nimfalen so sorry you're going through this. Hugs.
Why is it so satisfying to pull out a giant booger out of the baby's nose? So ew.
I really want to go grocery shopping and H was supposed to be home an hour ago (he likes to go with me). I need ingredients to make supper so I can play with my new food processor. I may just start throwing random things in there. I want to play with my shiny new toy!

A just spent 10 minutes trying to lick my face. It was adorable. And then I cried because I'm so lucky she's here. Go home, emotions, you're drunk lol.
And abvintage pumping can always eat a bag of dicks. Always.
nimfalen sorry you're going through all of that. I sincerely hope your DH is serious about getting help.
Boring rambling about me ~~~~
I haven't been around much these past couple of weeks. We traveled to visit my oldest BILs family, and then DH had vacation time to use up, so he took a week off. Not a lot new happening here. Been spending way, way too much money lately. Sometimes I wish online shopping didn't exist. It's too easy!!! I'm excited about the things I've gotten for Christmas gifts for the kids though. DD and I are watching Madagascar 3, DS is napping in the swing, and DH just left for work. Hoping for a good night. DS normally is a terrible evening napper which means I'm stuck with a grumpy baby. Sleep hasn't been happening lately and I'm tired!
We got the family room painted, plus the fireplace whitewashed and the greater/ cover thing painted. We decided to paint the paneling for now, and drywall in a few years when our finances are in better shape. This was a rough money year with having a baby, buying a car, buying a house, and selling the old house. Anyway, here's a pic of the result!
Next up is DDs room, which I'm super excited for! I don't think DH is thrilled with me wanting to paint everything though, because he's the one doing the actual work.
Does anybody have ideas for a gift for a college student? We need to get a gift for DH's niece. She's an engineering major and is into healthy eating and exercise.
Hugs to everyone! Sounds like there is a lot of rough stuff going on.
I'm having a "hating pumping" thing going on too. Last week there were several times when I should've pumped but didn't because I didn't feel like it. Now I'm worried about supply because I tried pumping yesterday and today and hardly got a thing! I need to try pumping again before I leave for work because I'm worried about even having enough for while I'm away tonight.

fitbit or some other wrist fitness tracker? iPod? gift certificate to a sports store or lululemon? nutribullet (or some small blender to make smoothies and shakes)? I like your H's niece (I'm an engineer and also healthy eating/crossfit nut).

ars093s I feel like the clear doors eye brought up by someone before, but I can't remember who. Can you get a curtain for your door?
My desk is in a hallway, so my plan was to sneak into my bosses office (he's rarely there). The door goes all the way up to the high ceiling so I don't see a way to put up a curtain. His office is in the corner though so I may just put up a "go away I'm pumping" sign and face the wall while I pump. If anyone ignores it, that's on them.
It's only a temporary office space - I'm putting in a request for a real room when we move into our permanent office.
I just came back from a week away and of course the first thing DH does when he comes through the door is complain that I have stuff all over the living room. Nevermind the fact that when I got home there was so much dirt throughout the house (he does construction) that I couldn't walk barefoot and had to sweep. Lately it's been like everything we do or say annoys the shit out of the other one. Now he's sick because he never got his flu shot (which I asked him to do 15 times. Hopefully this is just a phase of hating DH but I regret coming home.
The best marriage advice I have ever got is sometimes you are going to hate your husband. You won't even want to look at him. Sometimes that can last for a long time. But if you stick with it, things get much better..... And it's true, all of it. I considered divorce for like a year. Now we are in a good time. I know we will go through more bad times. As long as it's not abusive and harmful, just know that it's actually as normal to hate your husband as it is to hate your job sometimes.
This is great advice!
Elaine rolled over for the first time today!!!!!! Of course we were in front of a physical therapist who I was telling how Elaine wasn't close to rolling over. Silly me!

What's your budget?
$25 for a family gift swap. I'm terrible at picking out gifts. I always worry the person won't like what I pick or already has the item.

Probably a safety hazard but you could get a tension rod and mount two hangers on either side of the door and just put the rod up when you need it.
Hey, at least she doesn't start with I. I can never shorten Ida's name!
"I just had a huge poopsplosion"...
I have this problem with DS1. I would be happy to prefer to my two as H and W, but then I think you all would think my husband is really weird.
someone else who had a LO with the first letter H and said something about H pooped and I got so confused til I was like ooooooh baaaaby riiiiight.
I made veggie burgers for the first time and H loved them! So good. He's super picky so it's always a win when he likes new recipes enough to go back for seconds. Was it you @piedpiper07 who recommended oh she glows?
My neighbors are TWs of the year. I have been trying to put E in her room for naps so I can get things done without waking her. But their incessant stomping makes our sliding back door shake violently in the doorframe and she wakes up every time.
I have been talking up sleeping in "your bed" all night to dd. I might have even bribed her with donuts if she sleeps there 2 nights in a row. She is falling asleep now. Fx the transfer goes smoothly without banshee screaming.
On a side note she peepee'd in the potty.
Another side note, she crys when we leave places and whines, i dont want to go home. I wonder if people think she has a bad home life. I promise she doesnt.but i am getting worried about what others may think.
