I have every intention of trick or treating with LO this year and eating all of her candy. Do not care if it's against etiquette. She's born, she's a baby, she gets candy. Just because she can't eat it doesn't mean she can't help mom out a little.

I buy little Halloween rubber ducks for anyone too young for candy. I'm not gonna lie I LOVE seeing the babies but totally make fun of the parents for using them to get candy. Maybe that should be my FFFC?
On top of everything else, I packed my stethoscope for out trip this weekend because LO has the same cold as DH and I'm super paranoid. I might listen to her lungs every few hours. Maybe.
Damn...now I want to know how to use a stethoscope! I would totally do this if I was trained!

Another FFFC-last year at our annual Halloween party I opened the door and totally didn't know if the couple standing there were trick or treaters or party guests. So awkward! The worst part? I had totally met them at one of DHs staff functions less than a month before but didn't recognize them in costume.

When I am not crying about going back to work, I am relishing the thought of going back to being the gunner of my department. It's gross, but it's fun to be better at my job than my colleagues.

Don't understand gunner of your department? Explain?
+1...I wasn't sure what a gunner is, so I couldn't be grossed out by your confession
If I have a bratty adult patient, I take extra long (maybe 2 extra minutes) to assess the health at the back of their light with that super bright light. It's my way of getting back at them for being a shit.

DH still does this with LBB. Poor kid. He even remembers what candy is in his bucket and gets all upset when it's not there. Which I totally get since DH also has a habit of eating treats I'm looking forward to having myself.

My husband actually believed that Halloween kisses were gross and dangerous because his parents used to take them away....turns (they later admitted) they were saving them for themselves lol.

I rarely wear shoes in the office. As soon as I get to my desk I kick them off. Most of the time I remember to put them on before I run to the water cooler.
billyhorrible, Me too!! The only times I wear shoes is if there are clients in the office. Other than that it's always socks. Which in turn is why my socks get holes in them like every three months... Yikes.

billyhorrible, we have a mandatory shoes rule in our office now because someone complained about people walking around in bare feet or socks. I got an exemption when my shoes stopped fitting. I have to admit, it felt kinda good!
I refuse to schedule non emergency, "emergency" appointments Fridays after 4pm. I'm not staying late to wait on your ass because you ran out of contacts two months ago and can't buy new ones until you have a new exam. This is not an emergency, this is poor time management on your part. You may come in Saturday morning. This is especially true if you are not even my patient and have never been to our office.
I kind of hate not having my period yet. I know I should be all happy, and I am on the MINI pill until I can get approval from my insurance to have an IUD, but recently I started freaking out if I was pregnant or not. I know I am not, because you actually have to have sex to get pregnant, but it is still freaking me out a bit.

I am so done with work today and just found out that the Dr. has already left the other clinic for the day. I'm now working on one of DH's Christmas presents...I can't do it at home cause he'll see, so this is perfect!

Almost a wrapped toffee? They are hard to describe.
Currently watching my baby play in his swing through the video monitor so I can lie in bed. He's having a grand time and is cooing and chuckling at the light on his fan

I've only had one real crush since getting married. I confess I have it bad for my pastor. Who is also married to my friend and father to five children. And lives on my street. And I work with closely on a few committees. Ugh. I actively fight against it, but sometimes I have "if both our spouses tragically die" fantasies.
Oh. I have another. My mom comes to my house to watch Owen while we work-she retired so she could. We do pay her ($50/day which is a phenomenal rate). AND SHE KEEPS CLEANING MY HOUSE!!!! She told me prior to O being born that she wouldn't but she has every day so far. He takes a super long nap in the morning and she's bored so she cleans. I love it. The first day she mopped my kitchen which hadn't happened in months. She, at the least, makes my bed every day.

But on a serious note, can your mom adopt me? Like not as a mom but as like a super cool aunt. LMK.

My FFSC is that my DH is helping me clean today (this has NEVER happened before) because I am freaking that we are hosting a baby shower tomorrow, and I am totally pretending that B is still nursing (he has been done for probably 15 minutes). So far, he has swept/mopped, emptied the trash cans, vacuumed the bedrooms and now he is dusting. This is great! I should plan a shower every weekend!

I too am on the mini pill and not getting my period. I have a stash of pregnancy tests for whenever I freak out.
The grass is always greener...I'm also on the mini pill and just got my period. It blows. I was so hoping for no period until I was done BF. Plus, I'll have no idea when it's coming..I ruined a pair of pretty panties last night!
