Stephanie

@HannahWardEdu Now wondering if twilight influenced my decisions more than I realized 😬😅😂

Lol. Okay. Let me explain further. This probably makes it even weirder? Engaged at 17, married at 19, children at 21/24/25. (My husband and I are one month apart in age.) This was an incredibly calculated decision. My children were very planned and I had them that young on purpose, while still reaching professional and academic goals I had set for myself. (Currently finishing my third graduate degree, self-employed in my chosen academic development field). My husband and I were equal partners in all things if you average it out throughout the years. We both worked, both supported each other through school, both cared for babies (we didn't use outside childcare), both homeschooled, and we're both finishing our terminal degrees right now at 32. I knew I wanted to build a family at a young age, found a young man who wanted the same thing - and we did it with great success, even though most of our peers and elders thought it was a ridiculous concept.

@AspiringTitus2 It will get better! One of these mornings you’re going to wake up and everything will have just fallen into place.

Just want to get a hotel room by myself and sit in silence for a day or 2. If I could do it without my baby and husband suffering I would. Postpartum is kicking my ass.

@Elliesmommyy23 THE LITTLE HAT

Howdy Ma’am! 🤠🤠🤰🏻 Already a little Texan gentleman

@ouranometrian2 In summer, they never have to wear pants either so you’re saving yourself a ton of work

What if I did cloth diapers just because the covers are cute

@GreatLakesWife_ Nothing more spring than that!

We have a winter wreath on our door that I was going to take down now that it’s spring. But we just realized there’s a bird making a nest in it! Better leave it up I guess!

@Utterly_Jean 😍😅🥰

Chicks love convertibles

@Elliesmommyy23 I’m judging you v hard right now Bet it was super refreshing though 😂

I got a pickle lemonade at the Rodeo today if that isn’t the most pregnant thing ever 😂🥒🤠

@ouranometrian2 💀

Making one for each my kids but its an imprint of my perineum when I crown

@B2ARCHIVES @GovernorAnne Weird how many of you took this so personally

@stephs_here @GovernorAnne Everyone doesn’t hate themselves Stephanie

I imagine the most annoying part of parenthood must be all the Junk you accumulate so I am mystified when I see things like this where people are willingly accumulating even more Junk

@susoxo @GovernorAnne Did I say she was ugly? Or can you just not read and want to be cranky on the internet?

@stephs_here @GovernorAnne do you think there's no pregnant woman on earth who looked like you? is she disgusting too? this whole "i'm criticizing myself so it's okay" argument was ended years ago, when we had to remind people that their looks are not unique and others who look like them would be affected.

@GovernorAnne @evil_leander The SECOND you go off private this happens 😂 Also accurate

@evil_leander @stephs_here I think everybody here is speaking from their own perspectives *on themselves*. Like I said above, I am certain I would look terrible pregnant but of course there are an infinite number of women who have the proverbial glow and look amazing. And Steph’s on her like 18,000th kid

@Elliesmommyy23 He’s got the hair right, I’ll give him that 🥴🫠

@stephs_here HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Son just picked up my husbands phone and said “mommy!” I am less than thrilled

@susoxo @GovernorAnne I’m on my third pregnancy in three years I think I can talk about my pregnant self thanks

@stephs_here @GovernorAnne "ugly massive tummy" sure man let's hate on women's bodies more than we already do

@helloonhere @GovernorAnne Where did I say your tummy was ugly when pregnant? Did you make a stupid bowl?

@stephs_here @GovernorAnne damn some of us liked how we looked when pregnant

@StardewAddict @GovernorAnne I didn’t say her tummy was ugly lmao get over yourself

@stephs_here @GovernorAnne im ngl this is such a weird thing to say when talking about a video of a pregnant woman who is happily making a cute keepsake

@evil_leander @GovernorAnne Everyone else’s tummies are cute tho I’m on my third pregnancy in three years but ok you know everything

@stephs_here @GovernorAnne I hate the idea of pregnancy for myself too but the way you people sometimes talk about pregnant women, their bodies or pregnancy in general just because you personally don't wanna be pregnant is so fucking weird. "ugly massive tummy" shut up

@Elliesmommyy23 @GovernorAnne If you want to know how I look pregnant 💀

@stephs_here @GovernorAnne 😂😂 I’m sure you are!!

@DixieBearFren @Aristos_Revenge You can care about multiple things at once 😮

@Aristos_Revenge Maybe, but are you going to go choose to go after citizens who served our country whose fraud accounts for maybe $10 billion or would you rather prioritize going after the foreigners who are defrauding us for trillions? Which do you think hurts /our guys/ more?

@meatypepper Omg thank you

also a tip for iphone users who have young children who facetime family members: look into guided access. it's an accessibility setting thats built into your iphone. I have it set up so that way when I turn it on with the triple click, it locks the screen and my son cannot swipe out of the app or even click on anything at all. if you tap the screen nothing happens. they can still press the side button to close or open the phone but it should just go back to whatever video chat app you're using. also they can still press volume buttons and those will still work lol. to turn it off you just triple click the side button again and hit "end" at the top left to end the session and then you can hang up and use your phone as normal again. I have it so I have to input my phones passcode to end the session, in case my son happens to triple click the side button somehow.

@TreaderThe @KILLTOPARTY A lot of people commenting without knowing what children go through around deployments. Yeah there are some other issues clearly at play here but people should have more compassion for the situation

@KILLTOPARTY This could've been solved with setting her up beforehand with her favorite movie and snacks. A little forethought, playing catchup comforting their child enough before next deployment

Did she deserve hugs and kisses?
