after a particularly harrowing dinner-in-restaurant-with-two-kids experience last night I told my H that if I accidentally get pregnant again I'm going to jump off a bridge.
He said I was being silly "no, you'd be fine.. you'd do it all again and be very happy! You'd say, I can't imagine not having X new baby!" what kind of talk is this from a man who is DEFINITELY done having children?! I'm going to have to physically take him to the doctor for the vasectomy.
although on the plus side, if I do change my mind he'll probably be an easy sell.

laurack - I used to want a surprise third baby. That was before 2. Now we are both set on 2. It sounds like he needs the vasectomy ASAP ... If you are sure you won't change your mind

well I'm on the pill so as long as I keep taking that I think we should be good.
I'm feeling more and more done all the time but also I know things could change when william actually starts STTN. I'm assuming they won't but not ready to do anything permanent yet. I think we'll wait a year more then if I'm still sure get it done.
I really hope I continue being sure I'm 2 and done!!

I asked Natalie what she wants for her birthday dinner tomorrow, and she said hot dogs and muffins. Maybe we will do the muffins for breakfast instead, lol.

it's amazing to see stuff grow even overnight. Yesterday I had flowers on a lot of plants, and today there are tiny squashes, zuchinnis, pumpkins, peas, beans, and tomatoes. Going to have a huge amount of food in May and June I think.

I hosted a playdate this morning with one of Adam's friend's (and his two siblings). So basically for two hours there were 5 kids destroying my mostly tidy home...... I have zero desire to put all of this crap back where it belongs.
Adam has his first t ball practice tonight, it's going to be fucking cold, and DH will not be home until like 8pm. I'm ready over it. I can just see them both whining the entire time.
In very related news, I just ate half of a hollow Easter Bunny.
@beth422 None of my non-internet friends have lost their moms so being on here has helped w/that, being able to talk to people that can relate if I/you/we need to. This really is a wonderful place. I hope you are able to get out of work and do whatever it is that you want to do to make this day suck a little less. ((hugs))
@beth422 hugs! It'll be 9 years next month since my dad died. It's hard. I struggle with a lot of the same things you do; he didn't see me graduate high school, wasn't able to walk me down the isle and never got to meet my H or his grandchildren. It never seems to get easier. I hope you're able to do something for yourself today.
my fwp today... decisions decisions my tj's has cold brew in stock. Last year they sold out early and never got it back. So, do I hoard it (at $8 a bottle) or just hope for the best and that they can keep up with demand this year?
I'm running my first half marathon tomorrow and I had crappy sleep last night and woke up feeling sick this morning. Sore throat, stuffy nose, etc. AND I think AF is about to show up. AND it's supposed to pour rain the entire time.
The universe is conspiring against me to make this the most miserable experience of my life.
Good luck!! I hope you feel better tomorrow and the rain misses you. But even if it doesn't, push through! You've got this!! . My first half was so hard, but felt so good to finish. I'm running my second in October. I'll be thinking of you tomorrow. You'll have to update how it goes!
fusion - I used to hunt for snails with my papa when I was little! Loved it.
I am over the moon that today is Friday. The weather has been nasty all week and I feel like my head is about to explode, plus DH just texted me that our area is flooding and I should probably come home earlier than normal. I'm less excited about PT boot camp this weekend. Underpants lasted for about 10-15 minutes last night before G had an accident and freaked. Confession: I missed the little diapered bottom look.
laurack it depends on what I ask on whether or not it gets done. I can't recall him ever telling me no, he just never gets up and does it. Or he will do it half way. We have no dishwasher. Dishes pile up quickly. He'll do half of them, then stop because the water goes cold but he will never go back and finish washing them.
Hugs ciescalove! When I want H to do something, I give him two choices. Do you want to give B a bath, or clean up the kitchen? None of those choices ever involve sitting in his recliner which is where he would stay if I didn't ask. He usually picks the path of least resistance, but at least it's getting something done. ,could you try that and see if it works? And I get not wanting to have to give him praise. My H wants lots of praise for doing house stuff (to be fair, he does majority of the outside stuff, plus mows for his dad and gma too), but I'm always have you thanked me every day for cleaning the kitchen 20 times, sweeping, etc? Nope.

We made it out of the house today! We went out to breakfast with my mom and SIL and to target. I am exhausted though. W is eating and then we're both going to take a nap.
We were firmly in the DINK camp. Then C surprised us. Then we debated another for a long time (recall my post about 9.5 months ago asking if I wanted a second?). I absolutely in no way want a third. No, no,no, no, no.
My husband was already talking about "next time" while I was still in labor.
