It’s our five year anniversary today. Neither one of us remembered this morning. He didn’t get me anything and I didn’t get him anything (yet).

ladybrienne that's adorable. My kid slept with a potato for a not insignificant period of time.

ladybrienne I am going to be smiling thinking about a baby sleeping with a bag of cat food all day. That’s adorable. What does the daycare think? It's an in-home daycare, so not too many kids. She thinks it's absolutely hilarious. He's almost 3 so luckily at this point he is very distracted by many other things and it mostly sat by the door all day, other than when it had to be up in the booster with him to eat, and when he took his nap.

Only two pages? Have we blown our confessional load forever?

My silly confession: I'm one of those people who love car carts, I'd ride in one if a. I were small enough and b. had someone to push me. So I almost always let my kid ride in one, but our deal is he has to stay in it and not be a pain in the neck while I shop, and if I do, I'll push that sucker as fast as I can in the parking lot, complete with appropriate sound effects. I get a lot of side eyes. I don't mind them, I just hate that my child melts down if there isn't one available.

I have a boring one. I'm super bloated right now from a high fat and carb dinner last night and where I am in my cycle, and it's making me super insecure to go on my second date tonight.

I was walking past a grocery store and my kid saw one of the pink car carts. The last two times we've went shopping we missed out on the cart and watched other kids get to it by being a few feet ahead of us walking in. I had time, so even though I didn't need groceries I pushed her a few laps around the store. Kid was jazzed.

omg ladybrienne I love when kids latch onto random things. it's so weird and cute and hysterical. my nephew was really the Pinocchio from the Geico commercials for a while. It's so random and he's so happy and well behaved about it so why fight it? Kid kills me. Get the kid a cat already ladybrienne!! You have found his passion! But really that's awesome/adorable. So dedicated.

The car carts disappeared from our grocery store. While checking out DS asked to speak to the manager. Checker called the manager over and my kid began asking questions and making requests from the return of them. None have showed up.

How often do you ask for the manager that your kid knows what that is?

I wanted to get this silly one out before I forgot it again. Years ago, on my commute to my first job out of college I drove by this motel. For an entire year I thought it was named The Strangel Motel. It tickled me a little that this seedy looking place had such creepy name. Well one day I went by the sign on the exit ramp and realized it was really called The Stangel Motel. No R in there. I was a little let down honestly. 🤷♀️😂 I read this several times and I don't know what the fuck is going on in this post.

I need to go pick up what I want to get H for Father's Day, but I have to help my parents with something that came up suddenly and now I don't feel like doing ANY of the approximately 549 things I need to get done today. I'd rather just hang out at my parents and watch the World Cup. Is there a confession here?

So I sort of touched on this yesterday but my kid is obsessed with buying cat food - the dry kibble kind. When he goes to my Mom's she lets him feed the cats so he gets super excited. Anyway, on a few occasions when I have had to go run an errand at Target or something, he asks if he can come with and get Jack's (mom's cat) food. Doesn't want toys, nada, just the kibble. He holds onto it for dear life in the cart, and sleeps with the unopened bag in his crib until we see my Mom and he can give her the bag and feed the cats at her house. Yesterday he took it one step further by taking the bag into daycare with him. I don't want to rob him of his joy so I just let it be. He took it again with him today, and yes he slept with the bag in his crib last night. He sits it in the corner next to him, cat picture side facing him. I'll add a pic in a sec.
