That happened to MH last year cookswithwine. He was given a "promotion" and then told he makes too much already so they couldn't give him a pay increase. It sucks and I hope you're able to work something out.

Are you bishes good at landscaping design? We're tearing out a lot of our landscaping and don't know what to replace it with.

goldenlove did you pick out a floor plan/builder? I feel like you just met with them recently? We met with the third builder last week and showed him the general layout that we liked. He wanted to take a few days to review his previous projects and discuss with his team to make sure that he could definitely do what we wanted within our budget. It seemed like he thought he could do it so we will likely be going with him. This way we can take the best of both layouts and really build our dream home without compromising.

I was trying to figure out what a felony door was. I thought it must be something really cool on FB or something that I didn't know about... it is. Join FB and we'll show you...

W had a fever for like a few hours yesterday. By bedtime he was fine. This morning he was fine. No other symptoms.
Kids are weird.
I put a play mirror down on the floor and J started kissing his reflection.

Confession: Those UNILAD FB posts. My friends keep sharing them. I don't know what it stands for.
But I always read it as unlaid and think it's a FB page for some virginal nerd group.

I'd tolerate drinking water (even though gross). H insists on standing up. So the entire bath is him standing, me telling him no and sitting him back down, and him crying. Repeat until I get frustrated enough I have to take him out.

I am still using the infant tub too, so it's not that bad. In fact, I used it until 2 with O because I had a big oversized one and he could still sit and play but it was faster and used less water. I now have a smaller one and E has just about outgrown it.

Hiya
My WTF is to Anthem BCBS. I signed up for the annual broker seminar and received the registration confirmation. It was for today. I changed my office day to today (even though I still have to go in tomorrow for a meeting) and sat in traffic (10 miles, 40 minutes) this morning trying to get to the seminar. Get there and am told by hotel staff that the meeting is tomorrow.
Sit in another hour of traffic the opposite way to my office (back toward where I came from). Get to the office and pull up my calendar. It's definitely today. Pull up the registration confirmation. Yep says today. Pull up the original email invitation and it says tomorrow. Guys get yor shit together.

Re baths, I transitioned both to a 'bucket' in the kitchen sink bc it's way easier to do the two of them one after the other this way. But earlier this week transitioned them to the shower with me. AB hates it so he'll still take the bucket bath. AV loves it. We both sit in the tub and I unhinge the mobile shower head and wash us both this way, then stand and rerinse while standing. I may get sick of it later but for now it works and I get my shower done at the same time.

We stopped using the baby tub a couple months ago. It's been fine so far. C doesn't try to get up but he's learned how to shimmy away from me in a circle when I try to sponge him down. Oh and he's sticking his finger into the drain cover holes and has started pulling that off and playing with it. I honestly didn't even know it came off like that.

Well that's annoying kleigh. I wonder how many other people did the same thing as you.

kleigh C showered with me for ages. Hed sit in the floor with toys while I got washed, then I'd do the detachable showerhead and wash him. I haven't tried with H because he gets so fussy abiut everything but maybe I should.

So after saying yesterday that I still use the infant tub, I tried to switch it up. We were behind with bedtime and people were starting to get cranky but they both needed baths. I decided to try them together to save time.
Oh my god, I think I had 5 heart attacks. E was obviously so excited to be in the big tub with big brother that she was a maniac! Scooting over here, sliding over there, reaching for toys, grabbing the faucet around O. She fell "in" like 5 times. I barely soaped or rinsed O because I needed a hand on her at all times. I will stick with solo baths for a while longer.

Uggg... my grandpa nie wants me to paint his felony door too. Today will be mbht 3rd day working on the back door. I created a monster. I think I get the gist of this, but the typos had me reading it a few times sarahwithanh! Haha. Hope painting doesn't take too long! Clearly I was tired and didn't reread. I use Swype and clearly that was a mess. Suppose too read "my grandpa wants me to paint his front door too. Today will be the 3rd day working on the back door. I created a monster." Luckily I got there and it wasn't really the door just the frame.
