You show pictures and don't share, not cool Liz, not cool. My blood sugar just rose 100 points. Cal, we are going to the bakery

If I am ever going to lose weight, I am going to need a bump break or a "don't open this thread, yumminess inside warning. A few minutes on here always leaves me wanting all the food.

I'm disappointed by Scotland's "no" vote.

My new favorite song might be this one. Eliza loves this song and I find it hilarious when I see her bobbing her

head and trying to sing along. This is the first pop song she's truly gotten into.

I used to worry about everything growing up. Let me tell you it sucks. I still word but not to the extent as before.

We have a dance party to this song almost daily ^ Edit to fix crazy quoteness

I only find true enjoyment because of Eliza. She is just so funny when it comes on. Last night DH and I went to the baseball game and since we took transit we didn't get back to pick up the kids until 11:30. Eliza was exhausted when we were on our way home but that song came on and she lit up and said, "Oh, I LOVE this song!!" Then you could see her dancing in the carseat. This morning it was on when we got in the car and she just said, "MOM! It's my song!"

Three is an incredible age. Hard and wonderful at the same time. Threenager is real but then they do these types of things and all the hard stuff just melts away and you only remember the awesome for the day.

Most of the time.

My kid says a lot of words and I feel like I can't say anything about it because of potential hurt feelings of other moms on TB and IRL since it seems to be a very sensitive subject.
Talk about it. Truthfully having children shouldn't be a competition as they all develop differently. Cal won't walk 90% of the time but he says a lot. Be proud! I don't think anyone on here would be hurt by v's vocabulary. It's part of life and some babies excel in certain areas!
I agree...but at our gym class a slightly snide comment was made and then all the talk on here. I feel like to some if I say the amount of words he has it comes off braggy when it's just fact. My kid doesn't walk...not worried about it but all the kids at gym walk and most of his school mates walk. I guess I'm proud of where he excels and I think someone took it as braggy and it makes me cautious of sharing.

Talk about it.

Parker, says mama, dada, and this... oh and utoh too. That's it. Josephine said TONS of words by now, Parker, nope. I won't get my feelers hurt

brag away mama!!!

I love "All About the Bass" for it's catchy-ness. (This is not directed at anyone who likes this song. I'm just reminded of conversations I've had with other women). But the message isn't quite right - and I've been kind of annoyed by women who are like "finally! a song about curvy ladies"... (um, have you ever heard a song by J.Lo or Nicki Minaj or Beyonce?). But that's not my beef. It's like, it's great that you don't need to meet the standards of the fashion/beauty industry, but OH WAIT you are saying you meet the standards of beauty men want (having that "boom boom that all the boys chase", or "boys like a little more booty to hold at night").

And then "I'm bringing booty back, go ahead and tell those skinny bitches that. No I'm just playing I know you think you're fat". OH GOOD. Skinny women are bitches AND have mental issues. Sweet.

Maybe I'm crazy. It IS catchy and fun to dance to, though.

She tried to explain that she meant it as a joke, but I agree with this line "Basically, it seems to be really hard to write a song about body acceptance that’s actually about accepting all bodies." -

Someone needs to write "All of our Bodies are Wonderful and Let's Celebrate them Regardless of What Men or Cosmo or Chanel think"

FFFC: Ages and ages ago I saw a video of sweet Vinny doing a wide variety of animal sounds and it knocked my socks off. I was so impressed that I did spend a bit of time trying desperately to get Tess to make her second animal noise. But no, every single animal still says woof/arf to this day.

Rock on @lancomechica

sparkymcgeee · September 2014

I got home so late last night and we get up so early in the morning on Fridays. So today during my half hour lunch break, instead of eating, I took a nap in my car. I set my timer on my phone and was asleep immediately. I was not ready to wake up and come back in. I've been falling asleep at my desk all day. So tired. I-)

We have a smaller dog. All the dogs in Ben's life are smaller dogs. He doesn't arf for a dog sound. He yelps. Took me forever to figure out what he was doing, but it cracks me up.

EagleWife · September 2014

I feel the same as @lancomechica in regards to my chatty baby. Yesterday was the first time I mentioned that she has so many words and seems to understand what they mean (using them in context, etc.)

I am SO SO proud of her, (amazed and in awe, really) but I think of other moms that have posted about their stresses regarding delayed speech and don't want to make anyone feel bad.

Clyde013 · September 2014

I'm getting my nails done. This place is usually so low key. Well today the owner isn't here and the employees are playing the old dmx CD. And I'm just so proud of myself for remembering 90% of the lyrics.

[Deleted User] · September 2014

I have a huge confession. I am not in love with DD's new carseat. I really thought I would be but I think I am doing it wrong.

TheLittleRedM · September 2014

On the topic of talking babies, mine only sort of has his words. He knows a couple like "Ok", "yeah", and "bye" and of course "dada" and "mama" and he talks a lot (he's a Chatty Cathy) and he makes 'words' that sound an awful lot like real words and he even makes them at the appropriate time but I find that I can't decide if I should consider them words or not. He even talks like he's saying full sentences to us but half the time I have no idea what he's saying but he clearly knows because he cracks himself up.

So I feel weird telling people my baby has a bunch of words and if they ask me, I have no clue that he actually means them even though it appears he does. Plus, he doesn't say them completely correctly so there's that.

I used to get worried that he was behind in that area because it took so long before he even decided talking was worth his time. And you still can't get him to repeat things you say or things he's said once he's said it. He also doesn't mimic as much as I assumed he would.

My fffc: we still bathe Maggie in a baby tub at the kitchen sink.

That being said, I have been feeling dumb about it, so tonight we decided to do a big girl bath. She effing pooped. She's never pooped during her bath before. She had soap in her hair when she pooped. Some turds got lost in the soap bubbles. It was total chaos. Then I threw my back out. Dude. I will not be doing that again for a very long time. I am now in bed with a heating pad on my back while H puts Mags to bed. Baby tub for lyfe!

:ar!

Haddocky wanted a cookie and mrsgiantpenis was mysterious. Lancomechica carries tampons, econmama likes the constitution, KikiCohen still likes Triscuits. Valstulas and boys did a really cute tie dye project. Lots of people like Costco. Audrey1787 has a mouse. A lot of us abuse Amazon Prime.

Stina2012 · September 2014

We are going to a friends baby shower tomorrow and I'm excited! Babies! I also did lunch with my college BFF and her baby today. Made me think about #2!

KateJuly2013 · September 2014

She was standing and plop, plop, plop. Lost beneath the bubbles. I am totally traumatized.
@missymr‌ if it wasn't me, I would have laughed my ass off. It was hilarious, really.
@econmama‌ how do you handle the poop in the tub? I think I need some pointers.

[Deleted User] · September 2014

@KateJuly2013‌ needs a bathtub strainer!

blairwitch · September 2014

Jadzia still takes her baths in the baby tub. In the big tub. Just easier.

@ redhead610 That made me literally laugh out loud!

coco2787 · September 2014

I'm sorry but I laughed too @KateJuly2013‌. We've had many poops in the tub so I feel like I've earned the right to laugh. Sorry about your back though.

I gave Silas some of my hashbrowns that had hollandaise on them at lunch today, and after I ran out of potatoes he didn't want to eat anything else in front of him so I just dumped hollandaise on the remainder of the food on his tray (tomatoes and sausage). He ate that shit up, sucking his fingers at the end and everything. Afterward he just smelled like pure butter.

KateJuly2013 · September 2014

Goal for the weekend: learn how to make Hollandaise...
