Anyone elses kid like to eat the freshly cleaned laundry? Mine does.

He's so weird.

E doesn't discriminate between clean vs dirty. She chews on her own clothes when I'm changing her to something else.

I really want cup ramen. I haven't had any in forever but now it sounds like the only appetizing thing in the world.

I love ramen in all forms. I usually add my own veggies and a hard boiled egg. Perfection!

It's the centennial anniversary of the city a few blocks south of us, so we walked the block party today. A is trying to take a nap now. No plans tonight, just relaxing and watching football.

You're doing nap time and mine are getting ready for bed! Lol

@janetheconquerer, my dad is stable after a blood transfusion but he's still in the hospital. How is your MIL?

[ars093s]

@janetheconquerer, still 3.5 hours until bedtime here!

They found a sac of blood on her ovary. It's been there for years they think and it's finally big enough to bother her. They gave a go specialist looking at her to rule other things out. They hope it drains by itself if not they will surgically remove.

5 minutes here...and you can bet your ass I'm counting!!! Lol

[ars093s]

amberlie, do you love your new hairdo? Pics!

I need to do something with mine, but am uninspired at the moment.

[amberlie]

ars093s I'm still at the salon! It's about to get cut so I'll take pictures of it later. It's damaged from bleaching the red out so I'm nervous about how much she'll cut

[th3stryck3r]

shellyr, glad your dad is stable. I hope you get more good news soon.

@janetheconquerer, I hope your mil is able to avoid surgery.

amberlie, can't wait to see pics of your new 'do!

I'm feeling pretty accomplished today. Did 100 laps in the pool, then an art and swim class with Poppy, went to the farmers market, went through Poppy's clothes and made a bag of donate, and a box for storage, brought bag and box to donation site and storage unit, and went for a nine mile run. Going to enjoy a late dinner of veggie tamales, guacamole and a margarita now.

We went on a hike this afternoon with my brother and sister. I slipped on a rock and fell. It didn't hurt at all but between the impact and my family laughing at me, I sort of peed my pants. WTF. That hasn't really been happening to me but I guess now I pee my pants ;(

[tmclawchick]

Had a BLAST today at the MI renaissance festival. DH and DS played games and had so much fun we went with friends and it was nice to have a fun day out, especially after DH had such crazy hours the past few months. Totally needed a day like today

DD and DH are already passed out haha. Waiting on DS to get to bed and then I'll probably do the same...so much walking today, I'm beat!

[ampaints]

It's been a nice day. Work wasn't bad this morning and we had fun at our friends house. I know the Tennessee game was in and the Auburn game had started when we left. I have no idea who they played out who won anything. That's a reasonable amount of football for me.

M had a blast! Everyone took turns playing with him and he did really good about not crying when I wasn't holding him. He whoso chowed down on his dinner! We also came home with another bag of clothes in the size he's wearing and a container of toys which will mostly be sent to my dad's.

Now M is sleeping and I'm about to crochet.

[packmomma]

shellyr liking for consideration and because you gave me a giggle. Thanks.
Also, I sneezed the other day and H couldn't help but laugh when I had to go change my pants. so I guess I do that too .

[packmomma]

ampaints how's the crochet coming along?

[packmomma]

shellyr I'm so glad your dad is stable. Still keeping you guys in my thoughts. Fx you get some good news.

[packmomma]

@janetheconquerer I hope it resolves on its own. Very cute pictures.

[noname]

Every time I read a post about someone peeing their pants I immediately do a ton of kegels. That's about the only time I remember.

[packmomma]

So today was rough but ended on a high note (we watched Deadpool and it was hilarious). W was nursing weird (read barely) so I defrosted some of my frozen stash to give to him in a straw cup thinking he'd ingest a few extra calories that way. Turns out my milk has high lipase and now tastes soapy. All of it. I tried pumping fresh milk to mix in with it and got less than half an oz in 30 min. Sooo that sucks. Andplusalso my supply has dipped for some reason and my nipples are super sore (sorry tmi). I'm thinking it's because W basically nursed all last night but it has made our nursing moments a shit show today. I'm glad H and I got to hang out and laugh though and thankfully he's taking the monitor so I can pass out (fx).
Tl :dr my frozen milk stash is worthless. My supply has dropped and the baby is annoyed. Deadpool was hilarious.

So instead of crocheting M woke up screaming. I Gabe him Motrin and we rocked for a while while it had time to kick in. I'm now waiting to see if he's going to go back to sleep, or if we're going to end up co-sleeping in the guest room.

The blanket hasn't gotten terribly far; but enough that I can tell I love the shape.

[shellyr]

packmomma, the supply issue and the frozen stash issue sucks. How much do you have stored? Hopefully tomorrow is a better nursing day.

[amberlie]

I'm sorry you're dealing with milk issues packmomma. Mine is high lipase too - E wouldn't take any of it while I was working. I had to leave work at lunch to nurse her. And I understand supply decrease too.. mine has gone to basically nothing the more pregnant I've gotten and nursing goes back and forth from unpleasant to painful. I'm happy you enjoyed the movie though!

[amberlie]

I feel nauseous and my back/tailbone hurt after sitting in the salon chair for 5 hours. I haven't taken any pictures because I left with a hair mask on... it is badly damaged from bleaching the red out twice. And it's still kind of pink. It's in a braid now & hopefully looks okay when it dries.

I hope so. I only have about 20 oz frozen (I just pumped to replace a feeding). It was just a kick in the gut to see him spit it out. We defrosted a couple more bags from different months (to see if they all had high lipase as this wasn't a problem in the beginning) and they all were soapy. I had planned on maybe pumping and just cutting it 50/50 to feed W but with the dip in supply it looks like a no go. Hopefully my supply will recover from whatever is going on.

[packmomma]

amberlie I bet it looks awesome. Also I love pink hair!

[shellyr]

amberlie, I'm sure it will look good.

[Laverne]

still back at thursday trying to catch up. Glad to see you back, amberlie,.
I went to hobby lobby today to get some calendar stickers, inspired by parenting planner thread. I need motivation, heading to weightloss chatter after I catch up here.

[Laverne]

packmomma , hoping you are having a better night.
skinandbones , Your date sounded marvelous. Thank you for giving muse to my daydreaming.
amberlie , she is the cutest! I love that hair.
@janetheconquerer ,Nice work getting all that shit done, and helping your coworker, pic of kids is priceless. She takes after mom I see.

Damn. Kid is up. FML
ETA Punctuation is important

why is DH incapable of shhushing the child? I fed him and tried to walk out of room, but he isn't settling. I talked and shushed but I am not going to stand there in the doorway all night when DH is laying there 3 feet away. Is he deaf?
