Has anyone seen Mr. & Mrs. Smith (movie)? You know the therapist scenes where they act out how they feel? Well, sometimes I feel like that towards H's family. I swear, no one can make a plan and stick to it. In less than 24 hours, plans have changed about 5 times for today!

Religious-y post here.
Jackson was blessed in church today. My dad performed the blessing. Oh man, I cried so hard. My husband was baptized into our church a year ago. Today he was able to receive the Priesthood (if you don't know anything about Mormonism, its a very special thing for us.) Again, I cried. Today has just been a really good day. I feel so happy and spiritually uplifted. All of my siblings and their families are here too because they wanted to see the blessing. We're all having dinner at my parents house tonight and then having a bonfire with s'mores when it gets dark. On top of it all, Jacks has been so well behaved during church. I wish all days could be this good.
Blew my own mind today. The characters in Winnie the Pooh are totally based on emotions and stuff. Piglet- fear Rabbit- anger Tigger- happiness Eeyore- sadness Owl- intelligence Pooh- I haven't figure that out. Maybe friendship?

Whenever we make plans with my in laws the plans change a million times and we have to beat to death every scenario. It's exhaustung. You have my sympathy.

Thanks for all the recs on diaper cream ladies. We used my peri bottles to wash his bum last night...Yay peri bottles!! Lol! And used desitin and gold bond powder and his bum is Soooo much better this morning. I also just saw an ad for a Boudreau bum protectant I might pick up to protect his bum with all the pooping.

Holy shit, you guys. I came down after showering (is like a vacation!) and the diaper bag is packed. Her bottles are washed and made up. She has backup clothes, bibs, blankets, and my Moby in there.
Who came to my house and beat some sense into dh? I love you.

I used my peri bottles in the bath to aim water away from her face and her shunt incision while shampooing. I'm so glad I stole like 10 of those things. So useful.

Sleep deprivation feels like underwater.
Birthday BBQ at the in-laws today, they ordered me a red velvet cake which I'm super excited for. I really want to stay home, though. I think I get like, 2 hours of sleep a night and the sleep debt is adding up.
NIP, guy at the pizza shop starts watching. "Eyes on your own lunch, buddy. "
You rock. I had a situation like this once...there is this guy that walks the local mall...he is a very bad transvestite. I was sitting in one of the seating areas with my mom nursing my daughter and he stopped and stared. We made eye contact and I waved and grinned at him real big and said hey! I've never seen somebody take off running so fast in my life. It was awesome. :-) Eta: I have no problem with transvestites, he just isn't a very pretty one.

I think it's "Transgender" now. Transvestite might be seen as derogatory

I don't have a lot of experience with the correct terms, but I always thought Transgender was someone who wanted to be either man or woman, whichever one they aren't physically. And I thought transvestite was just someone who wore men's or women's clothing the opposite of their sex.

Yea a transvestite is a cross dresser. My ex from middle and high school is now happily married to a man and dresses up in drag on the weekends. He is a hot woman and I am insanely jealous.

Pumping at the in laws. DH and I had a long conversation in the car on the way here. Doing much better. Being captive for like an hour will do that.
Dog loves Amelia. Is super excited to see us again after 4 months.
MIL is hovering. Tried to explain this very complicated introduction with the dog that involved sniffing us, our stuff, baby blanket, hiding and taking baby out of car seat, sniffing carseat, removing baby's socks, letting her see the baby, etc. Instead, dh grabbed dog, I grabbed Amelia, we stood next to each other. The dog is a 10 pound dachshund who is literally terrified of the wind.

Quote box fail!!
I'm fairly certain this man falls under the transvestite category and not transgender. He is no Caitlin Jenner.

It's so effin cold here. Cold shitty rainy. We're supposed to go to a bbq today at my dad's but I kinda just want to stay home and get some housework done. If it wasn't for the fact that great grandma hasn't seen the baby yet, I wouldn't be going.

Sorry to hear about the troubles, glad your H seems to be doing better!
As for the dog intro, ours was basically the same as yours. Except my dogs are both around 55 lbs. We just did one at a time. One is naturally a calm,mellow dog and was not an issue. The other is just a more excitable, overly friendly dog. Gotta watch her, that tail is like a whip. Otherwise, no big deal.
