FFFC

Because it's Friday and we* need to confess.

*I, I need to confess.


I have to go out this afternoon. I'm torn between taking the chance that the baby stays asleep long enough for me to shower and just accepting that I'm going to smell funny all day.

I'm also supposed to be working because I'm way behind but coffee and brownie-filled cookies appeal to me far more at this point in time.

  • @tourqueyes - We've all been there. Or at least been very close to there.


    I've now moved on from coffee to refreshing my emails every minute or so, waiting for a response from someone wanting me to drop a thing off to them instead of working. I heart procrastinating. 
  • I haven't been giving my dogs enough attention since DD was born and I feel really guilty about it :(

  • We have friends coming over in a few hours that we haven't seen since last year, I secretly wish they would bail. I'm too tired to entertain even though they persist they don't mind a screaming baby.
  • I don't have any long sleeved newborn outfits so DD has been living in short sleeved onesies and blankets all week.  I just can't rationalize going out to buy something that she will grow out of in a week or two.  Probably could have planned better...

  • I haven't done a thing all day except bump, have LO sleep on my chest or in my arms, nurse, change diapers, and eat. Also, doctors appointment and errands in the morning so I guess that was my activity for the day. I feel like I should feel guilty but I don't care.

    #2 now that have a LO I will probably be one of those people who flames all kinds of shit on the other boards. Not only do I feel like an asshole I'm pretty much planning to be one... Sorry not sorry. I need something to do til I go back to work.

    I love DD more than anything but I'm glad I'm going back to work on the 9th. No offense to stay at home moms it is just totally not for me. I feel like an asshole though....

    This is how I felt when I had DS 1, but money or should I say the lack of contributed to this feeling also. This time with DS 1 and 2 at home, I'm secretly wishing DH will ask me to quit my banking job and be a stay at home mom!!

    Thanks to the football thread I just spent a bunch of time looking for cute 0-3 month baby girl things for the season. Now I'm annoyed because it's all (in my opinion) too expensive or not cute. I'm going to dig out DS's old MSU stuff instead and call it a job well done. I guess the confession is that I won't pay 30 dollars for baby cheerleading outfits.
    Can I piggy back this and say that I totally judge chicks who wear pink NFL gear and deem them not real fans? If you are a true fan, imo, you wear the team's colors, not some pink shit to make it into something it's not. I HATE pink jerseys.
    I wear pink versions of everything (sports kit, motorcycle gear, coveralls etc). It started out as a joke between me and my BFF because I'm tiny, have perfect nails and wear pink stuff but then break out a toolbox to build chicken coops, restore wheelbarrows and fix engines like it's NBD.

    I'm done with the newborn phase. I'm ready for LO to get a bit older and develop some sort of set routine and to be able to start sleep training him as well. I do love the cuddles at this age though!

    Me too! Especially, the constant attached to the boob stage. Life is so much easier when they cry in the car because they are hungry to hand them food, instead of having to pull over to nurse.

    I think I'm the opposite. Maybe this is FTM delusions, but I want to stay in this erratic, tiny person stage forever. I think it's because having a baby who can't communicate and just had basic needs is kind of like having a new puppy. And I'm used to dogs. Is that a terrible comparison? Maybe. But I think once I realize this tiny, cuddly baby is a real person my brain is going to explode.

    Eta - opps - looks like it's officially Saturday. My b.
