You may think I am crazy but.........................

[MarchMommy]

how do you know when diapers are too small? dont think im dumb but i cant tell.

i never go by poundage on ANYTHING...cause something that says it will fit up to 11 lbs is still fitting her....

[1stgradeteach]

I just had to switch Sophia to size 2 diapers. The size ones were sitting really low under her belly button and just were getting harder to put on.

[MarchMommy]

ok so i may need to go up a size too then...just this morning i was noticing how tight her diapers were getting...

they grow up so fast!!
:cry:

[1stgradeteach]

I buy the bix box of diapers from Sam's....well she grew out of the 1's and we have 3 packs left so I am giving them to a friend.

Isn't it exciting to think they grow that quickly! Amazing

[sunshine]

Gavin is in size 3 diapers now. It is exciting and upsetting at the same time how fast they grow.

I know what you mean, MM, about the poundage... Gavin can still fit into some 3-6 month things that say they go up to 16 pounds and he's 19 pounds. It's weird.

[YellowRose]

Gavin is still in size 3 diapers? Shesh! Caleb really needs to stop growing soo fast! I'm having a hard time getting size 3's on him!!!

MM, I don't go by poundage either.... I just go by what fits and what doesn't!

[BBKCD]

Is this the longest running thread in the history of apa? :shock:

Ciara's in size 3 diapers...she always looks like she has a load in her diaper b/c they're big, but 2's are low-riders and she looks like she's getting a wedgy after awhile :lol:

I have a couple of pampers points if anyone wants them. Just PM me. You would just need the code, I think?

[firstone]

I too go by 'the fit'. If they look too tight around her chubby little legs, then I bump it up a size (of course when the pack is finished) :D

We are in size 3's now and she's about 14#. Technically, I think, size one's are up to 14 pounds (I think it's on the box). We've already been through 2's and are on 3's!

[MarchMommy]

i think its time to go up to the 2's after this package!! she just had a blow out and uggh....i almost puked....

does anyone have any huggies coupons they want to give away?

ill take em....

[newmami]

We just changed Danielle to size 4 diapers.... we change them when they look too small for her, or when it takes an extra effort to tape them!!! :lol:

[DIVADLX]

I find that diapers are sized too small... Stella moved to size 2 far before she was the weight they said... when she's done with these. she'll move up to 3's!

So I had a mover come and estimate our move for us yesterday... apparently we have over 1500 pounds (over 30 boxes) in books alone. So today, with a heavy heart, I will be going back through them to try to part with ones I absolutely don't *have* to have.

*tear*

[YellowRose]

does anyone have any huggies coupons they want to give away?

ill take em....


I *think* I might have some.... I'll have to look, but I'll let you know one way or the other!

1500 lbs in books? :shock: Wow!! Do you have your own library? I'm assuming you like to read?

[Love2Bamommy]

Kelsey is still in a size 2. Haven't made the move to a size 3 yet but I'm sure it'll be soon. :(

[Jai]

Jennifer, 1500lbs in books???? WOWZERS!!! Sounds a lot like my MIL. She has sooooooo many of her books stored in pir attic. Plus shes got a ton at her own house.

Peyton is still in size 1's. I actually had to use about 3 packs of NB diapers when she was born. Marissa wore the newborn diapers in the hospital, but as soon as we got home had to switch her size 1's.

[YellowRose]

If I remember correctly, I think we only used one package of NB diapers for Caleb.

[DIVADLX]

Oh my goodness Aly you have no idea! I love to read! And I love beautiful books... Stella already has 2 bookcases full... and I have only bought about 15 books for since she was born, knowing we would move in the coming year...

Hello, my name is Jennifer and I am a bookaholic.

[Crunchymomto3]

Ella is in size 3's and Haley is in size 5's.

I have about that many books too Diva!! Every room in my house has at least 3 5 story bookcases filled to the rim!!

[DIVADLX]

Come on Jenny you can say it...

Hello my name is Jenny and I too am a bookaholic.

[BBKCD]

:lol: :D :lol:
Will I feel better once I admit I have a problem?!?!? ((sigh))...
Ok, My name is Sherry, and I'm a book-a-holic. I'm surprised my friends and family (especially the ones who've helped me move) have never staged an intervention....I have boxes and boxes and boxes of books that are now dusty in storage. I have turned over a new leaf, and am now utilizing my library card.

[DIVADLX]

LOVE the pun Sherry... turned over a new *leaf*

Har har...

I love the library too!!! Which reminds me... I have some books I need to return there...

AH! Where does the insanity end!!!

[without]

Morgan and I go to the Lib every Saturday and Morgan gets to check out one book that we use as her bed time book and I always pick up 3 or 4 movies and a couple of books. I don't know what I would do with out the Lib! I know I wouldn't be watching the new movies because I hate paying to rent them!

[sunshine]

I need to stop paying for movies and books and go to the library myself!

I pm'd you about the Pamper points, Sherry! And yes, I think this is the longest thread ever.... oh wait... there was that one about anal sex!!!!! :lol:

[HollyJo]

You can take babies to the library??? I didn't know that. I guess I am just worried Caiden will decide to fuss or cry while I'm there an a mean librarian will come over and go "SHHHHHHH!!!!" right in my face.

We need to get out more. The library sounds like a great place. Thanks for the tip. Thank goodness for the nonsense thread. ;)

[Crunchymomto3]

Our library has a story time for babies beginning at 6 weeks. They seperate them by ages, so 0-12 months, and then 12-24 months, etc...

I've been taking my girls since they were born!!

[firstone]

ohh, I should check out the library too. I wonder if there are any good movies to rent? Or books to read??

[without]

Morgan loves going! She and the head librarian have become good friends. Morgan has fussed a few times and no one seems to mind. If she got to bad I would leave but she has fun because there is so much for her to look at and so many people to watch.

Here is what I have checked out right now

Book
Boundaries in Marriage
An otter book (can't remember the name its Morgan’s)

Movies
(best thing about the movies is you get to keep them for 2 weeks when you rent them you only get them one night! and its free!)
Chicken Little
Yours mine and ours
Rumor has it

What do you all have?

LOL this tread may never end! Girls its really ok to let it die :oops:

[sunshine]

:lol: NO, it's not ok to let it die... I LIKE IT! :D

[newmami]

If I take Danielle to the library, she will end up munching on the books... :shock: she broke a page of one that I got for her... so I am back to the sturdy books
We have TONS of books too, DH bought those for his son, but he is too old for that... the only thing is I like to read to Danielle in Spanish, she gives me a funny look if I talk to her in English, and I don't have that many in Spanish....
Dh should be reading to her in English, but he is too busy with his toys....

I will make sure I take her to story time at some point... right now we are about to move, so everything is packed or waiting to be packed, no spare time!!!

[HollyJo]

How neat. C and I are totally going to the library now. I wish I had known about this sooner!

I like this thread too! It's the perfect place to talk about random stuff w/o having to start a whole new thread.

It's like cawfee tawk with all the girls. :lol:

[without]

We have story time on Wed. at 1 but they wont let Morgan go. :cry: They say she is to small.

[HollyJo]

I didn't know you were moving Claudia!! Are you changing cities or just getting a new place? Are you getting the house you've been wanting for so long??

[BBKCD]

I have James Patterson's "Mary, Mary", and Mary Higgins Clark's "Two Little Girls In Blue" checked out, both of which are due back tommorrow. Our last trip to the library was quick--Ciara was fine until someone got in her space :lol: After that, I had to hold her to keep her quiet. Albeit, I didn't get a chance to check out the videos and DVD's...Oh, and she has lots of books of her own, so I don't take them out from the library...I have a thing about how sanitary that might be :shock: and she likes to eat them, too :lol:

[YellowRose]

There's a great big library here... about a 5 min car ride from our house. For a while Dh was borrowing movies from there like crazy! It's great because they're free. The only problem we had was our DVD player wouldn't play the DVDs. We have a VERY picky DVD player.. it's quite annoying actually. But, the lib puts this alarm thing ON the DVD and for some odd reason it wont play in our dvd player. We were borrowing the VHS's but... they told Dh that they were getting rid of all the VHS and only using DVDs... soooo.... we can't get movies from there any more. *sigh* It really beats PAYING to watch them.

I wish Caleb and I could walk to the lib... it'd be nice to check out books, but it's too far of a walk... and I don't have a car while Dh is at work! Ah well!

[MarchMommy]

i just read the Da vInci Code....finished it last night....

[firstone]

i just read the Da vInci Code....finished it last night....

Oh yeah, read it too. Looking forward to the movie.

[LuMo]

You can take babies to the library???

The libraries here have story times for all ages, starting with one for 'birth to 24 months' which is really a huuuuuge age group. I used to take Lucy to that. Now she goes to the 'Twos and Threes" which includes a craft. It's great, and it's free! We take Truman and he gets to play with the musical instruments and stuff too. I don't take him to the baby one because I think Lucy would be way bored. When we go to the small branch library on the end of our block, about once a week, the ladies that work there just take over Truman, cooing and speaking motherese and he just eats it up!

Is it weird that Truman has been in size 3 diapers since 3 months old??? My boy just has a bit bootie I guess? :)

[newmami]

I read Davinci Code and then watched the movie.... loved the book, not so sure about the movie.... books are always better

Hollyjo, no we did not bought a house, they are still expensive crap, but I told DH I cannot live there anymore, so we are OUT!!!

[MarchMommy]

we are going to see the movie on sunday...im excited, but im sure it wont be as good as the book...i devoured the book!

has anyone read the prequel to Da Vinci Code?? its called Angels and Demons

[HollyJo]

I enjoyed Da Vinci Code. I thought it was entertaining! Haven't seen the movie though.

I read some reviews online the A & D is basically just like DV Code and to not bother with it. But to each his own!

[sunshine]

MM, pm me your address and I'll start sending you the huggies coupons I get.

Claudia, Glad you are moving, but sorry you aren't buying the house you long for... maybe soon. Hang in there.

[MarchMommy]

yay debbie!! thanks!!!!

address coming at you!!!

[Crunchymomto3]

I thought Angels & Demons was WAY better than the DaVinci Code!! I have a copy of A&D (softcover) if anyone wants to read it. We can start cycling it through the group and just keep mailing it to each other and then when everyone is finished, just mail it back to me :) I'll put my name and address inside the cover.

[firstone]

Oh really, you liked Angels and Demons better? I have it on CD (book on tape), but I haven't done it yet. Now I'm looking forward to it.

[geebee]

I gotta get in on this post!

I also liked A&D alot better than DV Code. It was more exciting I thought, plus I enjoyed reading about the Masons.

Since we're onto books, anyone read "B!tch in the House"? It's a collection of true stories based on women's experiences being a wife, mother, lover, etc. We just read it recently in my book club and I thought it was a lot of fun.

[Crunchymomto3]

What's the title?? APA blanked out the first word...

Also, for my bookclub this month we picked Goodnight Nobody by Jennifer Weiner. Anyone read that???

[geebee]

uh oh, I hope i didn't get in too much trouble. The title's "(girl dog) in the house" about women's experiences on motherhood, wifehood(?), etc. I thought it was a fun read.

I read 1 Jennifer Weiner book. I named Lia after one of her characters!

[newmami]

Jennifer Weiner is hysterical!!!
Ok with all this recommendations, I need to go to Borders and use those coupons!! :wink:

[DIVADLX]

You read Little Earthquakes right? I think I remember a Lia in that one....

Since having Stella and graduating... if it doesn't have the words "baby" "Mother" "Nursing" or "caring" in the title, I haven't read it.

I REALLY miss reading!

[HollyJo]

Since having Stella and graduating... if it doesn't have the words "baby" "Mother" "Nursing" or "caring" in the title, I haven't read it.

SAME here! We should start a bookclub! :P

[LuMo]

I'd love to have an excuse to read a grown-up book. :)

I think Jennifer Weiner was on the Today Show yesterday? She wrote a book about fat women. If it's the same person. I remember some lady whose last name was Weiner, because deep inside of me I still chuckle at that stuff like I'm 12 years old.

[Crunchymomto3]

Little Earthquakes was good. I also liked Good in Bed. Didn't care for In Her Shoes.

We should start a bookclub...how about we read what I'll be reading for my bookclub :lol: I don't think I can handle more than 1 book at a time right now :wink:

[DIVADLX]

Might be the same author - she always tends to have at least one larger-than-the-average-bear woman in her books (and she always tends to be the best character and have a really terrific guy - about time!) Part of the reason why I like her...

Book club - perhaps after I get off this rock! Otherwise this book club will cost me an arm and a leg in shipping!

Oh yeah, and my lack of reading isn't due to not having books - its that my every waking hour seems to be filled with something that is not reading. Once we get moved and settled, maybe I'll find the time!

[geebee]

You read Little Earthquakes right? I think I remember a Lia in that one....

Actually I didn't read the book. When I was pregnant I was browsing in a Borders and came upon Little Earthquakes. Took a quick look at the book jacket and saw the name Lia. It was like a revelation that our daughter's name would be Lia.

Re bookclub, I'd love to do it!

[firstone]

Book Club sounds good. I did like In Her Shoes.

[LuMo]

Ok but we need ground rules for the book selection! :lol: Nothing involving children being sick or dying (I cried my eyes out for a week while reading "My Sister's Keeper" by Jodi Picoult, of course I was pregnant at the time, but still!!!!) and nothing with Fabio on the cover. :D

Anyone else have restrictions they want to throw out there? :)

Personally, there are lots of OLD books (Hemingway, a few Steinbecks) that I never was required to read in school but would love to.

[HollyJo]

My only requirement would be nothing with a bunch of profanity or tons of sex. Yeah, I'm the boring one! :lol:

I had to go back and edit to say that it's not like I think you would all pick a book like that anyways. :P

[HollyJo]

Okay, time out... I have to gush.

CAIDEN FINALLY ROLLED OVER TODAY from his back to tummy. This kid has been doing from tummy to back since he was two weeks old. He just couldn't figure out the whole back to tummy thing -- until today.

The first time he looked pretty surprised. The second time he thought it was pretty cool. The third time he was ready for a nap. :lol:

Okay, time in.

[Crunchymomto3]

I like southern chick lit, and religious fiction (is that an oxy-moron??)

I've a pretty avid reader (or I guess I was before 2 kids) so I've read most of the classics, etc.,

But...I'm up for anything :)

[Jai]

I just have to say I LOVE this thread!!! :D

[HollyJo]

Okay, now I really want to do a bookclub now! I love to read and need something new. When I go to the bookstore/library I always get book anxiety because there are so many choices and I don't know what to pick. Plus, I don't want to pick a bum one because I'll still have to read it. I have this thing where I can't quit a book I've already started. :P

[LuMo]

Holly.

Book anxiety?

:lol:

You seriously need to get to the library, girl!!!!

I'm with you on the profanity/sex thing. I think the sex thing would be covered by my Fabio rule though. :P You know we do all cuss like a bunch of sailors. :D

Has anyone read anything by Eudora Welty? My grandma's book club is reading one of her books.

[Crunchymomto3]

Has anyone read anything by Eudora Welty? My grandma's book club is reading one of her books.


I LOVE Eudora Welty!!! I had to read a bunch of her stuff while I was an undergrad!! She's a classic when it comes to southern female lit!!

[geebee]

I've never heard of her, but I'm up for anything! The stuff we're reading in my bookclub now is kinda boring...

[Crunchymomto3]

[stash]

Are you ladies starting a book club? I happened to peek at this thread and...

If you are, I'm in!

[Peanut's Mom]

I'm want to be in on the book club too. The Robber Bridegroom looks like a good pick to me but I'm up for anything.

CAIDEN FINALLY ROLLED OVER TODAY from his back to tummy.

YAY for Caiden!!! :D

[HollyJo]

Thanks Crystal!

I'm not familiar with any of her books so it doesn't matter to me which one we read. :D

[Crunchymomto3]

Stash...

Yep...it looks like a bookclub is forming :) LuMo suggested Eudora Welty so we're going to read something by her. Any input as to which of her novels we read?

The Robber Bridegroom was suggested and it sounds good.

The Robber Bridegroom (1946), Welty’s fairy tale set on the Natchez Trace, spins the story of a highwayman, Jamie Lockhart, who masquerades part-time as a gentleman. He kidnaps a planter’s daughter, and she falls in love with the thief, whom her father knows only as a gentleman. The tale has plenty of indigenous horrors taken from the history of the Trace—wild creatures and men of various states of savagery—but Welty cut her teeth on Grimm’s Fairy Tales, so it should come as no surprise that she injects some of Grimm’s gothic horror into the tale as well. The Robber Bridegroom contains all of the virtues of a good fairy tale: mystery, magic, poetic description, and in general a sense of the inexplicable.

[newmami]

YAY Caiden!!!

Add me to the bookclub, I love to read at my lunch hour.... but I have never been on one, so I need the rules :oops:

[Crunchymomto3]

I've been in bookclubs since I was in elementary school and there aren't really any rules persay. We usually just pick a date to have the book finished by and then we meet to discuss it. I usually write up a few questions to either facilitate a conversation or keep it going. I've never been in an online book club before so maybe there is a different format for that??

[DIVADLX]

Does this mean I get to buy more books?

[HollyJo]

Woohoo! When do we begin? :D

[stash]

I'm in! Jenny, do you want to start a new thread and I'll stick it?

[MarchMommy]

a bookclub? i barely have time to shave my legs much less read!!!!!

i just finished the DaVinci Code after 3 months of trying to get thru it :D

[stash]

a bookclub? i barely have time to shave my legs much less read!!!!!

Well then stop shaving your legs, girl! :lol:

[sunshine]

:lol: :lol: I'm in the same position, MM!
I haven't read a book since DS has been born. I read a chapter or two of the "What to Expect in the First Year"... but the last time I read that was..."Month 6".... geez.... just no time! :D

You ladies have fun in the book club though!

[Della21]

I'd like to be a part of it, but I spend too much time on here! :lol:

[sunshine]

I forgot to say YAY for CAIDEN!!!!!!! :D

[without]

Wahoo! Caiden!

[quote]i barely have time to shave my legs much less read!!!!! [quote]

I shaved my legs last night first time in who knows when. Today is DH's B-day and thats what I am giving him for his b-day. LOL A night of sleep with out my stickers poking him. :oops: :lol:

[Della21]

I shaved my legs last week, and thought, "Now that I tackled the big job, it will be easier to maintain." Now I'm thinking, "I'm just not going to wear shorts." :roll: I don't want to shave my legs. What's the point anymore? :lol:

[MarchMommy]

oh i know...i can barely wash my hair anymore.......

i love shaved legs...so does DH!!! wink wink

[Bean]

I've been blessed with soft, white leg hair, so if I don't shave for a while it's not that big of a deal. They are getting kind of long, though... it might be time.

[without]

mine are black and thick! Ugh no hidding mine. :cry:

[sunshine]

My leg hair is blonde and soft too, but there's nothing like a soft and silky newly shaven leg! :lol:

[martiniqus]

I shave my legs every time I take a shower! I just love silky smooth legs and if I get out of the shower without shaving, I feel like I am not clean! It's weird because my hair is light and soft too!

[Della21]

My leg hair is blonde and soft too, but every time I've ever been wearing a pair of shorts with unshaved legs (it doesn't matter that no one else would notice because the hair is so short) my mom and sisters will inevitably touch my leg and say, "Ew! You need to shave." :roll:

[Crunchymomto3]

I have baby fine blond leg hair too...I'm seriously thinking about just stopping shaving all together. Most of my friends don't shave, so I am the odd-ball that does. But now, I can't even reach my legs over the belly, and dh doesn't mind...so the ball is in my court!!

[MarchMommy]

i may not shave my legs every day, but i do take a razor to the "pits" each day :D

[Della21]

Oh, for sure!! It's quicker to do the pits, and if you don't shave the pits, the stink holds on to the hair. :|

[stash]

I only shave in the summer, and right now, just from the knees down since I don't wear anything that bears these elephant thighs.

I have bangs on my knees. I'm a REALLY HAIRY person :P

And yes Della, I shave the pits primarily because of stank, not vanity!

[Della21]

And yes Della, I shave the pits primarily because of stank, not vanity!

Not me Stacy! I like to braid my pit hair and put brightly colored ribbons in it out of pure vanity!! :lol:

[MarchMommy]

you too della!!???

just kidding....yea i dont want to be walking about with stank pits...i mean you pick up the baby and whhhhheeewwww...... :oops:

the pit shave is a precaution in case i forget to put on my deoderant...which happens often.... :x

[YellowRose]

You know, Italian women don't shave their pits?!?! :lol: It's actually quite gross!!! A lot of the younger girls do, but the older ladies don't. Shortly after we moved there, we were at the open air market buying veggies and this older lady had on a sleeveless shirt and lifted up her arm, I'm not kidding that woman had a BUSH under there. :shock: Oh it was sooo gross!!!!

[DIVADLX]

Bangs on your knees!!!! LOLOLO

I married a european who's mother refuses to wear deoderant and smells worse than a turkish dock worker... I am officially exempt from shaving my legs.

[MarchMommy]

ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

[DIVADLX]

WORSE Marchmommy... she thinks her copious amounts of perfume will cover the stench.

Seriously, we were in Turkey and we were on a bus with a bunch of Turkish men who had been sweating all day doing manual labor and she smelled worse than them.

Can't ride in the car with the windows up. OH and add to the putridity the fact that she is a chain smoker... so she stinks of BO, Perfume and stale cigarette.

(wretch. gag.)

[MarchMommy]

hahahahahah.........bet you love it when she visits

[YellowRose]

A lot Italian women are the same way, Diva! No deodorant, hairy armpits. Bleck! It's gross!!!

[BBKCD]

Ugh :o
Ok, so what's the longest anyone's went without shaving their legs?
I'd say a week, at the end of my last pg, and the only reason I did then was in honor of my OB and weekly appts :D

[Crunchymomto3]

I went a year...gasp!! I was a foreign exchange student in Germany and NO one shaved and I totally immersed myself in their culture, so I didn't shave either. Now I only shave my calves...the knees up are nice and soft with light blond hair...and it's so thin you can't even tell!!

[without]

I have gone two months! Right after having Morgan I had surgery on my back and had to stay face down in bed for two weeks. The only time I could get on my side was to b/feed and that hurt so bad! I took another month just to be able to bend over to shave.

[geebee]

I am a lucky girl and don't ever need to shave! My leg hair is super fine and really sparse. Shaving it would only make it more thick.

But when I was pregnant, I really needed to shave because I became extremely hairy! Thing was, couldn't bend over that far down to save my life....

[MarchMommy]

its funny but when i was preggo my hair growth slooowed way down!!!
which i was glad for...but still...it was strange

[without]

my hair growth slowed too! Also my skin looked so good! Now its back to zit sity! :cry:

[MarchMommy]

yea my skin looked awesome too...

and not to rub it in, but it still kinda does.... :roll:

[without]

I think its the birth control that mess my skin up! Also I drank tons of water when I was preggo and now I don't drink any at all. :oops:

[MarchMommy]

i try to drink lots of water, but somedays its so hard cause i just dont want it!! i wish there was a water pill you could take

[newmami]

Ha ha MM!!! sign me for the water pill!!
I am making an effort to drink more water, but that means more trips to the bathroom, and I barely have time to do that!! :shock:

You know that the prenatals are the reason why your hair, skin and nails are so pretty when you are PG, right?? my skin & hair are Ok, but my nails are so soft and break if you look at them :?

[YellowRose]

The hair growth on my legs slowed way down when I was preggo too. I barely even had to shave my legs... I only did maybe 3 times a month, it was great!!!

Oh, and sign me up for the water pill too. I don't drink nearly enough... but I'm trying!

[MarchMommy]

well maybe thats why my hair and nails and skin look great still....im still on prenatals for BFding!!

[HollyJo]

I'm an up to the knee shaver too. I have barely any hair above my knee... and I what I do have is light and fine. It's great!

I shave my pits daily though. I don't think I could skip that part.

Do your husbands shave their faces daily? My husband always whines about how he wishes he had legs to shave instead of his face. I think we have it easier too.

[YellowRose]

Yep, my Dh shaves every day...except Saturday. He says his face needs a "break". I'm glad though... I don't like facial hair, at least on my Dh, he looks much better (and younger) without it!

[Jai]

Yup, Im a "knee shaver" too. When my mom taught me how to shave she told me to stop at the knee so thats what Ive been used to. :)

I wish I could shave my legs every day. I sometimes barely have a chance to shower. And I cant shave my legs in the shower. I cant balance myself. LOL. BUT I ALWAYS shave my pitts daily. Lord help us all if I dont. I get so mad at DH. He doesnt even have to use deodarent but I have to re apply like 4 times a day.

DH doenst shave his face daily. He does like once a week. His hair doesnt grow very fast. He only has like 3 chest hairs. :D

[YellowRose]

I need to shave now!! I'm all prickly!!! :oops: I hate shaving in the shower too soo Dh bought me an electric razor for Christmas! I love it!!! I can shave sitting down... any where! I can sit Caleb down and let him play and shave my legs! It's great!

[sunshine]

I'm an "all the way up" shaver. :lol: DH doesn't shave daily... though I wish he would... he likes to sport that rough look (I hate it). I shave pits daily in the shower too. Can't stand it if I don't... I'd be the biggest puss of a man, I swear... I tell DH all the time "How can you STAND to have all that hair under your arms AND something hanging in between your legs?" I'm so glad I'm a woman! :lol: :lol:

[without]

"How can you STAND to have all that hair under your arms AND something hanging in between your legs?

Oh my gosh!!!! I am laughing so hard good thing I am the only one in the office right now.

DH saves 2 times a week he also likes the mountain man look (yucky doo!) but if he saves more than that it tears his face up bad. I think some one just needs to teach that boy the right way to shave.

[MarchMommy]

me too...i shave all the way up!!! 8)

DH shaves almost everyday...but i like a little bit of stubble!!

[Jai]

OMG Debbie, that was too funny!! :lol: :lol:

[BBKCD]

I shave all the way up, too. My mom warned me not to, way back when, and I guess she was right. Once you start, it's an on-going thing. I shave my forearms, too. Same deal....once you start, you have to keep it up, b/c who wants stubble on their forearms?
The older I get, the HAIRIER I get....((sigh))...Random facial hair( I found one under my chin, and it was so long at that point, it was curling!), something of a mustache(yuck!)....Oh, so I used a hair remover on my upper lip, and burned my skin. I guess it's all about plucking, b/c the scab I was sporting over my upper lip was impossible to conceal!

[without]

Ugh! I now have to have my lip waxed when I have my eye brows done! I am an every other week wax girl! That hurts the pocket book! I have to budget 60 dollars a month to remove unwanted hair! I am thinking of buying a home kit and trying to wax my own legs. It can hurt any more than the lip and eye brows!

[BBKCD]

I have a waxing kit, but I'm afraid to use it! :(

[sunshine]

Anyone ever tried or thought about doing alase?

[without]

I don't know what that is but I will be looking it up! I am looking for any thing that would get this air off and not cost an arm and a leg. I was going to do Electrolysis (sp?) but it was going to be round 500 dollars a round and they said I would need about 3 rounds and that after a few years some of the hairs would start to come back. Ugh! Whats the point of that. I also hear it hurst. My MIL had her make up tattooed on and she said that electrolysis is worse!

[DIVADLX]

When i do shave, its just to the knee - my thigh hairs are so soft and sparse, they practically don't exist.

i used to have my brows waxed... i dn't have a waxer I trust here though. My brows are some pretty bushy mamas if not kept control of!

[Love2Bamommy]

Ok, this is REALLY bad but I Nair everything...umm....and I do mean everything. It burns like heck but goes away pretty quickly and I'm nice and smooth. :wink:

[MarchMommy]

yea i get eyebrows waxed every two weeks. it makes me nauseous to pluck them!!

i hated nair...it like fried my skin...but its so convienent

[without]

I wish nair worked for me! It burns the heck out of my skin but leaves the hair. :evil:

[MarchMommy]

nair is NO FAIR!!!!

[HollyJo]

I've never used Nair... how exactly is it supposed to work???

[Jai]

I used it on my brother once about a month ago. He was going out on a date and didnt want to be as hairy as he usually is. :D

Anyways, he said it burned like HE77!! The hair came off great but he was blotchy after. He said he wont use it agiain. :P

[1stgradeteach]

I've used Veet on places my DH's back before! It didn't sting and the hair comes off really easy.

[Della21]

I'm too scared to use Nair. I've used it once before with no problems, but it says on the bottle not to rub it in, and I'm scared I will on accident. :shock:

Anybody ever used the bladeless razor kit thing with the foam stuff? Is it the same thing as Nair, in the chemicals it uses?

[Della21]

lol, I posted that right after you posted, Joni. :lol:

[rayven]

Joni- How long does the Veet last? I'm so tired of shaving every day.

[1stgradeteach]

I've never used in on my legs or anything, just DH's back. I'd say not too much longer than shaving.

Look on the bright side, winter is only about 4 months away and then you can wear long jeans/pants and who cares if you shave.

I hate shaving and in the winter am known for having hairy legs most of the time! DH gets used to it!

[Jai]

This is off topic of the shaving I just wanted to share that Marissas kickball leauge starts next Wed. Shes on a team with two of her favorite cousins. Shes soooo excited. They get a t-shirt and a kickball!! She has no idea what kickball even is. She just knows she gets to kick a ball. LOL

[1stgradeteach]

Jai- you will have so much fun watching her. When my little sister (who is 13 years younger than me) was playing tee ball it was hilarious. She would be thrilled if the ball "went to the green" meaning the outfield.

[MarchMommy]

i loved kickball as a kid!! thats one thing that i really have fond memories of!! i used to love catching it in the air or making a really good kick!!

[HollyJo]

Kickball is so much fun! I remember I even loved it when we got to play it in PE in high school. I hope Marissa has a BLAST! :D

[1stgradeteach]

Hey, we started our own "RANDOM" thread right here inside the Mom's thread! :D

[HollyJo]

I like how all the moms are looking our for each other so that nobody ends up the thread killer. :lol:

[1stgradeteach]

Uh oh! Who wants to be the thread killer? :?

[Jai]

LOL!!

I wonder how long a thread can go on. Like if theres a page limit. This is a CRAZY LONG thread. :)

[BubbleGum]

This is longer than the anal sex thread. I thought that one was going to go on for ever!

[Della21]

If you like I'll be the thread killer. But I think, if the thread goes on too long, admin will close it and make a continuance thread. :? I think that's what they used to do on the old board. There were three members that I KNOW most of you never talked to or don't remember, from back when I first joined who had a thread 30 pages long. They did that because there were so few members and that way they could keep talking without making new threads. And admin stepped in to say they could make a new thread, but that one had to be closed.

So this is the longest anyone REMEMBERS, but not the longest in the history of APA. :lol:

[Bean]

Well, I guess we should keep it going to see how long a thread can get before someone closes it down.

[KCM0430]

# 1 thread killer here!!!!!

watch nobody will post after me!!!!!!!!! :cry: :cry: :cry:

oh well!!! :D

[Jai]

I agree, keep it going to see how long it can go on!! :D

[MarchMommy]

da da dannnnnnnn


am i the thread killer????? :evil:

[stash]

Nah, we won't close it. Gab away. ;)

[without]

I would think it would be better to have one loooonnnngggg post then several little post! I hope they don't close them when they get to long because after a few months my diet post will be pretty long and I like to go back and remind myself how far I have come by rereading my old food posts. :lol:

[newmami]

I hope this thread keeps going on!! I really love it, is like a conversation with your friends... all this weird topics keep popping up, and no one minds if we change subjects!!

[MarchMommy]

nope...i like it too....

so what shall we talk about next???

[newmami]

I just realized I am wearing BROWN shoes with Black pants!!! :roll:
I have the same shoes in brown & black, so obviously I got the wrong ones!! I don't want to get out of my office!!!!!!!!

[without]

I hate it when I show up with blue knee highs on when I am wearing black slacks!

[MarchMommy]

i wear gauchos and flip flops to work...and t-shirts

are ya jealous!!???!!??

[Jai]

I WEAR p.j's to work. Are you all jealous?? j/k :D

I "work" at home :)

[without]

I never know what to wear to work. Some one needes to turn me in on What not to Wear because when it comes to fashion for biger girls I have no clue. I just try to hide my boddy! :oops:

[MarchMommy]

I WEAR p.j's to work. Are you all jealous?? j/k :D

I "work" at home :)

YES!!!!!!! i am!!!

[newmami]

Pam, you can never go wrong with slacks and shirts, try not to use very big & loose clothes, they will make you look bigger. Pants that fit you right and shirts that have some shape to them are very flattering

Lane Bryant has the cutest clothes!!!

If not, I will call what not to wear for your makeover!!!

[without]

Claudia,
Thanks! Let me tell you it gets bad some times! I know its bad when my sister looks at me with "the face" and asks if thats what I am wearing and my dad says "Pam every old barn needs a little paint" meaning go put on some make up! LOL

[YellowRose]

Is it hot where you all are at too??? This weekend a heat wave is coming though. UGH! It's supposed to be in the upper 90's with heat indices between 100-105. :shock: I HATE HATE HATE this hot weather!!! We've had such beautiful weather up until now.. mid 70's with an occasional 80 degree day. I was loving it. I just hope this doesn't last too long. I'm completely miserable when it's so hot.

[DIVADLX]

Actually it has been beautiful here. May was a killer - hot and humid... but lately its been sunny and breezy. Making it much more difficult for me to leave.

Oh but I will.

I've sold almost everything we own. We are now sleeping on the floor on a futon cushion. Feels kind of good to purge all those things we've been hanging onto for so long.

[Bean]

I've sold almost everything we own. We are now sleeping on the floor on a futon cushion. Feels kind of good to purge all those things we've been hanging onto for so long.

I need to do that so bad. We have so much stuff we just don't need!!

[kel]

ALy- What in the world?!? it is going to be SOOOOOOOOOOOO hot!! We are suppossed to go to a bbque tomorrow with a pool! UGH!!!!!!!!!! What is the heat advisory for babies over six months?!? I am wondering if we should just cancel even though he'll be in the water?!?

[MarchMommy]

its so freaking humid here its unbearable....thank God im not preggo!!!

[YellowRose]

I don't know, Kel. I think I would cancel... but I am also EXTREMELY miserable in the heat. I just watched the weather and it's going to be HOT and humid tomorrow. Heat indices are supposed to be between 100 and 110. :shock: I am definately staying inside with the ac on ALL day tomorrow!!! I sure hope this heat wave doesn't last long.

[HollyJo]

UGH! You poor girls! I feel so bad for you. I despise humidity. It makes me very cranky. :P

[MarchMommy]

yea the humidity is the WORST part of the summer!! last night i was taking the dogs out and i was dying cause it was so hot and it was 11 pm!!!

[Della21]

I went to the store yesterday and it was so hot that when I got in our car and sat on the leather I felt like my back and my butt were being cooked. We had the air on in the car, and it was still hot in the car when we got to the store! :shock: Nothing felt so good as when we walked into the airconditioning at Best Buy. There was such a tempreture change you could feel the air before you walked through the door!!

[MarchMommy]

i know....a/c is sooo good right now because of how hot it is....

[Jai]

I HATE the hot weather!! Our A/C wasnt working at the beginning of the summer. It was on, but not putting out cold air. DH called a friend of his who puts in A/Cs for a living. Thank God!!! It was like 97 here today and it supposed to be in the very high 90's until I think Wednesday!!

I say the same thing. Thank Goodness Im not preggo!!!

[HollyJo]

I have A/C envy! We don't have one.

Of course, it doesn't get quite as hot here & we don't have to deal with the humidty...

But on those hot days we are still dying. Ugh!

[DIVADLX]

I've lived without AC for 7 years now... I can't even imagine life with it. But then again I run cold... I have three blankets on me when everone else is sweating...

[MarchMommy]

i actually would be OK without the A/C if it wasnt so danged humid here!!

holly jo...where are you from?

[Crunchymomto3]

I would simply die without AC. Can't even fathom what life would be like without it....simply dreadful I'd imagine. Honestly, I think it should be against the law in Florida to have a house without AC :lol:

[newmami]

Ugh!!! this weekend was so hot here the heat index was over 100!!
I am so tired of this weather I want to cry.... the ladies who are pregnant and dealing with this horrible weather are my heroes!!

[geebee]

Code Orange here in DC -- I'm just glad it's for weather, and not terror threat !!!

I am just FREEZING my butt off in my office as usual. Then I have to walk 6 blocks for my ride home in 100+ degree weather this afternoon.

AAAAGGGHHHHH

[YellowRose]

AGGGGHHH!!!! It is SOOO hot here!!! Yesterday it got up to 106* PLUS it was humid!!! Today is supposed to be the same, it's 9:00 and already 85. I absolutely hate this weather!!!

But... I've lived in hotter places, without ac. When we first moved to Sicily, we moved there in the summer, we lived in a house without ac. We lived in an Italian house and italians don't have central air. Anyway, the average temp. during the summer is at least 100. The highest it got while we were there was 120..... and that's actual temp. Ugh! I was so glad when we moved into military housing with ac!!!! That first summer we used to drive down to the base to the commissary just to stand in the frozen food section to cool off!

So, I guess I shouldn't complain too much... I do have ac now and it's on!!!!

[BBKCD]

I can't imagine life without a/c! I look at pictures from the turn of the century(not the last one,ha-ha) at the Edison Estate here (in FL) and all the men are in suits and the ladies are in their corsets and long-sleeved dresses, and I wonder--were they insane????

[MarchMommy]

I COULDNT IMAGINE IT EITHER.......





TOPIC KILLER?????????????????????????????

[Jai]

TOPIC KILLER?????????????????????????????

:D LOL


I cant imagine wearing all those clothes either in that kind of weather. Its insane.

My mom told me that we never had A/C until we moved, which was when I was 15. She said the heat never bothered us, because we never got used to the coolness. So I guess since Ive been used to the A/C for a while now, I cant break myself. When we didnt have A/C we swam in our pool ALOT!!!

[geebee]

I heard that Madonna refuses to AC her house because it's not natural. I don't even remember where I heard that, but it always stuck in my mind, and I remember thinking "Gosh, her poor babies..."

[MarchMommy]

my boss hates A/c too. he also thinks its unnatural. but luckily he has his own office and a separate A/C unit....so he can keep it as hot as he desires in there

[without]

My grandparents won't use A/C and they won't use A/C at there business they have. There Sec. got sick last week becasue by noon it was already 102 inside the office. I think that is just dumb!

[MarchMommy]

yea i couldnt work like that.....

[DIVADLX]

It gets hot and humid here too, but fans always seem to do the trick...

I ctually don't know if I would want AC in my house... seems like it would just make it seem hotter outside, and it would make it impossible to have windows and doors open...

But then again, I have only lived with AC for 3 years of my life - during my undergrad - and was ever so grateful for it!

[sunshine]

104 degrees yesterday and it's 84 degrees now at 6:45am!!!!

[without]

Girls I can't take this heat any more!

Last night coming home from the gym I looked at the bank clock and it said the time was 8:10pm and the temp was 101. Then when I got ready to go for work this AM the bank clock said time was 6:45 and temp was 82! I need a pool!

[newmami]

Oh Lord!! I am sorry you girls from the north are dealing with the hot weather!! at least here is expected.... it has been raining here, so it kind of cool down (isn't it sad when cooling down means high 80??? :shock: ), but the humidity is terrible!!! whenever we go out is like you are entering a steam room!! I feel bad for poor Danielle! she hates the hot car seat!! (we are using DH's car b/c I crashed :? , and the tint on the windows is not the greatest)

[without]

we are using DH's car b/c I crashed

Are you OK? How long ago was this? I hate car trouble!

[newmami]

I rear ended another car last Monday :oops: I SWEAR I SAW THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME MOVING!!!
I am Ok, it was not bad, considering I was completely stopped, but I freaked out big time!! the car I crashed had a little scratch on the bumper, while I managed to break the lamp, grill and bumper on my van, and even puncture the radiator!!!

[without]

I am so sorry! DH rear-ended a guy in his truck last year. We were one month from paying off his truck. It didn't leave a ding on the other guys’ truck and it totaled DH's. He is still heart broken over it. Of course insurance only gave us like 4,000 dollars to on the truck and it was only 3 years old. The insurance Company took us for a ride. (Pardon the pun)

[MarchMommy]

oo im sorry to hear that Claudia!! glad all was ok....

[daylilies]

Last night was unbearably hot. It got up to about 95 during the day and our apartment building traps heat year round so it never cooled off. I came home at 6 p.m. and cranked up the AC. We only have one AC unit in our 1 bedroom apartment and it's in the living room. I swear it took until like 5 in the morning for the bedroom to cool off. I don't know what we'll do if we stay in this complex and get a 2 bedroom. We'll have to rig up an AC in the baby's bedroom.

[MarchMommy]

yea but the good news is that youll have a while after the baby comes to do that!!!

[Della21]

I seriously cannot live without a/c in the summer. I would probably kill someone. Fans just won't do the trick. I have to have it on 76 all day long to be comfortable. And when I visit my parents' house I always feel bad because I think to myself, "If I were home right now, I wouldn't be so miserable in this heat." :?

[MarchMommy]

all fans to is blow around the hot air.... :?

[Della21]

Yeah. Then you feel like you're in a furnace.

Can you guys believe Jasmine (NSenadenos, or Nicole's DD) is going to be a year old in just 2 days? And then Sam's going to turn a year old 10 days later?!! OMG! They're growing up too fast! :cry:

[Jai]

YAY!!!! Thats so cool that some of the first APA babies are already turning a year old!!!! :D

[Bean]

WHAT?! Sam is going to be a year?? Where the heck has the time gone? She was 9 months old yesterday! :lol:

[MarchMommy]

wow....sam is almost ONE.....

holy fast year batman....

[YellowRose]

I can't believe Jasmine and Sam are turning one already!!! Where has the time gone??

[kel]

They were just born when I first posted!!!!!! Time really does fly! What special plans do you have for Miss Sam I am? she's such a doll!!!

[HollyJo]

APA babies are turning a year. WOW!

Totally off topic (if there is even a topic :lol:) but for anybody like me out there that LOVES coconut, did you know that there is now a Toasted Coconut Almond Joy available?? I bought one at Target and it was SO good. Yum.

[Jai]

Mmmmm, that does sound good!!! And Im not even a big fan of coconut!! Must me the PMS cravings. :D

[DIVADLX]

Holly - are you a coconut fan? At the Dole Plantation I can get this coconut macadamia nut brittle that is to die for! Let me know if I can pick some up for you.

Oh my goodness, they also make this white chocolate pineapple coconut thing that is so good.

[MarchMommy]

awwww i LOVED going to the Dole Plantation in Oahu!!!! ive been there several times. i LOVE the pineapple ice cream!!!!!

[newmami]

DOLE PINEAPPLE ICECREAM???? we have that at Magic Kingdom... they make a float with pineapple juice and the ice cream... soooo good!!!!

[BBKCD]

Now I want a Pina Colada! 8)

[HollyJo]

Jenn... I would luva luva some!! It sounds great! But only if you have an opportunity. Don't run yourself ragged trying to get some. I know you're so busy w/ this move!

Is that the plantation with the pineapple maze? If so. I've been there! And I hear ya on the pineapple ice cream Christi, it rocked! As does the Disney stuff as well. I get one every time we go!

[MarchMommy]

Is that the plantation with the pineapple maze? If so. I've been there! And I hear ya on the pineapple ice cream Christi, it rocked! As does the Disney stuff as well. I get one every time we go

YES the first time i was there the maze wasnt complete...when i went back for my honeymoon it was done...its too cool!!!

[rolokty]

butting in. this has to be the longest post ever. you guys are determined not to let it die.

Hollyjo.....no "coconut macadamia nut brittle " for you!!!! 8)

[HollyJo]

Haha... what if I promise to share with my diet buddy? :wink:

[without]

I LOVE Coconut! DH and my dad both hate it so mom and I NEVER get it! Some times I can talk mom into making a coconut ceam pie (hers are to die for!). The bad thing is she and I are the only ones who eat it so we eat the whole thing just the two of us. I have no selfcontrol when it comes to coconut! :oops:

[DIVADLX]

Holly - my mom and sister want some so I have to go up there anyway. It will actually be nice to get out of the house (if you can call it that - I prefer hazardous disaster zone) and go up to the North Shore for some R and R.

We did the maze too when my sister and her boyfriend visited. And had some Ice Cream. Yum Yum!

[MarchMommy]

i bought a BEAUTIFUL tea pot at one of the market vendors there while on our honeymoon. DH and i had rented a Harley and drove there first (it started raining) and we were on our way to the North shore and i cherish that tea pot!!! everytime i use it i think of Dole!! its shaped like a Pineapple and the lid is the greens!!

[DIVADLX]

Oh cute! So sweet that you cherish it. I can't think of anything I hae from here that's like that...

[MarchMommy]

no what was really funny was how we got it BACK on the harley!!!!! that was an adventure....it was in the saddle bags, but i had to basically HOLD everything else so that pot wouldnt break!

i love hawaii...im so jealous that you get to live there

[HollyJo]

Well Jenn, since you're already going to be there, then I definitely can't refuse! ;)

Am I the only creature of habit here?? I'm so used to going straight to the New Moms section first thing when I sign onto APA. Now with all the new categories I keep clicking on a TTC section because it's where New Moms used to be. Someday I'll figure it out! :P

[Jai]

I do the same thing Holly!! So many new sections. Great idea!! But will take some getting used to. :D

[DIVADLX]

Yeah, I always go straight to new moms... then Breastfeeding then I'll peek into General. I seldom post or look in "random" though.

I almost think there are too many now - its going to make it harder for one post to reach a good amount of people for support.

But you know, I don't pay for this privilege and will take APA in whatever way it comes.

[newmami]

New moms is also my first choice, then mother & baby care, and working moms. I like General and Random for the fun, but definetly this one is my favorite!

[YellowRose]

Me too! I always come here first. I really don't post too much in General or Random.... too many people and posts to keep up with it. I like it here!!! :lol:

[kel]

I feel the same way! there are SOOOOOOo many! I always come here(new moms), i feel like I know everyone here!

[MarchMommy]

i come here first ALWAYS...then Breastfeeding, then Random...
about once a day i will check out the month that we are in to see who has had their babies....

i have to check for posts not answered since im a Mod...have to make sure everyone is responeded to at least once... :wink:

[MarchMommy]

OMG this thread was at the BOTTOM of the PAGE...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

come on ladies...dont let the thread DIE....

[Peanut's Mom]

this thread has been awesome. I've been reading but not posting. :roll: It's hot here, 90 but suppose to get up to 94 and we don't have a/c so my sexy outfit is one of dh's old comfy tshirts and underroos. Thank goodness all our windows have shades or curtains on them. :oops:

[DIVADLX]

The last couple of days have been miserable here!!! It was so bad last night that my sweating miserable little Stella woke up drenched and crying. Poor thing.

[Jai]

I check in here, then random. And then I still go to July (they are a bunch of really fun girls) and then August. I also check the "unanswered posts".

This is my FAVORITE though!! :D

[MarchMommy]

mine too!!!!

[newmami]

This thread is being left behind!!!

Any big plans for the weekend? we are starting to move tomorrow to the new house (YEAH!!!) and Sunday will be for resting, and hopefully pancakes for breakfast!! :wink:

[MarchMommy]

NO plans here, and i LOVE it that way.....

last night i made spaghetti sauce HOMEMADE...
my mom and i canned tomatoes last sunday..100 jars of them, and OMG the spaghetti was to DIE for....
au natural....

[sunshine]

I'll put a request in for some of that awesome spaghetti sauce, MM!!!

Claudia - Good luck with the move this weekend!

Just have to say this.... If ONE more person asks me if I'm expecting again after looking at my fat stomach I'm going to friggin' slap them!!!!!!!! :evil: :evil: :evil:

And PLEASE let someone buy our house this weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...... feeling better now! :roll:

[BBKCD]

No...I need to clean out the pantry closet, and start moving some things around b/c they're going to start tiling my unit in the next week or so. The carpet's pretty ratty, so it's a good thing, but I'm not really looking forward to hauling things around :o Then again, it will force me to organize things.

[Jai]

Claudia Good Luck this weekend!!

Debbie Good Luck to you this weekend too!!!

And PLEASE smack the crap out of someone is they say something like that. Ive seen your pics!! You do NOT look pg!! Marissa asks me whenever Im getting in the shower if I have another baby in my belly. :(

Marissa and Peyton are staying the night at my moms tonight. So we are RELAXING!!! I cant wait!!


AND......Our annual family canoe trip is next weekend. I CANT WAIT!!!!

[YellowRose]

No big plans this weekend for us. Monday we may be going to meet with the loan officer that Dh spoke with today. She did a pre-approval thing and is going to call back with the results and possibly make an appointment. I really, really hope we are able to buy this house!! I just love it and really want to get out of this apartment!!!!

[Della21]

I'm not letting Aly kill the thread. :P NEH NEH! You don't get to kill the thread, Aly! :lol: I can't see Aly killing ANYTHING, so I'll gladly keep her from being the last to post. :D

[DIVADLX]

we're having a 2 day moving sale and my show opens tonight. I cannot wait until Sunday evening when I can put my little monkey-face to bed.

[DIVADLX]

by the way... did you ladies see the stupid baby who won the evenflo June voting?

Dumb baby.

Not bitter at all here...

;)

[YellowRose]

hehehe thanks Della for saving the thread, there!!!! :lol:

What did you guys have for dinner??? Dh and I had pizza.... and it was REALLY good, and the best part.... it was only $5!!! It was Little Cesear's either, it was BETTER!!! Mmmmm!!! I want some more!

[MarchMommy]

we had leftover meatloaf and taters at my moms house....at 11 pm...they eat so freaking late :twisted:

oh well they were letting us stay with them so i shouldnt complain

[stash]

OMG 11pm? I would die if I ate meatloaf that late...

[Della21]

Ugh. So would I. It would be heartburn city for me.

Diva, I know how they win the contest. They are those "pageant moms" who are CONSTANTLY bugging people with, "Oh, isn't my baby perfect?" And they hound people to death to vote for their baby, and aggravate the crap out of their friends and family for votes. Plus they're on several message boards and online groups hounding those people to vote too.

I'm not jealous either, as you can tell. :lol:

[MarchMommy]

OMG 11pm? I would die if I ate meatloaf that late...

you shoulda seen what we had for dessert then...at 11:30 :?

[Jai]

OMG 11pm? I would die if I ate meatloaf that late...

you shoulda seen what we had for dessert then...at 11:30 :?

Im curious now!! :D

[MarchMommy]

WARM banana bread....
