I got another baby shower invite yesterday. This time it's my SIL, I hardly ever see/talk to my brother, plus he is in prison for awhile this time. He kept getting out on bail, committing a crime, and getting caught. I'm sure she was in on it too. She also wants a diaper raffle and book instead of a card. Not going!

My H just received an invite for a diaper party for a dad to be after I already went to the shower. A) who knows if your kid is going to have a sensitive ass and B) if you want diapers, register for them!

My solution for the diaper raffle was to make a cake with all the leftover ones in a too-small size from my DD. Sold.

Tldr; I feel your pain.

Diaper parties are the norm here so I'm used to it. i didn't have to buy diapers the first month and then after that we had all different sizes

How did your ex take it?

He's good. He has been respectful of my relationship, but it's very evident that he's not quite comfortable with it being thrown in his face all the time (not that I do that purposefully, but you know), so I think he knows this will be better. I didn't just up and leave, this has been in the works for at least a month now. 

Glad he is being good about it

AF was supposed to come today but it's been a no show so far. I POAS and it was negative. My cycle seems to be way longer this month, not sure how this will effect TTC.

[Sparkly]

1) it is way too ducking hot in Maine right now.

2) it's my birthday tomorrow. I might get a little drunk tonight.

Hai.

Happy early birthday Sparkly!

I'm not mad it happened (if he was bit) because they're (young) toddlers but i would like to know about it before finding the marks on him

They don't always see it. Kids are always crying anyway and unless there is an obvious mark (they don't show up right away often) or they directly witness it or the kid can talk and say what happened, it can definitely get missed.

Agreed. DS got bit once when wearing long sleeves and no one was the wiser. I kind of expect it will happen occasionally and am just relieved DS hasn't bitten anyone himself yet

My sweet potatoes are moldy. I just bought them on Sunday. Wtf? There goes dinner.

[jbm]

I'm starting to think DD is just dramatic AF. Like 10 minutes of death like wailing and thrashing and then all of a sudden...nursing like nothing ever happened and passes out.

I get it, you were tired.

Ughhhhhhhhh fucking current events are really just trying crush my soul.

DH is traveling to Europe for work on Monday and I legit could not be more anxious.

Oh god, I'm sorry. How long will he be away?

Her temperament is the literal opposite of her brothers. I'm so nervous.

This is my biggest fear and a big reason I haven't sent my DD to DC. burn it down.

Shit happens any time small children are around each other. ::stage whispers:: biting can happen at home among siblings, at the library or any other play group type scenario. My son went through a biting phase when he was younger - main target was his big sister. He was so fucking fast that I never actually SAW him bite her - only her crying & the awful marks were the evidence.

Daycare has been a wonderful experience for both of my kids (now 5 and 3) and you just need to be realistic about what can happen with a group of toddlers - bites happen. They'll spread germs, too. I'd fear the mothereffing stomach bug more than a bite.

I was one handedly typing something similar. So +1 and thank you.

DH is late coming home and I am tired of being touched today. I also can't find DS2s sippy. It had milk in it. Sigh.

In the play kitchen or another toy with a drawer or cubby?
Under the couch?
I found one with milk in it under my changing table. Right on the heating vent. Hork.

[shemarie82]

We are watching the tribute to Pat Summitt and it is giving me some major feels. I hate basketball, but what a great coach!

[shemarie82]

M is the current biter at daycare. The other day he knocked over a baby then bit her on the leg twice.

[librarychica]

DD2 is a biter. Her main target is her big sister who, thankfully, handles it rather gracefully for a 4.5YO and doesn't bite/hit back. Obvs we do the usual anti-biting stuff but she gets frustrated and doesn't talk so it happens.

She starts daycare in a few weeks. I'm a little nervous that she will chomp all the other little toddlers. I expect they (and their parents) won't be as understanding as her sister. *gulp*

[Sparkly]

Red wine, red roosters, or rose? I finished my open white.

[stampingqueen]

Poof

at a concert. Fun?

Rosè

[stampingqueen]

I also made the mistake of wearing white. And now I'm soaked. Impromptu wet t shirt contest!

Pizza ordered. I'm irritated my dinner was ruined. Pizza means I can't have a cupcake. Suck.

[erinshelley21]

My kid finally went to sleep. Now to quickly straighten the house for the cleaning lady tomorrow. She blue balled us Monday morning and cancelled about 15 minutes before she was supposed to get here. My house has become a war zone since then.

[mrsbutt]

I'm having a hard time understanding the world I'm raising DD in. I'm scared we've failed our children.

[mrsbutt]

Also, I dropped a glass of wine at dinner, shattered it all over our dinner and especially splashed DD.

Everything had to be thrown out due to shards.

I'm next level clumsy.

[Deleted]

Can I AW my kid for a minute? Pdq.

Poof

i was worried this said sharts.

I ate leftover spaghetti squash and chicken sausage. This pleases me.

H's mouth dropped open when I told him how much one month of these protein shakes cost.

He was not impressed when I justified it by saying I usually spent more per month on takeout breakfast and takeout lunch.
