I'm blanking on what to get my niece for her 2nd birthday. I obviously need the best gift. I was going to get a doll and doll stroller, but they already have one. Tea set? Mr. Potato head? Train set? Anyone have any ideas? I adored my tea set when I was little. Maybe some dress up clothes?

I came across this today. Thought I'd share it since we were talking about chickpeas the other day. I have all the ingredients except the chickpeas, but I might try it for lunch today! www.skinnytaste.com/chickpea-avocado-salad/I eat a salad like this often, also good with added chicken, egg or some salmon. Totally hard boiling eggs today!!

trtlcrzy let me know if you try the new maple pecan latte! I probably won't, that isn't a flavor I would go for. Sorry

Morning! Busy day ahead. I told my sister we would go to a parade with her and her kids after lunch. Then my other sister invited us to go swimming at her hotel this afternoon. Late this evening is when my other sister and her family will get here. I also want to run to the grocery store this morning so I should probably work on getting everyone dressed and ready.

Morning.
Both boys woke up on the wrong side of the bed and it was a huge struggle to get them out the door.
I have a short workday so I can head out for my first OB appointment this afternoon. My mom is coming with me and on our way back we'll go to my favorite restaurant for dinner.
Pete thinks he's taking the kids to Costco as per our usual Friday evening plans. He's going to regret this decision if they're still as moody as they were before school.

LOL. Someone on N16 showed me that earlier this week. I sent it to my MIL because she always buys as advent calendars. Mine is usually l'occitane & MH's is the beer one from Costco. She said, "Looks like I'll have to make a trip to England for our calendars this year!" I don't know if she's serious or not...

I can't tell if it will be available in the states or not? If not, nam2013, we're going to need your help on this one! And I'm glad I wasn't first on the list!

chrisy01 I would talk to you DCP. You aren't paying her daughter to watch or discipline him, so I would be angry. vino I hope everyone gets to feeling better fast! Your H needs to take some Emergen C and suck it up! trtlcrzy It's going to be 88 here today, I'm wearing a tank top and it's the FIRST DAY OF FALL. Come on mother nature!

I can't tell for sure, based off this statement: The boozy bulletin is set to launch in the UK and online November 14, the same day the brand's three-liter bottle of Prosecco hits shelves. I know they won't sell it in the KS stores, so if it is domestic, I'd drive to Missouri for it.

Actually this article says it will be in the UK Nov 14 and then launch online. The other article I saw said it would only be in the UK. Hold please.

wineallthetime That's amazing- good in laws! My parent and my in laws (who have never even met my kids) do not do that for us. Enjoy your free time! Hope everyone is better asap vino! That is seriously the worst! Sick kids... and sick husband 🙄 We have an Aldi in my town! I go sometimes. My friends love it. I'm just cleaning all day. MH will be home tomorrow evening 🎉 But he's only home for like 2.5 weeks. Boo.

chrisy01 Umm not ok. PT shaming does nothing, poor guy. I wonder what she'll say about it, be sure to include how he's had set backs because of it. Keep us posted.
