I wish Birkenstocks were "in" again, because they are damn comfortable.
I flat ironed C's hair the other day and it looks so cute!
We are going shopping tomorrow and DH told me to look for a Mother's Day gift. I'm just wondering how much I can get him to spend.
Ummm, I still wear mine.
Me too. I figure they have been around for 40-something years, so they will eventually come "in" again. Until then, I consider myself a fashionista that is ahead of the trend
I haven't read everything yet, but I actually have one and I don't want to forget it. Sadies's first taste of WCM was today. Completely unceremoniously at Shipley's Donuts. We got two for there and a dozen for home, and the guy started to give us the dozen for there. I guess he thought H and I could put down 14 doughnuts in one sitting.

I'm starting to get really annoyed by my cousin and his family. They are in so much debt but are constantly posting about the new car they have or the cruise they are going on or this new gun they just bought. I'm sick of it. I work my ass off and it just makes me sick.
My h isn't the problem in our relationship. It is ME and I know it. I find it impossible to tell him what I need. I always have had a problem expressing that. It isn't his fault that he sometimes doesn't chip in the way I want--he doesn't know!
I have gotten much better over the years and I hope to keep working on it. But, I just want to point out that it isn't always the man who is the problem.
This is me 100%. I suck at communicating what I need and I feel like I am barking orders when I have to tell DH what I need. I had a little freak out last week where I felt like I was doing everything. After hearing from the ladies on here that I need to communicate and let him do it his way, I had a good heart to heart with my H. He told me what he has told me before, he wants me to tell him exactly what I want. So I made lists for during the day when he is home with the baby and now there is a clear expectation.
He's always done all the vacuuming and laundry and I sleep in on the weekends while he handles everything but now he's picking up after himself and the baby during the day, and that was the huge issue--I felt like I can keep the house clean when I am home with J so why does he feed him lunch and not sweep the damn floor? Dudes honestly are dense to the mess sometimes. So I've specifically had to ask him to clean up the floor after he gives J lunch. And now it's not an issue. But it was really all my issue just not communicating.
So I must echo what TrudyCampbell is saying: ladies, ask and ye shall receive!
We don't always get along but we're trying for number 2. I'm not sure how well we can afford things or how things will be done then road, but I'm really happy we are trying. I feel like people are going to judge me because my sister is pregnant, and theres also 5 other people at work knocked up.

Did you reconcile? I don't think I remember seeing that.
Things have been a lot better between us. We have been able to communicate better and I have to get it through my head that he's here to help me and that I can't do it alone. I try to do it all out of spite apparently. I'm shocked someone remembered. Thank you.
My Fffc is that I'm still sugar sober but I recently found this YouTube channel where this guy does "Oreo Oration". He cracks open a different type of Oreo cookie and judges it. I'm not a big Oreo fan, but hearing you ladies talk about birthday cake Oreos had my interest piqued. Now I've watched tons of these damn videos and I'm practically quivering because I want some so bad. Ugh. Thank goodness my weigh in is tomorrow and I'll hopefully be renovated,

I remembered too. I hope things keep improving for you guys!

I remembered also. Did he move out at one point? Are you living together now? As you already know having a kid can be a huge strain on a marriage. Speaking from experience, having 2 kids can be even more.

He was going to move out and back to Indiana which is five hours away. But we talked things over because he wouldn't be able to come down as often as he liked to see L. So he is still here and has a job interview today. Hopefully he gets it because it seems like he is declining the longer he goes with out work. He needs something to boost his spirit.
