I put LO in her ill-proportioned MIL sweater. Did I forget to mention the matching hat? I think she looks like baby Elton John. Her sunglasses are in the car but they would really complete the look.
Previously I had defended the knitted sweater... but barf! It has a nice 80's shape to it? If MIL really likes to knit and make things for C, why don't you give her a pattern to make? Just say that your friend showed you this adorable sweater/hat/etc and was wondering if she could make it? then it's a win/win
I have some cute patterns I could send you, or you could look on Ravelry.
So LO was up, and is down again. I tried to get a picture, but the birthday girl wasn't particularly cooperative. Photographic evidence of this day will be mine. And then all of yours, because AW.
megash113 I talked about the sweater the other day in Randoms. It is as wide as my torso and when buttoned up, the neck opening is tennis ball sized. It's...awkward? But made with love. Or something. I put her in a normal outfit to go to school today. Gah I should have brought it with me today for baby tessymessy to try on!
LOL I never told DH I put a dress on J just to see if he would make a cute girl. He did. I would have totally put the sweater on him today. I cosign to the F14 traveling sweater. It needs its own hashtag and we can follow it on IG. @elf828 would it somehow get back to your MiL? #f14sweater #travelingpinksweater
Also I am super jealous of the Elfssy lunch. See what I did there? I hope karlamo never reads about the people in the attic or basement. In our old house she had us screw the bulkhead door shut because she was afraid people would come into our basement. Keep in mind we had the scariest dungeony basement ever. It had a dirt floor. Nobody would choose to live there.
I'm going to be flate to work because I left my pump parts at home and had to go back to get them. It gave me 20 mins more with R so that was special. My trains home have been so late because of the snow that I haven't seen R awake in 2 days.
And although I have a poof on my head, you all have convinced me not to go to supercuts.
Ok one more thing cause I'm just an AW in the randoms as usual. We've wanted to get R a movie poster and we found the perfect one. Get ready for waterworks.
I thought you were joking about the tears, obviously. And then I read the poster... and yes, I did tear up.
We should all have picked baby names with an inspirational poster.This is the only one I can find for my LO (and the spelling is wrong)
katybriggs - I keep checking A's picture. He's getting lots of votes! I even helped my mom vote (she just got facebook) and she thinks he's adorable too!
katybriggs - I'm not friends with you on facebook, but I am friends with @thatgolfbitch. I voted for A, would it be ok of I shared it on my wall? I just didn't want to be a super creep. Ha.
Remember when I talked about the crazy expensive wrap conversion Tulas? This one is on a swap page now. OMG. Want. Probably like $800 or something, and only a half conversion. I have a sliiiight obsession with Girasol wraps.

laur. I kinda love that sweater. Mil gave us a similar one that h had actually worn. I was bummed that seasonally it didn't work out (surprising a oct baby in NJ and a feb baby in tx had different seasonal needs.)
mamosey I love Rudy! Especially becaus they filmed while my sister was at ND.
All this Wegmans talk makes me miss it. I work near Atlantic City now but used to work in Mt. Laurel until last year. I miss my extended lunches of Chinese food bar followed by aimlessly wandering around Joann Fabrics. Jealous of all those with lunch outings today. I'm getting delicious delicious Thai tomorrow and I'm so excited!! If any of you ladies want a great place to get some kick ass pad Thai in south jersey, try Rama Thai in EHT.
The kid woke up with a raspy cough today. It's her first cough ever, which is surprising considering she will be a year. It's these times when the baybeh is sick that I really appreciate the invention of the nose Frieda.
Yesterday I woke up with a nasty cold out of the blue. I took a new brand of cold pill, whined to DH and he came home at lunch. That magic pill completely stopped my runny nose/sneezing and knocked me out for a three hour nap. And I feel fine today, too. I'm kind of weirded out by it, but whatever I guess! I've never had an 8hr cold before.
We are not of the same mind, but I do not usually engage him with his crazy posts. This time... I couldn't just say nothing... this picture is just wrong...

Omg, I love this. Hilarious. I have a relative who posts similar things and it's a daily struggle to bite my tongue.
I had a postit going, but E keeps taking away my pens and the paper, so... Yeah. caer was JT Maria? I'm glad yesterday went smoothly, butt (swidt?) I'm sorry you have to go again in a while. paulheath I would love to meet up with you! It'll probably be a while before we head back to Halifax, because it's crazy expensive to fly everyone over, but I will let you know next time we are there! @elf828 C looks like a giant pink Velcro baby. It's fantastic! And yes, we do have giraffe print babylegs:) tenniscourt good luck to you and your H today!
I was up until one finishing the quilting on E the first's quilt and starting on the binding. I'm ftired this morning. Today kids have school, I need to start baking 3's birthday cake, finish his binding, work on my niece's project with her, fold laundry, and catch up on dishes. If anyone has an extra pair of hands, I'll take em. I'll try to do a better job of keeping up with Randoms today though. I missed a lot yesterday.

DD took almost 90 minutes to go to sleep last night. But, she slept all night! I was thinking about going in to my second job (with DD) today, but I think I will wait until tomorrow when I'm LO-free. I have some things I can do from home, so I'll do that instead. I had to separate toys today. DD has a ball popper, and a monkey that both use balls. For her birthday, she got a shape sorter. She keeps getting the shapes stuck in the ball popper. Hopefully by having them separate, she won't break the popper!
I can't keep up today, but am LOLing at the sweater and totally think we need to pass it around. Also totes jelly of the lunch date @elf828 and tessymessy. I've never met a F14er IRL :-(
Rettaboo my LO has that piano and loves it! She tries to climb it constantly though lol.
caer - sorry you're not done but I hope your recovery is quick!
I'm currently stressing out about LO1 and what to do for school (k) next year. Me/H have been around a hundred different paths and while we have time, sort of, we've talked about moving so not really a lot of time if that's the route we go down. Blah. Also, I'm so irritated with his dentist office and I'm reasonably sure they are just doing shit to make money off his mouth (that sounds weird). It's been hell at work this week too. I'm tired and cannot believe next week is LO2s bday/bday party. So not ready.
