I'm thinking about taking a lady up on her child care offer, which I saw on FB. She's in my neighborhood, she's licensed and has no incident reports when I searched LARA. However not knowing the person or knowing anyone who knows her, I'm side-eyeing the shit out of myself.
I have 5 christmas stockings in my Pottery Barn Kids shopping cart right now. 3 of them will be personalized as "Dad" "Mom" and "Beverly." I'm buying the other 2 for our future children (whether we have 1 more or 2 more) and will personalize them at a later time. PBK will run out of this design by the time I'm lucky enough to be pregnant with baby #2, and I want all the stockings to be the same design. I can't decide if this is either really smart of me or totally psycho.

I will side-eye the crap out of you if you "dainty-sneeze." (Thank you coworker for sounding like a cartoon mouse with your sneeze for inspiring this.) No one's sneezes sound like, "Achoo" in a little fairy butterfly princess voice. (Hopefully this makes sense.) Just sneeze naturally (covering your mouth, obviously).
We can still be friends...but I'll side-eye your sneezes.
@peachy13 that's not a crazy idea, because I just went to look to see if we can get this little guy the same stocking that we have for DD, nope! Now I think I'm going to buy new ones just so they all match.
@peachy13 Thank you for letting me know that PBK has their stockings out for this year. I bought 3 for DH, DD, and I last year and crossed my fingers and toes that they would have the same style when a new baby came along. Just checked and they do!!! Wooo!!
(And totally not crazy - I think it's smart! If I knew what DD2's name was going to be I would order hers right now!)
Also stocking related, I'm irrationally upset that there will be 6 stockings this year, which throws off my odd number balance. Looks like the dogs are going to be condensed to 1 stocking. Pic from last year, no idea how to rotate.
@MJDsquared.....guilty of "dainty" sneezes over here. Actually, people tell me I sneeze like a mouse. I have done it my whole life. If I think about it when sneezing, I can sneeze normally, but it it's been "repressed" for so long, that it just doesn't happen naturally. It's not at all deliberate.
Momma to Amelia Marie (7/14) and Austin Samuel (11/17). Adding baby (girl) #3 on 7/21
I feel like I sneeze different when pregnant. I usually have dainty sneezes (my sisters call them "cat sneezes" or "spritzes"), usually like 4-5 in a row. But for some reason when I sneeze now it's like a big booming lumberjack sneeze, it practically shakes the whole house.
I'm tired of getting skinny jeans and $X dress emails from Old Navy. They totally have enough data on my past purchases to know that I'm plus size (aaaaand they separately price their plus size clothes so those aren't really $16 dresses for me kthanx) and pregnant. Send me an email that says "maternity clothes on sale in your size in a store near you" and I'm all for it.
@MJDsquared you'd hate my sneeze then. It's how I've always sneezed, but it's very quiet. Lots of time after I do it people look at me and say "did you just sneeze"?
