Success! I had some of DH's fave bands' album covers printed and custom frames made for them. I bought him a new desk, accessories and one salvaged ladder from a garbage pile to make him his own office space in the basement! (It was this awkward bare 8 foot wall at the bottom of the stairs, next to the TV and sitting area.) He knew about the desk but I'm surprising him with the rest when he gets home. I hope he loves it!
Love this idea! Where did you get the album covers printed?
So who posted about the Walking Egyptian/All the Single Ladies/Running Man baby on the monitor?
Mamrotu? Him(numbers)?
LO is recreating said monitor picture. HF&M has overtaken us (LO and DH, who is only suffering the chills/fever), but at least LO's sleeping long enough for me to veg a bit after a LONG day in the car... Wine and Love Actually. Nothing better. Except for the addition of a roaring fire.
UO: I feel so weird about adding stuff to my wish list on elfster. It just makes me feel gift grabby and I feel like I'm taking away from my buddy's thoughtfulness by saying "this is what I want you to buy me for a gift exchange"
I love you girl! You know, when I was originally posting that comment I was like "maybe I should specify that I'm bitching about a tv character so these women know I'm not coming for anyone here". But then I was like "a good amount of rtt girls watch 'Parenthood' so they'll know what I'm talking about". Well that backfired didn't it?

Bahah, no you're good. I think that's a super popular show. It's just ironic that I caught that.
On the way to a state park today, there was a young mom with her (I'm assuming) daughter in the back seat STANDING UP! She looked to be about 3 years old, and we were on a road that was 60MPH, and then I lost her when she GOT ONTO THE FREEWAY. I reported her, and I really hope they found her and arrested her. X(

@edoliesmom I can't imagine. That must have been so hard.
So about the gift exchange...we're really only required to buy an ornament or a onesie right? If I want to put more stuff in, is that a bad thing? I don't want anyone to feel bad that they only gave a onesie, but I love to shop for other people! I'm willing to stick to the rules if there are any.

There's not a dollar amount limit, so I would think you could give as much as you'd like!
Thanks @emilyann64! I'm sure my younger self would've appreciated it.

I definitely did! Whoops! But I sincerely thought she asked the exchange question and that you said the thing about Up. It's been a long day. 8-} So, thank you @celticlullaby. ">

I spent 2 hrs at Urgent Care with dd, who had pink eye. Of course our pedi isn't open on weekends and she needs to see a doc to get medicine for it. And of course, by the time we left all the pharmacies are closed. Oh well. I guess we start treatment tomorrow!

Awesome prophetic fortune cookie: Love is a present that can be given every single day you live
I posted a couple weeks ago about my hair stylists husband cheating on her. Well she went back through phone records and found out he had been talking to the other woman for a year...including the day their baby was born. He called his girlfriend while his wife was in labor. What a dick. He doesn't want to be a dad after spending years trying. So sad for her.
Oh my fucking God!!! People can be such selfish assholes! I almost said men but that's not fair because there are lots of men who don't cheat and lots of women who do cheat. I feel so bad for this woman. I hope whatever decision she makes, she eventually finds happiness and is able to move forward and forgive him. Not for him but for her. This is all so sad

I feel so bad for her. That guy is a complete dick.
My fil is a cop, he called us last night totally freaking out if we were okay. There was a shooting in his beat last night. Murder/suicide, a father killed his two children. I don't have the details yet, but it was bad enough that my father in law was crying, and said that it is the hardest case of his career (20 years). I slept all night with DS pasted to my side. My heart just feels heavy today.
@Shelbysteffens where does your fil live? There was a shooting here yesterday on the street my aunt and uncle live on. 3 dead including 2 children. Such a sad world
My fil called DH and told him what happened, it's awful. I feel so sick, my heart is so broken for those kids and their mom. There are some sick people in the world and its times like this where I question my faith in humanity.
I'm septic from this stupid abscess in my mouth. I have to have antibiotic shots every day until my surgery on Wednesday. My butt hurts from them. I'm literally and figuratively butt-hurt. I do have some awesome pain killers though!
I was just about to ask you how things were going with that! That sucks and must be really painful. My left side of my face hurts from mine I honestly can't wait to see the dentist on Tuesday. I'm actually looking forward to my root canal lol! Hope they can get you fixed up soon.
I miss being pregnant over the holidays. Both times I was like hungry pregnant, not easily full pregnant.
I don't, now I can have all the delicious cocktails! Bailey's and boozy cider and drunken cocoa...aw yissss
Yeah...I'm excited to be able to partake in some alcohol this holidays. Sparkling cider definitely didn't cut it last year, though I tried. During one particularly tense evening at my in laws, I remember throwing back 4 glasses of cider in quick succession, pretending it was the real stuff.
A little wine makes family gatherings so much better!

I'm so excited about the exchange too! I hope my buddy likes my ideas.

Well ok, my DH and I give no fucks about sports. So no sporto stuff. But literally everything else is in.

Been a rough week.
DH's dad is in the hospital for kidney failure
My best friend mother-in-law passed away Thursday morning from liver failure
A good friend from back home shot himself (committed suicide) last night
Just going to hide in bed with all the baby snuggles today.
@MrsStanton87 I cried too! Parenthood the final season is all emotions all the time, but I'm loving it!
Thanks everyone

We're going to see the Dirty Dancing production at the theater downtown with another couple tonight. I'm so excited!!
