It is Tuesday right? Time for Ten (or however many) Things...

[thecatsmeow]

1. Sorry for the random capitalization.
2. That and ellipses are my punctuational vices.
3. The thread title is pretty much my entire knowledge of Spanish.
4. I took a year of German in high school.
5. I should have titled this "Eins, Zwei, Drei, etc, ect..."
6. My Tuesdays tend to be entirely baby focused, then I struggle with TTT.
7. Like right here.
8. I do like reading everyone else's though.
9. So come and entertain me ladies!
10. I made it! With a lot of filler, I admit it.

This week (as promised last week in my ten things) I give you...my ten favorite Halloween movies. I will admit that some of these aren't actually Halloween but I still love them. In NO particular order:
1.Hocus Pocus....hpw can you not LOVE this movie?
2. Ghostbusters...duh
3. Practical Magic
4. Rocky Horror Picture Show
5. Casper- I had a mad crush on Devon Sawa as a kid
6. Sleepy Hollow
7. The Frighteners
8. Little Show of Horrors- not really Halloween but I love it
9. Witches of Eastwick
10. Nightmare Before Christmas

And some day I will FINALLY get brave enough to watch The Shining

1. Bought nail polish today. I think this is me being optimistic that I'll have time/can stay awake long enough to paint my nails.

2. Started packing for my girls weekend. I feel like I am going to need a full on suitcase so I can bring all my pumping/storage crap. Ugh.

3. Picked up "mrs" earrings at Kate Spade yesterday for the bride-to-be. So excited to give them to her!

4. One of my closest college friends got engaged today. I am so happy for him, but worried that it will mean another wedding next summer. We are already in/attending atleast 4. All of which require us to fly cross country. Ugh.

5. My mom is coming the weekend after this one! So excited for her to see how big B has gotten since she saw him in July/August

6. I am freaked out that DH won't eat while I am gone, so I am cooking two meals tonight. One for dinner, and a casserole for him to munch on all weekend.

7. I've had the last 2 days off, and I REALLY don't want to go back to school tomorrow. Wednesdays are my toughest day (no prep) AND I have a parent/teacher/student conference after school. Yuck.

8. B has been super fussy today. I think his teeth are really bothering him, and I think he is constipated. Poor guy.

9. Got my third stitch fix today. It was ok, but I'm only keeping one item. Does anyone else do stitch fix?

10. I am a die hard Red Sox fan, but since they aren't in the post season, I'll root for my NL team. Go Cubs!!!

[musicfrk2002]

1. We have been napping most of the afternoon. Yay!

2. J even slept in his crib for nearly 2 hours! I tried to read a book, but fell asleep instead.

3. Silly Midwest weatger. 80 degrees sunday, this morning it was mid 50s.

4. I probably need to get a car seat cover for winter.

5. Mixed feelings about grocery shopping while babywearing. Awesome because I don't need to pile stuff on and around him or use 2 carts, but I'm short so I feel like I can't reach anything. I'm sure the cashier was amused at me trying to get that box of graham crackers out of the bottom of my cart.

6. tiffbot is in trouble. I now have all the ingredients for the white chocolate smores bars she posted about last night.

7. I made brownies last night. The edges are crunchy. Boo.

8. Holy mother of cramps from hell. Ow.

9. The mobile on the swing just stopped. It only goes for 15 or 20 minutes. I wonder how long before I have to get up and walk across the room to turn it back on.

10. I bought a boba air a few weeks ago since my other carrier is so big. No wonder J hates it, he is just a little too small for it still.

[jessila]

Yay! This is my favorite.
1. Tuesdays suck schedule wise this school year.
2. My Tuesday students don't help my feelings on the day.
3. Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays I have to pump while driving to and from work.
4. I'm trying to figure out meal planning so I want to kill DH less during the week.
5. My mom watches creepy crime shows while at my house and they're always on when I start to nurse O. What up nightmares?
6. I keep wanting to make more lactation cookies but don't have the energy.
7. We go to settlement for a home equity loan on Friday.
8. Because we're really selling our townhouse!! But are taking a loss on it. Luckily our now house appraised well.
9. Can we take Owen to the bank because I think it's happening.
10. My mom cleaned my house again today. She didn't do it last week and I was super sad. Yay! Clean house!

[tiffbot]

musicfrk2002 we ended up with some leftovers and we put them in our fridge....lets just say the cold version is pretty amazing too!

[wegrowsheep]

@jemomma I LOL'd at your #8. for real though, I should mop my fridge.

I. I took Latin in highschool.
II. I need to round up my children and head to IL's.
III. My mom got another horse today, even though I told her not to. DD thinks it's Christmas early, so I'm trying to remember how I would have felt at that age.
IV. I made chocolate chip cookies again today. With a little cardamom.
V. T only poops when DH is busy or at work.
VI. MIL always asks what we want for dinner when we visit.
VII. After 9 months of an aversion to food, I'm thrilled to eat whatever. Really.
VIII. Except I feel nauseous in the mornings again. Nothing lke AF and daily nausea.
IX. I think DS1 has a stapler...
X. I have so many extra tomatoes, I might start leaving them on people's porches. By the box full.

[whoopsadaisy]

1. I spent last week at my parents' while DH was in Phoenix.
2. I think it's good for them to spend a lot of time with LO because
3. I'm afraid he won't want to be around them once stranger aversion hits at 6 mos.
4. They live in another state and we see them about once a month.
5. My mom is an excellent cook.
6. So while I was there I gained 7 pounds.
7. SEVEN.
8. That's more than a pound a day because I wasn't there a full week.
9. Disgust myself a bit, I was so proud of the (albeit small) amount of progress I was making!
10. Trying to get back to it this week. Oh good, dinner is ready! Om nom nom nom.

[txngrl31]

1. May parents are visiting from down South! Yay for an extra set of hands!

2. I made homemade vegetable/ hamburger soup in the slow cooker tonight.

3. I also made chocolate chip pumpkin bread.

4. I think DD is teething. Holy middle of the night wake ups!

5. Today was a long day and the red wine tasted good at dinner.

6. I need a mani, pedi and hair color like nobody's business!

7. DH and I are going to have dinner out sans baby since my parents are in town, *cue happy dance.

8. DD and I went to a mommy/ baby movie showing last week with moms and babies from our mom group. I highly recommend The Martian.

9. We took our annual fall foliage trip this past weekend to Maine. DD had her first international trip- we venture to Canada one day.

10. Two episodes in and Homeland is amazing, yet again.

[ravinraven216]

1.) Parent-Teacher conferences were a supreme waste of time.
2.) I want to stay in education, but my job is increasingly frustrating.
3.) The BBQ pulled pork sandwich and Rita's ice I had for dinner went a long way in making up for an otherwise shitty day.
4.) Oh, and we had a gas leak in our building and had to wait outside in the cold.
5.) As fussy as he can be in the evening, I really hated being away from LO today.
6.) I'm shedding and DH is having nosebleeds. Our bathroom trash looks like a war zone.
7.) Timing postpartum shedding with baby grabbing things is a cruel trick of nature.
8.) There should be a mandatory class in high school on how to fill out tax forms and benefit paperwork.
9.) I don't have too much else to say, but I'm determined to make it to 10 things purely on principle.
10.) Success! Now bed time!

[sugarkissed]

1. I've had a long, exhausting day and LO won't go to sleep.

2. DD1 is sick and so, so miserable, and woke up crying several times last night.

3. We had 2 Thanksgiving dinners this weekend. I need to go to the gym tomorrow.

4. I'm getting my hair done tomorrow! First time since LO was born.

5. It's also my first time I'll be away from her, ever.

6. My house is a disaster.

7. I'm too tired to clean.

8. I just had cookie dough ice cream. It was amazing.

9. DH is watching hockey. I'm bored and need some adult interaction.

10. I'd love a bath, but that would involve picking up all of the bath toys.
