Two things about eggs:
1) I'm glad I didn't take a picture of mine because it's apparent these littles just showed me way up.
2) I had no idea egg farts existed. Maybe because I eat them every single day?
Edit: just asked H about it as I was hitting post. It seems as though I'm broken and everyone on the planet knows about egg farts. 😂😂 I like to think this is the positive trade off I get for not being able to consume dairy...
tgrimes1980 Shit I'm so sorry - what tipped you off (I might've missed it). AV constantly grabs her ear but my mom had said try sometimes do that while teething. My concern is that one time during a MOTN feeding I fell asleep as did she (MOT f'in Y) and I woke up to drenched bedding and her clothes and my arm - clearly the bottle spilled all over and I've questioned if it went in her ear. Sounds weird but it's the ear she grabs (does not cry though).
sophiegrace If I get a chance I'll take more photos. It's def #polishpride mixed with a little bit of just her style. But red and white everywhere.
dashook, in grade school, there was a huge Jewish community near my school so my friends used to bring matzo bark, coconut macaroons, Apple cinnamon latkes... do you make those? They were supper yummy
kleigh yassss #polishpride 4eva! sophiegrace I did get hot coffee! I even got to watch almost an entire TV show too! tgrimes1980 poor H, I hope he gets better asap! cheshie6 I refuse to eat matzah lol. But there are some good Passover foods! My family just doesn't seem to know about them 😂
We took so many adorable pics today. I'm feeling all sappy and just really, really thankful for my little family. This is what I've always wanted.
On a less happy note, MH's uncle is in the hospital. We don't know a whole lot because my FIL is really upset and not talking to anyone (it's his brother). But I don't think it's a good prognosis. Any positive thoughts you guys could spare would be very appreciated ❤️
I just remembered I made myself and H an Easter basket because I'll take any excuse to buy myself chocolate. Now I need the chocolate eggs that are in said basket but I'm in bed.
And that angel food cake with strawberries I made is also calling my name. With a nice glass of milk.
Crap.
Or, I could settle for a cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese.
sophiegrace I'll sit on your bench, I have never heard of egg farts until this thread. Also, M looked adorable in her basket.
vinolove I don't envy the snow, but love the shades! B got the same pair of blue Babiators in his basket today.
We had the best day...I hated for it to end. B loved the egg hunt and had so much fun playing with my cousins (who are teens). C was happy to be passed around and have her picture taken 7 zillion times. After lunch and the egg hunt we hung out in my parents' backyard drinking prosecco and catching up until almost 7. Weather was perfect and it was so relaxing.

She made it ClassyMrsA? That's amazing and so so special.
I'm so sorry tgrimes1980 I hope the meds kick in quickly and you're both sleeping better soon. Momma instincts FTW.
*Scribbles down orange-ginger salmon* starbuck27. I'm tired of our go to lemon juice one so I'll have to look that up.
*also scribbles down name of vinolove 's quartz* did you by any chance ever have granite too? I wonder what the differences are?
dashook yessssss to hot coffee!!! That is incredibly exciting. I haven't been able to put this babe down for a nap since we went away two weekend ago so the very first time that happens I'm not sure what I'll do! I'm thinking positive and loving thoughts and sending them your way!
Love the stroller and those happy faces waitwhat!! I hope J is sleeping away right now and you're enjoying family (and some wine!)
danib I've only made a whole turkey once and it was in a roaster. Since H and I moved away it's only been the two of us so we stick to just a breast. I should make one soon....
kleigh I recommend that you start texting your H about how much you're thinking about those chocolate eggs and angel food cake.
What a perfect day LizInFL! I'm so glad you had a wonderful time with family.

Yes sophiegrace! My mom made us clothes all the time and now has made a couple of dresses for Lillian. I asked her to teach me. I'll have to post pics of some of her other Nonna made clothes (some were mine).
Also, not vinolove, but I LOVE quartz countertops. IMO they're better than granite. You don't have to seal them, they're more durable, and can be less expensive. Also, since they're made from crushed up quartz bound together instead of a slab from a quarry, they won't randomly crack. Oh also they are more uniform in color generally speaking.

We had a great Easter! DS1 loved hunting for eggs! I made spicy spare ribs in the slow cooker and potatoes au gratin. My parents came over and brought guacamole deviled eggs and strawberry shortcake. I'm full and ready for bed and it's only 7pm
This is a stretch, but anyone here ever deal with CCL/ACL injuries in one of their dogs before?
No,but there's someone on N13 that is our go to animal person. She's not a vet but she worked with one for a long time. Would you like me to ask her?
If you don't mind. Because we're a bit more of a rural area the vets around here aren't that great. If it's more of a serious issue I would want to take him across the bridge into the city to get fixed up.
I'll start with the TL;DR my dog won't use his hind leg and I'm not sure if I should treat at home for a few days, take him to our local vet, or find a better place two-ish hours away from home.
Our 110 lb American Bully ran around this morning and hasn't put weight on his right hind leg since. We've always joked about how lazy he is considering we were warned up and down how high energy the breed can be. Lying down after one lap around the driveway, not running much, not enjoying trail walks, etc. We mentioned this to our vet and he told us to leash him and make him walk so he doesn't get heavy and risk putting too much weight on his hips. He hated that. He's limped on the same side before, but after a nap it always went away. The vet brushed it off at his yearly a month ago. I specifically asked for a different vet this go around because I felt the other one was more like interested in pushing products than taking care of our dogs.
Anyway, we googled away and poked and prodded and the only place that gets any reaction out of him was where it seems like a CCL injury would take place. He's a bulldog and incredibly stoic so a reaction coupled with not using his leg all day is a huge red flag. Heck, he could have been in pain for years. I'm wondering if it wasn't laziness at all, but instead him being in pain.
What I'm wondering, should I even bother taking him to our vet clinic for diagnostics? Is there anything I can do at home to fix him up? H can order any vet supples and medicines he might need, but I fear this might be headed towards the surgical route.
sophiegrace So funny about the egg farts. You really are lucky!
dashook I'm so sorry about your uncle. Your family will be in my thoughts.
waitwhat I'm not sure how to dress C for the night either. We've never used this room before but so far I've learned that it's freezing in the winter and hot and humid in this warmer weather. I feel like even a light jammie and light wearable blanket is too much right now but no blanket doesn't seem ok either.
@sarahwithanh Omg he's too cute in that outfit!! Hope things are going well for you guys.
We had a great Easter! DS1 loved hunting for eggs! I made spicy spare ribs in the slow cooker and potatoes au gratin. My parents came over and brought guacamole deviled eggs and strawberry shortcake. I'm full and ready for bed and it's only 7pm
Guacamole deviled eggs?!!! WHAAAAT?!! Do you replace the yolk completely with guac or mix it together.
How have I made it this far in life without knowing there were varieties of deviled eggs. Hard boiled eggs are my life. This is so exciting!!!!

@sarahwithanh my M is on a sleep strike for the moment so I showed her your M's pictures and she gave the screen one of those "oh my gosh!!!" Baby faces. I think she's in lurveee. Can't blame her. He's so beautiful.
It's acceptable to call baby boys beautiful, right? Sometimes I just don't think handsome cuts it.

I believe so! They didn't taste like they had yolk in them. You should try them, they were delicious!!
I'm sad because the hospital website said they were going to have ham, scalloped potatoes, and spiced apples tonight. They did not we got pasta takeout but it was meh.
I love food so much that when that happens I get disproportionately upset about it. You're going through enough, you should have at least gotten your dang ham!! Spiced apples sound delicious...
