Speaking of water wasting, my home is green and we have low flow toilets. A lot of the time you have to flush 2xs, so it cancels out the whole water conserving point.
I seriously hate low flow toilets for this reason. I hate having to stand around in the bathroom for the tank to fill up for the second flush.

We don't have to wait for a second flush, but I found if you release too quickly you get an even more half assed flush (if that's even possible.) I clogged the toilet a few times which was humiliating because I can't work a plunger and DH had to deal with it. There are some things I believe in keeping private in a marriage, bowel movements being one of them. Now I've learned a protocol to prevent such scenarios.

Soooo.... I shouldn't brag show DH my huge poops? Whoops!

I'm guessing bowls get scarred a lot. I would be switching that out for a standard toilet ASAP. I would die if my h had to unclog my shit.
I did die. DH and I have been together 12 years and he's never even let a fart slip in front of me. Sadly the pregnancy killed a bit of the mystery on my end.
How inappropriate would a bib that had a turkey on it that said "gobble gobble mother clucker" be? Does that even make sense? Maybe a chicken instead over a turkey dinner?
Only makes sense if the turkey is holding an tommy gun
My bf and I had yet another stupid fight today and he managed to spill an entire bag of my breastmilk during it. I don't know if I'm more upset about the things that were said or the spilled milk
Ugh sorry @deidremaria We tried to give DS a bottle tonight and it wasn't happening. We thawed 3 oz like idiots. It hurt so bad pouring it down the drain!

Also I've stopped taking his pants off for diaper changes-I just work the diaper through his legs with the pants pulled down a little. Ah laziness. The mother of creativity.
I'm having a hard time picturing this. /:)
@PoppySeedWindsor I've never heard it referred to as a nail "studio" before, just nail salon.
That's because my brain wasn't working right. I also didn't finish the post, had an error and sent it anyway.
I'm incredibly ragey tonight that DH is off states away sleeping all night in a hotel room for months while I am here with a baby that won't sleep and 2 noisy dogs. It also doesn't help that we try to always talk before going to bed. Tonight he text saying that his phone was dying, but he'd call me after it charged. I finally give up and go to sleep. After 11 he texts me and says sorry just got back. As I'm freaking trying to stay awake so we can have our nightly convo, he's off enjoying the hotel pool. This is so unfair right now. And I can hear both boys coughing right now which means DS1 will be fun tomorrow.
So I turned on the tv tonight as G is boycotting sleep and 19 kids and counting was on. How sleep deprived are the duggars? I can't imagine doing this stage that many times. No thank you!
I hate these onesies that are double layered and are supposed to look like a t-shirt when you put them with pants. Because then I feel obligated to find a pair of pants. Ain't no one got time for pants when the high is 101.

ETA: How many times can I say "pants?"
(PANTS)
I had no idea that was why they were like that! I have one from a gift and was like... "Hmm, it's a shirtsie." He's worn it once.

I had the wierdest dream last night, and it involved the eels from Little Mermaid, a sunken sailboat, and the homeless young man that accepted Miley's VMA award.
WTH brain?! I didn't even watch the VMA's, and I barely caught two minutes of The Little Mermaid when it was on Disney last week... I didn't even have dreams this vivid when I was pregnant!
I need all the coffee today. LO got up at 530am after waking every 2/3hrs starting around 7pm. I ended up putting him in the stroller around 730am and walking to the gas station to get coffee creamer. ahh!!

Oh boy, vacation is doing me wonders.
Sorry, I wasn't trying to be like "YOU SAID THE WRONG THING, POPPY. GOSH." It was more like I thought it was because we're from opposite sides of the US so we use different words for the same thing. ">

DD fell asleep in the car, 5 min from our destination. So I drove past it, through the McDonalds drive-thru, and am now sitting in the parking lot, car runnng, eating second breakfast and bumping

My friend and her husband called us last night to tell us they're having a baby in February!!! That's the second set of friends having babies - DH and I started a trend ;-)
I'm excited for MORE BABIES!!! :-D DH is just happy there will be more people joining us in the Go Out Before 8pm Club :-p

I feel like I should do something about this but I'm not sure what. A sippy cup?
