DD got into the butt paste yesterday while I was trying to get some work done. (I was staying home with her because she was sick). Instead of immediately removing her from the situation, I let her play with it and smear it around on her face, so I could finish some work.
ETA - I don’t know why I can’t keep straight DD and DS. I have a DD, so if you ever read DS, it’s just my pregnant brain. I wonder if it’s because my DD has a name that is initials....
The only reason I’m going to the family gathering I was informed of yesterday for tomorrow night and expected to attend is because of the food.
BBQ ribs with homemade sauce and homemade Mac and cheese actually sound appetizing. And any food that sounds in any way appetizing will get my there even if I’m pissed off at all my family right now.
this is my backup acct. prevously helloblueeyes

@mdmommymegs, I've pretty much been living on pizza for the last two weeks. Not even gonna feel guilty!
@lovelybabybumpz, she probably loved the texture! That's like me right now... I put my kid in a timeout and he hasn't tried to come out of his room yet so I haven't told him the timeout is over cause I need the quiet .
@thatbaintforbetty, oh my gosh, I have to get DH to make mac and cheese this weekend. That sounds amazing. I would totally just go for the food too!
I'm currently eating a turkey sub as i write this immediately following my doctor's apt. She said "limit fish and only pasteurized cheeses" so I'm taking her ommission as a freebie today.
I made pork loin the other night, then hid the leftovers on the fridge from DH. There was o my enough left for 1 sandwich and it was delicious lol
DS has watched way too much Mickey Mouse Clubhouse this week becaue a) I’m tired and fell crappy 90% the time and b) he’s having some seperation anxiety from DD (she started full day kindergarten this year) so anything to keep him from having a meltdown tantrum. He literally cries for the first hour we’re home after dropping her off
@roo1381 I had a turkey sandwich at a work event last week, even though there was a suitable non lunch meat alternative. But the turkey club sounded good and by the time I thought of it, I had already taken a bite and it was too late to go back and swap it. I grabbed seconds for later (on the way out) though, and I chose the chicken breast.
@mdmommymegs there is absolutely nothing flame-worthy about eating pizza. I eat it (and post about it here) every single chance I get!
My confession is that H has been away for work for a couple of days and I have been letting our son sleep in our bed because I am just too damn tired to fight him into his crib and then get woken up every hour following. I suck and usually bring him in by the middle of the night anyway, but we're barely even making it into the crib at this point. Nothing like reinforcing bad habits!
I'm gonna put this in here because I'm doing it despite the fact that I will absolutely feel guilty about it.
I'm gonna go grocery shopping after work instead of going straight to DC to pick up DS. The idea of taking him to the store tonight is so absolutely exhausting that I just can't do it. He has me all weekend after that so hopefully it won't scar him too bad, ha.
I love other people’s drama. Be it bump drama or IRL drama. But I am so non-confrontational. I won’t start drama, or stir the pot, but if I see it brewing you best believe I will be there with my popcorn.
There used to to be a llama thread on another BMB that would scour for contentious threads and report back. Best believe I followed that shit until it got shut down.
@lovelybabybumpz people who say they don’t like drama are the ones who create it in the first place. Everyone enjoys watching a dumpster fire! We had sooooo many in my last BMB. I can’t wait for the juicy shit to come out!
@MRDCle I wanted that glass of wine last night. I settled for the largest salted caramel mocha with whipped cream I could get at Starbucks today. And then let DD taste it.
Caffeine schmaffeine. I deserved it. Also I’m pretty sure evens out over the course of a week of no caf.
I plan on having a baby shower during this pregnancy, even though we had one when we started foster care like 1.5yrs ago (which crashed and burned, and we gave the stuff to someone else afterwards), and some people say you only get one shower per lifetime (and I'm guessing some of my dad's family will be annoyed... Maybe they won't be invited then!! But then they'll be mad about that... Can't win!). I figure this baby is different though, since I'm having to puke for weeks and I'll have to push them out of my "danger clam" (name stollen from another thread lol) lol. I love baby showers and all the cute stuff and want to limit how much I have to buy myself!
@MRDCle I drank a little of my husband’s wine the other night. Once im in second and third trimester I’ll buy the 4-packs of single serving wine. I did this during my first pregnancy too. Once a week I’d pull out a single serving bottle, pour myself a half glass (donate rest to husband), take a bath and watch TV. It was my favorite part of the week.
@roo1381 I had half a turkey sandwich today. I was at a 5 hour faculty meeting and it was literally the only option for lunch. Oh well. youre still more likely to get sick from fresh greens.
Btw. My FFFC today is that I’m secretly really, really glad my kiddo didn’t nap today at school. It means I can get him to bed really early. Which means I can get me to bed really early. Yesssss
I’ve been really, really unproductive at work for the past month and product management just pulled a deadline forward by a month, and now I have to work all weekend
@molecularmolly nothing wrong with celebrating baby! They all deserve to be celebrated and showered with Love! I've had 2 showers and a sprinkle and I will have a something with this one as well as most of our friends and family know we have donated and passed along most of your baby items. Plus I think its rude to tell someone who wants to throw you a shower No. I find in my circles people want to celebrate the little ones especially now that most of your littles have grown up so much!
I have been craving sushi since the day I found out I was pregnant and read a bunch of articles today saying Japanese ladies don’t stop eating it while pregnant and they’re fine, so this week I’m gonna go for it!
@suchagoodone as long as it’s a really reputable source, you’re probably fine. The recommendations for pregnancy drive me crazy. They’re not evidence based and they’re infantilizing.

I have switched to pounding iced tea and Arnold Palmers.
