Ds is doing great. Tubes are pretty easy. He's normally back to his normal wild self by the afternoon.
I got some uggs with the big src Whee!


I'd give him a vs catalog and a bottle of lotion and tell him to you know what laugh out loud.
Thanks so much! I can't believe it's been a week already. My husband goes back to work on Monday and I am sad about that. I wish we could live in our own little "happy new family nothing else in the universe matters" world for a bit longer.

Glad to hear your son is doing good! I hate to see kids in pain - I'm already dreading Natalie's 2 month appointment with all of her shots Frown

Quote from kurips :
i haven't ordered yet Angel Not



that was me! Wave
yay for your little good sleeper! i wish mine didn't outgrow the swaddleme too fast Teehee
I will say that when we used them almost continuously she liked them more lol - but they do make her go to sleep and she doesn't startle herself awake. Makes me happy!! Thanks again for that recommendation Smilie



Thank you to everyone who gave their congratulations - I didn't want to quote everyone for a ten mile long post Wink I appreciate it so much!

I just discovered something really amazing. American express has return protection. If the merchant won't take something back, you can file a claim with American express, mail it back to them in like new condition (but you pay shipping), and they will reimburse you. I just filed a claim for some limited final sale stuff that didn't work out. Amex will even refund the original shipping you paid! There's a limit of $300 each item and $1,000 in a year.

I think this will make me more likely to order from BCBG.

Also, bloom is giving a "free treat for your feet" with every purchase. It's a surprise what it is, but there's no code or anything necessary, so you can use it with the vouchers.

In their mid-size bonus selection, they have a full sized cargo eyeshadow. Not bad!

I think their mid size samples look a lot better than their full size samples for sure. I also reread their VIP page, and it looks like starting Feb 15, gold and platinum bloomboxes are only going to be available for VIP's Frown. To be a VIP, you need to spend $100 every six months, not including vouchers. Why would anyone do that with all of the voucher deals?

Nope, there's no fee. I just called, and I definitely didn't sign up for anything. I have a Costco Amex.

Hiya. Wave

Quote from red333 :
I love my bf, but he's not romantic. I told him nothing about him could even be confused for romantic. I love hearing romantic stories, though : ). They're so wonderful. DBF and I are two years tomorrow. I would love if he did something romantic, but he won't. That's okay. He had a lot of other wonderful qualities : )
My DH isn't romantic as far as surprising me with gifts or romantic getaways either. He loves it, when I plan something though. He's just not a planner, & I've come to accept that. Every now & then, he'll blow me away though. At my nephew's wedding, they were playing slow music for dancing. He came & got me & said, "let's go show them what love is supposed to look like." He held me closed & stared in my eyes the entire song. Heart As long as your boyfriend is good to you, & takes good care of you, that's much more important than an occasional romantic surprise. Some guys are good at romantic gestures & some aren't.

Quote from PordaPoddy :
Someone asked about proposal stories, I'll share ours. We were going to Vegas for my birthday. DH was working out of town so the plan was- he would finish work, drive back into town and then we would head to Vegas where we'd catch dinner, then a Cirque show. DH was going to propose in front of the Bellagio fountains after Cirque. Reality: he got stuck in traffic on the way home from work and we got stuck in traffic on the way to Vegas...missed our dinner reservation and I had to change in the back of the car for the Cirque show to make it on time. To add to it, DH didn't think to check what time the Bellagio fountain turns off and they were off by the time the Cirque show let outStick Out Tongue DH proposed in our hotel room that crazy night- he just couldn't hold on to the ring anymore, it was killing him : D . I love that he tried to plan something, but I also love that he was too excited to wait until the next day for our rescheduled dinner : heart:
So sweet. heart


Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
Some of my alabama fb friends thought this was really cool :lol :.
I'm with Alabama. Stick Out Tongue I think it's great that she's standing up for what she believes in, as long as she isn't physically harming anyone in the process. FWIW, I'm a liberal in most ways, but I'm also a Christian. I wouldn't work at a place that made me constantly feel like I was doing something wrong either.

What I don't get is how her Christian beliefs let her competeto be an Angel in the first place and then accept the position as an Angel. It seems obvious that it is due to her husband and not her beliefs. It's not as if she signed up to model coats and then was forced to model lingerie.

Exactly. Why was she doing it in the first place if she had such a problem with it?

Express has more dresses that are 30% off. Don't know when that happened but it's different from last weekend I think.
Thanks for the heads-up.

Quote from CrazyCatJade :
I did : nod: : heart:

She arrived last Thursday, my little groundhog. No word as to whether or not she saw her own shadow!

She's perfect. I'm so glad pregnancy is over. I was so depressed the last two months, that why I haven't been around here a lot - it was like pre-partum depression lol. It sucked. I'm feeling TONS better and I have put all of the baby advice I got from you girls into use!

A HUGE thank you to whoever it was that recommended the "Swaddle Me" blankets. They really are like the baby coma blankets laugh out loud Feed, change, swaddle, sleep. That is her cycle : )

How is your son? How did his tube surgery go? I hope he is doing good and I hope you are too Smilie Hope you ended up getting some awesome stuff from VS with your $500! It's gonna be a long time before I can buy and VS bras again. I swear my chest is a size Q now :lol :

Here are a couple of pics of Natalie:



She's so cute. heart I'm glad you're feeling better. hug

If it rains Saturday, we're going to the outlet mall in Orlando. I'll try to remember to look for them at the VS outlet.

Those are rough. Frown I always made my DH go with us to hold our DS. After the shots, I'd tell him to come to mama. Yes, I'm evil to my DH, but I didn't want to be the bad guy. Teehee

When I log into Bloom, it says I'm VIP, & I've never placed an order w/o a voucher. Confused

It's possible that she's just now starting to live her life as a Christian. Unlike many religions, becoming a Christian is a choice, instead of a birthright. It's also possible that she had back slid, then changed her life once she was married. Naturally, I don't know if either of these are true for her, but either makes sense to me.
