Toddler update: the toddler and I went out to find puddles for splashing in and she got thoroughly soaked, partially because it started storming halfway through.

Baby update: the baby left a bigass booger on my tit

I like how the nurses were like "be sure to wake your newborn up every 2-3 hours to feed him" and then my son is like "HELP I'VE BEEN SEPARATED FROM THE TITTY FOR NEARLY 20 MINUTES I SHALL STARVE"

The baby keeps letting me know that he's done nursing by spitting out his last mouthful of milk into my lap

Just hanging out with the kids watching Miss Rachel and the toddler turns to me mid hokey pokey and just says "no". Ma'am, you can't reject the hokey pokey. That's what it's all about.

Getting two kids out of the house ain't shit compared to getting my husband out

Toddler update: the toddler made up a song about wanting some cucumber slices and the lyrics are "cucumber cucumber right here right here" (repeated)

Baby update: I gambled on doing a fast enough lap diaper change to avoid getting peed and pooped on and I lost

My boobs hurt, fuck

Baby update: the baby started pooping uncontrollably during a diaper change and while I was rushing to get a floodgate of wipes set up to protect my bedsheets he expertly aimed an arc of pee that flew over his own head and onto my pillow

I can't believe I gave birth and three days later they pulled TikTok ffs. Now wtf am I supposed to do during night feeds? Read??

Baby update: the baby has been born. He is 7 pounds and 5 ounces and his sister was very excited to meet him. His favorite activity so far is sleeping.

I made a new print of some snacks I enjoy from the Appalachian region :)

Sharing with permission. Kambi is a disabled woman in her 60s, who was just evicted to the street this week. She was attacked by a stranger in her tent this morning and it would be really nice if we could raise enough for a room ($100) so she can get some respite for her health and anxiety.

I had a dream that I found out I'd been walking around with a huge nut in my hair and nobody told me

People are dunking on Pelosi for using a walker, which is fucking stupid. The problem with Pelosi isn't that she needs a mobility aid, it's that she's an insanely corrupt piece of garbage

Toddler update: the toddler is mad because her dad won't let her drive the truck home
