A home for EVERYONE!

[Krissy485]

Ok having a moment....I talked with my mom which helped but I told her to not to worry about me I am just pissed....and its at my husband this time. I just feel like he is not supporting me the way I need right now being a high risk pregnancy with 3 kids and my dad who is fighting cancer and with a real possibility it could be too late. josh has yet again to make it about himself getting pissed at me for forgetting something and honestly he is such a freaking baby. I don't know why I let him get to me tonight. just know that if he don't change he will be finding some where else to stay for a while. I don't have the time or patients to put up with his crap and if that means he needs to stay gone for a few extra days then that is what I will make him do. I know I am more than capable to do this on my own but I don't want to have to you know what I mean.

sorry I know it sounds like a lot of whinning and what not and he sounds like a total ass...which he is being right now just hope he realizes what he needs to do before it is too late. I love him and I know he loves me and maybe he is having just as hard time as me when it comes to my dad but he needs to open up to me. gonna have a serious talk with him when he gets home because something needs to change and its not me...

thanks for listening to yet again to one of my vents....seems like I have a lot of those lately....sigh.....

GRACE!!! YOU'RE AMAZING!!!! I'll make them this weekend!! OH YEA! I was totally going to pop on today and say Happy 20 weeks, but I forgot. HAPPY 20 WEEKS!!! As for pooping, we called Samuel the poopinator because he pooped so much, he still poops a lot! Sara poops a lot too and she's been on table foods for a long time. I think every kid is different, but with my two kids, they like to poop. I wouldn't plan on Ethan's pooping to slow down. That's me just being honest. I guess it could happen, but it hasn't with my two kids.

Krissy, I had that same swing for Sara. She loved it, then hated it. Gosh, her being that small seems so long ago. As for Josh, Ugh... I think he needs a forehead flick. Go forehead flick him and tell him that's from the creepy old man from Reno 911!!!

So, I went outside and pulled a bunch of "creeping charlie" from our back lawn only to find out the weed killer that we spray on the lawn kills it, we just need to apply it twice. I AM SO SUN BURNT!!!! I don't think I have ever been this burnt in my life!! I've been slathering coconut oil on my back hoping that it helps by tomorrow morning. Fingers crossed!

Love that hair Janelle! I didn't see the picture before for some reason. I saw Krissy's comment and wondered what she was talking about lol. She's really going to have a head full when she gets bigger.

That's great that your car seat will work with the 5 point harness so long. I know mine works through 110 lbs as a booster, but I haven't paid attention (yet) to the details of how long DD can stay as she is now.

I'm fascinated by your tire project! You must post pics when it's done! Also, I feel like a total failure reading about your awesome home projects. Number 1 home project for me...find the floor....

Sorry about the sun burn! As a red head (and the freaky paleness that comes with it), my DH wants to get me a shirt that says, "the sun is trying to kill me."

My brother had the same thing happen with his baby teeth. I can't remember what happened. His mouth met the pavement at an amusement park or something like that. His grown up teeth look really nice though.

Zoey, sorry your LO is making you wait. Hope it brings you some peace knowing she must just be getting even stronger in there! LOL at her trying to escape out your belly. I totally forgot about that feeling until you mentioned it. I think I compared it to bad alien movies where some freaky creature is about to burst out. Haha thankfully it'll be a beautiful baby.

Krissy sorry about the kiddos' cavities. Poor Avarie. Sooo sorry to hear about your dad and the additional spots. I hope it's not as bad as they fear. Oh boy I've not attempted to floss DD's teeth. I wonder if she'd do okay with one of those Reach things. Her teeth are pretty spaced out, but I wonder if I'll get a big lecture from the dentist. Oh and woop woop yay for finding the swing! Sorry about the husband stuff. (Sorry my comments are so back and forth with the good stuff and the crappy stuff...I'm typing as I read.)

Hi Aspe, sorry I don't even remember if you congratulated me yet on my pregnancy. If you told me you did, I'd believe you! Thank you! I will be really happy with either one. DH is kind of hoping for boy, but he identifies so much as a girl dad now, he'd be thrilled with another girl too. We're just so glad we get to have another. I didn't know that preemies were prone to acid reflux. Does the Zantac seem to help? I had a talker too...and let me tell you, that has not changed lol.

Grace Wheeeeee so exciting for the anatomy scan! Also, my DD pooped 3-4 (usually 4) times a day for the longest time! I guess it's healthy! So no, solids didn't slow her down. It was just uhhh more solid, lol. She was finally slowing down a little by around age 3.

AFM, I can't remember what my last update was. My Dr appt? Nothing new really since then. Wish I could get a good night's sleep. Or better, two good nights of sleep in a row. The occasional one every week or so isn't doing it for me. I can rarely nap, so it's taking its toll. Today I had a bad headache, but I finally managed to get rid of it. Still feeling kinda crappy though. Sorry for the whiny post! I'm really doing okay for the most part! I guess I'm just tired and cranky.

I've had way too many sweets today, so why am I craving brownies????

 

[eyemom]

Okay I just saw your pic and OUCHIE!!!!!

 

[HisGrace]

Janelle - That looks like it hurts.

Erin & Janelle - Thanks for keep it real with me. I needed to hear that. When I told the pediatrician how much he pooped he said it would slow down when he started eating more food and less milk. So I was expecting things to slow down. Now that I know it might not, it doesn't seem as troublesome. Erin, you're right it's heathly. and things could be much worse.

 

[Krissy485]

Erin-don't worry about going back and forth because I talk like that lately lol. I will be saying something then I go oh if I don't say this right now I will forget or will interrupt people and say sorry but I got to say this lol. but thanks hopefully we will know more today. oh and I am the super white person to! if you find that shirt let me know lol.

Janelle-make me brownies please lol....omg ouch!!!! I thought you got busy with laundry would have been safer than the sun!

grace-the pooping thing I don't remember been too long lol!

afm I feel better after a bowl of ice cream last night. I think my hormones got the best of me last night....sigh been happening a lot lately!

 

[Krissy485]

Ok my day started much better than it ended last night. Josh actually called this morning and apologized for being an ass last night. he told me his mom had woke him up like 4 hours earlier than normal and what not and was just in a pissy mood. and admitted he should not have treated me like that just because he was tired. big step for him usually I have to force an apology out of him.

so now just got a few hours before got to get out of here to go meet up and get my baby swing then my dr appointment. look for new pics of baby blake tonight! he has been supper active all morning so this could be interesting and its just me and Jamison going today soooo could be really interesting how he acts lol.

Janelle-I hope your not hurting too bad!!!

 

[Kiwiberry]

Hello ladies o/.

 

[Krissy485]

Erin- don't worry about being whiny we all do it....see my post last night.....pregnancy hormones get the best of you! and I am with you on the sleep thing! once and a while I can sleep really hard and sound but for the most part I am exhausted all the time. at least you are headed to the relief stage of tired I am just getting back into it lol.. you are finding out what baby is right?

 

[HisGrace]

Hi Kiwi. :wave:

 

[janelleybean]

Eric, I hope the headache stays away, as for the not sleeping thing, I had that when I was pregnant with Sara. When I was pregnant with Samuel it was easy because I could sleep all the time, but with Sara it sucked because I had to be up with Samuel, then I would always wake up at exactly 2 in the morning and be wide awake. I hated it. Add pain on top of that and I was miserable, but I have the easiest baby now, so lets just hope all this will pay off in an easy baby.

Grace, I hope that Ethans poopin' does slow down for you, but don't be surprised if it doesn't. It really didn't feel like it slowed down for Samuel until we potty trained him, but I'm with Krissy, I've kind of got brain fog. I don't think I was paying much attention.

Krissy, that's good Josh called and apologized and no forehead flicks were needed. I'll make you brownies, but I can't do anything until after Sara's birthday. I've got a lot to do before then and I don't have time to make brownies and send them to you right now, but I will. LOL If you haven't gotten them within a year, it means I've forgotten though. As for the laundry I got it all done yesterday along with the weeding. I'm super!

HI KIWI!!

AFM, I'm still burnt to a crisp, but I'm not in pain. I've been slathering coconut oil on and I'm feeling good. I'm so happy that it's Friday and we can start getting all of these projects going. I REALLY hope that I don't get lazy, it's suppose to be really windy this weekend, which makes staining difficult outside. Might have to move Dan's jeep outside and do it all in the garage. We have a coffee table in the living room that someone gave us from world market, it was told to me that it's real solid wood. Dan put a hot drink on it and there is a big ring on it now. I've tried everything in my power to get the ring out, but nothing is helping. I might sand the top and try to refinish it, but if it's not real wood, it might ruin it.... I think I've sanded and restained veneer before though. Oh well, we'll see.

Hope you ladies are enjoying your Friday Afternoon/Evening!!

 

[Krissy485]

hi kiwi sorry didn't see your post earlier! if you want just jump right in tell us a little about yourself and feel free to comment on anything we say!

Janelle-you lazy? whatever! you are always busy! you know I was looking at the pic of your back again and I swear your hair looks red in that....did it get sun burnt to? lol.

afm-saw the high risk doctor today....blakes kidneys are looking great so no need to go back, he is now 5lb so he gained 1 1/2lb in 4 weeks! dr said he can gain on average 3/4 a pound a week now so that means in the next six weeks he will gain an average of 4lb! he told me that considering my other chunkers plan on an 8 1/2-9lb for sure. oh and the best part of the whole visit, besides finding out he is ok...I got 3d pictures!!! he is so freaking cute and chunky! I will post those later.

right now waiting to hear how the biopsy goes for my dad hopefully good bc the rest of my day has been good....

 

[janelleybean]

Krissy, My hair changes colors from red/brown/blonde. Just depends on the lighting I guess. It looks mostly reddish and blonde when I'm in the sun. Like from our trip to tahoe, we all look like we have red hair... except for Samuel HA! My little toe head.

SO, I GOT THE RING OUT!! I red a few more things on the internet after I found out that our table is in fact covered by veneer on top. I also read that you can sand and restain and the rings will still show, glad I read that before I attempted it. THAT WOULD HAVE PISSED ME OFF!! Anyway, ethyl alcohol took it out. I tried rubbing alcohol, the isopropyl alcohol in the past, but I guess it's not the same, so since I didn't have any ethyl alcohol, I used the next best thing. Hand sanitizer! HA! It has 63%, so I gave it a whirl. It worked, you can barely see the spots now. Might have to try 100% ethyl alcohol this weekend if they start to come back. Only time will tell, but I'm happy with the result! Might come in handy if we ever get spots on our counters too, since they are wood.

 

[janelleybean]

And Krissy, I want to see those pictures!!! I LOVED getting 3D scans with both of my kids. My favorite though is from when we got one with Sara and got the "family pic" with her smiling on the screen. OMG, did Blakes eyes open during the scan? Sara opened her eyes right at the end. It's weird. I have it on video they gave me.

 

[magicwhisper]

Hi kiwi!

Im glad blakes kidneys are good. Sorry about josh being a pain in the bum!

Sleep is a laughing matter for me too im up ever hour to pee

What is it with me and stupid people mil sent a text to matt. Matt didn't reply straight away (he was sleeping) which meant 20 texts later (she sent all these texts within 20 mins) she started to ring him! He didnt answer so she rung the house phonw which woke us up and then matt looked at his phone and tokd me not to answer the house phonw because its his mum being stupid when we answered the phone eventually she told him off! she thought because he didn't answer it meant i was in heavy labour qhich panicked her

Firstly like we wouldn't tell her if something was happening! secondly we can't drive so she is our first port of call for us to get to thw hospital the daft woman!

In between people asking if i have had her (like i wouldn't tell them) and telling me im ready to pop and it will only get worse i seriously want to hide in a hole and im not even overdue yet #hides away# I

Except for the stupid people around me im great xD no labour signs though

 

[Krissy485]

zoey imagine having those same stupid people asking and saying all that when you are only 32w...that's me lol!

Janelle-happy to hear table is better. I figured that was what you were doing when you did not text back lol. and on he did not open his eyes and since tech. they are not suppose to do the 3d unless it is for a medical need, like a deformation, it was a total surprise she did it and was pretty fast, since she was "playing" around. she said she only does it for the ones she likes so I guess I am special lol...

ok the moment you all have been waiting for...there is only one that is really good and the rest you see like the cord and fluid but I still love them!

 

[Krissy485]

The tech gave me a frame size picture of the 3rd one since it was the best. I am so glad I got such a nice one!

 

[janelleybean]

HE HAS YOUR NOSE!!!! I get all teary eyed when I see ultrasound pictures because I know we're done. And I just checked my phone... no text from you. You must have sent it to your other creepy old man BFF. (((eye roll)))

Zoey, That made me laugh so hard, because before I even finished reading, I thought, "I bet MIL thinks she's in labor" A good friend of mine thought the same thing when she called the house and Samuel answered the phone and was just laughing at her and kept hanging up. LOL She SERIOUSLY thought I left Samuel home alone, but I was at the doctors office and my MIL was here with him. LOL

 

[janelleybean]

...I think in that first picture, Blake looks like Jamie.
