Welp. I made it 4.5 years without car puke. Until tonight.
Good thing I spent the money on new tires and not a new car!!
So the car seat is in the trash and I’m about to run to Target for a replacement.
Should I get another convertible or switch to a high back booster? My kid wouldn’t unbuckle ever but would probably move around a lot and he sleeps on road trips.

I was listening to a morning show on my drive to work and they talked about blind items. Seems relevant to today’s UO/every day in the blinds threads. (They were likely talking about Zayn and his overdose).

I had mentioned earlier that maybe it was a good night for adult fun, but H is outside smoking while I deal with the kids. Six year old keeps sneaking out. Baby won’t stop screaming. The mood is pretty much gone. That would piss me right off. Sorry about your night, lady. I’m tired anyway and it’s hard to get any time alone when I don’t want to just sleep. Newborns. Sigh.

SweetPotato, I would stick with 5pt if he still sleeps in the car. Don’t they make something that is a 5pt harness that goes into a HBB?

You can teach them to look up when they fall asleep but it takes awhile.

I’d get him a 5 pt that can go to a booster SweetPotato. It took DS1 until just recently to figure out sleeping in a hbb in H’s vehicle. He’s still harnessed in my car.

I'm sorry about your grandma @rocknroll. And I'm sorry about the news about your mom rayann. Even if it was expected it's a hard diagnosis to get. Huge hugs.

I didn’t know there was such a thing as 5 point to booster. I’ll get one of those.
Thanks, guys!

My H has been sick since Sunday with a recurring fever. I get home from my meeting and he sounds god awful. Of course I left my stethoscope at work so I can't listen to his lungs, but I'm pretty sure he might have pneumonia.
He looks so awful and is lethargic so I'm insisting he goes to urgent care, but I don't want him driving, so I called my mom and we're waiting for her to come sit here while the kids sleep. I hope they can see him quickly.

I also registered DS for swim class this morning. The evening sessions always fill up quick so I feel pretty accomplished about that. How old is your DS? My DD is almost 3. I'm trying to decide if I should start this summer or next. He’s 6. We started at 1.5 with a parent and baby class, and worked our way up. If they have appropriate classes for her age, I’d start now!

I am behind this season. I will have to wait for it to hit Netflix. I'm still on the first season. Are the following seasons as good as the first? I think so. The narrator and the grandmother are my favorites.

@gentleapricot and @wasabi
I absolutely LOVE my Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited! It's a 2013 and I never want to get rid of it. Trunk space is pretty decent and last summer I had a front to back double stroller, pull cart for beach stuff, kites and beach toys and still had room for groceries.
I love that it's high up but doesn't run like a truck. Mine is a v8 so it's pretty quick but smooth acceleration. Some SUVs I've been in kind of lurch when you accelerate. It's great in snow but I don't either one of you necessarily need that. Mine also has the ability to switch gears for snow, sand, sport etc.
I have a limited edition color (winter chill pearl so an ice blue)so it's easy to find in the sea of Jeeps at the mall 😁.
Let me know if you have any questions!

It was really good. It was not as scary as I expected, it was more jumps and tension than prolonged scary stuff that sticks with me.
I haven't seen a horror movie in a theater in like 15 years but I really wanted to see this one.

I bought some bralettes from Costco. My first new bras in 3 years (I know...)
It is the most comfortable thing ever. But I have approximately no tops they’re not visible under, so I can’t wear them on a regular basis. But they’re comfy enough to keep.
