Packing and cleaning before our flight up to DC this evening.
I looove the summer. Its been almost 90 this week so DS got to for his first swim in the pool
Also I watched the first half of the Dr Phil with the lady who stole the pictures of someone elses kids for 4 years, bish crazzzzzzy. Straight up denial x1000

Well this is a fun new development.
BH is now tall enough to reach the oven knobs. Know how I know? Because while I was washing his high chair tray, he was standing beside me trying to turn them on.

I think A May have slept better last night. I can't tell for sure because I'm so exhausted. He was back in a zippy so maybe that helped him not try to claw his eyes out. I was finally able to get a little free time yesterday to finish sewing my 'fake' zippadee zip and although it's not too pretty ( I'm a pot holder and pillowcase kind of girl) it functions.
ashbash, wait someone said they knew this Dr. Phil woman right? Like it was a co-worker whose pics got stolen? FFTC I record Dr. Phil errrday. Guilty pleasure. But I'm a few episodes behind and I can't wait to catch up and see this one!

I don't have that problem but it is starting to worry me that LO is already only 7 lbs less than his sister. Last week when they were eating chicken nuggets, LO had 6 and DD only had 2, and that was after LO already had his "dinner".
ashbashveggiemomadymoiselle @babybean9 I do not know the lady, but some of my co-workers know her very well and used to work with her. She's an OB nurse at a local hospital. I won't get to watch today's episode until later this evening. I just don't understand how a person can deny doing it when there are pictures hanging up all over her home of these twin girls! Craziness!
My Grandmother "G" had 2 children, my dad (D) and aunt (A). G was a nurse.
G also had a sister, "C." C was also a nurse. At the time of this story, C had no children (that's another story all together).
I don't remember if they worked at different hospitals, or just different shifts, or whatever, but at some point in time, some of G's coworkers saw pictures of D and A and asked G why she carried pictures of her sisters children. Turns out C had been parading around pictures of my dad and aunt and telling everyone they were her children for years.
Every time you guys talk about this story I think, yup crazy is out there. But the fact this woman is also a nurse? It's too eerily similar.

I think my kid is trying to join the one nap club. He's been doing it in day care ever since he moved to Infant B, but talking to my mom a little bit ago, she said he would only go down for one nap for her from 11-1, and my MIL got him to do a morning nap, but then his afternoon nap was less than 1/2 hour. In some ways I'm excited, it'll be easier to get out and do errands, etc. if he just has one solid mid-day nap instead of two, so I'm hoping it works out, plus it would be great timing since we're going on vacation in just over a week - it would be awesome to have only one period where we're confined to our room. But then... it's one step further from my baby being a baby
I spent way to much money at lululemon. Worth every fucking penny.
See, this is why I just started having it automatically record. If the episode seems boring after I watch the intro? Delete. But at least I've got it all.
Some of my favorites are the catfish ones. Those poor old women who think they've found the love of their lives and then Dr. Phil just comes and craps all over it, squishing their dreams. I'm so sick, but I love it.
billyhorrible holy craziness. Where is C now and what is her relationship with your family today?
My Grandmother "G" had 2 children, my dad (D) and aunt (A). G was a nurse.

I want to clarify that the woman whose photo's were stolen is the OB nurse. I have no clue what the crazy lady does.
And that is very creepy billyhorrible. I'm sure this story does hit close to home.
When the Hubs knows I just deposited a large check then tells me to pick up "a bottle of wine" but fails to give me any direction whatsoever as to what he wants.
Hi! We made a city trip this morning and met up with MIL who was also in running some errands so just trying to settle back in at home.
In a true genius move, I made a too tight turn leaving an underground parkade today and scraped and dented the side of my precious van in. Grr. I worked auto body long enough to know it looks like shit, but it's just body work and we have insurance to fix it so it will be fine, but I just feel dumb doing it. I can't even blame the kids, they were quiet lol. (DS laughed when the van bumped around and I yelled SHIT! So, we'll see what he learned from that experience)
In other news, after over a whole month of no new teeth, DD's sleep is back to bad and I see the dark spots on her bottom canines now. We could really be down to just her 2 year molars left by her 1st birthday...!!

veggiemo, I didn't even know she existed until after my dad died, so we've obviously never had any interactions with her. I think my grandmother probably cut ties for good after the craziness of C's "pregnancies."
I think my aunt tried to have a relationship with C's daughter at some point, I know my cousin had met her. But that petered out for some reason or another.
I think A May have slept better last night. I can't tell for sure because I'm so exhausted. He was back in a zippy so maybe that helped him not try to claw his eyes out. I was finally able to get a little free time yesterday to finish sewing my 'fake' zippadee zip and although it's not too pretty ( I'm a pot holder and pillowcase kind of girl) it functions.
I'm working on a homemade ZZ too. I made the pattern and washed the fabric, but still need to cut out the pieces and sew it together.
I think I'll make a pattern next time. I just kind of free formed this one to see if I could do it. We needed a summer fabric one. It turned out okay. It looks like a ZZ its just got some ugly stitching around the zipper.

S/o Zippies, there's a 24 hour mystery sale for Friday the 13th if anyone is waiting for a deal. They choose the print to send, and it's $23.95 (the cheapest I've ever seen them). I've always gotten our Zippies from mystery sales.
O has still got a goddamn fever & is still sick, no let-up. It's been 2 weeks now. Tell me, anyone whose LO has been on amoxycillin, did you find it gave them gastric issues? Did they lose their appetite?
I'm losing my mind, he stopped eating with the ear infection but the day after we started ABX he started having problems with taking formula. Today he's had vitually no milk (maybe 5oz?) & is refusing water even. I'm freaking the fuck out. Drs again tomorrow by the looks of it.
BH wasn't much of an eater on amoxycillin, butI don't know if it was the antibiotics or because he didn't feel well. He nursed/drank fine, even with the ear infection.
Can you get him to drink from a spoon or cup? At this point, I wouldn't be hyper concerned about a low volume day, but it might make you feel better to get something into him.
I'm sorry things are so rough right now. It's hard enough to go back to work, and it's hard having a sick baby, but having the sickness right off the back makes you question everything.
tiffbot don't read this if you haven't watched yet. Spoilers.
I am so upset! I think more so because Tim threw it?!? Wtf Tim! Cass would never have done that. She's probably so pissed at him lol basically the jury didn't want to vote for either of them heh?
Looking forward to the post show gossip at this point.
I'm off to bed though I will read your thoughts tmrw barely made it through writing this
I saw the tags and was too afraid to check because we just finished it now!!! I thought the same thing that Cass wouldn't have quit. But hilarious that the jury was completely back at step 1 when they saw Tim was evicted.
