Just went to the grocery store, and got a few tupperware-type lunch sack items. IDK if I'll use them, but it seemed like a good idea! LOL Especially since our tupperware stash seems to be dwindling. I got her a sandwich container. I know a ziploc baggie would suffice but I hated it when my sandwiches got squished!

I was so very hormonally crazy at the end of both of my pg, don't feel bad!
As far as the mil, I don't have any advice. Are you going to have him baptized? Maybe you can plan that for a few months out and ask her to stay then. IDK!

Tay has a sandwich container and James had to get one too. But my boys are wierd and don't want to take sandwiches any more. I almost bought some containers when I was at the dollar store today but I talked myself out of them. Then I went to pack up dinner and found out that I really need them. Stupid me.

Sorry the hormones are getting the best of you, Michele!

Does Harv know you don't like his mom? Does she live in STL?

I would just tell him that you don't want her here, and it's your prerogative! You shouldn't have to justify or explain anything. If he still doesn't get it, you may have to set a timeline for when you will allow her to be there (unless she lives close, then it shouldn't be an issue, I would think).

Regardless of whether or not you like her...there aren't many people I'd tolerate in my house after giving birth. Guests, despite the best of intentions, are often more work than they are of help. He should at least be able to understand that?

I got another one too that's the size of a sandwich container, but it has dividers and a little pocket for dip. I thought that might come in handy!

That sounds fun. I had a container when I first started teaching that had room for a sandwich and then 3 other things. It was fun. I wonder what ever happned to it.

I hate this time of the day on the weekends! I should take the kids for a walk, but I'm kinda bored with walking around our neighborhood. I got my favorite, Hess chardonnay at the store and just poured myself a glass to make the afternoon pass a little more quickly. LOL DH is cooking steaks tonight. We were supposed to do it last night, but ended up ordering pizza instead.

Steak and wine sound like the perfect end to a weekend.
