Thursday: randoms + UOs

[lilyelayne]

Since we haven't played that game in a while.

[lilyelayne]

Though I feel like I should have a UO to kick off the thread and I don't.
Opinions. I have none.

[mishka29]

I'm going to fall asleep at my desk. That would be awkward since I've only been back for 4 days and I'm the boss today. Lol

UO: I like liverwurst. I just spread some on a pita and ate it! Yum!

[dmorgendorffer]

My DH bought a new car last week, and sold our older one yesterday. We wont actually have the new car until Friday though, so today, for one day we have only one car. Of course today is one of the extremely rare days we actually both needed to drive - so I ended up taking my dog to the vet in an Uber this morning. He's hanging out there all day having a glucose curve done because he was diagnosed with diabetes the week before Christmas. I'm sure my other dog is home freaking out that she is alone.

UO: I feel like it has become really popular to hate the Kardashians but I honestly think its kind of impressive the brand they've been able to build essentially for doing nothing. And like any celebrity gossip, following what they are doing can be sort of entertaining... and yes, sometimes really annoying, but also entertaining.

Morning! We have 1 year pictures today eep. Hopefully she is in a good mood since her naps are off after another rough night of sleep.


She is currently in a fantastic mood asking for a cracker and then going off to eat and play. Silly girl.


And opinions that are unpopular hmm. I can't think of any at the moment.

mishka29, liverwurst?! Ugh! You're brave. I can't get past the name to even attempt to try it.

[kartish]

The word of today on my dictionary app pretty much describes my work today. I'm here but that's about it. Stupid cold. I hate my mandatory days.

So DH is home with V and he says he is more energetic today, so I'm happy to hear that. I hope those antibiotics kick his infections quickly!

[kaydee0402]

Little Man's pink eye has greatly cleared up, so yay! I don't like it when my little buddy is sick. We got his first birthday present in the mail yesterday. His birthday isn't for another month, but I can't believe how fast a year has gone. Now I want another squishy baby

[kaydee0402]

UO: I hate Valentine's Day. Worst holiday ever. The candy, the flowers, the cards, just yuck. And don't even get me started on the restaurants!

[kartish]

UO: Employee appreciation week should not consist of silly hat contests and free doughnuts. I don't care for doughnuts and I work in the back office, no one will see nor care whether I'm wearing a silly hat.

[lilyelayne]

cougarette wondering what the doc has to say about N's ears!

[pitdigger]

mishka29, count me in on the liver wurst love.

Nothing much else. I'm annoyed at DH, which at the moment is nothing new.

[GeekBeagle]

Hi all! We got back from Disney yesterday. Overall it was a good trip and DS LOVED meeting the characters. He was really good throughout everything. He did have a meltdown at check-in at the airport yesterday because he was tired as we had to wake him up early to make the airport shuttle bus...and I was flustered trying to get my stuff together and calm him down, but then a sweet woman came up to me and said "It's ok, babies cry.," which made me feel better to have support from a stranger.

Anyway, it's back to the grind today. It feels like Monday, so I guess it's exciting that it's actually Thursday.

Amen!  I hate it. Luckily I live in the New Orleans area, and most of the time it gets overshadowed by Mardi Gras so I dont even have to think about it. 

Also -- The Open heart necklace -- Looks like boobs and a butt.. 

[cloe111479]

Nothing going on around here. Busy with work, party planning, running, and everything else..

[lilyelayne]

cloe111479 the open heart necklace is so ugly.

I like the idea of a day we're reminded to tell everyone whom we love that we love them, even if we don't tell them often, or we've never told them before.

I get that's not how Valentine's Day typically comes across, but that's how I interpret it.

Do not want to go to a restaurant that week though.

[lilyelayne]

I just pulled a dime out of my kid's mouth. Where did he find a dime? Also thank goodness I saw him chewing something.

[kaydee0402]

lilyelayne, Ugh I had to do that with C yesterday! It was followed by me yelling at my husband about how he needs to be more careful with the change he keeps in his pockets. It was not the first time it had happened either.

[kaydee0402]

+1 for thinking the open heart necklace is ugly.

[aggiebug]

UO: I love the snow and cold! And I am excited about this storm hitting us tomorrow.

[aggiebug]

Add my to the list of people who dislike valentine's. H appreciates the dislike since he doesn't have to expend any effort or buy me a gift for it

[hollydfromtn]

Hi all! DH ended up getting three days in a row off, so we decided to have a little staycation. We had a date night, went to the aquarium, and played in the snow. It was a wonderful break. Nothing much going on today, though.

I also don't have any opinions at the moment. :/

[kartish]

I like the idea of Valentines day, but I don't really care for the elaborate and expensive gifts and dinners that is the norm around here. If I got nothing but flowers every year I would be happy, but then again I love getting flowers anytime. And I am cheesy and love getting the little Valentines from the kids I know.

Thanks! She said that since they do clear up in between we won't look at referring to an ENT just yet. But we will keep an eye on it, and see when the next one happens, etc. BUT I was glad that they were clear today. I was getting nervous with his fussiness the last few nights. Must be teething and the weather.

Meanwhile we got a referral to a specialist for his movement, or lack thereof. She actually wasn't too concerned and said there weren't any red flags. She liked that he's meeting everything else,
but she said it won't hurt to see someone, especially since she only gets so much time with him. She said his standing looked good (when he finally did it. He was keeping his legs curled up when we tried to get him to stand, little stinker) and that his resistence felt good. Basically they can see if he should see a PT. For now, we're still giving him lots of tummy time (when he doesn't immediately roll over) and holding him up standing next to a couch or whatnot.

[osumegs]

Another one not big on celebrating valentine's day. We are going out this year because our bday party for dd is the day before. My parents will be here and offered to babysit. We aren't turning that down!

[cougarette]

Oh I forgot to mention that he's up to 17lb 15oz! That did include clothes on, but his last weight on NYE (no clothes) was 16lb 8oz! This was after his weight was about the same at his 9 mo appt in early Dec.

Seymour butts!

I like the idea of valentine's day just not the production/hype it's become. We celebrate our dating anniversary instead, which is a week later. This year we are going to the melting pot (as usual) and then staying at a hotel to just relax for the night, kid freeeeee! Hot tub, sleeping in, and brunch here I come.

I love liver sausage. Especially if it's the white liver sausage from the polish deli mmmm. Here's my added UO to go along with it. I love liver sausage and pickle sandwiches. The pickles are a good tangy, crunchy compliment to the rich and creamy liver sausage. Add mayo and your golden. So good!

DD2 is now a standing and cruising machine. This happened in two days. Oh boy...I don't want a mobile LO yet!

[lilyelayne]

cougarette glad his ears are clear! And seeing a specialist isn't a bad thing. More info, more opinions. No red flags from his regular doctor or you, that's good
