This one has been a busy one. We had a family Easter out of town, and because I'm going to be at a conference end of next week/end I scheduled clients around the Easter trip. We're just driving home now. I'd settle for Is having a nap at this point - she's not impressed.

We just had dim sum with a Chinese friend from school, her husband, and her parents who are here visiting from China. It's so fun going to dim sum with them because they can figure out all the good food to get. Now we're about to go into BRU to get a few of the last things on our registry. Then we'll head home to finish our baby shower thank yous. Even though we have about 5 weeks left I feel like it's crunch time because I know so many people that went early so I just want to be ready! We don't even have a name yet!! 😝

@carlsurb- CET is just finishing up yard work too! I think putting down mulch is so satisfying.
M is fairly fussy. One minute she's happy and the next she's not. I think she's still working on feeling better. But we managed to go for an 8mi run this morning. She either wants me to hold her or be in her stroller, it seems. Putting M down for a nap now.

cetcar no, the problem is we really can't agree on any names. We have a list but none where we're both like yes we'd be happy with this. We maybe have a first name but now need a middle to go with it. So I feel like we're close but I don't know. 😝

calsurb hmmm there were these rolls where the outside was tofu and the inside was meat and shrimp. Those were soooooo good! There were so many things I loved though. DW is much pickier though so she liked it but didn't love it. Also I wanted to eat the sweet things with custard but I'm too anal about not eating raw eggs right now.

We have three names we really like, but decided to name her after we meet her. It think that is driving some family crazy, but I feel pretty strongly about it. Naming another human is hard!

JustJudy I originally wanted to go into the hospital with 2 names and then decide when we meet her but at this point if we can even agree on 1 it will be a miracle lol. Either way we didn't plan on telling people the name in advance!!

This was us!! It is super tough.
JustJudy Yay for seeing movement!!! That's so cool.
Is ended up napping when we got home. She and H are out grocery shopping now, yay for an hour of "me" time!
After one week back at work I realize all the cuteness I took for granted when I was home. I think I'll love and appreciate the weekends more now, even when they are busy.

JustJudy isn't it so fun seeing the movement?! Mine is just getting more and more intense and like last night when I was trying to sleep she was legit having a party.

Yes! That happened to me last night too. I was so ready to fall asleep and then she was hitting both sides at the same time, made it a little difficult to actually sleep.

We also had a hard time agreeing. We liked different types of names. M softer and CET a little stronger sounding like Taylor, Madison, and Kensington. M's name was a compromise but we both really like it. We went to the hospital with two choices but one that was clearly in first. We picked her middle name early, it is a family name. We didn't tell anyone until after she was born.
Anyone care to share names that you can't agree on?
We have multiple videos of M moving around in my belly. At times she was so active!
We've had a bit of a rough day with M. We think the antibiotics are upsetting her stomach and she's been fussy. We're going on a 3hr nap sleeping on me and it's the most peaceful she's been all day. Planned to go to the grocery store but that's not happening. Take out for dinner.

Did yard work (picked up dog poo and put down more fertilizer). Worked out a little, I've maxed out my free weights and need to buy a 45# plates. I worked for a few hours today on my side job. Kass watched some TV and did some cleaning. Yesterday we went a little crazy buying stuff but we are now set clothes wise until we find out the gender and buy some gender specific stuff. On to the bigger ticket items next.

cetcar that's funny cause CET's name likes are really similar to mine and DW likes a different style. Like Kensington was actually on my list but DW doesn't love it. (A nickname for it is the biggest thing we agree on so we were looking for long names that work with that.) I know I'm being cryptic lol. And I love Madison but not the nickname Maddie... So yeah. We're not really sharing ideas though. 😝

rosesquared- Too funny that Kensington was on your list. I'll have to tell CET. I think she thought she made it up. She really likes the nickname Kenzie. Totally get being cryptic. We didn't share until afterwards and I was asked all the time when I was pregnant.

Hope everyone has a great Sunday!
There is an app called BabyNames its yellow with an egg. You each create an account and the. Each of you swipe right if you like and left if you don't. It then makes a list of all the names you agree on. Its really neat and we ended finding more that we both liked than we thought.

Errands and haircuts for the kids for school pics this week
A soccer game
School projects that needed finishing
Swim team practice
I helped a friend move her new mattress into her place
