My glasses broke this afternoon (one of the screws came out). I've got my contacts until I can get around to getting them fixed, but I keep going to try and push them up on my nose and they aren't there. I've heard of phantom limbs for people who've had amputations, but this is ridiculous.
I do this too. Also spend a long time hunting for my missing glasses even though I can see fie because contacts.
lablover13, glad DD is okay, hopefully you'll be all better soon too.
Liv, Do you have Dunkins where you are? Their seasonal donuts are cookie dough filled with chocolate chip topping or brownie batter filled and topped with sugar hearts and more chocolate.
I got a brownie batter donut yesterday then split a cookie dough with DD1 and DH. FFSC - I did not want to share the cookie dough donut. Also we have girl scout samoas downstairs but not for long. Also I have a hershy bar in by nightstand but not for long. Damn you AF for making me eat all the things.
@iheartmyshiba, cosleeping is a lot easier if you're used to it. We co-slept until DD got her own room in January and I never had trouble sleeping, plus it was easier to BF lying down. DH put her in bed with me a couple of times lately when she was awake early fussing and I couldn't settle at all. FX for you catching up on sleep or getting a sneaky nap in to balance it out!

I LOVE Dunkin but we only have one in our entire metro area and it's not in a part of the city that I ever am in. :/ They have this whipped cream type filled donut that I crave whenever someone talks about donuts. They have them in the travel plazas on the toll road on the drive to my parents so if I'm not alone in the car with DD I make DH stop.
DH shows his love for me by bringing me Dunkin hot chocolate 'just because' on his way home from work. He shows he knew he was in the dog house by also bringing me a donut. One of the awesome things about where we live is never being more than 10 minutes from Dunkins.
I'm jealous @darkangel42 ! It's a trek for us to get to one now. Thankfully we were 2 min from one when Junie was born. I lived on iced coffee and donuts for the first 3 months. It's still our go-to mood fix on rough days.
Yes to the vanilla cream donuts at dunkin. But I burnt my tongue on their coffee this morning so that sucked. My MIL is coming this week and staying with us for a few days and I'm irrationally irritated about it. I won't get to nap on my days off, I'll have to entertain her, and I just generally feel uncomfortable with her all up in my space.

All this talk about donuts and iced coffee makes me wish the weather was better lol. I'd love a donut and an ice Capp. We don't have DD or KK here, but we have Tim Hortons. Iced Capps are basically coffee slushies, but I love them.
Got on the scale yesterday morning and it was sub 150. I haven't seen that in about a year! Home stretch to pre-pregnancy weight (which I really don't expect to see until DD weans).

Went to a wedding this weekend, it was awesome stayed in an amazing hotel in Jersey City overlooking the Freedom Tower and the Statue of Liberty. Great time, great friends, slept in (DD was with my brother). Pumping even worked out great.... Until I left all the milk I pumped while sober, and a bottle, in the fridge. Ughh so annoyed at myself. Also it's taken us 3 hours to get home (usually 1-1.5hr) because it's flippin' snowing....AGAIN grr
How do you ladies do nap time? Do you have a routine, or schedule? Joey was acting so tired and barely napped except for in the car, so I tried to get him down in his crib. He slept for 15 minutes and is now screaming. For those that did sleep training/cry it out, did you do it for naps too?

We put him in the crib at 1030 every morning. He usually falls asleep within 10 minutes. I thinks he's used to that routine now. We don't have an afternoon nap schedule yet.

We've got a rough schedule, except for afternoon nap. She *usually* naps around 9am to as long as 11. We always put her down at 1 (same time as DS) to get a couple quiet hours mid day, and she occasionally naps in the evenings (4:30-6ish). We didsleep training for night and part of that is our daily schedule with does include nap times, so she did get sleep trained for naps but it was a lot less regimented because it's part of her routine and when she's sleepy anyways.

We usually put DD in her crib at around 10am she plays around for a bit and falls asleep by 10:30, usually only sleeps for half an hour and then back in her crib at 1:30 and she will fall asleep on her own until about 3:30ish. Then she's up until bed time at 7pm.
I started letting her hang out and play in there for a bit and she started to put herself to sleep, rather than trying to fight her down.

So I signed up for Amazon Mom diapers to be shipped and I just found out that my prime shipping doesn't apply to subscription orders?? WTF, Amazon!! So I won't get my diapers until NEXT week, which means I'm going to have to go and buy some from the store. And to use my 2 day shipping to get them earlier don't get the 20% off. I ordered the largest box, but what if that doesn't make it though the month? So every month I have to either go buy diapers from the store to tide me over or pay extra to get them earlier?? This seems like a horribly planned idea.

We are so not the schedule type. If he is tired, he naps. If he's hungry, he eats. This works for us now and I'm hoping it will stay that way. Sometimes even if he's not tired I will put him in his crib with a few quiet toys for some down time.

I got way too drunk last night. It was a lot of fun but will not be doing it again for a very long time. I'm getting way to old for that shit.
DH annoyed the crap out of me because I passed out once I got home. He did get the baby to sleep but then he went to our neighbors to drink. No cool. Our video monitor reaches but srsly
