does Mimi babysit every week? kind of surprises me as I didn't think Jen would give up "control" of CC to someone else.
I think that's actually just another way Jen maintains her control of all things CC...like, "oh sure you can have your one-on-one time with her...during this predetermined time slot once a week."
I believe in planner stickers in moderation. One here, one there. Just to make certain things pop and stand out. Jen's obsession is no different than the one that I had in first grade. But that is Jen. Permanently 6 years old. (IMG:http://i63.tinypic.com/2efuivd.jpg)
Yep. Takes me back to the 80s.

And if ever there was a perfect sticker for our Jen..."THIS IS MINE". 😂
How hilarious is it that Don brings up Leo when that one fan said he looks like him?
I hate when people are all "oh, I just want to be with who I'm with now..." when asked what celeb you'd want to be with. I have friends that do this & it sucks the fun right out of it. It's just fantasy; no one is saying you have one foot out the door! My husband knows that I have a list of celeb husbands. LOL
This is also where she refers to Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey's reality show as so cute. Ya know, where she didn't understand what chicken of the sea was. Hmmmmmm..."what do we call this???"
I haven't commented throughout this whole saga. Just.can't.do.it.
But, come on, people. Let's ask the hard-hitting questions.
Val, if Jen were to say the word "Longchamp" in a whiny voice how would it sound?
When she is super pouting, locked in her room, and Don is waiting outside saying, "But I got you another present," might she screech something along the lines of, "IOWNCARE!!!" ????
I find her obsession with her child's size alarming, both professionally and personally. I have to wonder if someone has made her feel like having a chunky baby means she is doing something incorrectly
One of my little guys had failure to thrive. It was the scariest time of my life. I had one that gained weight just looking at the boob and one who wouldn't gain an ounce. Both of them are long, they were born long and they are long now. My husband and I are both tall, so that is to be expected. However, watching your babe struggle and be long and lean is nothing to celebrate.
Jen's kid is a big girl and that is a very good thing! I will say that if she is in size 4 diapers, it is not because she is long but because she is heavy. Jen should have kept that to herself if she wanted to keep the long and lean fallacy going. I will say, however, that Honest Co run small.
Amen to this! After having two preemies and one full-term baby who was diagnosed failure to thrive, we worked hard for and celebrated every pinchable, adorable roll. Jen's obsession with this is alarming and sad though, sadly, not all that surprising.
Also...Jen knows better than the people who recalled a sippy cup. GUYS...you just aren't cleaning it properly! You have to take it apart and wash it EVERY DAY. 🙄 Of course CC figured out how to drink from a straw, because MAMA was doing it (and her big sister Winnie). And she likes musical toys not because most all kids do, but because MAMA has "sung to her constantly since she was born".
When she gets to the sweater from Bloomingdales "it's reallly well priced !!!" *looks at tag* "it was $190"
But "it was the perfect piece to add to her COLLECTION"...ya know, the standard cashmere sweater collection. That she will pair with too tight American Eagle jeggings, birkenstocks, and socks.
Came across this today...wherein Jen "not a shopper" Ross explains exactly what counts and doesn't count as shopping for "an avid shopper like me". And, you guys...she hadn't been in like A MONTH. Don't worry, it's right at the beginning. You don't have to watch her show you all her bags, while talking about how she will show what is in them in a future video for the first SIX MINUTES of the video.
I'm not a "planner" in the sense that most are. I "memory plan" and use it like a daily scrapbook. I use stickers (for holidays, vacations and weekends only). I really wanted to do something to remember the small things that happen daily. It sounds silly but I'm viewing it as an upgrade from my usual gratitude journal. Each day is a gift, but not each day is full of excitement. The small things are worth writing down and remembering too. Just my opinion.
I said this a long time ago. My grandma kept a calendar to mark what happened that day. It's really special to us since she passed. They are years of our lives and some random funny stuff. " 10/22/14 Flossy and kids visited. Chicken salad. Not my best. That bitch down the road is stealing my mail."
My grandparents do this too. They even have a little log next to their phone. I have used calendars for keeping track of milestones with my kids and funny things they do or say. I also try to keep journals when we go on vacations. My 17 year old cousin passed tragically several years ago, and I remember my aunt being so thankful that she had a stack of calendars full of all kinds of memories. Sometimes it's those little, daily things that can mean so much after someone is gone.
Grandma Flossy sounds like a my kinda broad.

Jen's journals and writings are of the most mundane type, and I can't imagine CC years down the line finding any excitement in a box of her mother's journals, or in discovering her blag posts and Don's poems.
