Oh I have one! My mom sent out shower invites like last week and a few people have gotten stuff for us from our registry. For some reason when you go online and select a gift it automatically chooses to send it to our house, but the option to change the address is right underneath it but whatever.
A few gifts have been sent to our house and I'm so excited the site is throwing people off because I get to use our new stuff early!
My living room is baby proofed. DD only has access to the living room and hallway most of the day because we keep the doors closed. DH or I must have left the door to the bathroom open by mistake. I went to change DD's laundry. When I returned, she was sitting on the bathroom floor proudly holding the toilet brush over her head, with a big "look what I got mom" smile on her face. Yet again MOTY. I pray she didn't put it in her mouth.
I hide food from dh. If I buy a box of fruit snacks (I still eat them, another fffc?) he will have them gone in 2 days. So I will buy a box and keep it in my car and it will last 2 weeks.
I also read his texts. But not because I don't trust him. I do it because he will make plans for us to go to a friends house but forget to mention it to me. It keeps me in the loop sort of. I don't think he knows I do this.
Our lawn hasn't been mowed in a month and half at least. It was so dry for a while and then it rained and we are becoming 'that' house. My brother works for a landscaping company and we pay him to do it because H has knee issues and I just don't have the ambition to do it even if it would save $30 each time. I couldn't do nearly as nice of a job.

@kerco51 We keep all the hallway doors shut too and the one time H left it open she beelined for the bathroom and got right into the trash. I caught her, but there were used condoms, snotty tissues and general grossness in there. Thankfully she didn't get in it to far,

I am patiently waiting for DS morning nap. I don't know what happened or if he woke up on the wrong side of the bed but everything has thrown this kid into a crying fest. Hopefully he'll wake up in a better mood and I'll get a hour and half of freedom from him.
I also think my BIL and his wife are idiots. Who tells their 4 year old that your pregnant as soon as the pee stick dries and expects him not to tell people. They are now upset that everyone knows before she has gone to the doctor. I would never expect DD to keep that to herself and therefore would not tell her until the day we decided to tell everyone.
I'm agreeing to go away with the ILs and our family to PA for a weekend in Oct so they won't be hurt when they find out my parents are taking us to Disney World in the spring.
I was out to lunch with mil yesterday and while we were standing in line LO was fussing a lot because she was hungry so I got a purée pouch out of the diaper bag and started to feed her. She was frantic and grabbed it from me and started sucking it down. I let her keep it. Then I caught 2 moms in line behind me whispering and giving me side eyes. I just stared at them and they quickly looked away but wtf?! It's really bugging me. Was it the food pouch? The fussing? What did those bitches find so unsatisfactory about me and why am I so bothered about it?
I guess my "confession" is that I'm letting this affect me way too much.

Skye does this too! I always cringe because I think people are judging!

I would love if DD could do this. She can't feed herself pouches. She just squirts them out everywhere.

Pfft, I wish I could get Willa to feed herself in any way. My child won't have it! You must feed me mahm!
Why do we hate Texas today? FFFC: I have been listening to an audiobook in the car for the last 2 weeks instead of NPR.
Texas A&M beat USC last night. Duh sleepy.
In a "season ending as soon as it starts" kind of way.
Ugh I hate that. That's why we play crap teams for 2 weeks....we need those 2 wins under our belt. And we fund that teams new uniforms for the next eon.
My DH's best friend is flying in for the weekend tonight. I am irrationally annoyed by this because I am super busy at work and my Alma Mater is playing freaking FSU for their season opener tomorrow. DH's BF is a one of those trashy fair weather fans my my states' other school and I do not want to listen to him run his mouth about how shitty my team plays tomorrow. What I want to say if FU dude, I am cheering for my Alma Mater. And also, FU again.
I might also be annoyed with the OSU AD for scheduling FSU. I mean seriously, FSU!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
I also let our season tickets go this year, since DD is small and I am way more upset than I thought I would be.
Another one - I secretly wanted USC to beat Texas A&M. I know they are ex-Big 12 and we need them to do well in the other conference to make us look good, blah, blah, blah. This is the only place I have voiced this secret. :-S
I'm all rabbit with a star on my chest right now because the docs wife (from my drama yesterday) came into my office, and said how much she respected me and that I should never feel like I can't talk to her, and she would never give me the cold shoulder. Cough-cough- bullshit -cough-cough.
She knows, that I know, I'm more valuable then her, and I'm sure the doc gave her an earful last night. ::evil plan laugh::
My mom told me that she is retiring from her job next year. I want her and my dad to sell their house that is 45 min away and move to my town, primarily so we can see them more, but also so they can watch Cam more...

Hey, I just guilted my MIL to come for the weekend...::second evil plan laugh o' the day::

You should convince them to retire on kauai!
Haha, I am sure they can afford a pretty comfortable retirement in Kansas, but Kauai might strain their budget! As much as my mom would love to. She's already talking about when will Cam be old enough to go.
C will only eat purees from pouches now. She is team #letmefeedmyself. I always feel guilty because of those FB posts where people find mold or whatever in them. Sooo I attempted to make my own and the texture was DISGUSTING. To be fair though, I was just winging it with the ingredients. I plan on making just fruit ones, because I'd imagine that would be easier #bananas
I found a date typo on my resume that I submitted. Looks like I'm pulling double duty. Contemplating not fixing it to resubmit to not draw attention to it.
I'm on a roll today.
I fell asleep while Cece was in the Jumparoo.
I ate all of Cece's cheesy poofs.
I bought Cece a fur vest. It's something I think is cute but probably wouldn't wear myself. Therefore, she will be my stylish doll through which I will vicariously live.

Pinterest and wholesome baby food are really helpful for finding good combinations. Some of Kenzie's favs are cauliflower/apple/zucchini and apricot/peach/banana. They are pretty delicious. I usually steam everything.
Those sound good! I steamed kale and put it in the blender with blueberries and a banana. It came out kind of slimy and when we open them, a ton of blueberry juice comes out. Cece actually ate some of it, but it was a mess.
Perhaps I will spend some time at work looking up baby recipes
After reading @KerCo51 kitchen reno stories in Thursday Randoms, I have a FFFC.
I've wanted a purple kitchen (just walls painted purple) for years and DH agreed that when we buy a house, I can have it. Flame away! Lol

Georgia has a fur vest. We were gifted it but it's one of my favorite pieces she has. I would never be caught dead in one. #stylishbabydolls
Im having a very detailed conversation about bacon, meat sweats, and poop through my work email with one of my friends. I feel like a man
Two questions: How does that conversation go? and What is a meat sweat?
Well... I didn't know what to have for lunch so I ordered a steak and cheese and I told her I wanted to add bacon but I didn't because I am fearful of meat sweats. too much meat makes you sweat... and they are doing the ALS challenge at my job today because it's dress down day and they always donate to a cause but this time they decided to sell raffles so they could ice bucket the CEOs lol. So one of our friends got her raffle ticket pulled but they sent through email that "she had stomach distress" so she couldn't do it. So I said now every one knows amy has the runs..
<---enlightened. Halleloo, I never knew about meat sweats. I just googled it and it's on Urban Dictionary so it's legit. I guess I just never ate enough meat at once but I've eaten a lot of meat at once. I do a lot of meat.
eta I just looked at the images and g.d.i. it's a Friends reference... ... ... ...
Yikes I just got a good one. My husband just asked me to guess how much I spent on clothes in the month of August (mainly just for Kenzie) I guessed $200. He said it was over $600. Whoops! She has a crazy cute fall wardrobe now though!
Baby clothes are so kyewt. #addiction #reallivedoll
