Here's mine - I actually have one this week. I kind if hope I get some sort of illness that prevents me from breastfeeding. Honestly the primary reason I do is because I can. And it saves lots of money. Ugh.
Yes, but to constantly tag her is like calling an ex-friend just to tell them you still hate them. It's saying, "Hey, look at us! We still hate you and are talking about you!"
We watch Frozen a lot, and Kristof reminds me of my high school crush. We watch it every few days, and never fails, he is in a dream that night. It's never sexual, it's usually just me fawning for him from a short distance, just like I did in high school, lol. But I dream about him a lot.

Julian had a blow out of diarrhea and puked in his bed last night. After I cleaned him up and threw everything in the wash, George was compromised..,so he had to be washed...so I gave him really stinky back up George....really stinky...but atleast it was vom free.

This why we have multiples of EVERYTHING. M is in love with this little cow that DH got her from VT. You cant get it anywhere but in this little town in VT 4 hours from us. His next trip up there, i made him buy 3 more.

I know what you mean. I do some fawning over a college crush on occasion. It's always those near-misses, shoulda banged them, people!! So frustrating.
I have 2 of these. They say you nearly never regret anything you did do, only the things you didn't. Or people you didn't, haha.
I'm probably going to lose my patience today. Hazel didn't go to sleep until 10:30 and only because Chris slept with her. Greta was up 3-5 and Owen woke us up at 6:30. Now Hazel is awake and crying. I'm done already.

I can so relate to this. When I EP'ed I had this simultaneous great hope and great fear that my supply would dry up.
Oh and another one, I get sick of H on vacation. It sounds bad, but it's true. I'm not used to him being around all the time. And doing everything together!
I'm such a spoiled only child and I need my alone time dammit.
I can see that. There were many times I wished my supply would just dry up so I could have a good reason to stop pumping.
Here's one, although it might be more of a UO: I think the frequent tagging of purple is excessive and mean-spirited.
Agreed. Bringing up her name in a joke is funny, the constant tagging is kinda childish. I'm afraid of offending a group and having it held over my head forever already and delete a LOT of my replies before posting, so the purple thing just adds to it for me. I actually deleted half of this before changing my mind and posting anyway.

My H has this new job and he's not coming home until after 7 every night. Life is fine without him. But now I just want him to back off and stop trying to parent because it's fakie parenting for the sake of thinking you have a presence.

My mom bought it when he was like 3 months from Kmart. She found another when he was like a yr old at kmart. She can't find more but she's found similar ones online. I told her to buy a bunch because both George's are starting to really stink up fast NAND he only wants this specific lovey.
My husband's last day of leave was yesterday so it was going to be me and the two kids. Luke is only a week old and I still have restrictions like I can't carry anything up the stairs and I need to limit my stair usage as much as possible. Thank goodness MIL offered to take Emmy today so I didn't have to chase a toddler around the house while recovering from this surgery.
My FFFC: I've been looking forward to today soooo much! That's not to say I won't miss Emmy or DH or feel slightly guilty that they are both out of the house but I am so excited to nap with Luke, probe, search for birth announcements, read a book, Candy Crush, and just lounge around getting newborn snuggles all day long.

E is running around with a bucket over his head, chasing Henry with various weapons ( sword, light saber, an air pump). I am completely ignoring it and sitting here in the kitchen hiding with coffee . No school today but DH has to work. I'm done already and it's only 8:15.

It's such a mind-game. I remember thinking that when I was pumping at work because it was such a pain, but then as soon as I started having problems with my supply I was doing anything I could to keep going. I'm pretty sure the money aspect was the only reason my H was as supportive as he was. Do what works best for you!

Meh, it's ok, if he falls his face is protected by his bucket "helmet". I hope he runs out all of his energy!
Thanks. Chris being zero MOTN help is wearing me out. I get that he wakes up at 4 and needs sleep so I let him. He also has a painfully loud alarm that he snoozes. I need to make that stop because it wakes me up.
In regards to Hazel, she is taking the transition to sleeping alone really hard and each night she goes to bed later and later. She wants me to sleep with her, but I have to get up with Greta. She also wants her paci back. She doesn't want Chris at all. We've tried more light and snacks and me cuddling witg her for a while. Nothing is working. What do we do?
Ella was like this a while ago...she wanted me to fall asleep with her every night, but there were things that needed to be done. Plus, she was falling asleep later and later. Grading and getting things ready for the next day at 9:30 at night just wasn't going to happen. So, we implemented a sticker chart (cheesy, I know). If she went to bed 7 nights in a row, we would take her to Barnes and Noble to get a book (obviously you could switch it up to whatever she likes to do). This went on for a couple weeks, and she started going to bed by herself.
After she watches a bit of Bubble Guppies, DH will go and read her a book and then I'll go in after Kate's in bed. We talk for a bit, and then I give her hugs and kisses, and close her door. Sometimes she'll call for us, but that's nothing in comparison to our old night time routine.

Ok... so, I'm sad for my mom's dog that he got hit by a car and died. I genuinely feel bad about it. BUT I am also kind of relieved he's gone. He pissed all over everything. Everything. If you left anything where he could get to it, even if it was only for a few minutes, he peed on it. This includes so many of C's toys. My mom never tried to fix whatever his problem was and by the end of his life no one even really liked him because he peed on everyone's shit constantly. She was going to re-home him at one point, and I wish she would have done it then because she didn't take care of him, then she started keeping them outside all the time unless it was raining or freezing, which is how he got out and subsequently hit by a car.
Sometimes when my dog starts to run away (and I see him doing so), I have a thought "maybe I should just let him". I don't because, well that's awful.
I also tried rehoming (via rescue routes) and no one would take them. They are too old.

I will try a chart. We have the same bedtime routine every night. She is just scared she says. I'm tempted to put Owen in there to see what happens
Ella falls asleep with the lights on every night (I sneak in to turn them off before I go to bed). That just started not too long ago as well. Before she was cool with night lights, and then all of a sudden, she saw shadows, or didn't like the butterflies on her wall. Toddlers are weird.

@gisa, with edie, i started doing a countdown. "hey, i'll stay here two more minutes...one more minute...OK, time for me to go and i love you so much!"
this is also weird and i NEVER thought it'd work, but it does. a friend i trust suggested when i lay in bed with edie and just play on my phone. edie LOVES my phone so i thought it'd be a distraction. but it was the opposite! i think she thought i was distracted so she didn't talk to me.
