Morning! I'm laying in bed. The kids are playing, dh just went for a run and then he'll make blueberry pancakes when he gets back. I think today we're going to look at a couple tile places and probably go out to lunch. kim22 I always just wore my bikini, plenty of room for the tummy to grow. Also, when do you feel like you started showing since this is four for you too? I swear my stomach is already looking rounder and I remember it popped super early with ryland. (Of course right now I just look bloated or like I drank a bunch of beer last night🙄) I feel big but no one has called me out yet and I'm still able to button my regular jeans. I think I'm only getting away with it because I lost all that weight over the winter and since it was cold and I never got around to buying smaller clothes, no one really noticed the weight loss. I probably look the same as I did last summer for now. My maternity clothes are in the wash now. If I wore a maternity tank, it would probably be obvious. For now, I'm sticking to loose fitting t-shirts for the most part. 12 more days until school is out and I have all my genetic tests back and then anything goes. I never leave my classroom without a folder to carry in front of my belly.

Also, no one expects me to be pregnant so they aren't looking. My Facebook announcement when I was pregnant with T was a page from my then 5 year old's kindergarten journal that said "mom is has a baby." With a picture he drew of me with a baby drawn on my stomach. Everyone's comments thought my kid was making it up. They didn't believe it was real.

Yay!!!! I'm glad she liked the Kinder eggs! tgrimes She is too adorable! The Kinders were in a smaller box for 2 reasons; so they wouldn't break during shipping and because I felt I had to smuggle them for M 😐 Mission accomplished.

DH and H went to church with the rest of his family. S doesn't have a fever anymore but she is super crabby still. Now that the Motrin has kicked in she is not as clingy. We are going to the ILs house in a little bit to get the egg bake in the oven.

Guise, my Mom....is too much What happened? :::looks around for a therapist couch:: Oh there aren't enough words to describe her or our relationship. We have a very surface relationship but because of circumstances of my Dad passing, me having the kids and MH being deployed we're spending a lot of time together. She is ok most of the time, but when she turns up her passive agressive comments and judgements of all the things it reminds me why I left home at 19.

Playground pet peeves: Helicopter parent your kids but don't helicopter mine. I'm not by his side because I know he doesn't need me to be. Please don't gasp if he stumbles. He's fine. Also when you do shit like this, my kid thinks I will too. He doesn't get that I'm fat and out of shape. It's like Helicopter Parent meets America's Next Ninja Warrior. No thanks.

yummeecookee I die. She is the cutest. cherhorowitz C was 9lb 6 oz, right? Do they have an estimate as to how big your new LO will be? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Your memory is insane! Yes. So, this baby is 4lbs already and I still have a bit to go. So I think he's going to be another big baby. Are you having RCS? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

vino all the hugs. I'll sit on that therapist couch with you. My dad is the worst at passive aggressive comments, to the point where I constantly have to run interference between other family members. And my mom has the judgy comments covered. About a year ago we told my parents we were thinking about putting Our house on the market and I started the conversation with "we have some news..." after I told them about he house my mom said "oh, thank god!! I thought you were going to say you were pregnant AGAIN!" 🙄 I'm thrilled to tell her about #4, obviously.

Word to the wise: don't touch any sketchy looking decks or fences at these opens. That sounds ominous, what happened? I have the splinters from hell embedded in my palm

Rough night, but no fever this am...I called pediatrician anyways and she had us come in. I was a little nervous it'd be nothing and I think the doctor agreed at first since she was so smiley.. Double EI and some wheezing! She's also gained a pound in 2 weeks! Hope your LOs feel better @slene and lfig

Guys I'm so nervous for tomorrow. Between LO getting sick on Friday, me getting sick yesterday and not feeling like I'm prepared I'm fearful of how it will go tomorrow on the plane.

A little boy from Cs class just arrived and his mom told me he comes home everyday and says no one wants to play with him. He speaks Chinese and is just learning English. So sad. C is playing with him not but C is a lot more rough and tumble than him. That makes me so sad. It was so sad. His mom said it breaks her heart. C did great with him and they had an awesome time. I didn't catch them before they leave but I think we should invite for a play date. And I'm not saying this as a positive or negative thing about my kid, but he seems pretty influential to his classmates so I'm hoping if he hangs with him than others will. I won't force it but they got along great.

I just went clothes shopping because I have nothing for the summer that fits. I just need a couple pants and shirts to get me by at work. I don't want to buy much since I'll be losing more. I'm happy to say I am down two shirt sizes, 2 dress sizes, and one pants size! Except jeans. Fuck jeans. I'm still the same size at the waist. I need this stomach to start shrinking.

Way to go wedding! Enjoy those new clothes. Also, I get you on the helicopter parents. Other than suggesting a game or pushing on the swings, I'm pretty hands off at the playground. I'm your mom, not your playmate...go make a friend.

I have a bizarre "parenting" on the playground story for ya'll.
Took V to the park by our apartment. We were the only ones there, v going down the slide, me chilling on a park bench. A teenage guy with a 4 year old boy approached and I heard the teen remind the boy about not talking to anyone. I assumed this meant me, which seemed fine, I am a strange adult.
Well the boy immediately joined V and introduced himself. They we giggling and playing so nicely together.
The teen flipped out, and yelled at the boy to come talk to him. I heard the whole thing and felt sad about what was said. The boy was scolded for talking to a stranger (V, not me, I had been absolutely silent). The boy said, no he's my friend. The teen said no he's not, he's a stranger and you're not allowed to talk to anyone we don't both already know.
As punishment, the 4 year old had to do push ups and sit ups. They left the playground.

We didn't have to stay in the basement too long this morning. My tree survived but a beach from a big tree next to it landed on it.
I took h in and he has an EI. So we just picked up his antibiotics and ate on our way home now to work on the mudroom some more.

Re helicopter parenting in the playground? Shyly raises hand, both Dh and I are masters at worst case scenarios when it comes to scare playground structures. If they're sound and age appropriate, I try to be hand off.
