So almost two weeks ago I finished my registry at BuyBuyBaby. I ordered a pack n play that they only had a broken floor model of. So they called another store and had them ship it to me. So I call on Tuesday and ask where the heck it is. They tell me I'll get it Wednesday, Thursday latest. Cool. So yesterday around 4 I still had not received it. I call again. They tell me that they looked it up and should be delivered by end of day. Cool. It never got delivered. So I called this morning. I asked them to give me the darn tracking number so I can track it myself. I track it-- it only says a label has been made!!!!!!!!!!! So I just called BBB back and asked why/how someone was able to tell me it would be delivered by end of day yesterday if fedex only indicates that a label has been made. That poor, sweet girl is going to look into it and give me a call back. SHE BETTER! Ahhhh!
Congratulations, @lizhurt!! Love his name! It reminds me of the Kennedys. I've always had a thing for that family. My fave names for a long time were jack and Caroline haha!!
@JYesi0812 completely with you on the football. DH doesn't invite friends over and it's on mornings and midday here but combined with him being a basketball fan too I'm so sick of sports and cartoons being the only thing on our tv
We are going to the park today so my SIL can take a few family pics before Lukas gets here. We picked a good day, since a "cool front" has hit, bringing our upper 90s temps down to mid 80s. But I feel like ass today and I don't think my husband is too thrilled to be going. I'm off to get my son and daughter ready and hoping for a burst of energy like I had yesterday afternoon.
I'm 38 weeks ladies due July 1st , still thinking I'll bee waiting at least a week after that , Pelvis is in constant pain , and all bones are cracking literally not one bone in my body hasn't cracked , and guess what it's soccer season !!! YES IT'S HERE , my husband favorite part of the year when he forgets about anything else then his games , this means I have 5 or 6 men in my living room yelling Goaaal !! Untill 10 or 11 pm and not only that but my 3 year old won't go to bed because he needs to watch the games with Dad and to top it all up he decides to buy a new car , yes a new car !!! So my days are going from several car dealers to long soccer nights , somebody needs to remind these two I'm 2 weeks from delivery !!! Loving my experience through 2 Pregnancy , wouldn't change it for nothing ❤ !!
Call me judgey, but I'd never let my 3 year old buy a car.
I've never thought newborn babies were that cute until I started seeing the pics in our birth announcement thread. Maybe it's the hormones or maybe y'all just make really cute babies. I love it!
My husband heated up some lasagna for me while I was doing other kitchen things. For some reason he thinks that in order to properly reheat things in a microwave you need to heat it for a minimum of 10 minutes. I set aside my lava-hot lasagna to get ready to run errands and completely forgot about it before walking out the door. I guarantee my 3 dogs will eat it AND break the bowl it is sitting in the process. I hate baby brain.....
@sboston06 haha I felt the same way!! I was totally prepared for a newborn that looked like a potato! I was pleasantly surprised that I find him cute but I am his mom after all... I think seeing the others helped cement that there are some cute newborns out there!
I just baked a chocolate cake for my mom's birthday but I want to eat it now. I made some fudge frosting for the outside and I'm putting marshmallow creme inside and I wish I didn't have to wait until tomorrow.
@stellaluna14 That sounds amazing. That sounds like something to put on my list of things to devour when this baby comes out and takes my diabetes with him.
My husband is an asshole. I got him a baby onsie with his favorite soccer team logo on it, Argentina. He's been a fan since I met him 15 years ago and has talked nonstop about how he hopes our kid likes soccer like he does, how he wants to coach the team, etc. He opened it, said thanks, and then asked (while laughing hysterically) why I am giving him baby clothes for Father's Day and why I picked that out of everything I could have gotten him. F U.
@rlopezlavalle I'm sure he will proudly dress baby in that onesie whenever Argentina plays! I think it's a cute gift!
Thanks! He did apologize and say he didn't mean for it to come out that way. I'm sure my discomfort and being so freaking hot played into how I reacted to his comment.
@RideNRunMomma Congratulations on baby Legan! He is precious! But I read your birth story blog post and oh, I am SO sorry how traumatic that all was for you! I am seriously angry with how that whole situation was handled. That's awful. Lots of prayers for your healing, physically and emotionally, and I hope LO continues to heal and improve!!!

I can't sit up straight because with the weight of my boobs pushing on the top of my stomach it's hard to breathe. I can't lay down because heartburn and indigestion is killing me. My body just feels exhausted at this stage.
Random STM advice after going to the grocery store: if you plan to breastfeed, keep lots of one-hand easy access finger snacks available for the first few weeks. I was RAVENOUS when breastfeeding, and the last thing you want to do when you're recovering and learning to care for your newborn is prepare any food.
@RideNRunMomma Congratulations! I was just thinking about you and wondering why we hadn't heard from you in awhile. I'm so sorry about your birth experience. It sounds like they really messed up left and right.
July BMB Siggy Challenge: Weird Hot Dog Situations
To add to @jen11797's advice: if anyone has access to a Hy-Vee (I'm not sure how widespread they are,) use their online Aisles ordering. They will deliver your order to you the next day at a time you select for free if your order is over $100. If it's less, it's still only $5. I plan on utilizing this a lot more when baby is here and I'm not comfortable going out on my own yet!
