I purchased yarn from The Loopy Ewe this morning. Let’s just call it research, okay? And, let’s not tell my husband. It’ll be our little secret.
Edited to add: I need to say I’m in a really bitchy mood. Everything is getting on my nerves especially the judging and bitching of other parents [both those of 46 chromosomers and 47 chromosomers (if you read my blog, I’m not talking about you, I’m talking about some other things I’ve read online)]. Who the fuck are these people? Why is naked a bad word? Why am I a bad parent for believing naked is just fine for a child to say? Yes, I think your child will be a pansy when he/she grows up because if naked is a bad word, then who knows how warped their views will be. No, I’m not irresponsible for not choosing to have an amnio even though there was the possibility of Down syndrome. And, no, I’m not a bad advocate for my child even though I don’t go apeshit crazy on the 16 year old checkout girl for saying the word "retarded". Get over it. And, why am I a bad person to want a child with 46 chromosomes?
I really think I should stop reading this stuff.
Okay, so this yarn purchase is a bit of retail therapy.

I’m not telling.
I was supposed to be on a yarn diet..but we went to the State Fair last night and I had to pick some up there. I called it a special occasion! ๐
Beth says
hehehe I just received a package from TLE yesterday. ๐ Mine had Seacoast Handpainted. What will yours have? Or is it too much to confess?
Tonia says
I won’t tell I promise ๐
Hell James says penis. He knows what his penis is and will ask you when you change his diaper to put powder on his penis. LOL If they think that naked is a bad word then penis I am sure will make them blush. I fell that it is a part of his anatomy and he should know the names. Granted he calls my breasts belly buttons, but that lesson can come later.
I still love to have my NAKED baby run around the house giggling. I love NAKED baby butts too. James has plenty of NAKED baby shots. There is nothing wrong with them, they are cute and most are of him playing in the tub. Do these people not take any pictures of their child playing in the tub?
NAKED!! NAKED!! NAKED!! PENIS!! PENIS!! PENIS!!
LMAO!!!!
Sourire11 says
NAKED!
Dude you totally deserve some retail therapy. So what did you buy?
PumpkinMama says
So sorry the mommy brigade has you down. One of my son’s first “jokes” was saying butt over and over again, so you won’t find any judgement here. Ignore them.
cate says
Wait, we’re not allowed to say naked now?? I can’t keep up. This is why I don’t like to leave my house. Or talk to anyone.
(Oh, can I steal “47 chromosomers”? Best name I’ve heard yet, sounds like a baseball team.)
Amanda says
Oh, man…mean people suck! Plus they’re raising mean, repressed children who will take their repression out on people who are in touch with reality. Grr-argh!
I’m sorry you had a bad day. TLE always helps though, doesn’t it?
sara says
Granted I don’t have children, and have taken measures over the years so as not to procreate….but since when is naked a bad word? I am going to have to look into this….what words are more pc?
Is nude better? Unclothed? Bare Assed?
I kind of like the British: Starkers.
Kim says
What in the world? Just because they don’t like the word, WHO said that have control over what OTHERS say??? EEwwwwwwwWWWW!
I’m good with it NAKED, NAKED. Now I don’t particularly care for the “R” word but I don’t go after people if they use it in front me. I say ignore the weirdos…you don’t have to listen to them besides you don’t want “those” kind of people around you or your children, no matter how many chromosomes they have….ok I’m better. I hope you have fun with your….aahhemmmm purchase ๐
BIG HUGS
Kim and Miss T
Kim says
OH I forgot to comment on the (1)amnio (2) whether or not you “should have a child with an extra chromosome?
I say *&%#@%$#@&*^%$ !!!!!!! they are not worth your time and/or breath to speak to!!! Just my 2cents worth. You go girl!!! Mr. Liam is the handsomest, extra chromosome having, naked (ok I haven’t seen him naked ) baby I have seen…next to Miss T of course ๐
Lynn says
I came here from the Football KAL and am completely speechless over this post! (naked) First of all, your baby is adorable!. That smile is KILLER! (naked) I just dont get some people. My son battles allergies and asthma during the winter months. I wish he didnt have that. That doesnt mean that I wish I didnt have HIM! You love your son and wish he didnt have the issues he (and you) have to deal with. It doesn’t mean that you wished you didnt have your son. (NAKED!)
Some people are very ignorant.
And there is a big difference between naked and sex. Naked means w/o clothing. Sex means SO much more. Again, ignorant. I love the other poster’s comments of penis. Let’s add that one too. PENIS!
marianne says
fucking unbelievable…’naked’ is a **naughty** bad word?
I am totally gobsmacked.
Liam is a beautiful baby boy btw, and those folks who would berate/condemn you for bringing this joyful soul into the world? they can go fuck themselves.
Yep, mouth of a sailor here, especially when I’m seriously offended by …outrageous stupidity.
I came over via Robin and I’m adding you to my bloglines, heh, I have my reasons, they’re all good, not to worry.
Chris says
I am sorry you have been put through these feelings at the hands of others. I wish people would chill out and just go with the flow. Some are all worried about what’s PC and correct that all speech is becoming stifled.
I say you need even more fiber therapy!
