jules1614 - my H usually goes to Atlantic City with his brother for the Super Bowl, but since BIL moved to Texas this summer, this is actually the first time he’ll be around. So he gets to partake in my annual tradition: White wine and tater tots 😂

I am not sure I can contain my rage regarding the measles outbreaks. Just... so fucking dumb. I remember the Disneyland outbreak was right before DD1 was a year old and we aren’t that close, but close enough that I was worried. oh I can make you more angry. H's fishing "friend" doesnt vaccinate his 2 children and he went on a huge tirade this morning to H. It's all a set up from the government. Measles is easy to cure. Vaccines cause autism. His kids never get sick. (Oh and the best one) people lived a long time with those diseases and never needed vaccines! If the school tells him he has to vaccinate he will move his family to NH. And when H brought up other people who are immunocompromised he said "they will get sick anyways, doesnt matter what I do with my own family" I was so beyond furious I started yelling at MH lol I have said this for years- the anti vax movement comes down to conspiracy theory, always. And every story I hear like this confirms it. To the government conspiracy- how do they account for the fact that most governments around the world promote vaccinations? Like... the US isn't the only country. Even the CDC is only in the US. The WHO recommends vaccination. I can't even with the autism and vaccines thing. That has been debunked numerous times. And today is actually the anniversary of Wakefield's study being retracted, so thumbs up to that! LOL at people lived a long time without vaccines. Yeah... except for all those ones that didn't. Like, wut.

We actually aren't doing anything for the Superbowl! I worked today (leaving in 4 minutes, actually), so tomorrow is my only day off. I promised DD1 i would take her for mani pedis.

Ds1 and I enjoyed the wonderful weather today. It was great! We're buying a new sectional couch for the basement tonight and I need to go grocery shopping at some point. I'm trying to decide if it will be less crazy tonight or tomorrow. I'm making baked ham and cheese sliders and cowboy caviar, then we will have lots of apps and dessert. My friend is pregnant and we will be finding out the sex tomorrow too, I'm very excited!!! So what else is Nov/Dec '17 eating tomorrow 😁 We're an anomaly and dont do the superbowl. Wegmans wasn't that bad tonight. Busy but not as busy as I expected

He made bacon wrapped jalapeño poppers and armadillo eggs, which is a jalapeño popper + a layer of sausage/chorizo. Tomorrow we’ll just have to heat them up in the oven. We sampled some, ya know, for science - SO GOOD. He’s also making ribs and chicken wings. We are watching the game with my family and there will also be a bunch of other apps including spinach/artichoke dip, taco dip, and broccoli salad. Chocolate peanut butter cheesecake for dessert.

thatgolfb have you been to SeaWorld in the rain? I’m wondering if it’s worth it since we were gifted passes. We were disinvited from a super bowl party since the kids had hfm (not contagious anymore) so we don’t really care about watching the game and we don’t want the kids to be cooped inside all day.

I'm vaccinated and I was livid for anyone who wasn't

Whelp, parenting first. Ds2 just fell down the stairs. He's fine, I feel so bad and also so thankful that I was doing laundry and not on my phone when it happened. They are so dang fast! One second he was in the laundry room the next he wasn't. Luckily he was just log rolling on his side and not head over heels. The stairs are super hard to block off but obviously we need to figure something out. Is it too early to drink lol?

Running out to do a solo Target run. 🥰 Ds1 asked if he can come with me and I said no lol. It's mommy's alone time.
No plans for the super bowl tonight. We don't watch football 🤷 so it's just a normal Sunday. I do have some work to do. So I'll do that after the kids are in bed.

I don’t care about football either, unless the Packers are playing, so I’m using it as an excuse to eat delicious food and day drink. Speaking of the Packers, Aaron posted this pic from the NFL honors last night and omg - probably the most attractive photo I’ve ever seen. Probably a UO but idc!

I just couldn't grab her in time and she full on sumersaulted down the entire flight before smashing into the gate at the bottom. She was fine and I was traumatized.

DH had DD fall off the bed the other day, she's fine. Our stress continues with DH's dad in the hospital. He's old, 83, but he needs a major surgery and will never go back to living alone in his house, so that's a lot to take in. We normally super bowl because why not, but obviously we didn't this year and at least we didn't miss the best game ever!

Today was a nice day but ugh, I hate one day weekends. It was so fast. I got to spend a lot of quality time with DD1 but I feel like I didn’t get to see the baby much because I was busy with laundry and errands. DD1 and I got our nails done and I had a good workout, so that’s nice. And the next few weeks I have a series of 4 day work weeks! The first is next weekend; I have Friday off for DD1’s birthday. I can’t believe she is going to be 5. 😭

Ds2 just woke up because his chubby leg got stuck in his crib slats. 🤦 Earlier today he was all about snuggling with dh so when I took ds2 from him, dh was like well isn't it better now that he wants to snuggle with you? Not in the middle of the night, you moron.
