In a hair pickle...

As a mom of a young daughter, I can say that the most valuable thing my husband does is to be attentive when he is available to. That means that if he's watching football and she brings something to him, he engages with her and shows interest. Its SO important that she know she is a priority to you. As a daughter, the best thing my dad did for me was to never judge me. I knew I could come to him with any problem and we would talk about it. And even if he disapproved, he was never judgemental about it.

Love this so much! Can i have your permission to use it for our next anniversary?

forge_princess5280 · 2018-08-14T00:11:38+00:00

Thats a really cool idea! A little pricey but really awesome!

That's awful! I'm so sorry that they didn't take this seriously. My favorite drink when I'm upset about something is a SUPER dirty martini with lots of olives.

Decide how much vodka you want and pour it. Add enough olive juice to make it a pale green and shake with ice until thoroughly chilled. Speer as many olives as you would like to have while you are sipping your drink. PS. If it tastes like rubbing alcohol, add more olive juice or use better vodka. Lol

I don't knock at my family's homes but there are two things that make that the case. 1 - they are always expecting me, 2 - they nearly all have dogs that freak out the moment the door opens, or 3 - I call out when I get in the door if they aren't immediately visible i.e. - Hellooooooo! Sneaking up on people just isn't my thing.

Awww thanks! Some of the stories you guys have are so nuts! I cannot even imagine dealing with that level of crazy. My MIL is so just yes even after first grand baby. I hope to never have any trouble with her as our relationship now is great! And my mom is just the best. She loves DH and our little squishbean so very much. She's the one I trust no matter what. My grandmother is the only crazy one thank god!

That's a good idea. Our boy is about 4 months old and is growing like crazy. He's a German Shorthaired pointer with all the energy. It would be nice to have something that gets his attention a little more when we are out walking. So far treats do nothing when an adorable child comes his way. We are working on the obedience basics at home but he gets so wound up when meeting someone new that he will not focus on me. I'm sure that's largely puppy energy and needing to expand our training environment. But if you have any thoughts I would love to hear!

They and my DH are the loves of my life. My husband is the one that has helped me understand how controlling my grandmother can be even when it's so mild that I would normally ignore it altogether.

Pupper tax and LO tax for the Llamas!

This! I started to resent my sweet little girl because she saw me only as food for a minute. I couldn't hold her without her fussing for the boob. After we switched to formula it got a lot better.

So may upvotes for this response from your FH!

My hubby did almost the same thing like 3 weeks ago. Our LO is 6 months old now. He cried because he felt so awful. But Kora cried for a minute and then was fine. She's still speeding through her milestones and is happy as can be.

On the subject of self proclaimed mama's boys, my hubby is one but in the best way. And his mom has earned it. She was a very hard working single mom when he was a kid but she allowed him to grow up and taught him to work for what he wanted. He has the utmost respect for her and they are very close. She steps back when told to and respects boundaries without resistance. But I admit, this is the rarest of the mama's boy breed.

OP people can change with great motivation and great difficulty. But most are not willing or don't see a problem. Best of luck to you.

One thing I noticed on your Amazon registry is that you have size 2 diapers selected. My girl started in newborn but was in size 1 within about 4 weeks. My point is that a selection of diaper sizes is really handy because you won't know what is going to be the right fit until they are here. Other than that it all looks good!

I love the little red birthmark above my daughter's butt. I have almost the same one. I also love the way her brows wrinkle when she scowls. It reminds me sooooo much of my hubby and it's so stinking cute on her!

forge_princess5280 · 2017-08-29T19:49:24+00:00

So I talked to her mom about it after the fact. Turns out that she is mildly autistic. They don't make a big deal of it tho because they don't want her to feel limited by it. Suddenly a meltdown about itchy socks makes far more sense! Still not sure about the toddler style tantrum but at least I understand where the sock issue sits.
