I have a doctor appointment for my daughter today. I'm a little nervous - she's such a drama queen. Last visit she was giving these little hiccuping sobs all the way home. Also, anyone else feel like going to the doctor is like a test of your mothering capabilities? The doctor is looking into her ears with the little light thing, the poor baby is having hysterics, and all I can think is oh god! I forgot to clean her ears last night!
I read this and thought to myself "I never clean DS' ears..."

2nd Pregnancy October 2014 - July 8, 2015 Due Date!Stick bean, stick!
I picked a fight with FI last night about him not being thankful and eating all the food and I never have anything to bring to work. He made me lunch last night and left it in the fridge for me to find this morning. Bawled all the way to work. Bawling at my desk now just thinking about how awful I am. Guess I better shave before he gets home tonight....
We really need to give our dog a bath, it's been over a week and all I can smell at night is his frito paws. Just have no motivation to bathe him and the groomers are booked all weekend.
I just dropped my fur baby off at the Vet to get neutered. I bawled like a baby. My SO said I was being ridiculous and embarrassing him.
I've cried every time I've dropped one of my dogs off for a procedure they've had to go under for. I can't help it!
My mom still makes fun of me. We took my 2 cats in for their yearly physical. The vet is our long time family vet and a great doc. But he's a little old and hard of hearing. He went to take their temp rectally, starting with the boy cat. He kept meowing and looking at me I felt so awful. The thermometer beeped like it was done but the vet didn't hear it. I finally yelled that's enough and made the vet stop and wouldn't let him take the girl cats temperature. My poor babies!

I work very closely with one particular co-worker (we package up parts all day - some of which are large and heavy (which she handles now that I'm pregnant)) and she's a great worker - except that she gets allergic reactions to deodorants (all kinds, she's tried them all) and can get quite ripe as the day progresses. I used to notice it and could handle it, but now I smell it so much more than I did in the past. I'm really not looking forward to the warmer months when heat will be involved.
I haz the sadz today, for purely ridiculous reasons.
1. I've made a Spotify playlist of all the songs I'd like to know all the words to so I can sing them to the baby. Every single one of them makes me cry. Do any of you know Little Chickadee, by The Chenille Sisters? Sobs. Rationally I should just stop listening to it, but instead I'm sitting at work sniffling.
2. I just finished my binge-watch of Veronica Mars seasons 1-3 and the movie and I can't come to grips with the fact that it's over. I need more of this in my life:

Even though we have talked about it plenty here and I've done this before, last night DH mentioned something about labor (I think? I can't even remember what he mentioned) and I had this giant cloud of "holy crap this baby has to actually come out of me" come over me. This is my third kid...I should know this by know.
So I went to the salon last night. Showed the stylist some ideas, but then looked her in the eyes and said "but I don't cut hair, you cut hair, so if you know that won't work and what will, then go for it." Side note: never met this woman before. She goes ok!, said I had great eyes and we should show those off, and here I am today with an AMAZING cut that I love. And despite being pretty short (for me) DH loves it too. I just found myself a new stylist! Yay!!!
We really need to give our dog a bath, it's been over a week and all I can smell at night is his frito paws. Just have no motivation to bathe him and the groomers are booked all weekend.
OMG! You called them frito paws. Everyone I say that to thinks I am crazy, but dirty dog feet really smell like fritos. My vet finally explained why to me recently and it totally makes sense now. LOL.
My random. Maybe a rant. I met up with an old friend last week whom I had not seen in 10 years. She has 2 adorable kids. She's a total attachment/helicopter/co-sleeper/ extended breast feeder. Like 2.5 year breast feeder. Which is all fine. It works for her family and that's the kinda mom she wants to be. But all those parenting styles don't work for everyone. When I told her I most likely was one and done, don't plan on co-sleeping, EBF, I felt very judged. It was clear she thought I was wrong and made it sound like I needed to do all of those things to be a good mom. Fast forward a week, I don't even want to talk to her. Haven't even sent a text. Everyone should choose what seems right for their family and not judge other moms when they don't adopt the same parenting styles. Maybe I'm too sensitive. Just a bit hurt/offended. End rant.

Oh that sucks. For both of you. I'm sure it's gotta embarrassing for her, too. Right?
On the opposite end of the spectrum, I've been married to DH for 8 years and I found out only a few months ago that he doesn't wear deodorant,, except for "special occasions". The man has no smell. How is that possible?? I don't think he's even gone through 3 sticks of deodorant since we've been married.
Yes, it's embarrassing for her too. She was very hesitant to tell me when she first started last year and for a while she had found one that worked but it recently stopped working and there's not much left to try.
I swear I go through like 3 sticks of deodorant in no time! I find that kind of fascinating that you just found that out!

I am always reluctant to tell people, but I only wear it when it is super hot out for a precaution. I don't really sweat that much there. I think all the sweat in my body comes from my feet. I have however been known to put deodorant on my feet. LOL. It makes me all itchy and gross on my underarms.

Speaking of dogs at the vet... I dropped mine off to be groomed today and I thought she was going to have a seizure when I was leaving... She was crying and barking and trying to get back to me; it made me really really upset!!! I'm only leaving her for 8 hours, but I feel terrible!

My dd left a crayon in front of the space heater and it melted all over the carpet. Ugh. Anyone know how to get crayon out?
So. Let it harden and pick as much off as you can by hand. Then, get really absorbent paper towels and layer them on top of the wax. Put an iron on top of the paper towels to heat it up and melt the wax. The paper towels will absorb most of the wax. Be careful not to get the iron too hot for the carpet though. Start with low heat and work your way up. Repeat with clean paper towels until it is absorbed. Hopefully it won't leave any color from the crayon. That's the hardest part to get out.
I think Ovia is wrong. It says I'm carrying a haas avocado. That seems too big.
Same. Like, where would that fit? Since I saw that on ovia, I've been worried, thinking things aren't progressing as they should.
Lol, I wonder the same thing with each new fruit/vegetable comparison. Where in the world would a pomegranate fit in me right now? When I was supposedly carrying an orange or an avocado sized baby, I held both up to my belly at the grocery store and asked DH what he thought. He made a funny face.
