nearly full bag left.

    Prepare it like stuffing and put in an acorn squash. Best ever.

  • I always online shop, in my pjs with wine. I hate stores because they usually suck. Might need to venture out :)
  • This popped up on my FB this morning
    At first I read that and didn't think anything of it. Took me a second to actually realize that meant 20 weeks away...

    That would explain the occurance of Christmas stuff at Carters... I'm going to be such a little kid this year now that we have A!

  • @mamrotu73 I loooove Greek salads, so this quinoa recipe: https://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130305004010/glee/images/1/1c/Aca_excuseme.gif

    Bonus, usually quinoa gets better the longer it sits. I make a big batch to use in jar salads and layer beans, dressing, chopped onion, chopped pepper, cucumber and tomato with quinoa and a little bit of lettuce on top. It's my jam for the work week and SUPER easy and filling.  https://theblondebuckeye.com/2013/08/layered-salad-in-a-jar/

  • I'm impatiently awaiting an email from Chicco. Ugh. I hate waiting! Anyone else have the liteway plus stroller and have issues with the seat back attaching to the frame?
  • I love when I get on RTT and there are 69 new replies ;)

  • I'm watching Property Brothers (obviously) and they have a set of identical twin sisters as the buyers. It's adorable. 

    Also- I just ate an entire tub of roasted garlic hummus and veggies for lunch. I have no regrets. 

    So far, no nap on the horizon. LO is in her crib watching the mobile and she's staying in there until she cries because I need a break from baby barnicle.
  • So my truck broke down. I just walked all the way home dragging both kids.
  • Well, I learned my lesson.  Car washes are too noisy and scare DS.  Poor guy.

    Almost had to slap a biatch at target. DD started fussing and this lady comes up to and asks me why I would bring my newborn to a busy store during back to school season. Then she said DD was ruining the back to school shopping for all the kids there. I just started laughing and told her that of course I brought my 4 month old to target just so she could cry during the sacred back to school shopping trip she was taking. WTF lady? I may have lingered with a now crying DD just to ruin her day more.
    Slow clapping you from over here in Kentucky...
    And from indiana
    From Alaska as well.

  • I turned 25 this past may I had a 7 week old baby,my boobs hurt, my clothes didn't fit, and I was sleep deprived. I got a keurig because I complained so much at how tired I was aaaand I had to go back to work 2 days before my birthday because bed rest took up my fmla. Not the best birthday ever!

    @RedDawnsRevenge‌ so sorry about the walking home I can't imagine your a super mommy!
  • While we're talking cooking, anyone have good ideas/ recipes for rice and veggies that are/can be adapted to be veggie? DS1 loves rice. Little weirdo will eat brown rice cold like it's popcorn - and it's the only way he'll eat veggies that aren't puréed and hidden. I make asparagus risotto (or sometimes spinach or broccoli) with Parmesan, Mexican rice with zucchini and squash, and fried rice with veggies. Oh, and in the fall I'll make a butternut squash/mushroom risotto. I feel like I'm rotating 3 meals constantly and I'm getting bored...

    Maybe a baked fish cooked over rice, broccoli, and some cheese?

    Will someone send me a veggie stuffed peppers recipe?  That sounds great!  The only times I have had stuffed peppers is with meat... and I don't love meat (dont really eat any red meat), and it tasted just like smooshed grossness.  Veggie version is worth a try!

    I just made stuffed peppers last week, but donthave the exact recipe. Basically mix cooked quinoa, black beans, onions and tomatoes together. It was yummy!
