have fun, get fucking SMASHED and TRASHED and get wild

 

Can confirm. First trip me and my ex went on after our son was born was to Colorado for the sole purpose of getting ripped and blitzed. It was 2017 so peak weed tourism and before Airbnb went to complete shit. Probably the last time me and my ex got along too haha

 

Amazing

 

Pics are working again for me! My youngest was snacking whilst me and him watched mommy and brother during opening ceremony tonight for baseball.

 

Amazing hoodie, now I want to buy one

There’s something very endearing that my son still comes into my room and wakes me up because he had a bad dream. Makes me feel like a protector mama bear. That being said now I’m wide awake and can’t go back to sleep lol

 

Why are these kid's shows called Trash Truck or Stinky & Dirty? My daughter asks to watch "Stinky Trash" now lol

 

Stinky and Dirty, it’s all I want to be

 

Little Dude had a friend over today. Her mom dropped her off, and I dropped her back off at home. We’ve spoken before and it has always been cordial, and she has been over before, but this was the first time I had driven to their house. I pull up and.. BIG OLE MAGA FLAG hanging on their porch. Yikes! I might have reservations if my boy gets invited over there to play…

 

Yuck

 

There are like 5 houses on our street with kids around my baby’s age and all of them have thin blue line and/or MAGA flags waving. Gonna have constant panic attacks if he makes neighborhood friends in a few years.

 

I'm definitely cautious of new parents in my area for those reasons

 

Trash Truck rocks

 

Thankfully this was the first instance with this. The kids get along great and so far my son hasn’t made many mention of her talking about her parents politics. I think our house will definitely keep being the hang out spot though haha

 

Our poor guy has a yeasty diaper rash that we had to get a prescription for. They're also recommending we change formulas but he hasn't pooped since we made the switch this morning. Being a new parent is a constant state of anxiety.

 

Baby please poop: challenge level impossible. Our guy was formula fed only and digestion was a challenge the first few months. For him we ended up only using the ready to feed premade formulas until 4 months and it made a difference, but expensive. Now he’s 9 months and can handle powder formulas and is loving solids. Keep your head held high, you’re doing great!

 

Our 2YO was a very difficult sleeper for the best part of his first 20 months, single digit through-the-night sleeps, and often 5-530 wakes. Past month almost every night sleeping straight through until 630-730. Truly life changing for us.

 

i feel so spoiled that holly has slept 12 hours basically every night with the exception of colds since she was like four months

I just know baby 2 is gonna be a terror with sleeping

 

Milo and Maisie are both pretty sick sleepers. Not Holly level, but there's still hope for a 2/2 setup.

 

Frances is a great sleeper and has been since like 2 months in. Truly a miracle

 

did sleep training at around 7 months old and our kiddo's been sleeping through the night since then (2.5 now). second one will be here in a couple months, hoping it works for her too!

 

people do be having babies up in here

 

As fun and exciting that having a baby was, I do not miss it. But holy shit that first night you get more than 4 hours of uninterrupted sleep is magical. Best of luck to you new parents, I’m rooting for you.

 

My son is 4 and still usually wakes up in the middle of the night, but we got him a full bed a long time ago because sleep was so hard for him, and we ended up going in there most nights. I still end up laying down in there with him between 2-4 most mornings, and honestly, as much as I love my own bed, I'm probably going to miss that feeling of being able to comfort him in that way. I'm pretty sappy when it comes to this stuff.
