We just got back from dinner at my family's house and I'm now nursing Jules to sleep. Is anyone else finding it hard to keep up with feeding solids and BM/Formula? I realized I didn't nurse her since 330/4 and now it's 9. She usually nurses ever 2-3 hours. Oh well she got potatoes and asparagus she wasn't starving.
Still watching Scandal over here and just had a cryfest over it. This so is so intense.
Im not sure about woth bf, but with formula about now she's been wanting to eat less fequently. I've always fed on demand so I don't know exact hours/ounces but I know she's drinking about the same amount throughout the day, just spread out further between each bottle.
Tell me about it @wwprestige! We grill a lot when the weather is nice. He likes seafood, mushrooms, he'll tolerate tacos but doesn't really care for them (he also doesn't like sour cream) I have got him to eat a few bites of broccoli and cheese before, and will tolerate grilled asparagus of it's borderline burnt lol.. he unfortunately likes starches a lot, and meat.
ETA @glider40 you have no idea! He really doesn't like any fruit! But he did eat some pineapple one time when we were drunk at the lake lol

Okay dang, so do yall picky eater hubby's want you to fiure out what to cook them for dinner or do they figure things out for themselves, and make it? Cause that shit would drive me nuts! It gets on my nerves that SO won't help out more with a meal plan, but I have to say, he will at least eat damn near anything that qualifies as food!

My husband thought he was a picky eater until he actually started trying the food. Turns out his family just prepared food poorly. He didn't realize vegetables came any way but boiled.
billyhorrible H just blatantly refuses. I really feel like he would like some new things if he would just have an open mind and taste them prepared different ways, like you said.
Whew! DH is back on nights this week, so-solo parenting....yay! DS was a wreck tonight at bedtime. I haven't had dinner yet and I'm debating eating cake or drinking a beer or just going to bed.

This was H. ILs boil everything - veg, meat, everything then drown it in margarine. Blech.

Hey! Been a busy weekend, and even busier Monday. Skimmed the thread but I wanted to touch on a few things.
1. DH and I used to argue alllll the time about dinner. It was a terrible point of contention, he didn't want to offer suggestions but then would turn his nose up to anything I would make because he "wouldn't feel like it on that particular day". It was infuriating. Since we started meal planning together about a year ago, it has improved things so much! We sit down on the weekends and talk about what to make and when to make it. We are so much happier!
2. LO is not crawling yet. He has never even rolled over. He can sit unassisted and will slide around on the hardwood on his butt (with one leg in front and one leg behind, kind of like a bent leg split?) and he can also make it to his tummy from sitting. But not getting up on all fours yet. If I place him on all fours, he will rock back and forth but eventually ends back up on his tummy.
3. Played CAH this weekend for the first time. It was pretty fun, but I was also pretty drunk...
I'm down for a game night! I vote Friday because aren't most of us off on Saturday? I would be lame and have to sign off early if we did Thursday. Because teaching. And dealing with children that are not my own.
budders, We have the same activity table and I caught myself singing one of the songs today. Alone. While my kids were napping.
"Busy, busy, busy, busy...."
I sing and/or get toy songs stuck in my head all day every day now. If any of them get too annoying I just plan to hide that toy for a day or two to give myself a break, lol. Add me to the list of game night attendees! It sounds like a lot of fun. FFMC: I have absolutely no idea what CAH is about.

CAH = Cards against humanity!
I should clarify, what is the game itself, exactly? I know people love it, but that's all.
Also, sorry for being such a PW tonight, but I just realized I have been upgraded to a purple ribbon finally! About a year after everyone else... Oh well. I'm happy.
