Apparently the theme of this WW based on many of your posts, and now my own experience, is "must be on mom's lap while she's pooping". This morning not only was he on my lap, but also facing me and clinging to me like a baby monkey. Fun times.
Ugh @picklex I'd be super anxious too. I think everyone gave good suggestions though!
Sorry about more sickness and a traumatic doctor visit @lizabethann06 :wine:
Love that video @casey78 so hilarious and adorable.

@sparkymcgeee another vote for your beautiful soul. I know extra weight can be draining, though, so I hope you're able to find a solution that helps you lose a bit and feel great.
Weight loss is about feeling good, not looking good. Too many people forget that. If you're comfortable with where you are then go on with your bad self! I for one will not be sporting a bikini anytime soon, I don't even want to wear shorts, but I sure ran around the hills of San Fran and didn't feel like passing out so I'm calling it a win.

FFMC. This is a norm for us, WW or not. It's gross but I feel like it's not worth fighting the battle with LO. I can't close the door on her or else she'll scream bloody murder because I've abandoned her and left her on the other side of the world with all her wonderful toys. She'd rather sit on my lap while I do my business. Bonus if we watch Elmo on my phone. Lots of times, she'll point and name my face parts. Great bonding time, really!
Thanks, everyone for your support and advice. I just want this week - which should be a fun, happy, time - to be over. The gherkin is allergic to too much to ask everyone to refrain from all of it, but I have asked for a peanut and tree nut ban. DH is happy to advocate but he is quite clueless about the ingredients of most foods. Many curries contain nuts, for example. Some breads contain milk. Some pastas have egg. Sesame is in random stuff. Every label must be read!
Page Two: @cshum24 I'm so sorry you had to listen to those things. Your DH needs a nut punch -.- Maybe several. Just know that you are a wonderful mom!
Page Four: @PrimRoseMama Your MIL makes me love mine more every time you post.
Page Five: @biggunsbo Your DH also deserves a good nut punch.
@Audrey1787 Ick. We're dealing with molars, too It's no fun.
Page 7: @PickleX I really hope that you and yours get through this week with no allergy issues! Food allergies suck.
Sorry to all the ladies whose men need a visit from the nut punch bus!
@altima80, bleeding is so scary and I'm hoping for the best for you! I had a bit of bleeding around 7/8 weeks and it scared the shit out of me. It ended up being fine, so positive vibes your way.
@byjove03, hang in there! We've also had some nap strikes thanks to this WW.
Add DS to the sick, miserable baby faction. He's got a cold going on and to top it off, his bottom molars are coming through. Plus he's in the middle of world's worst WW. Let's just say surviving without wine has been rough. :-S
We basically did. I have my blanket, and was letting him use the comforter before he started stealing my blanket so that half my butt or one leg was out and freezing. Now he has another cover besides the comforter and we share the comforter but he steals it
Any good, recent, airplane entertainment ideas? When we flew in October we brought pom poms and a new toy <these> which were a hit. But I'm thinking we need something new. Can you download episodes of Elmo to an ipad? Will that piss other people off? Any other small toys you'd recommend that I could easily get at target or the like?
Feli goes nuts with stickers. If you haven't introduced Clara to them yet, maybe the novelty factor will be good for an hour or two?
Also, there's a free app from a cat food manufacturer that is geared towards cats, as in getting them to swat at an on-screen mouse (I think? Moms on my neighborhood FB group mentioned it). Maybe try that?
I haven't caught up on all of this yet. But I just noticed I made the book K is going to open on Christmas Eve from Santa. Can someone remind me to rewrap that tonight??
Clearly I am going to fail at this Santa thing.
This is one of the reasons Santa doesn't wrap gifts. He doesn't have time for that!

Bring your dear friend that came home with you and LO from the hospital: peri bottle.
LO somehow found mine this weekend and I got sooo much accomplished while she played with it. When she started getting bored with it, I filled it with ribbons and poms and it bought me just the time I needed to wrap all my presents.
ETA Any plastic bottle will do if you didn't take one of these magical things home with you.
Woke up to find a mouse had shredded a roll of toilet paper in the bathroom. Seriously? Little bastard. I have 3 traps set in the kitchen because that's where I had seen it and well food. But no...it decides to taunt me by destroying stuff elsewhere. Oh it is on rodent!
@blairwitch maybe he's visiting from my house. I found 2 shredded paper towel rolls this weekend.
He can't get in huh, dh? :-q
Eta: I meant toilet paper. Lol
July 13 Siggy ChallengeDecember'14:Christmas/Holiday Movie
It's nice being on holidays, I feel like I can finally catch up around here!!
I've got cookie dough chilling for our melted snowman cookies and cleaning away!! I have to sit and finish a scarf for my sil tonight......my excuse to sit and crochet in peace!!!
I turned on a movie of old Christmas classic cartoons for Noah. I haven't been paying attention but every time I look up, it seems more creepy and less like Christmas. WTH...
Thanks for the good thoughts ladies!! My ultrasound showed good news. Nothing bad going on. I'm just on progesterone now until the placenta takes over.
@econmama glad your colonoscopy is over. After mine, I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis. :-( Did they mention colitis or did they jump straight to Chrones?

Cards with glitter on them should only be sent to one's enemies
I got twitterpatted by some glitter wrapping paper and wrapped something on the conference table at work. I went in there today and my boss had a student in there and they both had green glitter all over them. They looked like they been in a strip bar.
Coconut smell + bronzer = strip club memories for me.
Zoe's Christmas shoes are glittery. DH picked them out haha. At Christmas on Saturday I heard DHS aunt discussing where she thought the glitter on the floor was coming from... :-\" lol. I fessed up.

@sparkymcgeee good for your dh. Mine is the sane way. He's been doing so well health and weight wise and is down to the eight he was in hs when we met!
@biggunsbo My dh also cannot go to the grocery store without a detailed list. So frustrating!
@PickleX I'd be terrified too. I remember spending last Christmas at the ILs hovering over P so that they didn't try to feed him something that he hadn't had yet or could choke on. I couldn't imagine dealing with allergies.
Today is the first day in several that I've had two take a second Zofran. Ugh.... I thought this crap was going away? DH made me a English muffin and is cooking dinner for himself and P.
Ohhhhh I remember what I was going to tell you all. A girl in my secret mom's FB group shared the cover pic of a girl she used to be friends with. Girl was naked and covering her ham wallet was an actual wallet with money coming out of it. Gives a whole new meaning to ham wallet.
and now my mom just bought everything left on the list except for one thing (cuz wherever she went didn't have it) and there are still four people who haven't touched the list ~X( This is exactly what we were trying to avoid w/my f-i-l. My mom even said, "[insert my f-i-l's name here] didn't buy everything on the list, did he?!" No, he actually listened, unlike you. ~X( She sends this as a response: "Given that Christmas is two days away the others must have bought things not on the list." Uhhh...not necessarily. There's still time left to order things w/Prime. Million dollars she now asks me what Prime is. :-O
