Do the bingo squares count if you don't feel guilty about them? Because I sure as hell don't feel guilty about my epidural, sushi during pregnancy, or pizza for dinner (now or in the future when DD is old enough to eat it too).

2 pages already - you ladies have been busy!
I think I may finally have to get DD into her crib. She's started flopping around like a fish in her sleep and she's super noisy. She likes to lift her feet up in the air and then slam them down. Of course DH sleeps through it all :/

A-freaking-men!
Double amen! I think I have blackout bingo, except there hasn't been a picture day yet and he hasn't brought home any art yet (unless you could some of his diaper projects, which I throw away.)
My spam: there has to be a diaper that can contain this kid's urine. He was peeing through size one pampers swaddlers (11.5 lbs) so I got size 2 huggies. Put it on him at midnight and at 5:30 he was so wet I think the rock n play liner needs to be washed. Again. This is the third or fourth time this week.
In other shenanigans, my damn obgyn (with whom I will totally never be working again, her staff is inept.) jerked me around on calling my GI meds into the pharmacy for four straight days, then finally yesterday the nurse said "oh, well since you're not pregnant anymore you shouldn't be on them anymore, just take an otc." Ummmm I've been on this stuff for 25 years.... It stops me from getting stomach cancer! After a thirty second call to my GP I had the rx, but after missing four days I am sick as a dog right now. My fault for not self advocating earlier but I've forgotten how good this stuff is. Ugh!

DD does the exact thing with her feet. Now that she is in her crib she moves everywhere but kicking her feet. When she is faced sideways she will slam them into the side of the crib. Oh my gosh so loud.
I'm glad she doesn't make any artwork yet. I will probably be the mom who throws away EVERYTHING...
My girls are 3.5 and 5. Other than a handful of "special," pieces (like mothers day cards, a few nice school projects, etc) most artwork goes out with the recycling. There's just too much. Just yesterday I made them collect all their "artwork" off of the playroom floor before bed. I counted 45 pieces...45... This was all from one day AND we have a rule that they ha e to use both sides of the paper before it can be discarded. So that's 45 pages, front and back...in one day. Yea, there is no way I'm keeping all that. Just looking at one day's worth gives me anxiety.
miniwheat my hair is coming out way too fast too. Goodbye nice flowy locks of hair.
DS eventually slept through the night. Geez, we started bedtime at 8 and I didn't go to bed til 11. I just wish DS would poop and we wouldn't have these issues. He finally fell asleep on his tummy. Made me a little nervous but, he slept through the night. He wanted to sleep on his tummy again after his morning feed. Poor little guy, I hate seeing him be so uncomfortable.

I'm starting a packing list for our beach trip next week. DH didn't understand why I needed to prepare so early. He said DS's clothes are so little - we'll just take them all, a box of diapers, and a box of wipes. I just thought to myself you don't know how many times the 10 minutes of self entertainment with the floor gym has saved my sanity.

I've thrown away every artwork etc that DD has given me. I'm just not sentimental. Im not saving a piece of paper every time she scribbles on it. I even threw away her participation ribbon from some race.
mumomma13 I would go with the ILs watching him up in the hotel room. That way he's close and you can enjoy the night!
I second the above. I actually did that for my SIL once. It was her husbands family. They wanted to meet the twins but knew they wouldn't last long, so we all went to the reception for like an hour. Then I took them back up to the room and put them to bed. It worked for everyone.

Okay, serious question.
I know kiddos are curious about their bodies and tend to touch themselves, etc. That's not a problem. But DD sometimes tries to get me to put my hand down her diaper. Should that concern me? Is that normal?

Nah. Kids do crazy things for crazy reasons or no reason at all.
Just got back from the infant study. It was pretty cool. The overall research is on early detection of kids with/who are prone to autism spectrum disorders. DS did pretty well with minimal fussing. He is usually pretty happy sitting on my lap. I don't know how much they were able to track his eyes though, his toes seemed pretty interesting today.

That's what I figured. Then I second guessed myself.
I think I've hit my productivity limit for the day. I've gone to the gym, returned the library books, done 2 loads of laundry, hit up the grocery store, and going to throw dinner in the crock pot in a few. I think I'll shower and declare it Lazy Sweatpants Day from here on out.
My spam: I just remembered the window washers are at my building today and tomorrow and I don't know when they will be tramping through my apartment. Morning? Afternoon? Today? Tomorrow? What if LO is sleeping? What about the big pile of (clean) underwear on my bedroom floor!!!

Not much spam for me today.
Our sitter is off tomorrow because of a grandkids graduation/end of the year thing so DH took off. I hate that I can't too but at least I can leave the house etc and head to work without having to drop off DD
lilyelayne. Our house has all the lsu baseball games on too. (DH 's dad is a HUGE lsu fan. He had season tickets for football and baseball. DH has become a bit baseball obsessed this year because they are doing so well-- yet they were killing me in the first few innings! )
@holachica, way to go for going despite it not being under the best of circumstances. I would get really emotional at something like that. T's and P's that you end up somewhere that you love just as much!
Soo add me to the list of mama's who are suddenly losing a bunch of hair. Good thing I have way more than is necessary. Speaking of hair, I really want to attach a sign to LO's stroller that says, "No, baby does not have red hair. No, we are not disappointed!" I can't stand all the people (old ladies) who expect me to pull back his blanket/hat/whatever to see if he got my red hair. And, even worse, when they see he doesn't, they make some comment like "Oh that's too bad" or "Maybe next time" or some BS. Uhh, I love that LO got H's dark hair and he couldn't be more perfect or beautiful to us, thank you!
I have red hair, F had red hair when he was a baby but it's darker now. DD has red hair! if she was born with anything else I wouldnt have known where it came from! Oh yeah, and my hair is falling out by the handful as well. Buts it's also super thick so I'm ok with it until I get a bald spot
