Sooooo this whole time I was under the assumption that LO was turning 15 weeks today. Apparently he's actually 17 weeks old. MOTY.

Why's everyone gotta hate on the veggie bacon? It tastes very similar

This has always sort of baffled me about vegetarians. Like, all veggie chicken nuggets. What's the point? Or meatless meatballs? If there is no meat, it is NOT a meatball. I don't get it.

Well I personally hate the meat balls. But I didn't like real meat balls either. I haven't eaten meat since I was young because it really freaked me out. It still does. The idea of eating an animal seems so gross to me. I know I'm very alone in that feeling, my DH and all my family eats meat, but even though they don't understand they don't try and convince me to eat it. Best way I could compare it is how people are freaked out about eating cats, dogs, rats, whatever isn't the norm, that's how I feel about eating any animals.

I was planning to get shit done while baby was napping and DH was out with the toddler. But I forgot to turn the swing on...so that was a very short nap.

Oh I totally get why someone would want to be a vegetarian, I just don't understand the appeal of things like a meatless meatball. I'm probably not even making sense because I eat meat.

I stopped my short stint of vegetarianism because I tried to use "ground beef" in a Hamburger Helper. So gross!

Also - I think I have developed some sort of hand cramp from my manual pump.

DS has been fighting naps all day. He's also mastered the fake cry. I pop his pacifier in and he's happy until I walk away 2 steps and then he "cries" for me to put it back in.

Why the fuck do I wait until the last minute to complete a project for my organizational management class?! Why why why.

Is this a class you are teaching or taking? Good luck, I never learned to study early in college, did a lot of cramming, I'm glad I don't take my job home with me.

I'm taking it. I wish I was teaching it because that would mean I already have my degree. Damn. hehe.

Well maybe after this class you might be able to manage your organizing better see what a did there?

DD has influnza A. Damn you FluMist! Have to give DS prophylactic Tamiflu since he was not immunized of course. Fuck all. Not a great weekend. My hands are raw from washing already.

If anyone wants a good red wine recommendation, I've recently found Milestone 2012 California Red Blend. Delicious! (And only about $12.)

[mrssarahrenee]

Good for you going back to school @pnwlover! Good luck on your project!

slsl509 healing vibes for DD and hope the rest of you stay healthy.

Sounds like a decent weekend for most. I'm on hour 48 of off and on nausea and vomiting. I had a fever yesterday so I am assuming stomach bug. But I am totally planning on POAS tomorrow just in case. :/

[pnwlover12]

Since they are always changing the love tits around, they should be able to add in a second option for dislike. It can be "That sucks" or "I HATE this".

Hope you feel better and may the force be with you! I POAS this AM and thank goodness for a negative (right now) but even with the mini-pill it was a wake up call that we aren't ready for #2, proceed with caution!

DD didn't want to nap in her crib today. So she's now on me asleep in the ring sling. I'll take it if it gives me a 30 minute reprieve.

Noah napped terribly today. I'm hoping he'll sleep better tonight, but typically bad naps = bad night sleep.

So with all this POAS talk... should I be POAS like once a month until I get my first PP period? I'm taking the mini pill, but gotta be honest I've missed a couple here and there. After not taking BC for so long it's hard to remember!

Oh mah bad I misunderstood. I think because it gives me more meal & snack options and has protein n stuff. Like if I want a snack I can pop in a veggie corn dog or little buffalo wings and it's delicious.

Really? What was the brand? I love morning star crumbles in hamburger helper or tacos! Even my DH likes it and he eats meat.

Kids and I did a lot of this:  and then the kids did a lot of this:

Then DH got home and was all:


While I: so of course:

Then:  and now: 



So. I'm going to be lost again in the morning. Hope everyone has a restful night and the sick babies are on the mend!



Goodnight, notches.

I poas last week. I'm on the full on bc that makes my period stop. Just didn't think it would work like that again so soon. I've already finished 3 packs now working on my 4th. Bought an extra test for future piece of mind.
