I think I'm going to get MH (and myself) Seahawks tickets for his birthday next month. We haven't been to a game in ages and I really want to go. Plus, he's impossible to shop for and I just end up getting him the same damn thing every year. But also, holy shit football tickets are expensive. Very expensive!

Well I just read an article that there really won't be any new Windows phones. So whenever I get a new one, it's Android for me.
I know you're all super invested in my phone OS.

kleigh you’re too sweet. J did ok. He never took a bottle from my H, mom, or MIL. But he would drink it from a straw cup. My mom had a very hard time getting him to bed Friday, as did my MIL Saturday. And my H couldn’t get him to nap Saturday morning. BUT he STTN both Friday and Saturday. So that’s a win in my book.

elle is there a military base near you? I *think* my brother and his wife live in the same town as you but I can't for the life of me remember the name of it. He has officially moved around too much in the last 12 years.

Happy Thanksgiving! I feel like I've been spending so much lately, but there's so much we need (and want, but whatever, lol). Sales today aren't helping. I need someone to take my credit card away. I've accidentally memorized my CC numbers. Bad bad bad.

tgrimes how is H? Did the antibiotics take care of him? He's still a coughing, snotty mess. I haven't seen anymore drainage in his ear. I tried looking in them yesterday. One of his eardrums still looks red to me and the other had too much wax. Like it was covered in wax. So gross. I just feel like his cold should be getting better by now.

He started Augmentin Sept 19 and finished it the 28th. I thought the cold was a little better then and then 2 days later his nose was a faucet again. Today will be his 8th day on Cefdinir.

cookswithwine ugh, no fun. I think N has it too, but she never had a fever, but her tongue had one dot on Saturday, and today has a bunch. She went to town on a popsicle at the wedding last night and ice cubes, so I think she's hurting. The drool has been impressive as well. I feel pretty awful that we are staying at my aunt's house and there are 5 little cousins running around that i suspect will be infected, especially my neice, who has been all in N's face this weekend😔.

He has officially moved around too much in the last 12 years. I live near an old (now decommissioned*) Marine Corps air station. And less than an hour from the Marine Corps base here in SoCal. *not sure if that's the correct term The Santa Anas are in full force today and there's a fire burning nearish us. People in the city just north of where we are are being evacuated. The wind is blowing in such a way that we don't have crazy looking skies, but friends are posting pics and it's insane. This was taken by a friend at 2pm this afternoon. Northern California is also crazy on fire. We all joke that we have three seasons, spring, summer and fire, but it's no joke. 😕

elle you pretty much answered the next question I was going to ask. I finally googled because I couldn't for the life of me remember the name of his base lol, I could only remember where he lived. He's insanely nonchalant about stuff like this so I have a hard time getting an actual answer to how he's doing. When I asked earlier he sent me the video of "We didn't start the fire". Thanks, ass.

The fire is NE of us, and would have to shift south, crossing at least one freeway before our city is under threat. So I'm not concerned. Yet. Unfortunately the winds are supposed to be strong for the next few days, which won't help the situation at all.

The LC told me this boob thing is a bleb. So I'm following her process but in between soaking and oiling I keep hand expressing to clear any blockages that build.
And damn if I don't keep squirting myself in the face.

I said today I was not going to spend any money (hahahaha, like one day is going to make a dent) and I'm sitting here reading all these sale emails with a serious case of FOMO. I might just have to go take a little peek...... #nowillpower

Hi all! I'm in bed with Tollhouse cookies and a glass of red wine. It was a fairly successful day--kids are alive, house is still standing--but I am exhausted. DH said at one of the drop locations they flew a mission to today, all the people there asked for was baby food. He said it really hit home Meanwhile my mom is texting me updates on the Vegas shooting...I have legit been under a rock this week, there's all this stuff I haven't heard about so she is filling me in. tgrimes I'm so sorry poor H is still under the weather. He is such a trooper (as is his mama). I really hope the tubes will take care of this mess once and for all.

I meant to ask you last week and then the thought fell out of my head. Well, I actually bought a Christmas dress last year at Dillard's...it's the only time I've ever bought something so far in advance but I fell in love with it and took a gamble on the size. It's by Edgehill Collection. Another line they carry that I like is Strasbourg. So far this season I have seen very cute stuff at Janie & Jack, too. I tend to like really traditional things for dress-up (smocking, etc) so for that kind of stuff, I'd also look at Beaufort Bonnet Co (Mia totally needs a bonnet) & Best Dressed Child. Smocked Auctions, Southern Smocked, and Smockingbird Kids are some of my favorites that are a little less expensive (relatively speaking). TBH, a lot of their holiday stuff is very similar...pick a theme, they probably have a smocked dress, bubble and matching outfits for brother. If you *really* want to go crazy, the Wooden Soldier is the ultimate in children's holiday apparel. I've never bought anything there b/c I'd need to sell a kidney first, but my aunt shops there for the kids occasionally.
