Reminder of the backstory: SD is not my fiance's daughter, but he raised her since she was an infant as "Daddy". Her bio dad has now been involved again for 2 years, but we continue to have SD come over to our house during the week when her younger brother, my SS3 comes (2-3 nights a week).

Our daycare does a cute little birthday party when it's someone's big day. They are supposed to hand out invitations 2 weeks prior, and then she provides the ice cream/decorations and gives a nice present and the other kids give presents, too. It's something the kids all look forward to.

Ohh I've missed you all. I had my baby boy 8 weeks ago and I think I've only posted once since then. I'm now back at work (which has major lag times during the day) so I'll be posting like a regular again!

Had to share this funny moment. So I was in the hospital for the 2nd night after delivering my baby boy a few weeks ago. I had had very little sleep yet and was up trying to get my baby to latch on correctly and was in a tired state. I started thinking, "Maybe breastfeeding's not for me" and then my mind started to wander. All of a sudden I realized that it was pretty stupid for me to even try to breastfeed because it's not like BM was going to do it or put forth any effort towards it.

Last night, FDH came upstairs from our family room looking like he had seen a ghost! He told me that he's pretty sure we've got "something" in our house. I was like WHAT? He said that for about a week or so he keeps getting the sensation that the dog or SS3 is around him or doing something in the room, then he turns and there's no one there. I was trying not to scare myself so I didn't say anything...but I've been getting that SAME feeling. I'll swear that I see something move out of the corner of my eye and I'll look, expecting to see the dog or SS3 and neither are there.
