Thursday *****fest

***** (/biCH/): noun, informal. To express displeasure; grumble.

What's on your mind, OH? Incompetent coworkers? Obnoxious neighbors? Clueless significant other? Pissed off by world events? Keeping it inside is unhealthy.

• If you're going to call out another OH user, do so by name. Passive-aggressive bull**** is not tolerated and will be called out.

Put on your big-kid panties and let it all out!

Dear beautiful baby girl,

Please, please, PLEASE start sleeping more than 90 minutes at a time.

~Your exhausted mother

 I remember that stage. It's rough. I hope she starts sleeping longer soon.

She is 8 weeks today. Only twice has she slept longer than 2 hours at once. Last night was particularly rough as she only slept 45-60 minutes at a time, so I'm slightly grouchy today. Good thing her smiling face makes everything better. ?

Jake slept like it was a full-time job. Ava was a fitful sleeper for awhile. I used to sleep sitting up in the rocking chair with her. 

It really does get better.

I have always said that the reason babies are so cute is to keep us from shaking them!

Also "new baby smell." Yellow baby soap, powder, and that certain SOMETHING. Sometimes I've gotten stressed out, I've stopped and sniffed my son's head, and things are a little more right with the world.

You know I really can't wait to have one   ...

Oh, do I feel your pain.

I figure I will be caught up on child-caused lost sleep by December, 2782.

My "babies" are now 29 and 25, respectively.

It does get better, it really does -- and isn't it amazing what you can get done while on the verge of slipping into a coma?

I was just congratulating myself on what I've accomplished in the last two days. It is amazing what the body can compensate for.
