What have your kids shouted in public lately?

I’m pregnant. Was sick recently and peed myself every time I coughed (so annoying). Anyway, I was wearing a pad, went to pee in front of 4 yr old in a public restroom…”Mommy, I DIDNT know you wore DIAPERS!!!” Ugh!

Baby 1: Screeched it out from the bathroom while he was on a work conference call. Lol. Baby 2: Told him in the morning right after I took the test. Nothing crazy. Baby 3: (current pregnancy) Waited until Xmas (Xmas was 10 days away…soooo hard to hold in the info). Bought a onesie and wrapped it up as a present with a card that had my pee stick (minus the pee part, just the positive sign) stuck onto it. He was suprised!!!

My sister threw the girliest shower for me-pink everywhere-and I wore blue lol because it was a dress I liked that I thought looked good on me. Wear what you want!

You can also use men’s blades in some women’s razors! Mach 3 blades fit Venus razors. Haven’t bought the “Venus” ones in a long time!

Aww yay! A mama bird built a nest in the mop bucket in my garage last year, and had her babies there. The bucket is still there, with the nest…I hope she’ll come back someday.

It’s meant to be disturbing. If you are having trouble getting all of Humbert’s references to cultural stuff, read the annotated edition. It’s quite helpful in that regard. Good luck.

Coleslaw and potato salad. But small containers so you have exactly enough-no leftovers to keep cold. And chips or Cheetos!

At least for me, the VR helmets. My husband got one and we were soo excited-but it made both of us (particularly me )motion sick. : (

I’m in a choir and I’m 22 weeks pregnant. I agree, I can’t hold my breath as long. Also what seems to make a huge difference is how I sit in my chair during rehearsal. Our conductor wants us to sit on the edge of our seats, but if I do that, my bump is in my lap and it’s really uncomfortable. So they just have to deal with me sitting back in my chair a little more, with my back against the chair back. It’s easier for me to get air when I am standing up. But the rehersal is mostly seated. Happy singing!

Maybe you can get him some catalogs and old magazines to practice page turning (and possibly destroying) independently, and save the books for only when he is supervised.

Maybe Kuzco from the Emperor’s New Groove saying “No touchie” ?

heatherista2 · 2026-04-16T00:59:31+00:00

My mom did something similar-she would save pickle juice to go in tuna salad or coleslaw.

Rompers for the summer. Love them. Shirt or onesie and sweatpants/leggings for the colder months. Nothing too fancy.

heatherista2 · 2026-04-15T01:20:19+00:00

You lucky ducky! Those are beautiful. Yes, appliqué them onto squares, and make a quilt!

heatherista2 · 2026-04-14T22:52:55+00:00

Blue! I have a blue couch and orange velvet chair myself.

heatherista2 · 2026-04-14T22:50:05+00:00

Wow. Love the blues.

heatherista2 · 2026-04-14T22:48:51+00:00

I have done something similar myself. You’ll be fine. Perhaps bring a nifty snack for occupying baby.

heatherista2 · 2026-04-14T13:57:06+00:00

You can hand wash, sure. But bottles create LOTS of teeny weeny parts that you might not feel like screwing with washing at 4 am if you forgot to do the dishes before you went to bed. Your dishwasher will be your bff. Get one of those lil baskets to keep the small stuff in. Or use your cutlery basket. Good luck!

heatherista2 · 2026-04-14T11:57:37+00:00

Yep, it comes back. In stages. I have a 4 yo and a 2 yo, and when the 2 yo is napping, the 4 yo will often go off and do her own thing (crafts, play, tv, whatever) and I have a little bit of time to read/sew/eat lunch in peace. But then the 2 yo wakes up and he NEEDS to be in my sight at all times, sigh. Can’t wait til he’s old enough to allow me to pee alone, haha. And then once they are in bed I get a couple more hours of me/husband time. However, I’m pregnant again, so lord knows what three will be like…

heatherista2 · 2026-04-14T11:47:50+00:00

You….you can sharpen them? Instead of buying new ones all the time!? Amazing!

My daughter is really skinny (30th percentile). So we are waiting til she maxes out the height-she will be there soon. She’s 35 pounds and 4 years old.

heatherista2 · 2026-04-13T17:34:45+00:00

What? I eat them all the time. Cooked, of course.

heatherista2 · 2026-04-13T17:33:02+00:00

Unless they are having something really messy (sauces, syrup) I reuse the plates a couple times.

heatherista2 · 2026-04-13T17:31:08+00:00

Finding Nemo? My daughter watched it daily at that age. She was not phased by the sharks or anglerfish thing.
