Sleep-in Saturday Randoms

[codypup]

W has been asleep for almost 2 hours. I think when she wakes up I'll take us to a panera lunch date and then to the park.

That means I need to get dressed though. We're both still in our pjs.

Random: how much do you guys pay for a haircut? Just a cut and blow dry, no color. I think I'm sticker shocked from living in Georgia where a cut at an Aveda salon is only $35.

If I don't get any colour or anything, I think it's still about $60 for a haircut for me...
ETA: that's going to a nice salon, I'm sure I could go somewhere cheaper.

It's $75 in long island. When I was fanceh with no kids I went to the same hairdresser as Katie Curic and paid $175 for a cut and NO blowdry.

I printed off a tutorial for making ties. They might (definitely will) take longer than I thought.

Bow ties or regular?

I have double nappers. I'm officially living the dream!

Okay visit with my dad went well. We ended up going to the park since its nice out - he loved pushing LO on the swing! We also took her over to see the dogs in the dog park and she was really into that. Then we went to Friendly's and she was a disaster and fell asleep in the car. Now I can finally shower and then I will attempt to build her Radio Flyer trike! It was supposed to be a Christmas present but I overbought and saved it for her birthday. Then I forgot about it until like 2 weeks ago. So it looks like the Easter Bunny is bringing C a trike!

We got LO the trike for her bday too but fsnow meant it came out just recently. It was not too bad to put together, would've been easier without a 3yr old assistant. And Lo loves it.

Anyone else have LOs with super ticklish feet? I'm trying to cut A's toenails and he's losing his mind with giggles! He's kicking his feet so much I can't get them finished

DH is in the doghouse.

Ut-oh...what did he do/didn't do?

[ciaomama]

My neighbor just gave DS a huge Mickey Mouse stuffed animal for Easter. I hate stuffed animals and DS already has too many. I really want to just take it to GoodWill

[starfisher]

Nothing like surprise guests to get your house clean in 10 mins flat. I should have people drop in more often!

[5ofthem2ofus]

LO just climbed up on the love seat and but himself down for a nap! I about jumped up for joy and cried as his lack of snuggles needed to zonk out! What happened to my baby?!!


ciaomama I would donate it- but then be paranoid that the neighbors would be looking for lo playing w it- so then I'd have it make an appearance w LO a few times then donate that sucker!

[starfisher]

Dh sent this to me - I think most of us can relate.

E is a little grumpy today so MH decided that it might be better if he goes to said party by himself. Woot! Now fx for a smooth bedtime so I can be alone in my house.

[caer]

Back from Hershey Park. LO rode the carousel and the steam train.
The one thing that I didn't consider is that the park is filled with delicious treats - funnel cakes, cotton candy, popcorn and tons and tons of hershey candy. This season pass could be dangerous!

I think I'm going to give myself a pedicure today. I obviously need to go to target and buy nail polish (and all of the things) first. What color should I paint them?

I love bright pink for spring!

Well, I was going to post a pic of the skirts I made for DH's cousin's little girl, but it won't let me upload a picture.

I got those made this morning, and got my workout in. I'm about to jump in the shower, then we'll head to the IL's.

[bluedot]

@elf828 you'll be happy to know DH approved the NMG bingo game. He can't believe there is no app available to make a custom bingo card, and play a game like this. He now wants to invent it. haha

Some of the squares we came up with were:

Bringing unwanted gifts
Talking about a random person dying
Someone she knows thinks she is dying
She fell down
She was dizzy
She forgot to take her meds
She wears the aztec sweater
She gives a choking hazard
She talks about D&B getting divorced
She talks about how D&B are staying together for the kids
She talks about The S family
She dubs a child with an affliction they don't really have
She asks about my mom in a condescending way
She mentions how FIL is mean to her


And they are here... let the fun begin

Does anyone have a roomba? I'd love some reviews. We have hardwood floor and carpet in case that makes a difference. We also have two cats, one of which leaves a trail of fur (in place of Hansel and Gretel's breadcrumbs).
It seems like it might be a good way to help keep our house cleaner without hiring a maid.

My gf has one and I think it's a waste of money - she still ends up sweeping before she mops

[jackiep1023]

It loaded finally! Neither skirt is attached to the onesie, both are elastic waist. One is meant to be worn up under her arms. I think they are both pretty cute!

[MissDemeanor]

Now I think R needs a wagon. He loves to put things in other things

[codypup]

My h is over an hour late from work and just sent me a text that he's JUST leaving now. Arghhhhh.

[avswolf]

Guyz....I have the best son ever!!! I told 1 I hated my business cards because they didn't represent what I can do, and he took it upon himself to order me these! They showed up today and I was so surprised. I love them!!!

[tenniscourt]

I ended up having a good day. My DH's grandma let LO have a drink of lemonade and an ice cream cone (didn't eat it all obviously) without asking but I couldn't even bring myself to care. Everyone was playing with him and DH and I played pool and ping pong and it was just nice.

[mevaroo]

avswolf what a sweet thing for him to do for you!
