I have a dumb question. When do kids stop wearing onesies? I think after size 24 months for us. I’m not sure if they make them in 2T-3T. At least not at Target or Carters lol. Walmart and target both carry the gerber 3Ts 🤣 I really wished Carter’s made 3T, but alas... For undershirts, we use primary.com’s. Love them so much

I’m finally putting away the clothes J’s grown out of. Oh my, such tiny adorable clothes! I can’t believe he was that small.

We go to FL in a couple weeks which I'm super excited about. I want a new swimsuit. All of mine are over 5-10 years old and not exactly my style anymore and only a couple fit my BF'ing boobs. I think I'll try Target when I do go. I'll probably put it off another week since we just got back from another trip and have been spending a lot of $$.

And one smaller than the other, the slacker.

Post nursing boobs: I'm not looking forward to that. I've been nursing or pregnant for 4+ years... I'm scared of how bad it will be. Dh has already made some comments.

So I found some of that black bean pasta that you guys had mentioned, happened to come across it at Big Lots 🤷
DS2 was...not amused. He ate one piece, then went to reach for another, looked at it and thought for a second, then pulled his hand back. And he wouldn't eat any more lol.
What do you guys put with It? I salted it just a bit but that didn't seem to add much flavor. He loves actual black beans and this didn't taste much different.

Or red sauce. Or whatever else we are eating our pasta with. He loves pasta though so it’s a good way to get more protein and iron in him.

J’s birthday party is next week at the ILs. He’ll be going in their pool for the first time - what do I need? I have a swim diaper and swim trunks. Should I get him floated? Swim vest? Do they make those for kids this young?

Do they make those for kids this young? We took N to H’s stepbro’s pool yesterday. We just had a swim diaper, swimsuit, hat, sunscreen, extra clothes for after and a towel for her. We held her in the pool and let her play on the shallow lounge area with us right next to her. I know they make infant vests but I don’t think it’s necessary.

RE: baths - we do it every night because he really likes it, and I like to wash the daycare germs/outside smell off of him. We don’t always use soap or shampoo. We got this Munchkin inflatable duck bath that he really likes. I feel a little better about it when he tries to stand because there’s a soft landing. Munchkin White Hot Inflatable Duck Tub www.amazon.com/dp/B000066665/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_86HaBbVK2BFQZHe also loves these Skip Hop buckets: Skip Hop Zoo Bath Stack and Pour Bucket Rinse Cups, Multi www.amazon.com/dp/B012CBD47K/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_Q7HaBb0YXZFW8I just rotate 2 in for each bath and switch them up occasionally.

We have the duck tub too, and he loooves that thing. We bathe almost every night because he loves it and it calms him down before the rest of his routine. We only soap/shampoo if he’s really gross or was covered in sunscreen (which is frequently now that it’s nice out).

Today was DS2's birthday so I guess he's technically not an infant anymore. It's funny how fast a year can go and yet some days are so bone crushingly slow.

So our cat is sick 😪. Taking her to the vet tomorrow. She’s not really eating, not grooming and not really moving from under our bed. I bought some wet food for her yesterday and she’s eaten some, but is still not back to herself. My H just carried her to the litter box since she hasn’t gone since yesterday. Poor thing. I hope they know what’s going on with her.

Hopefully she has a speedy recovery.

lupincat thechickencoop thanks. I don’t like seeing her like this. The vet doesn’t have any openings til tomorrow morning. She’s actually out in the couch this morning and grooming herself. That’s a big improvement. We are still taking her tomorrow though that’s for sure.

He made a test cake yesterday, which I'm glad he did, because the frosting was... not good, I mean terrible. He is insistent on making the cake and won't let me help. I sent him a link for a different frosting recipe so we'll see. I dislike smash cakes and I thought H felt the same but I could not for the life of me convince me that a cupcake will be plenty smashable for a 1YO. We are getting ice cream cake for the adults though. J may get to have some of that too.

I haven't ordered the food for the party yet and am suddenly feeling very anxious that it's too late. Anxiously waiting for the restaurant to open to call... Also same with the cat sitter. Why do I always do this to myself?

The ILs have an awesome set up outside with a pool and a swing set that they just fixed up and a nice yard. It would be such a shame to be cooped up inside.
