    My baby cousin is home with his dad! My cousin's dad and step mom are helping him out but I think the mom's family is worried about being shut out so my family is working over time for them to know that we are all ONE family who want to raise this baby with love. I'm gonna go see them this weekend. This whole ordeal makes me think that when our lease is up we should move closer to all our relatives. 

    ETA: it also makes me want to write a will.
    You really should have a will!
    I know... but I'm poor and can't afford a lawyer.... I'm going to start doing research on how to go about it because I don't want to have to haunt my family if they try and over step in the event of my death

    If something happens to you, your SO has absolute rights as the father. What you really want a will for is if something happens to both of you together.
    I know. I should have been more specific. My mother would automatically assume that if my bf and I were gone that she'd assume responsibility and the sad truth is that she's the last person I'd want to raise my son. I'd want my twin to take over.

    I was leaving babygarten and in the vehicle next to me was a four year old strapping her one and a half/two year old brother in his car seat, while wearing a puffy winter coat. Mom was fiddling with the radio. I was going to say something, at least about the coat, after I got DS situated but they drove off. Why would anyone think that it's okay for there preschooler to secure their toddler in the car seat?

    Haha my preschooler loves to strap his little sister in, I do an inspection however.

    After missing for over 72 hours my nephew has been found! He is okay but now he is going to be going to real juvie. If he hadn't have pulled this crap he would have been released from the youth shelter yesterday.

    So glad he was found and safe! But that's so disappointing that he could've been done with all of that yesterday and now has to deal with something bigger. Ugh. :(

    How does everyone vacuum with their LO's close by?  We have a dyson and it's so friggin' loud I wear ear phones to cancel the noise. I can't imagine LO being in the same room when I do it. Even our dog's ears go down when she's close by. 
    I hold DS when I vacuum. Otherwise vacuuming would never get done.
    Vacuuming is DH's job, but that doesn't mean it gets done...

    I have to wear DS, otherwise he tries to chase the vacuum and then gets scared of it and then chases it again and... yeah.

    Mine's not that loud.  If you're worried, baby banz noise cancelling headphones are on amazon.

    Unfortunately my FB feed is filled with crap like this daily. I would get rid of FB altogether but I'm pretty sure I'd never hear of lots of important life events from my long distance friends because phone calls apparently take too much effort and FB is a means of easy mass communication. I guess I'm guilty of it too.

    I think I need to delete my FB app for a while. I'm so tired of seeing all my childless friends having the time of their lives while I miss every. single. event. because Mike is working or because we can't find a sitter orrrrr just because I have a baby and they don't. It's seriously depressing.

    I have no life. I miss my friends. I hate Mike's schedule. I'm always alone! I don't need to be reminded daily of the life I used to have. BOOOOOO

    I need to ask for T&P's again. My sitter keeps one other baby and she is about 2 months younger than Ethan. She spiked a very high fever last night and today the doctor told her parents that her red blood cell count was extremely high. I don't really know what that means for her but she had to have a bunch of tests ran and they are waiting for results.

    T&P for the LO!

    So glad he was found @3crazykitties‌

    The razor AWing is hilarious!

    @dani+california‌ I know exactly what you mean. I have a friend who is constantly asking me if I want to go to a certain concert or a new bar opening and I hate that I can't go and have to say no every time! I can't wait til caroline is old enough/weaned so we can go party while she's at grandma's!
    Our lives will get more normal someday. Or so they say... ;)

    You're not a bad parent @macgrs‌! My LO fell off the bed in Canada and I was so scared. Not only did I feel horrible but I was in a different country so idk how healthcare would've worked if it were more serious. It happens.

    It feels so much more overwhelming to me! I'm also admittedly not good with change :(

    @MrsStanton87 - maybe try rubbing his gums with a frozen washcloth? We got a teething oil called "Punkin Butt" that seems to help some. A local store sells it, but you can also get it on amazon.

    S keeps waking up every hour clearly in pain from his teeth. He's only soothed by nursing. Any ideas? I've given him motrin, tried rocking and bouncing, patting, everything that normally soothes him. I just want him to feel better :(
    We did this for about two weeks :(  Lots of side nursing and good humor.

    I think the people who were like "well I'm GLAD the Cocos are gone!" kind of gave off a general sense of dislike, but that's not what I meant at all. I basically said I wish they were still around, or that I was in more active communication with them elsewhere, and that the ones who made non-GC friends made more of an effort to maintain friendships with them like they do with each other.

    But anyway, hi, Jelly! :smiley: Glad to know you'll be coming around a little more.

    Dani, she still comes around fairly regularly, and anytime I see that she's posted on something, I'm like, "No one cares what you have to say because you're a jerk who doesn't like Dani. :-@"

    LOL she's allowed to not like me, whatever. I just thought it was hilarious that of aaaaall the stupid and potentially offensive things I've said on the board, glasses is what got me the most heat. So awesome
    I thought that when that whole thing was going down. I remember saying to myself "so no one remembers this woman saying that Americans need mother fucking Jesus but they're flaming her about her opinion on wedding fashion... Very well"

    Those were literally the words in my head

    ETA: your opinion on us needing Jesus is NOT flame worthy IMO because we totally do @dani+california‌

    I love you jelly but if you're going to be mad at anyone who said anything about the cocos it should be the folks who are glad you guys are gone. Everyone else was coming from a place of missing you guys

    You're not dumb girl. Don't care so much about what people think of you. Except me. I'm really important.
    It's not people, it's Jelly. I know we're not super close, but I like her. I'm also worried now that everyone else is going to come back all riled up and be mad at me when I even didn't say anything hateful against them. :(

    I'm not riled up. We are friends on Facebook and Instagram though, as I assume you are with a lot of people that don't participate regularly on here though, so I don't really get why you'd say what you did in UO. Doesn't really make sense.
