Friday Randoms 10-9

[stinybean]

I totally almost wrote "Monday Randoms" wtf brain?

What are you doing today ladies?

[stinybean]

I just spent the last hour on the train lurking Parenting. First I lurked the "ghost" thread and then I lurked the come out of hiding lurkers thread. I really need to up my game in tcf considering I'm on here every 3-4 hours.

[carolyngrace]

Stayed up until 11 last night. DB was up at 12, 2:30, and 5. That's all. Feel like death.

Am I missing something? What do you mean up your game?

DH college friend might be coming over today. But he's also pretty flakey so who knows. He's really eccentric. Like the type of person who obsesses over certain topics and won't change the subject and will only talk about what he wants to talk about. His current obsession is photography. He's coming over to photograph the kids for free.

I did their exact same thing last night.  Lurked their UO and ghost thread.  @jemomma and I were marveling at the speed of those threads. Let's all get boozy and go crazy one of these days

Oh man. I'm feeling the same way. Just revived the are you awake thread buried at the bottom. What is going on with our babies??

[musicfrk2002]

J is learning about karma this morning.

Waking up 2 hours early means you WILL get the hiccups. Or that's what I have been telling him.

I don't think he cares.

[ashbash]

Decent nights sleep for us up at 10, 1, 4 and 7 but C isnt interested in nursing this morning, no clue why. I think my Aunt is going to come and take DD for a bit, C and I will chill and try to clean this disaster of a house

[tiffbot]

DD slept slightly better last night, slightly better bring up every 3 hours instead of frequent tossing and turning and wanting to be constantly held. Poor girl, that second tooth needs to come through and I think it will help her out.

Today I'll be picking H up from work at 3:30 and heading to the ILs for a couple days for thanksgiving! Then going to my parents farm Monday for more Thanksgiving and dad's birthday. So I won't be around much this weekend, hope everyone has a good one! And wish us luck on the 2 hour drive to my Ils.. DD is still back and forth on how much she likes car rides lol. Doing much better though.

[tiffbot]

Tuesday night I felt a little edge poking my finger Kristykristyleelee, and by yesterday the whole top part of the tooth was through enough to feel the whole thing. The one beside it is swollen yet and I can see that white line just waiting to come up too. It hurts my heart, I can't believe they came in so soon!!

ETA-I commented in my HDBD post that it had started poking through

[erbear]

Woke up to nurse at 5:45 with a raging headache. LO wouldn't go back to sleep, so I did something I claimed I never would pre-baby: I pulled her into bed with me. We snuggled and napped until 8 am. Glorious. I still feel slightly pukey, though.

Hanna Andersson is opening a new store today and I was going to go get free Jammies but I saw the line/pics from the VIP event last night and decided puking on the HA clothes would not be a good idea.

[dmoney]

DH and I just realized that we go to synagogue more often now that we have DD then we ever did before.

[erbear]

So, should I buy that little baby banana tooth brush or a soft one to clean her gums?

Her munch mitt came yesterday and all she did was wave her arm around. It was comically big!

wow I can't believe June15 got their 1st tooth.

poor baby

I know!! I'm sad for her pain, but it's also pretty exciting too. And sad for that little piece of 'babyhood' that's already gone! Oh goodness! I mentioned somewhere else that DS just cut his final molar at the end of August and I thought I'd have more time of toothless smiles while I accepted that he had officially gotten all his baby teeth in lol!

[tiffbot]

Holy @jemomma! I hope that somehow works itself out soon, wtf?!

[erbear]

That sucks, @jemomma. I hope you can figure it out, soon!

LO is putting weight on her knees. Staaaahp.

Idk! It's killing me that one night he'll only wake up once, and the next it could be 4 times.

That's a good thing! We're the opposite with church and I really wish we went more.

2nd tooth?!? Did I miss that a 1st tooth came through??

My reaction exactly! tiffbot, poor little babe! Hope she gets relief soon!!

[nchauhan]

Wow @jemomma, that's terrible! I hope your dr figures something out ASAP. Nonstop bleeding is the worst...you must be so tired.

budders, poor V, all the things are happening all at once

[nchauhan]

Guys, looks like my feet are not going to be going back down to their normal (pre pregnancy size). Where do you guys go for cute low/medium heels? I'm not a heel wearing girl, but my office and exam room are close enough that I can bop between the two as long as the heels are decently comfortable. I'm sick of wearing my ankle boots, and the only pants that fit are too long for me to wear flats.

Payless' Comfort Plus shoes are amazing! Cute and cheap and comfy.

V is still pretty congested but we sent him to daycare today even though I wanted H to stay home with him. Ped mentioned the other day that he thought he felt a tooth bud on his bottom gum, and V has had his hands in his mouth 24/7, so looks like we might be dealing with teething on top of being sick. Might as well do it all at once, right?

That could be causing the snottyness and fever....DS ALWAYS got snotty while teething.

Our Clergy said something to us about it earlier this week.  We both enjoy going just didnt make the time for it before.  But now that we have a little one, we want her to know her religion so we are making more of an effort to go!

[Widget123]

Is it me or not only do some of the FFFC's belong in randoms (as already mentioned in that thread) but some of the randoms could also work in FFFC? Looking at you dmoney and @babybean9.


ETA: I don't really care, but I thought I'd point it out.

Kristykristyleelee not all the time, but yes! We stopped swaddling him a few months ago, but I started again for this reason. It's so annoying.

I lurked May for a while, once I had my May baby I lurked more, so I had kept up on the ZZ drama. I was happy I caught it live in the ghost thread yesterday. I'm starting to be able to keep up with Parenting threads. Yaaaay.

Thanks for pointing this out @babybean9!  I don't always lurk parenting but I've been trying to keep up with the ZZ drama, so that latest development was interesting.

[Widget123]

For people who read the ghost thread or kept up with ZZ drama, I saw something on the May board that implies that "yellow" was one of ZZ's fake names. Is that true? Remember when she posted an intro on here? I questioned her authenticity and a couple of people gave me a hard time about it, that's part of why I remember.

Now that you mention that, I totally remember yellow. She didn't cause any drama on this board though, did she?

No.  We were probably too slow paced for her.

Yes! I saw this on the call out thread on parenting yesterday and was wracking my brain as to why the SN "yellow" was familiar and rang a "slightly sketch" bell. Totally remember that someone on our board had questioned her, had no idea it was you. Do you remember when it was?
