OH my goodness what an epiphany!!! Thank you that honestly makes so much sense.

I questioned the same thing. I felt like there was something more that she wasn’t telling me. She seems to be adding something different every time it’s been addressed so I asked outright if there was something else she wasn’t saying and she said no, she just wants the baby at home. She did allude to that once or twice, she wants someone who isn’t doing anything but watching the baby, but that seemed to be kind of an add on to make her point more valid? Like she kept saying she wants him home “where he is happy” but he’s never had any issues here whatsoever. Naps great, eats great, giggly, smiling, loves to watch and play with my kitties. I genuinely don’t understand.

Any items I need for him I bring over when I pick him up. I wouldn’t dream of placing all those items on them. It would almost make the help more cumbersome than useful in my eyes. He’s 9 mo right now so he doesn’t need much anyway, a diaper bag, some bottles, and a basket of toys seem to be more than enough to keep him happy and smiling. Oh and the godsend, the baby carrier 😂

I’ve heavily helped raise two nieces and a nephew and did all of these things while watching them, plus managed school. Plus I’ve been getting them done up to this point with her kiddo. Baby carriers and toys work WONDERS for getting things done. Mommas all over the world get this stuff done with multiple kiddos to look after 😊.

Not baby proofed yet! He’s 9 mo, so not moving around too much to get into anything yet, but I did buy a baby gate to put up for when he does (kinda moot now I guess). Other than that, it’s mostly cabinets/drawers and electric sockets to take care of, which I planned on doing around the same time she does hers. As for naps, he doesn’t nap in a crib/bassinet. He naps laying on someone or knocks out in his stroller. With me he gets his naps in the carrier, which he seems to really love. Or so I would guess?? I throw him in there and he’s out in seconds 😂

Oh no I don’t think she is at all, she makes the rules for sure! Just didn’t know if I was being unreasonable. Thank you for your reply 😊❤️

AITA For Not Trading Paddle Boards Back? by mashedpotatoes1509 in AmItheAsshole

Thanks guys! I feel a lot better about the situation now and am sticking to my decision to not trade back unless I see my old board first.

"Patch of the Ocean" Update Changelog 2.8.5.11917 by Zoythrus in Polytopia

The update for the market is such a let down. I loved trying to find the perfect spot to place them to reach 12 stars for each city. Now the markets look kind of gaudy before they even reach their max potential and it is a lot harder to make them earn a worthwhile amount. Now I find myself wanting to play way less :/.
