Thanksgiving randomness

[minae01]

I'm heading over to MIL's for the entire day. Dinner is at 2 and I'm really hoping all my kids will be sleeping so I can eat in peace!

Oh my gosh. It has started.

I am at a relative's house who has sold their house. The next owners are Indian.

J fell over and BIL said, oh no, you just dented the curry man's house. I said that's not nice. Sister (his wife) goes all dramatic and says that BIL is being racist and needs to apologize.

Stfu.

Your bil has a never-ending supply of assholery.

We went to my grandparents today. Lunch was supposed to be at 12. We ate after 3. Other than having a starving toddler it went really well. Now I'm just relaxing on the 3 hr car ride while the kiddos sleep.

My dad came and got the kids this morning. DH and I have all day to do whatever we want. This is the first time we have had a babysitter since M was born (besides our trip to SF for business).

We drove to Missouri yesterday, it's a 7 hour drive and Ry did really well , we will drive home tomorrow.
I'm going shopping in a little bit hopefully there will be some good deals still!

We do BLW. M can eat just about anything now. He's one of the older babies though I think. For Thanksgiving he had turkey, sweet potatoes, green beans, and a taste of pie.

Happy birthday @pennygirl2013!

We're doing BLW since DD2 gags on any kind of puree, even mashed or sweet potatoes. She's doing great with BLW though.

So after my stroller strides class today at the mall me and a few moms were infront of a store chatting. One of the old mall walkers walked by and said "don't you ladies have work to do?" I pointed and the boys and said "they are my work!"......he then says " go do some dishes or fold something" and looked back and laughed.

If looks could kill that asshole would have dropped dead.

My jaw is on the floor. Was he fucking serious?

Happy Birthday, @pennygirl2013! Dirty 30!! I hope you're out getting drunk and celebrating 30 years of awesomeness!

Happy birthday @pennygirl2013!

That was so obnoxious of him @unicornofthesea, throat punch to him!

We drove middle of the night both ways for thanksgiving, about 8 hours each way with stops. I am so tired. But at least we missed all the traffic, except in DC, even late at night DC has traffic on the beltway.

Most of DH's family was sick while we were there, hopefully none of us caught anything from them.

Glad to be home and decorating for Christmas!

I ordered my Christmas cards and today we bought our tree. We also got the kids a fake white tree to decorate for the loft by their rooms. They love it.

Would you guys feel bad sending back rings from etsy that are too big? I used a chart from online to figure out my ring size when I ordered them. They measure a size bigger than what I ordered.

I asked the seller if they run big and she just said they'd send me a smaller size if I want. One of them actually has a spot that looks tarnished on it so she said they'd already replace the one...they are hand stamped with "L" on them. As a crafter I feel bad if she can't resell them. But I also want ones that fit good and won't slide off

As a crafter, don't you want your customers to be satisfied? You're not being difficult, you just want a ring that fits. I think it's reasonable for you to request one that fits correctly. She may be able to figure out a way to reuse the big ring.

I have an appointment to get my hair done for the first time since M was born. I'm excited but a little embarrassed I've let it go this long.

gooselover2012 I would suspect it has to do with teething.

I wouldn't worry about it yet. DD's appetite has been so wonky lately. I don't see any teeth, and doubt they are coming soon. How has she been doing with solids gooselover2012?

scotty138, how's the hair? Do you feel fabulous? Pics are always welcome on the private board ;-)

DS wanted to nurse ALL night, last night was the second night in a row. I am so tired. I am guessing he is teething. The second I cut him off he starts crying, like in pain crying.
And he usually sleeps on his tummy now (he gets there himself), but he crys in pain when he rolls to his tummy at night. I am so sad for him, I hope whatever it is goes away soon. Plus, I would really like a little bit of sleep.

[scotty138]

Has anyone ordered a good baby's first Christmas ornament?

[RNCrystal]

I'm idiot husband missed his flight and is now delayed another 3 hours! They've been gone a week! I just want to see my baby girl!

I want to eat Tacobell so bad right now.

H was supposed to get me a strawberry shake. He is picking up moving boxes instead.

We are go to buy that house. One downside is very small attic storage, but most of that crap never comes down anyway, so purge...

We have a house with not a lot of storage. We have an attic, but it geT's so hot in there during the summer, I hate to put much in it. I wish I could find the time to purge.
Good luck with the packing, and purging, and all the moving!

Funny thing about ornaments: we started decorating our tree today. DS1 has at least 10 Baby's First Christmas ornaments. DS2 has 2. I felt so bad. Poor 2nd child!
