I'm going through something similar. DS had glowing reports until he moved up to this class, they have a new teacher and every day I hear more concerns about DS. Director keeps telling me it's nothing to worry about, it's normal behavior. I'm getting conflicting messages but we don't have classroom cameras so I really don't know what to do at this point.

Yes. Her last teacher was easier for me to talk to, I feel like I'm on the defense with the current teacher. We're doing our best to just stay consistent with the correcting and trying to use the same words they use at school. I make her look at my eyes when we talk about it so I feel like she's paying attention. And talking about it is little "bursts" if you will so it's not so overwhelming.

Three is way harder than 2 - I felt like I had good warning on this from ML parents but it's still a little unexpected!

I have said all along that I don't want my kid to be the asshole that other kids complain about but its tough!

In the last class, my kid was the one getting picked on. Plus when he's at home I don't have any problems so I'm kind of like ? What can I do about this?

It really is hard!

Happy birthday sewf !

H and I bought a clone a willy as a joke last week. We didn't realize it was a chocolate clone a willy.
So, We tried making it the other night and the chocolate wouldn't set, so we stuck it in the freezer. But silicone molds don't do well in the freezer.

I chipped away at this thing for 30 minutes last night like I'm carving a chocolate dick out of marble.

Then, as I got to the end, H tried to pull it out of the mold and the head broke off.

Now I have a ziploc bag of chocolate dick parts (or cockolate as H likes to call it) in the freezer.

Hold up hold up hold up, wait a minute now. Is this a clone of your H's...willy, as you say?

That's what it said on the box. It was both amusing and stressful to make.

The original product is meant to make a vibrator replica of your guy's (or A guy's) dick.

Unbeknownst to us, they had a chocolate version they offer as well.

We're pretty well set on sweets until Easter.

I had my first appointment with a nutrition coach on Saturday and started my new eating plan on Sunday. I have eaten more vegetables over the past three days than I've eaten in a month. I already feel so much better. Obviously I haven't weighed since it's only been three days, but my clothes feel so much better already. And it just feels good to have a plan, ya know?

I've totally gone "Jesus take the wheel" over it. DD put undies on one day and said she wanted to wear them. Ok, let's do this.

We're about 3 weeks in and I'm just like WHY ISN'T SHE HAPPILY SKIPPING OFF TO THE POTTY ALL THE TIME!?

I read somewhere it takes about 3-6 months for full daytime potty training to be perfected. My poor washing machine. All that pee.

Girl, amen.

I'm at work. I just went into the bathroom and it appears I only put blush on one cheek.

So there's that.

I am in the midst of planning a vacation for me, 3 kids and my mom to go to Disney and then visit my grandma in May. I am excited about it. But then I feel slightly depressed because I know when I return I am going to feel let down that I don't have anything "big" to look forward to. I'm weird and always need to focus on something in the future.

Oh god. I've changed Theo's diaper every 15-20 minutes all morning, he's been complaining about his stomach, and not eating. I'm crossing my fingers that it's not the norovirus (it seems like everyone has it around here), because omg that would be awful right now since h doesn't get home until the 4th.

Also, feel sorry for my kitties. They have checkups at 2pm today, and they are complete, professional assholes when it comes time to collect them. So I grabbed them when I could and put them in their carriers 2 hours early. Now I have to listen to the mmmmmrrrrreooooooowwwwww mmmrrrrreeoooowwwww for the next two hours. So, feel sorry for me, too. Also, I know my stupid dog is going to crap on the front seat, she always does. I hope I remember to cover it and bring some plastic bags and wipes with me. 3 animal appointments at one time doesn't sound like such a good idea anymore.

We are going on vacation in May to Destin Florida. My sister and her husband and 2 girls (a year difference in ages from my girls) are meeting us there - they live in North Carolina, we live in St. Louis.

My sister and I are having a conversation tomorrow night about how to tell my mom we are going on vacation together and not inviting her and my dad. I hate that there is this black cloud over planning this vacation because my mom will be hurt we aren't inviting her too.

But, my dad won't do anything. He literally lays on the couch all day and watches tv. That's it. He's not into our kids. And mom doesn't help with the girls unless we giver her a specific task to do with them. It's not like they will play with them at the beach so we can get a break. It would be more like we now have to plan things for our kids AND our parents.

I SO wish we had parents that were more involved with our kids. But sorry, I'm not about to use my only vacation this year (and be 30 weeks pregnant) and have that added stress. Now to prepare for the water works and guilt trip...

I have an interview for a PT job at a university. I really hope I can get it.

I've been losing weight since January 1. Its kind of stalled this week and last week and I'm super annoyed. Come on body!!!

Totally normal.  Losing weight isn't linear and you will have weeks where you may gain or stall.  The only time to be worried is if you don't lose for more than 1-2 months.  Just keep doing what you were doing!

I was late for my office hours today because I forgot to do the dishes last night and needed to wash and pack my pump pieces. SO OF COURSE I left them on the fucking kitchen table. I still have one class to go and I am SWEATING milk, omg. And I cried on and off on the way in, out of frustration, and tiredness, and overall blahness. boo

But Winter is Trumping is giving me life right now so that's fun

Oh Good Lord, she's tagging everyone. She's done three separate posts and tagged 50 people each. Gurl.

Sweet jesus, my nephew did this to fund his mission trip to the Philippines. And then SIL shared his post and tagged all the same people. Uh, nope.

Annnndddd then they did something similar to fund his trip back there to marry the girl he just met on said trip... I'm waiting for the funding cry for when they host the reception here in the states

I have some kind of weird weight loss blindness with my H. I can never tell when he's lost weight. I mean, a little, but not really. He posted today he's lost 12 pounds and it was news to me! LOL. I think it's because I'm used to seeing him up close? IDK. He's in shape so I don't know where it's coming off. I told him I don't want him losing his butt. Then he will have gone TOO FAR.

My husband lost 10 pounds and in laws made the biggest fucking deal. My sil actually said he looked gaunt and drawn, lol. My mil said his clavicles we're so prominent now! You guys, he looked exactly the same.

That's what everyone wants to hear when they've lost weight, right? "Your clavicles look amazing!"

[slcjess]

I forgot the stupid newborn screening card for our appt today, luckily my mom was with me so she ran back to my house to grab it. Then my kid peed all over the dr office mid diaper change. I need a nap.

Unless you  normally take an annual vacation with your parents, why say anything to them at all?  Just go and have a good time.

I missed the boat when The West Wing was on TV many moons ago so now I'm binge watching it on Netflix. I don't give two hoots about politics but somehow I can't get enough of this show!!!

Me too! I watched the first 4 seasons a while ago and just recently picked it back up. I have to compete with my 3 year old for tv time though so I'm only a few episodes in to season 5. 

I too care nothing about politics

I normally post on MM and MMM but want to come play over here too! DH, 5yo DD and I live in Vegas. I'm not sure what else to say about myself...
