DS has this train a neighbor was getting rid of and we took. It speaks Polish, but DS has fun playing with it and it doubles as a walking toy when he's older.
When it's on it sometimes randomly makes noise like someone is playing with it. It's a little creepy.
I turned it on for DS to play with and it was quiet when he was done and I fed him lunch. This was about an hour. Once I took him back to the bedroom to nurse and nap, the thing started up making noise. I've been in nap jail and the thing has been going off every 15 minutes for the last hour which is 2.5 hours after he stopped playing.
Pushing wake up later is so hard. DS has a 530 to 630 am wake up regardless of bedtime. And does not sleep well at daycare. So we aim to have him asleep by 630pm every night.
Morning I am still in Texas, we come home tomorrow yay!! Today is my "anniversary gift" of attending our second football game except they didn't even get me a ticket.
seamonster that is odd. My brother had a rocking horse that does that it would go off in the middle of the night. Needless to say the batteries are gone.
When a bunch of you are staying at a house would you walk into someone else's room to look for something without asking? ( They are definitely not in there)
Does your family discuss Christmas gifts? especially with the kids do you ask what they need / make sure they aren't getting duplicates?
Happy Saturday everyone! Hope all of you have a great one! Painting playroom today as well as cooking and of course must not forget watching football! Being in the south it's a must. Gonna be rainy today to so good day to stay inside.

Yes I ask what they want or need! Of course on my husbands side they say they don't know.... I'm like yeah right just spill the beans ok!!

Why are babies such creatures of the morning?
Yup, F is in bed asleep by 6:30pm and awake at 5am. Then he wants a nap by 7am. Just sleep later!
Hope you get lots of rest this weekend! No fun being woke up so early!
seamonster are the batteries going out on the train toy? Sometimes low battery can make toys like that act erratically. 2febgrls who's your football team?
Rainy rainy rainy day here. Not much to do but avoid chores and try not to be nervous about the LSU / Alabama game. I don't know why football is so stressful. But ahhhh I hope we win.

Football is very stressful especially in the sec. It gets loud in this household! We are Auburn fans big time. But I would have to go Bama on the big game! Your gonna shoot me... Lol

LOL I thought about that after I posted. Nope not KU. A family acquaintance had a dramatic reaction to the name (her newest great grandson's name), so I was curious about others opinions.

OH KAY. You had me on the edge of my seat!
1) Hugo is a fine name. Not my style but certainly nothing to get up in arms about.
2) depends heavily on the situation & whose room it is.
3) for little kids who aren't babies I ask the parents if there's anything they need, especially things parents would be paying for anyway - can I pay for a month or two of dance class tuition? Or new shoes / leotards / etc? Swim lessons? Tickets for Disney junior live? I always give books as gifts too, so I don't have to worry about what the kid will open if I'm giving an intangible or delayed present. If I'm giving a toy, it depends. If it's something unique (like an etsy find) I'll usually just get it. For Christmas I do tend to run my nephews gifts by my ILs and our other SIL to see if there's duplication.

It's on our baby boy name list because our first one already has an authors surname (Beckett) and we think it would be fun to keep the theme. Hey, better than Camus or Dickens right?
It could easily be Hugh for short and certainly isn't abrasive. Ive found the biggest name critics are always the grandparents. You can't win.
Ugh, I just took the coldest shower ever. Our hot water is somehow broken and DH is out of town so I have no idea what to do. Luckily my dad will be coming in in a few hours hopefully he can figure it out.
It would depend on the situation, but I'd probably let the person who was staying in the room know I was peeking around in there.
It differs from person to person. Some family members are asking about Christmas for V, some just tell me what they are getting him, the rest will probably wait until the day before the present exchange to call me and ask.
As for my randoms, V is being watched by a friend today that hadn't watched him before. He was all smiles for her this morning. I was so happy that she would come to the house and he was having fun with her already, in my mind I was thinking if she'd want to nanny him permanently. She was a nanny a few years ago, but I don't think DH would go for it.
A fun day of stomach issues here; cue the bathroom scene from Bridesmaids. Good for my DietBet though! Stayed in bed until 11, and my husband and I are still in pajamas. Switching between football and binge watching Deadwood. Happy Saturday!

New batteries. It's probably an electrical short as a couple of the buttons don't work.

Hugo is a fine name. NMS, but I don't have a problem with it. It'd get cheers on the Baby Name board.
No. That would be snooping. And weird. What if they have things they don't want others to see?
I would like it if they did so we don't get toys I hate that MH refuses to exchange just because his dad gave it to DS (with receipt so we could exchange it if we wanted). I need to press the grandparents to do so, but I don't see anyone but my family listening.

Hope you have hot water soon. And it doesn't require a lot of work or expense.
DS has started grinding his teeth, I think working on his second top tooth. I feel bad that his teeth are bothering him, but the face he makes while doing it is too flipping cute.
DD1 is visiting the IL's this weekend. It's been nice spending time with just LO and DH bc she nevers gets mom and dad to herself.
We cleaned the basement this morning, loaded up my rav4 with things to donate and now we need to move our patio furniture inside. We got DD1's second new carseat (britax frontier child/booster seat) now we are going to move LO into the convertible britax seats we have. This will be a fun transition of always having to take LO out of her seat rather than dealing with the bucket and just lugging her around that way. It wasn't so bad with DD1 but now with 2 kids and 2 hands....
Well, my dad almost caught himself on fire trying to light the pilot light. He says it is definitely broken. :/ So, no hot water yet. I'm hoping someone can come out to fix it on a Sunday.
