DH and I took a workshop at the yoga studio for labor positions and partner support etc. I have never seen my poor husband more uncomfortable ... He is not bendy.
This is such an AW post but I'm so proud/appreciative of my husband right now and I had to put it somewhere! He has been meticulously putting up the curtains in the nursery for hours today. He's had to go to the hardware store twice and it isn't easy putting things in our walls because the windows are off center, studs are in weird places, etc. It is so adorable how perfect he wants them to be... And he's done it all with minimal cursing!
That's awesome! Mine had a bitch of a time hanging pictures in the nursery yesterday because the frames had stupid hooks... Then I decided they were all too close together and had him redo them. It's so cute to see them contribute in their little handyman way. (even with a few swear words.)
I love that! Even better that he had to redo them. he's unhappy with one of the sides of the curtain rods, something to do with the size of screws, but they look fantastic! Once I go buy a handheld steamer and get the wrinkles out, I'll post a picture!
No idea how to tag tatersalad but I just wanted to tell her thank you for addressing the crazy on the June 15 TB thread....it was getting pretty insane over there.

Haha it sounds like my DH isn't the only one nesting!

Oh definitely not! Today he sorted all of the boxes we still had piled up, put all kitchen items in the kitchen, bath stuff in the bathroom and all things we won't need for 6 months in the garage. I mostly just pointed from a chair which was awesome!

yesterday I totally sat in a lawn chair while DH dug out the massive flower bed I want. I felt pretty guilty so I got my little hand rake and totally pretended to break up some soil.

Where? I'm bored.
found it. It's in the More help from strangers than family post.
I can't decide if I miss those kinds of posts or not. It's fun to see how delusional people are and to attempt to set them straight, but it's also nice to just deal with sane, rational women who understand the way the world works.
I kind of miss the people trying to set them straight but it's nice to not have it cluttering up the board.
Oooh now she's getting butthurt.....hmmm it's getting interesting on TB....bets on how long till there's a DD? Can you tell I'm bored tonight?
hahahahaha. She started the night off butthurt. Do you expect much more from her? I'm bored too. I've got crazy heartburn, and this kid won't stop hanging out in my rib cage. No sleep tonight.
That sucks! Thankfully the increase in sunshine has been helping me sleep a bit.
Totally random - I was just looking at our blog and the list of names and due dates and it seems like more than half of those listed no longer post here. I wonder why so many dropped off? We aren't that boring are we?
I think for awhile, we were, but are slowly improving on that.

There are a lot of things I don't like on Pro-boards honestly and I still refuse to use that tapatalk app. I imagine there would have still been a drop off, but probably not as bad if the whole the dump fiasco never happened and we never left there.
I should have posted this in SQS this weekend, but I just thought of it: where is the best place for the car seat to go? Someone on FB was stressing out about it, and I realized that I hadn't even considered where it should be in the backseat.

At Gearapalooza a few weeks back they said the middle is the best spot, but that it's safe whether it's in the middle or on a side seat.

Middle is best, but then you get a second kid and they each have to go on an outside seat, so you just cross your fingers for no accidents

A bunch of us STM were talking about this a while ago. Technically, the safest place is the place where you have the best install of the seat, but I have heard and personally abide by that middle is preferred if you have a good install there.

Middle is great, if you can. Not all cars can have a middle install though - so check your car user manual. My car for example (Rogue) has fold down seats and the middle buckle is detachable so you legally cannot install a carseat with a detachable seatbelt.
With my first I opted for the passenger side, because of driver seat legroom (if H drove he wouldn't be able to put the seat back), and I lived in a place with lots of parallel parking, so I wanted to have baby on the 'sidewalk' side as often as possible incase I had to unload on the street.
We will do the same this time, and have already moved J's carseat to the drivers side so the infant seat can go on the passenger side again.
