@vicmo - I think you get a pass on quoting ages in months up until 2 years. After that it's just weird.
My favorite part of today was when my SIL declared that we have to get her and BIL a specific wine rack - which we can conveniently find on her Amazon wish list - for Christmas. If you want to order a wine rack for Christmas just go on Amazon and order the damn thing for yourself, SIL. It's called a gift and we get to pick what we give you.
O got up at four on Thursday, then five this morning, plus wake ups in the night. He has a rattle in his breathing, so he got his nebulizer tonight, and now I need to go to sleep in case of another pre dawn wake up!
Today has been a long ass day starting with HA pj black friday shopping and ending with this.
Christmas has arrived at the Donut house!
I'm jealous of your Elsa ornament!!!
We found Olaf but that's it.
Hallmark online keeps having it go in and out of stock and you can have it sent to a store! We have Olaf from hallmark too and then got Anna from Kohls, but it came with half her foot missing so we have to try and find another!
Our cop neighbor is in our woods coon hunting. Dh saw his flashlight. Wtf does one do with a dead racoon? I find this highly amusing. It might explain why DD drew a picture today and dh asked her if the big kid in the picture was standing on the little kid. "NO DADDY, THAT'S JUST A DEAD ANIMAL!" Obvs.
We're headed out tomorrow for small business Saturday. We plan to brunch along Main St one $10 AmEx purchase at a time .

had thanksgiving with the in-laws today. they were so loud that DS was scared. that family yells constantly. i hate it. I took him home right after the meal.
but they have a small dog (mini greyhound?) and ds loved her, it was so funny to watch. he was like what is this thing!
today is ending much better than it started. the power is back on, my car only cost me $200 to fix (much better than the $600-1000 we initially heard), and we got some christmas shopping done!
now im into left over pie and wine. and maybe shopping online.
I just can't imagine in this day that retailers really think people are going to pay for shipping, or pay a lot for shipping.
BB&W was crazy busy before our movie, so I figured I would just order online. They want $6 for shipping. Uh, no.
I really need some more lotion so I thought I'd order it online rather than running out to the store. I was so disappointed when I realized how much shipping was I ended up emptying out my cart and will have to brave the mall this weekend after all.
I think we're going to ask MIL and FIL to stay until Sunday instead of leave tomorrow like they'd planned. We could use the help, especially since H has to do some WFH tomorrow.
I feel a little bad, but hell, they stay with BIL/SIL/nephews at least a full week when they fly out there. I need it.
The stores were way too crazy today. I much preferred when the deals started at 5am and everyone went home and went to sleep. Now they shop Thurs night AND Fri or skip Thurs. I liked my quiet stores.
I put up our tree tonight. I tested each set of lights before I put them up. Of course OF COURSE the second half of the first set is out now.
I also had 2 boxes of clear C7s in the tub of lights that I vaguely remember buying after seeing something on pinterest last year. I did mini white lights first, then the c7s. I thought it would stand out more, but it's still fun. I can't wait for N to see the tree when he wakes up, he loves "chritmas trees"
Also, I just finished the thank you cards from his birthday party, which was 5 weeks ago. Oops! My main reason for doing them finally was that I want to get a jump on christmas cards, and can't send those before the thank yous!
I need a new phone but my upgrade isn't until august. But my screen is shattered and i want a new phone but i don't want to pay full price. :-( lame random.
Tomorrow we go look at a new house. I'm so sick of this process and the amount of money we've spent on inspections. This new one needs some work but is really cheap so we could do it. I just want a house. Yesterday.
We bought that felt tree from Target but it's making my Type A self crazy because only the tiny things are actually sticking. I plan on buying Velcro dots tomorrow to remedy myself from cringing every time I look at it.
I've reached the stage of pregnancy where I'm routinely up for a 2+ hour block each night, but tonight DD has been up since 11:30 screaming from teeth so I'm predicting a much longer awake block.
DD made a humongous poop while sleeping. I asked DH to help me and he was so useless. He somehow forgot where the sleep diapers are and walked away when I asked him to get Desitin. He kept shining the flashlight right at her face too.
But this poop was so crazy. Like up the back and filled a sleep diaper and still came out the legs. I wiped so much just now. Ugh.
It was probably because the only thing she ate at Thanksgiving was cranberries. LOL
