...katie...????????????????????

[..katie..]

If you guys want a laugh we've got a marijuana argument going in 2nd tri lol

I heart weed. Someday when patrick is all grown up, i'm going to be one of those ridiculous old stoner hippies that dance around his fiance when he brings her/him home to meet me.

 

[ashiozz]

I like that you said "him/her" -- YAY For not imposing sexuality on our children!!

Imma have to read the pot thing.

I agree with Emerald, Tyson needs to grow up.. but you know where I stand

Men suck -.- let's all move their asses to an island (apparently my feelings about this upset my husband..)

 

[Emerald87]

Just booked our anniversary and babymoon trip Off to a B&B with a huge bath for me to "whale" around in

 

[Emerald87]

Colin had to work today. On a Saturday. And all night last night. WHEN CAN I SPEND TIME WITH MY HUSBAND?!?!?!

 

[Emerald87]

Oh - and my mother just told me she doesn't want to come to my baby shower because, and I quote:

"It's too hard to travel up for one day" (it's only a 3.5hr drive yet she'll drive 10 hours for a fucking horse race)

"I didn't have one and you survived" (WTF?!?!!?)

AND the winner:

"Babyshowers are only for rich people"


I just feel like this pregnancy is driving me further and further away from her. She's not excited for me, we barely talk like we use to (we'd call multiple times a day) and she's not supportive. She resents me because my husband works hard and brings in a good income while she struggles with her stupid horses, and somehow that's my fault.
It's strange because I got a little teary when she said she didn't want to come - but I didn't full on cry. I cry at everything at the moment. I think I've stopped caring.

 

[ashiozz]

0.o ouch. I'm sorry emerald..

How are baby showers for rich people? They're so you get free stuff, I think of them more for poor people, lmao, I loved that aspect of pregnantness.

=/ Idk what else to say, Im sorry shes unsupportive and I hope it gets better once Kaida is there.. she's probably just jealous.

Tyler grabbed a toy for the first time today. It was a monkey at mitch's moms house, this monkey has taunted him from his pack n play for 5 weeks.. finally he got the monkey.. he was proud.

 

[Emerald87]

Sweet sweet revenge. I like your kid - I hate monkies; Tyler rocks my world.

No, sadly I don't think it's going to go any better when she's here and frankly I don't know if I care anymore. I've got Colin and even his parents are all too willing to help.

I wish you guys could come to the shower!! Australia trip? LOL

 

[ashiozz]

I wish I had the money...

Now my sons video monitor is dead in his room, the power supply to the camera shorted out, seems they all have this issue, now I have no idea what Im going to do -.- I have an angelcare movement monitor which has sound but I wanted the camera.. ><

First world problems.

 

[..katie..]

I would come! maybe we can be there via skype! lol i'd have to get skype first, but yeah

 

[..katie..]

ASH! you have an amazing baby! Was it intentional??

 

[ashiozz]

yeah, I have videos of him grabbing the other toys too up on facebook He's been after that monkey since he first laid eyes on it

 

[Emerald87]

Totally legit first world problems. Can you talk to the manufacturer since they all seem to have the issue? Maybe they have a guarantee.
That reminds me! I need to organise my breathing/movement monitor. I'm also writing a baby shower wish list which is turning into a "what haven't I bought that I can buy?" list LOL.
Colin is still at work and it's 3.30pm. I'm so fucking pissed off. Not at him of course, he can't help it. Its just we had plans this weekend to go and make Kaida's first teddy at the teddy bear factory thingy at one of our shopping centres. Then shop because Target has it's massive toy sale so they've got our rocker and nappies on special. We can't go tomorrow because we're off to the baby expo; next weekend is our babymoon/anniversary, the weekend after we go to South Australia. We're suppose to be cleaning up the car to sell as well and the "nursery" is still a disgusting messy spare room.

 

[ashiozz]

You have build a bear there too!? That was my first job Tyler doesnt have a build a bear yet, I want him to be old enough to do it himself so it means more.. Mitch said he wouldnt care that I made it while pregnant

yeah, they have a year warranty and I bought mine in January of this year so it's only 6 months old so I SHOULD be able to get a damn replacement camera. Here's hoping they respond so i can get this issue resolved. Thankfully I bought it myself and it wasn't a gift.. ><

I cant remember when I started my nursery, but I know I was freaking out about it being a purple work out room for freakin ever, so I hope that gets fixed asap

I HATE ISSUES!!!

Im glad you think its a legit first world problem, i may still move him to his room this weekend once we have a board set up for his movement pad... I can try to make due without video, I might freak out though...

 

[Emerald87]

Hrm, yeh, Colin suggested we make it when she's already here and I cried. In the middle of a department store. LOL. I want to give her her first teddy when she's born so she knows she's had it since the day she was born. I want to make it for her, with our sounds and design We'll make another teddy when she's older too but in order for her to remember she'd have to be over 5 (I only remember traumatic experiences from earlier than 5).

 

[Emerald87]

As for the video - local webcam just temporarily? Mitch should be able to set it up pretty easy. That way its not distributed over the interwebs but just local wireless - just like a standard baby cam.
Have you used the movement monitor yet? Are they awesome?

 

[ashiozz]

I used it once in his bassinet but then i got really scared because it went off, but my mom was the one with him and i forgot to tell her I had it set up so when she picked him up it went off and i ran in freaked out -.- --- soo i think it works? lmao

It should be amazing, Ill let you know more once its in use.. We dont have a webcam with night vision so Im just going to wait til my issue gets fixed for video.. until then i have sound and sound worked for our parents, right?! lol

guh im a nervous wreck about moving him into his room =/

 

[..katie..]

patrick is really only in my room because I have abandoment issues, not because he has any trouble at all.

plus theres that whole "i dont wake up unless something is screaming in my ear" thing.

We cuddled in bed the past two nights. I dont like sleeping with him much, but the past two have been wonderful.

okay, confession.
So, I love patrick. yall know that, everyone knows that. but I LIKE him a whole lot more now that he smiles. and it makes me feel a bit guilty, but, you know, I cant change it. people like cheerful people more than grouch asses. And I realize that he wasn't really a grouch ass, he just didnt know how to smile...but now he does and I like it.

humph.

 

[Emerald87]

LOL you'll like him even more as he grows and interacts with his Mummy too. Like saying "Mum/Mom" and telling you he loves you.
Then he'll reach his teen "you don't exist" stage... hehe

 

[Emerald87]

I've decided on the angel care 401 one - all the bells and whistles
