And I love ribs and drumsticks! My dad makes ribs that take 3 days and they are sooooooo good.
You have to visit us. My husband will knock your socks off. Also, he wants your dad's recipe.
I will have to ask him for the run down over Thanksgiving. I know it involves a lot of boiling,basting, grilling, smoking and other labor. But ribs in Germany sound pretty good!

Here's my UO/advice to the FTMs. Your babies do not need the toys you're going to buy them for Christmas this year. I was reading one of my letters to H from when she was maybe 13 months old ... I wrote that she loved to play with cans of refried beans and plastic cups, and that I would use that knowledge to save cash/space when the second baby came.

We're probably not buying anything big for them for Christmas. That's what grandparents are for!
Mayo is amazing. A friend of mine has a theory that everyone has what she refers to as one secret "white trash food tendency". If this is true, then Miracle Whip is most definitely mine.
American cheese is not cheese! We have a West Coast Tillamook/East Coast Cabot battle in our house to the point where we have to alternate cheeses or someone gets butthurt:) Ouiser, please come to my house and try my husband's homemade mac and cheese. your life will never be the same again.
While I don't LOVE to clean, I can't stand mess in any way. So I clean a lot:)

Whaaaaa?? I've only heard if good things about Zany Zoo until today. *shocked*
I know LO doesn't need it (especially) for Christmas but it's just part of the whole Christmas ritual. Also, I'm keeping every baby stuff in good shape for future baby #2.

For the love of God, demand toys WITH volume control.

Ou house is so small I don't want to add any more toys until I have to. I'm sure Pilar will get tons from relatives too, so I'm not going to worry to much about it.
I was thinking of starting a tradition and getting her a Madame Alexander doll every year for Christmas.

eav, I love cleaning way too much. I also lose sleep on how much I cannot clean like I used to. We can be weirdos together, lol.
I love cleaning. Love it. I am a freakshow.
I'll join your freakshow bit, because I freaking love cleaning. When DH brought home a Shark steam mop for me, I nearly died from happiness. The feeling of a freshly scrubbed bathroom and kitchen? Priceless. And I love mayo. Mayo mixed with hot sauce- talk dirty to me.

We are going to Indiana for thanksgiving, and my MIL asked if we were bringing the dog? What? of course, what is she not part of the family anymore? I got heated.
So another UO would have to be people that forget about their animals after having a baby. I am not talking about the newborn stage, because lets face it Izzy definately got the shaft. But this one girl i know just put her dog to sleep because he was going to the bathroom in the house and was getting old. The dog wasnt in pain. WTF! It was just inconvienant yes, but the vet argued with her because he didnt want to put the dog down. My eyes are tearing up right now. That poor dog. She has a nine month old, and she posted a status asking if anyone can take the dog? The dog is fine physically just needs some TLC, the next day the dog was put to sleep. She just said that it was time. Sorry this is so long but i have knots in my stomach about this dog.

That is all kinds of messed up. I cannot even imagine. How do you know this person?!?

She is my husband's old boss's wife who i became friendly with when they were still working together.

GOD in heaven, I love a clean bathroom more than anything!!
I'm LOVING all this circus hate. I can't wait to take Kai to Cirque de Soleil. And I would pay good money for a dancing Corgi circus.
Mayonnaise = pure nastiness. DH loves it.
My UO is from Laura's: I don't think it's acceptable for a dad to be clueless about babies. This isn't the 1950s. You're responsible for another creature. Do a few google searches!

Lately whenever we make tator tots, i have making a special Sauce. Mixing Mayo with ketchup. It is so delicious. At first my H was all "wtf are you doing." Now, he does it too!
