Friday night...

[bunch]

Because 8:34 is no longer the afternoon.

I took dd1 to her dance recital practice tonight.    Apparently I was the only mom in the whole place who missed the memo about not needing to come in costume.   Oops.  That basically sums up how well I'm rocking this working mom thing.  

Anyway, so I'm waiting for dd's turn and all of the sudden they push this giant cross onto the middle of the stage.  Next thing I know, she and all the other girls are dancing around the stage each holding giant signs that say FORGIVEN.   You guys, my mouth was hanging open. Who in the hell thinks this is okay?  Even in the bible belt?   I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry.

I can't access emoticons on my phone, bunch, but holy crap! No no no.

My book club members are coming over soon. I've been drinking since 6:30 in anticipation. That's all I've got.

[glitzy07]

My H just texted me from our garage to tell me there is a live NKOTB/BSB concert on one of the MTV channels. Guess I know what I'm watching tonight.

Tomorrow morning C and I are going to The Crayola Experience at the Mall of America. I'm more excited than an adult should be about crayons.

[dcn]

I had solo bedtime tonight and at one point all three of us were crying. So that went well. I need a beer.

[preppy]

We are watching this weeks episode of The Americans. It's so good. I love this show.

I keep waiting for morning sickness to start. I live in fear.

[Saudade]

bunch, lololololol omg i would have died. that's awful/amazing and i would have sat on my ass laughing. do these kids even understand what they're dancing to?!

[starburst604]

Remember I said in the randoms earlier that I was looking forward to day drinking at the Red Sox game tomorrow?

Wellllll I just got a faint BFP on a wondfo. My H won't be home till 10:30 and L is sleeping so I can't get an FRER. I'm freaking out over here.

[glitzy07]

Which Backstreet Boy wasn't involved in the reunion? (Nsync fan, here.) They seem odd as a foursome. But man do I love NKOTB.

[mcfelix]

Ummm wtf bunch? Are these dance classes sponsored by a church?

I am waiting for DH to finish putting DS to bed (way later than he should be up) and then we will be packing for the beach. We leave tomorrow for a week! We are staying with a few other friends and the house has a pool and is a few blocks from the beach. It will be a fun week!

I can't wait to do this!! I'm hoping for the initial excitement to die down but it looks so fun!

[cincodemayo]

I'm letting DS stay up late to watch an episode of Paw Patrol. I hope I don't regret this!

I'm on my own until Sunday afternoon, so I'm kind of into lazy parenting right now.

No!  I should have known when the owner opened us with prayer and then explained that she opened this dance studio because 'God put it on her heart' that trouble was brewing.  

How did I miss that this was coming?!?




let me be honest though, I really find it totally hilarious.  I look forward to letting dd watch the video when she's 30.

[chickens987]

H and I are sucked into a show called "Border Control: Australia's front line". It's so ridiculous, I have no idea why we find it so compelling!

[raangoli]

Congratulations starburst604!

We're getting there right when it opens. My coworker went twice already and said that it's pretty huge so it doesn't seem super crowded. She said she thinks she had more fun than her 3.5 year old!

[glitzy07]

I keep getting a faint whiff of baby puke, but as far as I recall, D didn't spit up on me tonight. What has my life become?

[longtimenopost]

Got the kids down and I'm fighting off the urge to eat ice cream.

Maybe some Peaky Blinders will distract me!

I feel the same about my period. 

And we are about to do the same. Love that show.

Congrats, starburst604! You didn't do any IF treatments, right?

Thank you! No, I saw my RE on Monday and we were getting ready to start the process with a Clomid challenge next cycle, followed by IVF. But she told me to call her if I got lucky this cycle and she'll do all the early testing for me. I have an increased risk of ectopic after my last pregnancy, so that makes me a little nervous.

[teatimefor2]

OMG... So embarrassing. We put the kids to bed and both usually go right down. DH and I start to "get busy" and DS2 cries, so we stop and I go in, comfort and am out in less than two minutes, five minutes go by and we have to stop to comfort three times!

Not our finest moment.... The thrill of being a parent.

[zeewifeandmama]

Ugh having some major fam problems involving my mom. Sitting here waiting to hear from my sister...

Fx for you!

I'm putting the kids to bed a half hour late. They were playing together cutely, but I'm so ready to be done. This has felt like such a long week of solo parenting.

[water*drop]

I walked over 5 miles today while wearing DD in the toddler tula. She's small for a 4yo (31 lbs), and I didn't really feel it at all while I was wearing her, but, omg, I'm so tired now. The fact that it was hot and we were in direct sun most of the time didn't help.

Oh, FUCK NO.

ETA: I for some reason thought this was at school. I don't know why. I'm slightly less irate. Only slightly though. 

[swank]

I had two glasses of wine and a Greek yogurt bar to drown my bedtime drama sorrows. I'm still under my calorie goal, so at least I won at something today.

Eeeeeeee! We are going to be due at the same time! Congrats!

[MamaMaui24]

I bought these pouches for $3.50 EACH. WTF is wrong with me! I'm such a sucker!
