Yay for A/S @marshain. Are you team green? Will you find out the sex? Do you know the sex and I'm an idiot and forgot?
Team green! I'll be the crazy person reminding the tech every 5 minutes not to tell us the sex and not show us any images of that area because H has read ultrasounds in the past so might be able to tell.
Lol she should probably just keep the screen facing away from you both then and take stills to show you things. I would be looking so hard for the sex organs that I'd obsess over it.
I'm trying to decide if I should start painting without my mom or just relax and not worry about it. She is coming over to help paint trim on our new wall, get pedicures and lunch, and bake brownies. My shower is tomorrow so they are setting up and decorating tonight.
Relax! Plenty of time to get that done.
Yum, brownies!
Do you know how many people are coming to your shower?
I'd say 40-50. A lot of kids too which I didn't expect. My mom needs to come up with things for the kids to do.
I ordered a watch from Saks for my H for Valentine's Day but apparently wasn't paying attention and charged our joint credit card instead of my individual card. I know it technically doesn't matter since married and all but I feel like I should feel bad for making him pay for his own present. FFFC- I'm pretty excited I don't have to pay for it and am thinking of something fun to do with that money instead
H is getting absolutely nothing for Valentine's Day.
We don't do Valentine's Day gifts. We basically don't do any holidays except birthdays and small things for Hanukkah/Christmas. Birthdays we do big(ger) gifts.
I do bake brownies for H pretty much every Valentine's Day and we try to make a "fancy" meal at home or go out the weekend before/after.

Our office is fancy in that they have a screen on the wall facing you so you don't have to contort to see the tech's screen. I might have her turn it off or tell us to close our eyes as needed.
onesweetworld - That's a ton of people! Will be super fun. I hope your host(s) have activities for the kids. Not your responsibility as the guest of honor to entertain them.
Hello and happy Friday y'all!! Had a 7:30am dentist appt, so that was fun. My dentist overheard me tell the hygienist I was KU and came in crying and gave me a hug, so then I cried, ha. Then I went to check on my horse and he's lame Decided I can work from home today after achieving all that before 9am, ha, so stopped at grocery store for tons of snacks and lunch and am now snuggled with puppies and laptop. Also MH is going skiing tomorrow with a friend and I'm SO excited to have the day to myself!!!

Yeah I would need her to turn that tv off. We have our 3D/4D on Tuesday, I'm so excited to see her.

Hopefully (s)he isn't like my boys... Oh, here's an excellent view of the heart! Let me get a... nevermind, he's showing his penis again 😂😂
onesweetworld - Gotcha. I'm assuming it would be preferred if they were in their own area/room and relatively quiet. So while I'm usually not a huge TV fan, I think a movie would keep most occupied, then have other quiet things like coloring/sticker books, puzzles, board games also in the area.

Our office has the same setup, and the tech told us when she was heading for "that area" and said we should close our eyes, then told us when it was safe to open. She was really great about it, and everyone since has always asked if we know before they look at our chart. I thought it would be hard to not find out accidentally, but no one has spilled the beans yet
I am upset that my H forgot to put up the leftovers last night. There goes my lunch and a waste of money. I know it is part my fault as I could have put them away but my husband was the last one to go to bed, and usually does it.
I'm RAGING right now. I'm on a call with my team (project manager and other business analysts) to go through tasks for the work plan, and the PM just gave me crap and told me "I can't do your BA work for you" because I can't tell her what the due dates are for requirements. That is NOT the BA job. That is the development team's job. Always.
Plus, what she and the lead BA asked for us to provide as far as work plans this week was "high-level steps" and no dates. So WTF.
She used the other BAs being able to give her ideas on dates as an example of me not doing my job. They don't have to work with two separate development teams who will not give me answers.
Ugh marshian that sounds super frustrating!! I also feel like people say more obnoxious things on the phone than in person and yet it's also harder to effectively respond, I've been frustrated on calls like that, I'm sorry!!
onesweetworld oh no! That's no good...are they offering any concessions or solutions or anything?!?

I'm getting a pedicure right now with my mom. Just before we left we found out the water is not working at my shower venue....this should be fun
I hope they get it fixed or offer up some kind of solution
I honestly don't know what the best solution is......i think getting a portable bathroom is probably the best solution we could come up with if it isn't working by noon tomorrow.
This reminds me of thanksgiving 2 years ago when I lost power the night before and didn't get it back until noon that day. I had to cook at my in laws.
wannabmama - Yeah I can't call her out on not doing her job or the other BAs for making up dates to appease her. I'm sure it's not as big a deal as I'm making it, it's just frustrating she does this crap in front of everyone and somehow it's never her fault.
I know I'm being petty and selfish but I'm extremely annoyed that my MIL hasn't offered to buy a damn thing for this baby.
My grandparents, who don't have much money, offered to buy our dresser and other things. My MIL has barely acknowledged this baby's existence (unless it's to bug for my exact EDD or where I'm delivering so she can stalk the hospital). It bugs me to no end, solely because 1) it's my MIL, and 2) she was bitching when I was pregnant with DS1 that all the stuff she wanted to buy was already bought by the time I hit 3rd tri.
This all stems from me being worried that she's going to continue to spoil DS1 and look over DS2.
hpnegirl - that's so annoying! I just assumed each set of grandparents would love to buy stuff!
@marshain - just mentioning the word "PM" makes me think of DHs job and I shudder. It sucks.
I just woke up because I couldn't sleep all night. I'm in a panic because I stopped supplementing fish oil in first tri because I ran out and was on 600090 pills. My diet is so limited because of my food restrictions and I'm flipping out because I'm convinced I've impaired neurological functioning in the babies. Ugh. I'm trying to apply the whole "I didn't supplement and you kids were fine" from back in the day.
silvermelody - I'm sure it was terrifying. I'm glad you had the skills to do what you could until the paramedics arrived.
It was the worst day of my life. During the worst part I was praying to a God I don't even really believe in anymore. But I was also able to function and do what the 911 operator said.
Noodles and a tangerine slice were the culprits ( not sure which), both foods he had before. Noodles were cut up.
