[hotcoconuts82]

It is so dark and rainy here today. mother nature is really making getting up early HARD.

[marygracerich]

Good morning ladies!
Today is a cleaning and unpacking day. I also have to make a quick run to the store. MH doesn't have to leave for work until 1ish so I get to go to the store baby free. 😄

[bethypoo83]

Aquarium day! We're parked and waiting for DHs cousin to get here with her boys.

[amylee545]

I'm off today and tomorrow thank god. I had the weekend from HELL at work... Short staffed, crazy bitchy families, a death, patients crashing... ugh. Not fun. I'm extremely grateful for these 2 days off. Much needed.

Currently I'm working out in my basement while MH swatches N upstairs. I need this destressing time. Sometimes I really really wish I had a desk job.

[lgsdesigner]

I cannot keep my days straight. Keep forgetting what day it is! Typical post holiday weirdness.

Eli now says "I'm baby." And points to his chest. Lol

[honda13]

Back at work today. Started out crazy as usual. I'm ready to go home and go to bed.

lgsdesigner, I've been trying to remember a recipe you shared here. I made it and loved it but now I can't remember. It was for the crock pot. Chicken breast, salsa, half a lime and..... I can't remember!

so cute. N points to herself all the time when I'm calling for her. I'll be yelling "Natalie where are you?!" And I'll turn the corner and she's just sitting there pointing to herself. It's so funny and adorable

So today we found out Winter is getting a sister this July!

I'm excited for another girl

H said "third times the charm for a boy" but really he's happy to have another girl too.

@amyless545 sorry for the tough weekend at work. Something must be in the air. We had a rough few days, topped off by a terrible delivery last night, and just a few patients with crazy complications. Here's praying tonight things settle in and we avoid all shit shows. I would love a nice easy normal family to come in and have a beautiful magical delivery.

[flyinghorses6]

Congratulations linny12 what great news!!! And how fun! Sisters!

My child found a milk cup in the living room from last night and had a massive meltdown when DH wouldn't let her drink it. New milk was not the same. We fly home tomorrow. I am ready.

Hi ladies it's snowing here and dh took the jeep and didn't take out the car seat so we'll be staying home today.

My niece called me in a panic saying she couldn't get a hold of her mom and the house was filled with smoke and that the fire dept. were on the way. Apparently my sister put chicken on the stove before she left for work and all the water boiled out. She thought she put it on low but it was on high! All the neighbors above her and the hallways were all smoked out. I can't believe she did that shit. I'm so glad her 3 kids are ok she just about gave me a heart attack.

Chicken breast
Jar of chunky salsa
Cook on low 8 hours.
Shred chicken and serve atop rice.
Sprinkle with shredded cheddar and green scallions and fresh lime.

Is that the one?

[lgsdesigner]

I can't stand milk so am trying out vanilla almond milk. Not too bad! Of course my cereal is masking most the taste but still good.

[lgsdesigner]

linny12 - Yay sisters! Congrats!

In the last couple of weeks we've had 3 teachers at work announce they're pregnant.

It gives me the SMALLEST amount of baby fever. I loved being pregnant. I miss that part.

But DNW another anytime soon.

I don't want another baby ever, but every time I see a squish my uterus throbs. Lol

[lgsdesigner]

So this is the $10 brand new Ralph Lauren gown I wore on NYE. I really loved it! Very comfortable too. DH was smitten.

P.S.
Excuse the face. I heard the door bell ring as I snapped it and it threw me off. Ha!

[hotcoconuts82]

Dd got this barbie for christmas. You can dye her hair. There is like a laundry list of tthins the dye CANNOT touch. Is it wrong of me to hide it? Is it wrong that I am going to buy the gift giver's kid a messy toy for his bday?

[robotpcr]

So scary jvega1. Glad everyone is ok.

I found a milk cup in her toys the other day. Usually I'm so good at making sure to get them but I missed this one! I didn't even open it. Into the trash it went.

I am too. But things are a bit crazy at my parent's house.

[marygracerich]

I just put G's princess castle together. There is little people, books and various other toys everywhere. I need more bins for storage.

Me too, it was scary to hear the panic in her voice. Apparently her 11 year old brother woke her up and by that time neighbors were pounding on the door. I'm just glad everyone is ok.

[marygracerich]

G doesn't say too many individual words. She says cat, milk, momma/Mommie and dada/daddy. She will however say short sentences. Today she very clearly said "mama I'm done" when she finished her lunch. She is such an odd kid.

So H has a black winter hat that he wears all the time.

It's so very awkward when we are walking through the store without him and C called every man in a black winter hat 'Dada!'

Sorry to laugh because I am sure it is definitely awkward but that is kind of funny.

[marygracerich]

I just realized, today makes 7 years with MH. We have known each other since high school but only started dating in 2010.

Hahaha. M calls the dad's of all her little friends "daddy". It was awkward at the Christmas party we went to with all of them.

Crazy.
I drink milk like it's my means of survival. I usually drink a gallon alone in a few days.

C got that from me. She constantly wants milk. We drink a lot of milk in my house.

Yeah. My milk hate stems from childhood when I was forced to drink it even if it was warm and set out for hours on end. It was the 80's. Harsher child punishments! Lol

We vacationed with my cousin and his family this summer at their lake house. The pump for the shower heater broke so H, my cousin, and his 4 year old daughter went to the hardware store.

The 4 year old is really bad with names and calls H "other daddy." The entire time they were there she kept asking " Dad, could other daddy fix that?" "Dad, does other daddy know what that is?"

H and my cousin said they must have looked like the oddest couple that little town had ever seen!
