Monday night randoms.

[AndyCohen]

I really miss being able to just walk for hours when A was fussy or wouldn't sleep. I can't do that with toddler in tow.

[honeybee503]

That's crazy, fadedscars!

Did anyone else see the Bubble Guppies episode with RuPaul as a guest voice yet? The line, "buttons can be a real drag" killed me.

[AndyCohen]

Yikes fadedscars! I replied before I read. I hope his wife is ok

[carawestt]

My H took both boys to the store, I don't remember the last time the house was this quiet.

[carawestt]

I hope everything ends up being okay over there, fadedscars!

[dojo]

Eep! Get him out of the neighbourhood!

[unclejesse]

Well, A loved gymnastics class. He, however didn't care to listen great. He told the coach that HE was the line leader, not her. When Firework by Katy Perry came on, he stopped doing the activity they were doing, ran to the middle of the floor and started dancing and singing his lungs out. The parents around us were all whispering "who's kid is that!?" Um, the couple down in front completely red and laughing with tears.
I think we made an impression.
This is him hanging on the bar

Just earlier today I was randomly thinking about my FIL and his health/age. I honestly can't remember what sparked the thoughts, but I was just sitting there thinking about how sad it'll be when he's gone.
Well fast forward to tonight, MIL calls Wes while I'm putting Logan down. When I come downstairs Wes is still on the phone sitting outside. I go out there and apparently MIL wants to talk to me. We aren't really on that great of terms so in my head I was all "great, what does she want to bitch at me for this time" But instead she went super sappy. Talking about how she loves having me around and that I'm a great and loving DIL and she feels lucky to have me" WTAF?
We end the call and Wes tells me that FIL is going to be tested for throat cancer this week. Also his doctors are beginning to think something might be going on neurologically and will be running some tests on the brain as well.
I am mildly freaking out. FIL is so awesome and so loving. And I am feeling so weird about how I was just thinking morbid thought this morning randomly, and then we hear about all this just hours later.

[laurensmomma]

Somebody needs to send the waaahhhhhmbulance over to my house because dh has a man cold. It's full one def-con 5 over here ladies. Complete with little moans ever few minutes, "do I feel warm" questions every ten minutes, laying on the couch like a sack of potatoes, and so on.

BUT HE HAS THE NERVE (and energy) TO TELL ME HE'S GOING TO HAPPY HOUR ON WEDNESDAY.



No, dude.

[charmediamsure]

I have an ultrasound tomorrow morning to check baby's position. If she is still breech my OB is going to schedule a c section because with my anterior placenta we won't be able to turn her.

While I know a c section isn't ideal because of the recovery, I'm actually pretty on board with the idea of having it scheduled. I know I sound like a fool and I will eat my words during recovery...

Omg, me too. I only have a sit and stand plus Ari hates the stroller so I know he wouldn't go for it. I miss my daily walks and how he would nap instantly.

[imimahoney]

Sigh, I'm still having so much anxiety over C and her weight. She nursed all day and only had 1 bottle and I tried to supplement after each feeding but she wouldn't take the bottles. I hope she's doing ok.

I'm thinking of just moving to bottles though. This not knowing is killing me and I hate feeling this worry. I don't know how much she's getting and I need to know. I hope the procedure goes well but either way I think we'll be doing much more bottles in the future.

[browneyedhunni85]

I'm shocked that I only gained 2 lbs since my last appt on June 12th. We just got back from vacation and ate so much crap. I was scared to step in the scale.

[TrudyCampbell]

I am feeling SO SUFFOCATED by my inlaws right now I just want to scream. We planned on going thurs - mon this weekend but I can't do it. I might just wait until Saturday and go for the BBQ and deal with July 4th traffic. They are so intense sometimes!! My FIL has texted me every day for a week and emailed twice now to remind me to pack a bike pump that he needs. I think what's really getting under my skin is that they planned this vacation for us (that we had no choice in) that's in NEW JERSEY and yet needed to be booked over a year in advance. What the hell. I know I sound like the ungrateful crazy one, but it's like pulling teeth to get my husband to take a day off for something, and then his parents tell him he's taking an entire week off and he just happily goes along with it.

GGRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

Thanks for the vent.

[lolaburns]

My threenager has become full blown. I wanted to just commit myself several times today.

He told me when I put him to bed to clean up his room. He was serious. He had a tantrum over it. :I

fadedscars I hope his wife is ok and wtf he could have started a fire.

[rxbeth]

formerlyllizzyb - I need to see an updated picture of N's hair.  Is it still luxurious?  Andrew's is falling out so bad.  Is she still a tummy time failure?  Andrew is.

[teamhayes]

My baby turns two tomorrow waaaaaahhhhhhhhhh

[devonpow]

We are watching Crocodile Dundee.

[lolaburns]

TrudyCampbell Do not forget that bike pump! No really.... I wouldn't want to deal with that on a holiday, either.

[unclejesse]

@destinationunknown you better hope thedahliharpa doesn't see this

[thedahliharpa]

Best of luck @destinationunknown!!!

[laurack]

The kids were being suspiciously quiet in the play room earlier, I went in and found this. "Shhh mummy! We're both in our tree house!"

[laurack]

A little later I was running Williams bath and he ran in happily and fell, smashing his face into the side of the bathtub. Blood running down face, again. its so upsetting, I can't save him from hurting himself

I can relate it's so stressful. When I moved to bottles it was a huge relief knowing how much he was getting. With Luke it was a slower transition and gave me ppa/ppd
Whatever you do, it will be ok. Do what is best for you and her. That's what's important

[blane12]

My BFF is pregnant!! I'm sooooo excited for her. In college, she swore she would never have kids. She sent me a text with 3 pee sticks . I'm so excited for her to experience this new chapter!

imimahoney - I'm sorry you've been stressing so much. That is what drove me nuts about breastfeeding. I never knew how much he was getting. I hope she starts gaining for you!

J and A have been super into fort making similar to this. Then they start shrieking when Declan the "baby monster" comes to destroy it, lol. Then Anna will start telling me that Declan needs a nap to try to get me to take him away.

Yeah most of the time she is crying about him ruining or taking her stuff. To be fair she is right, he does ruin all her stuff and try to take all her food from her hands ..

[spaghetticat]

TrudyCampbell, I feel you on all of it, I just wanted to say the thought of driving down on Saturday sounds like absolute hell on earth.

laurack, S can not have fun without smashing her face into the ground. She's constantly running and laughing and then falling on her face after five seconds. It's like they have no balance.

[creamsiclechica]

I got Fourth of July outfits! All is not lost.

I know nobody actually cares but me, lol, but I was UPSET.

[carawestt]

Lincoln told me he wants to get a haircut because his hair keeps getting in his face. I asked him to show me what he liked, he chose this. Lol I don't think he's ready for a haircut. I think I'm going to go get it trimmed though.
