DD has been asking for a sibling. It's kind of weird. At bed time, she'll say to me "Mommy, I want a baby sister. Or brother." Someone has to be telling her to say this....right? When we ask her if anyone has talked to her about it, she doesn't say anything. Like it's totally her idea.

I'm so confused about this round of ML drama ... I feel like I missed something somewhere. Or else everyone over there has caught some weird disease and is speaking in tongues. Lol.
We are returning to healthy eating today in an attempt to fit into winter clothing. It already sucks and its not even 9am.
I've never seen Febe used ever. And hope not to. :shudder:

She might have come up with it on her own. My DD1 used to say she wanted (and didn't want a sister). She also accidentally spilled the beans to my ILs when I was pregnant the second time.

I saw Febe written on a water bottle. I know the girls name is pronounced Phoebe. The could not have spelled it Febe, right?
The ML drama is that montereybride is a catfish. She had a bunch of different SNs over the years and tons of fake drama on each: Car accidents, divorces, boyfriends, several miscarriages (RAGE), etc. She also had a photobucket account with photos of other ppls kids, wedding photos, pg photos, etc.
Cheshgrin or whoever knew she was faking those other ppl, but didn't know for sure if she was faking this pregnancy and was standing up for her.

Dd went through this before DS came along. I think she picked it up at DC when all the other kids had brothers and sisters and she didn't. They pick it up pretty fast, so no one may necessarily be telling her.
Even kid shows are full of sibling relationships so they pick it up fast there too.
i bet she's picking it up from other kids. yesterday i was hanging out with two friends and their kids - the 3yo has a new baby sister and is obsessed. he turns to the 2.5yo, "I have a baby, she (points at me) has a baby... where's your baby?" of course the 2.5yo runs to his mom crying because "i don't have a baaaaabyyyyy." telling him that mom has a baby in her belly is not adequate. wonder how he'll feel when he gets a baby for his birthday this spring!

WHOOO boy. I had time, the Royals game took for-ev-er, but damn. I did miss the last few pages on the DD though.
I feel downright awful. I had a head cold, which I'm on the verge of kicking, but I can't take much for it. I did take something yesterday, which immediately made me so sick to my stomach I begged my husband to walk 2 blocks from his office to mine to rub my back and make me feel better. (Yes, yes, I did do that. And yes, he did come over.)

Thanks for the succinct recap, bunnymendelbaum - I was so lost.
As a reward (horrible punishment?), here's the trippiest music video I've ever seen. It's like a train wreck. I couldn't NOT finish watching it, but I hated myself the whole time. LOL (Note: the actual music is super annoying after the first 3 seconds or so, so feel free to turn it down/off).
I have never seen Febe used as a nickname for Phoebe. Strange.
We're having the trim on our house repainted. I can hear them outside working (scraping paint, walking on my roof, etc.) I feel so awkward being here while they are working. When I got home from work, they were on their lunch break sitting on our patio chairs (which I am totally ok with) and I felt like I should bring them cookies or something. It's like I have company that I am ignoring. I may need to go shopping just so I don't have to be here.
I have never seen the nickname spelled Febe, but I have seen/heard the nickname Phebe.
Today is our 37th anniversary. Yes, you read that correctly. We were kind of young young when we got married, so we are not that old. lol. We weren't high school young, but still on the young side. ;p We went to Epcot for the Food & Wine festival. It poured, then it was hot and humid, but it wasn't too bad.
The food was amazing. We still have more countries to conquer, so we'll go back again (and probably more than once) before it ends, but it is so nice to be able to go there and get back home before traffic gets bad. It was especially nice to go on a weekday and not have huge crowds too. We didn't drink (had to drive home), but we stopped on the way to home to stock the bar, and are having margaritas now to celebrate.

Drama rama on ML!! Makes me really like this board I don't understand catfishing.... Who has the time??
I haven't figure out how to post a pic with my screen name on here but did master the avatar! I showed my husband and he thought it looked just like me
I took today off from work because I had a painter come over and repaint my TV room.... For like the third time. My husband is a saint!
I tried to follow the ML drama but when it went back to stuff from TN I was lost.
Sorry to be an AW, had my 6 month weigh in and I'm down 56 lbs!
Congrats on the weight loss! That is amazing!!! What are you doing/ how did you lose it?
Thanks! Nothing too crazy. I go to a 30 min bootcamp 6 days a week, kinda a high intensity strength training. I walk the dog a few times a day, usually a longer walk on Sundays. 1800 cals a day, 40% protein / 30% carb (mostly veggies) / 30% fat. I try to eat well 90% of the time, and the 2 meals a week I kinda have whatever I want within reason (booze usually).

That is dedication! I lost 25 pounds three years ago with diet and exercise. I have kept it off after yo-yo dieting for years. I feel so much better... Keep up the great work!
