I think I might have a gluten and/or dairy intolerance! This is a confesh because I always kinda privately side-eye people who are really strict about that. But MY GODDANG BELLY HURTS ALL THE TIME!

Same here. I know I have some kind of intolerance, but I like food too much and have been living with stomach aches for 23 years. I dont want to give up certain foods! *pouts*

DD's been teething like crazy with her molars the last week or so. One molar is fully through. Another just popped through yesterday. I've been giving DD a dose of Motrin right before she goes to sleep every single night this week. I guess thats my confesh. I feel guilty, for medicating BEFORE she wakes up in the middle of the night crying.
I've been trying to find a non creepy way to suggest a post of all of us donning The Suit. I think it would make a lot of people feel good. Including myself. But I don't want it to come off as "show me a swim suit pic ::heavy breathing::"

Now that I've been working on a budget for our family, I'm wishing we had combined finances. Now that I have to watch/track every penny I spend, I wish DH would do the same. But, that's not the way we set up our family. It just makes me grumpy that he's going to benefit from MY diligence.

rubber pants a pre-emptive strike against teething pain is nothing to feel guilty about!
Definitely this! Whenever I've had something painful, they always tell me to stay on top of it and not let the pain start. I always give her Motrin before bed when she's teething.
I am irrationally mad that I have gained 2.5 pounds in like the last two weeks and I have no idea why. The only two reasons I can think of is my period is coming or my body is adjusting to not pumping/bfeeding as much. I am so mad because I was happy but the stupid scale keeps going up every day.

Laney has had Motrin almost every night before bed for weeks now.
She was really sick for a while and these molars are a bitch! Don't feel bad!

Motherfucking PB ate my motherfucking reply. Short: My confession then is that I think it's very weird when married couples don't have a joint account. I am the breadwinner in my family (although DH's condom machines do alright), but we just have one account and it's all our money. Not just mine or his.
Another confession: I am working from home today and am having a glass of wine. And I'm obviously not getting much work done anymore.

We do have "joint" savings in that it has our names on it. But only money that I earn goes into it. Which was fine because I thought I made more! But now he works for cash and though my gross income is double what his is, my net is the same as his take-home. So it's pissing me off.
I want to just yell and be mad about it all the time, but we are just starting to figure out this money and "you don't get to have everything you want" thing, so I'm letting it evolve. For example, he's selling his Jeep WHICH HE LOVES because the payment/gas doesn't make sense.

The other night Dylan fell out of his bed. I heard the thump and got out of bed but there was no crying. I got to his room and he was face down on the floor asleep. I laughed and laughed. He even has a little bump on his chin but that didn't stop him from sleeping. I left him there.
Last weekend we out for breakfast. I was asking Dylan to tell me certain family members full names. We got to my mom and he says gramma. I say yes but what is her real name. He doesn't know so I say Her first and middle name and Stein (Her last name) he cackles out loud and says, "yeah mommy just like daddy says FUCKENSTEIN!!!!!" People in the diner has big wide eyes while E and I had tears from all the laughter. Bad mommy and daddy!
I think it's hilarious when kids curse every now and again.
Tyler rolled off his cot the other day at daycare and never woke up. Th let him sleep on the floor. I was fine with it. Why wake them up?
I also never really got the married couple/seperate finances thing.
Especially in a situation where one person earns the most money, then the other person if they can't afford things they have to ask their spouse for money?! I guess I don't really get it, it probably works great for some people though.
just seems like more work, I'm lazy.
We have one account that both our paychecks go into. We both try not to spend money and we discuss purchases, to some degree. I mean I don't call him and tell him I'm thinking about buy two sandwiches for lunch instead of one.
I'm glad when it rains or is icky out in the afternoon so I don't have to take the kids outside. It's fucking boring outside!
Lydia gets bored outside too. I will take out some toys and two minutes later "I want to do something else". I have to hold Calista or sit right next to her because she freaks out and will not go on the grass.
The best luck I have had with entertaining Lydia is full up buckets of water and she dumps them into each other.

no!
now that she has discovered "outside" and the weather isn't terrible anymore she LOVES it. She gets my shoes and brings them to me. She brings me her jacket. She bangs on the door.
She can spend ages pottering about the back garden playing in dirt, rolling around with the dog, playing with her sand table. It's pretty sweet.
I do only like bringing her in the back garden because it is fenced in. Out front, she just runs off to the next door neighbors then goes around back and starts playing with their kids toys. So then I have to remove her and carry her back inside kicking and screaming. Oh ,joy
we have seperate finances but it is mostly bc I love to save and budget and if MH had a nickle he would spend a quarter. So if we combined we would be broke so now he is just broke. He does benefit from my saving and it makes me bitter but I would rather be bitter than no savings. Buy yeah I feel your pain I wish I wasn't the only one who put the effort in to cut corners and try to budget.

Both kids love being outside. I don't. I never really have and I get so bored because I have to watch them all the time so they don't go in the road or eat dog poop but watching them is really dull.

My FFFC is that I think The Suit looks best on the bigger mamas. It's cute on you thin ladies but the curvier mamas are rocking that shit. They give it a sexy, retro feel and I'm digging it

I agree. This is why I haven't bought the suit, because I am a "banana", I have no curves.
I do plan to buy a new swimsuit but I have been slacking on looking. All my old bikinis are quite skimpy and I don't feel comfortable in them now. Also, I realize now how bad I was being: taunting men with my luscious belly button all those years. IT'S AN INNIE! Nothing hotter and more lust inducing than an innie, right.
I'm looking into a burkini, for the good of all mankind.

I would love to buy the suit, but we are on a spending freeze and it'll help my cause for no DH melt down for Hershey. We're not supposed to make any unneeded purchases until our vacation in Iceland in July.

I agree for the most part. I can understand if it's a convenient way to save/budget. For example, if I ever get a job, DH and I are going to still try to live off one salary and pay down debt/save for a house with the other. Also, my MIL has "her" spending money because it's what she did extra work for (it's how she's able to spend an insane amount of money on her kids and grandkids). My FIL doesn't complain about how much she spends because it's what she worked for.
I also never really got the married couple/seperate finances thing.

for us it's different because we also split the bills we pay. i make the most, so i am responsible for more bills and savings. it ends up so we have an equal amount of spending money. but now that i'm really focusing on saving, i have ZERO spending money.

I didn't buy the suit because I didn't like how it fit on my legs and ass. I did buy a strapless polka dot one and feel pretty damn sexy in it. Maybe even more than I ever did in a bikini.
I got an hour and a half sleep last night because I can't stop worrying about XH. No one has heard from him in almost 3 weeks. I know he's not my problem anymore but I'm still worried.
I just dumped puffs on the bed so Lexi would leave me alone.
@therealmc Eli did that the other day and I laughed my ass off at him snoring while on the floor. Who falls the bed and doesn't wake up besides drunk people? The other story about D is hilarious!
