flamingo If they kept the kids home because of a couple kids having it is....extra...definitely eye roll worthy I wonder if it's cause of Thanksgiving next week? Parents may be extra cautious? I've kept C home before right before Christmas cause I didn't want him to get sick. I was already off work though, I didn't take the day off just to protect him from germs!

Tell me more guys. Does this gift come from Mrs. Claus?? I think I'm going to do it too with pjs, advent calendar, a few treats and a plate for santa cookies. Yes, the idea I originally found was one from Mrs. Claud, but I can't remember if i did it that way or not last year I guess if you do elf on the shelf, he or she could bring the present. Im still on the fence about the elf. I might just stick to the idea: "Here's something to get you started and excited about the Christmas season!" We don't have an elf either and I don't think I'll get one. I like the kickoff to Christmas season!

Should we do a Christmas shopping thread? Like not just for kid gifts, gifts for everyone. Gifts you're excited to get, people you have no clue what to get, unique and amazing gifts you've gotten in the past, ect? YES! do it That's all the encouragement I need!

tgrimes so sorry the kids are still sick. Any chance there is an allergy? The gastro said her symptoms didn’t present like an allergy.

tgrimes I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this. I hope they have answers soon. slenle pics of the dresses!! So, I just got back from my ultrasound and the dietician and I feel much better. I got my blood glucose tester on Wednesday and have been testing 4 times a day, but not altering my diet at all, to see if anything is triggering my sugar levels. Everything has come back well within range, including when I ate spaghetti. And the baby is measuring right on track (and has moved head down!!). Basically the dietician told me that when they have people who eat a generally healthy diet without a ton of sugar and are healthy and active, they will fail the glucose test because their body freaks out about that ridiculously sugary drink. but it’s really the only way to test, and better safe than sorry. So I have to monitor 4 times a day for the next two weeks, but she said not to alter my diet to see if there are any trigger that pop up. If not I can go down to testing 3 times a week just to make sure my sugar is staying balanced and I have to check in with them and do a growth ultrasound every four weeks.

Hi hi. Saw our fav ped this morning and n is fine. She does have HFM and she totally eye rolled daycare for excluding her since she hasn't had a fever. J is going to get miralax this weekend to make sure he is cleaned out and gets some practice pooping. Of course after I make an appt he went just fine last night..
Then we did the zoo for a few hours since it's so much nicer on week days. Home now and then we are all heading to J's conference. I don't think naps are happening unfortunately, so this could be interesting.

If anyone is in the market for an anywhere chair it sounds like they are way cheaper than normal on the pbk website today.

OMG tgrimes, you really need a break! I hope you get some answers soon as to what is causing this in the kids. I talked to another recruiter this morning. Same as usual, the reason they pulled my resume was because it looked like I would be a good fit, but either the location or pay isn't what it should be, but they will keep my information on file. I'm done talking to recruiters, unless they have a position that they can confirm pays in my range and is in a good location, I'm not taking time to meet with them. The only bonus is I'm getting interview experience and thinking of answers to the questions I hate.

slenle I love the pink on you! But that's a color a wear regularly and I tend to shy away from prints, for myself. You easily pull them both off! Wear what you are comfortable in because you'll be more confident and that's sexy!

lfig not sure if the docs recommended this but my BIL was given a compression sock for his clot/vein issues. I guess it had relieved a lot of his pain.

flamingo If they kept the kids home because of a couple kids having it is....extra...definitely eye roll worthy Yeah...barring extraordinary circumstances, I'm paying, he's going. When B had it two years ago, he was patient 0...or maybe 1 (one other child reported it). No one else ever got it, and I kept him home a full week JIC. His new preschool has thus far proven to be pretty militant about cleaning/hand-washing/etc. and hardline on the sick policy, so I feel like they're as on top of it as possible--guess we'll just cross our fingers and see what happens.

slenle You look fantastic in both! I can't choose...the first one is really fun--and it's always kind of neat to do something different/that you might not buy typically--but the pink color is gorgeous on you, too. Clearly you just need a second function to attend

We have an Elf. It is...annoying. He was a gift from my mom so I feel slightly compelled to do it, but I have a hard time keeping up. Our elf DOES NOT make messes--do not have time to clean up anyone else's crap. On a positive note, though, it is nice to have a little visual reminder to behave.
He might show up early this year, lol.

I have a elf, but he’ll arrive a week before Christmas at the earliest. And to be honest it’s probably more for me than the kids, I love thinking up stuff like that 🙄.
