This is more of a confession but I spent $47 on items from the dollar spot today. There were so many goodies!
I keep browsing makeup online and then remind myself of the effort involved to get myself to Sephora and I close the tab. I also need new glasses but keep putting off for the same reason. And because I'm annoyed Warby Parker can't make my Rx.
Our microwave died earlier this week. I never realized how often I use the microwave. DS often has our leftovers the next night for dinner and it's a PITA without the microwave.
After 3 nights microwave-less, I've sent DH out to get a new one. I sent DH because I don't leave the house after, like 7. Ever, lol

Now I've spent 15 minutes looking at that stupid white and gold dress, AND convinced myself I will need to spend my entire lunch hour perusing the Dollar Spot.
I guess so, but I'm also one of those people that thinks co-ed baby showers are weird. So apparently I'm just out of date on this one.
I really think he will be involved. His own dad was not in his life very much, so I know he doesn't want that for his own kid. At least him and the mom to be seem really civil, keep in touch regularly and both want what's best for the kid.
how would you feel about a gay male couple having a baby together? should they also not have a shower?
just food for thought. I think of the shower as to prepare the household for a baby, which traditionally fell to the female but that isn't always the case.
True. I wouldn't think anything of a gay couple having a baby shower.
I guess it just throws me off since aren't bridal shower about preparing a house for a marriage? Those events don't seem to have gone co-ed as much as baby showers have recently, at least in my circles. So it's just interesting that baby showers seem to have swung to co-ed while wedding/bridal showers haven't.

1 - why didn't I think to give DS leftovers from the night before as dinner?! I've been fixing him a separate meal.
2 - These days I try to not leave the house after 7/7:30 and am normally relaxing in bed around 8:30. It makes me feel old but I'm so tired!
Dudeeeee. Leftovers are where it's at! We walk through the door at 5:45 and by then he's a very hangry toddler. If I don't have leftovers, I have time to make maybe a grilled cheese before he freaks out demanding food.
I'm also an old person. I'm going out with girlfriends tomorrow night. Our dinner reservations are for 8 and all I can think is I've usually had dinner & I'm on the couch in my PJs by then.

It's 8:06 here and I'm in bed in my PJs, LOL. At least you manage to stay in the living room!
My PJs are a long-sleeved gap maternity t and the sweats I've been wearing since 4 p.m., because I was too lazy to change into proper pajamas.

Because I work from home, I've alternated the same 2 pairs of maternity leggings (often with shirts that don't cover my butt!) everyday for the last 8 months.
#feelbadformyhusband
Haha. I have at least 14 pairs of (non-maternity) leggings that I have worn through 2 pregnancies at this point. I can go weeks without wearing waisted pants.
Some of them are probably bordering on indecent at this point and should be replaced with nicer, thicker, appropriate-for-someone-31-who-has-2-kids-and-is-not-skinny, versions.
Speaking of poop, my toddler should have more adult like poop now right? (Meaning, logs) he is chronically peanut butter texture. Idk if that's nirmal considering he doesn't really like food all that much. :/
H and I just got back from my first prenatal appointment and my OB said I was a good candidate for VBAC! This was a shocker to me because I thought my never pushing and only getting to 2 meant failure to progress. Also H recorded the baby's heartbeat because "he didn't get to last time." <3 <3 <3
My husband won this debate. We find out tomorrow. My OB called our bakery and told them and I pick up the cake tomorrow. No party, just cake. Because I love cake. We're going to Skype my family in.

Ugh, I'm feeling sorry for myself. I was supposed to go get a pedicure and brow wax tonight. I've been looking forward to it all week. My appointment was for 7:30 and usually L is asleep between 6:30-7:00. Wouldn't you know that just because I had somewhere to go tonight that it took me over an hour to get him to sleep. By that time it was almost 8:00 so I had to cancel my appointment. I'm so disappointed with him and myself. I feel like I've ruined my kid.
Took C to the pedi today and saw a NP about possible reflux. She seemed to think I was making shit up because he was perfectly calm during the appointment, gave me probiotics and sent me on my way. If those don't work they'll prescribe Zantac.
I'm somewhat annoyed because she was like "it's just colic." Um, what I described is nothing like colic but thanks? He is definitely not colicky.
Ugh this happened to us a few times. Bring FTM I doubted myself enough as is, I didn't need the "medical professionals" adding to that. I feel like colic is the catch all for we don't know what's wrong but eventually they will probably grow out of it. Grrrr
$3600 is so freaking much money. I doubt the average American earns that monthly after taxes. I am having an anxiety attack by proxy. If I can stay with my in home lady it will be about $1750 a month (including two half-days of preschool for J). A center is more like $2250. Even those numbers are not good. NOT GOOD AT ALL.
Yeah, it sucks. We are going to be on.a tight budget, but obviously are lucky to be able to pay it. But it still scares me. I will feel so rich when we are done with daycare!

The dress thread is seriously making me anxious. WHY are we seeing two different things? I have not found a sufficient reason. This is legitimately putting a damper on my good interview day!

There's an explanation in the MM thread. I'm too lazy to C&P on my phone.
