Storytime at Lehi City Library

If you have young kids who aren't in school, this is a great activity (and free!). There are plenty of times and the librarians do a great job of doing a good mix of reading books and signing songs!

You can sign up for a spot starting on Mondays by clicking the link on the Lehi City website page.

Side note - every few months they also hold a puppet show instead of storytime that is absolutely incredible!! That is what is scheduled for next week.

Drunk husband 38 weeks pregnant.

We had a farewell party tonight. We bbq and watched the playoffs and bonded. My sister in law is going to basic for the navy and tonight is her last night before leaving. Well. My husband doesnt normally drink but my father in law does and well. Everyone of legal age to drink were doing shots. My husband had about 26-30 shots of tequila because he was doing the double shot glass. Which is why its so high. Well. My brother in laws managed to get him and our toddler in the car. I drive home. He begins to hurl. OMG. I almost threw up. We get home. Hes crying and apologizing. I settle our toddler in the house. I leave him in the garage to get his throw up clothes in the washer and I begin to clean the vomit around him. (I didnt want to track the vomit into the house) I call my in laws in the process letting them know we made it home. He threw up but he ok. His sister said leave him in the car with his vomit he needs to deal with that on his own. I laughed it off like hahahaha but reallly..tf. He tells me to leave him where he is at. Im said no you are so drunk you can aspirate on vomit and you are my husband. I get my green Bissell I clean up whatever vomit I could while he is still in the seat. Im helping him take off his clothes and suctioning the throw up. I throw up because well. its throw up. I tell him i got what I could but he is going to have to remove his seat because its EVERYWHERE. I leave the car windows down and leave the rest of the cleaning for him tomorrow morning. I got as much as the seat would allow. I get his clothes in the washer. Him in the shower. I wash the vomit off his body. Gave him fluids and got him dressed and in bed. Should I have done what I had done or not? Would you leave your spouse in their own mess or help them out?

Would you let her babysit?

My family goes to the same restaurant weekly, have been going for over a year so they know us
The manager (45-50 if I had to guess) comes and talks to us, she loves kids so she loves coming and seeing how my son is (he’s almost 3)
Eventually after getting more familiar she asked me if she could take my son to walk around the restaurant, my family and I always take turns doing this when he gets fussy
I said it’s fine since I can see and I know she’s not going anywhere, later she said if I’m ever in need of a babysitter to let her know
I really could use a babysitter, I never have time to myself, but is it okay to trust her? I don’t want to be too trusting but I also don’t want to be paranoid
So moms who are protective but not paranoid, what do you think? Should I let her babysit? Is this what having a village is?

Partner help

Stay at home moms with babies how often does your partner help you? And what do they do to help if they do?

Am I wrong to feel this way …

I’ve always wanted 3 children, but happy if I only had 2 - I really want my child to atleast have one sibling …

My son is 3 and my husband is 38…
I’ve asked his thoughts on having another and he says as always my priorities aren’t straight, he’s referring to finances, but not that we are struggling it is more he’s too use to how much we earned when it was JUST us two .. of course finances change with a child…

But he’s adament he doesn’t want anymore children…I can’t help feel this is a dealbreaker for me, I can’t nudge this unhappiness feeling…am I stupid to feel this way?

Tips for giving slippery finger foods!

My 6m baby is obsessed with red bell pepper. But after I have removed the skin and steamed it, its super slippery. He gets frustrated trying to hold onto it. I think ive seen you can put ground flax seeds on things to help with grip. But is that actually safe??
