Spammin' Saturday!

[Irishcurls]

I have a spam-worthy question! Have I missed some easy linky to a sig tutorial around here? I tried just using HTML codes I googled but that doesn't seem to work well.....ahh so much to get used to.

It's snowing here, even though we were supposed to get "wintry mix" for another few hours. Nope. Fluffy and white. I'm getting bacon and eggs for breakfast and then getting cozy with my book!!

[aggiebug]

Its BBCode over here not HTML. So it should look like [*/img] (and that code right there is how you post an image to your siggy, to your post and also how you post a gif)

[aggiebug]

Whatcha reading?

Our winter mix is most definitely rain, but I can still turn on the fire and snuggle in my comfy chair with a book this morning

Thankfully H wants a lazy Saturday which I am quite content with

[calliope]

I don't like on the mobile app how I can't see polls. :-P

Baby has worn a bruised spot under my ribs. So painful! Glad to have only 4 more weeks left till EDD as of today. Also, I'm getting my hair done for the first time since April. Woohoo! Definitely overdue for a cut. My bangs are ridiculous.

[abb1701]

I hate being stuck on mobile. That generic avatar is annoying!

DH is working today so I'm gonna start some house cleaning and then "ask" him for help when he gets home. But currently I'm still in bed. I think my urge to nest is fighting my urge to relax. I wonder whose going to win.

I have been up since 6 because Clover the dog has the smallest bladder ever. Today we are making freezer meals and going to visit DH's grandma in the hospital. She still can't walk or talk but she is trying to feed herself which is good. Other than that we are going on a walk with the pups and relaxing. I can't help but think everyday that this could be THE day that LO makes his arrival. It's definitely crazy how our birth announcements are coming more frequently now! So exciting!

Its rainy here today and I have to go to the store... I hate shopping in the rain.

On a good note, my mom and sister have volunteered to take DS to some indoor bounce place to let me get some much needed rest

You use tapatalk? I don't so someone else may be of help, but I saw some tips in one of the top stickies I think.  There are dots in the upper corner and you click on it and can change the view so you can see polls. 

Happy hair cut! I got mine cut on Tuesday and it feels wonderful

[flyster]

We've got 4-6 inches of fluffy white, which was way more then expected as well. I think its supposed to turn to ice at some point,s o I"m really hoping baby decides not to try and make an appearance this weekend. The road is plowed, so that is good, and our in-laws gave us their old snow blower so it looks like we can at least get out.

Our couch is supposed to be delivered today! So excited that we might have an actual living room set up after almost 4 months of living in the house!

If you can change the view to descktop view you should be able to change your avatar.  

I use my mobile browser ( actually google chrome not the stock browser) and just confirmed I can change my avatar that way.  It is easiest if you have the picture you want saved some place like tinypic.

On the school bus with my scholar bowl team. Teenage boys this early in the morning is giving me a glimpse into my future! I bought them doughnuts....may not have been the best idea because they already have energy to spare at 730 am.

[lotsofdotts]

Good morning, ladies!

We have so much we should do today, but I'm not feeling the motivation yet. DH and I are watching the last episode of American Horror Story right now, but we have to get off our arses and clean this house. It is gross.

Tonight some of our friends are having a get together for us so that we can hang out at least one more time before the baby gets here. I'm excited to get some adult time. It doesn't happen often enough these days.

[dreemkin]

No plans this weekend...it's so weird. I will probably just do a few loads of towels.

I was able to take monday off and then I'm scheduled Thursday & Friday so I'm hoping I worked my last day. We shall see.

In Tapatalk, you click on the dots in the upper right and choose web view to see polls. That is as far as I have gotten though, not sure about changing an avatar.

I have a cold and woke up at 5. I am going to try to get some work done this am as next week is my last in the office for awhile and I am behind. We have plans with friends tonight though!

[ambz06060]

dbjackson25 it's a little selfish, but with all the announcements I can't finally get my post count up I am happy for them though.

Lazy day here. DH is snowmobiling up north, so it's me and the pups. I do have grading to do.

Little vent: I love my mom, and initially I asked her to be in the delivery room too (with DH too) but I think I just want her there during labor just in case DH needs a break or I do from him. I told her last night and she said "no, I'm gonna be when he's delivered." I was really shocked. I know my sister was shocked too, so at least I have some support when I try to tell her again. DH is very adamant that it is just is when he's delivered and now I agree. He already doesn't "care" for my mom a little, so I'm nervous to tell him.

[wanderinga]

Good morning! Adeline woke up about an hour earlier then she normally does and my one cup of coffee doesn't seem to be compensating for the difference.

Lazy day here as well, we didn't get snow, just a nasty freezing rain. We are all still in our PJs and plan on staying put as long as possible. Hopefully I find the motivation to finish m math homework today!

[dramacat]

I'm 36 weeks today! I feel like it's a huge accomplishment and somehow more impressive than 35 weeks. Not sure why.

I'm off to Cincinnati today to visit my family. They wanted to have a little get together/shower with just my family and Aunt. I'm just excited to see them all. They went back to Puerto Rico to be with our extended family for Christmas, so I haven't seen them in months. Also, my Aunt is cooking, so I get delicious Puerto Rican food today!

First day of maternity leave! I'm not sure I'll put my name back on the on-call list when I get back. I'm looking forward to a few months of being middle of the night call free. I keep telling myself that all those calls for the past 3.5 years have been good preparation for dealing with baby in the middle of the night.

I found non-alcoholic pear cider (like a hard pear cider with the alcohol removed). I'm deliriously excited to try it. Wishing I'd found some months ago because non-alcoholic beer tastes terrible.

[mels823]

Happy Saturday!

Small snow storm going on here today. I'm excited to spend the whole day at home with the husband and baby. We ventured out yesterday to do some shopping and we ended up on impulse buying a fancy DSLR camera that neither of us know how to use.... maybe today I will play around with it! Dog and baby photoshoot time!

I should focus on doing some cleaning (my nesting instinct finally kicked in 9 days after having the baby). One of my friends asked to come visit with her mom tomorrow, which I agreed to, but I know they will probably stay here for hours. Other than close family members, I really don't want anyone staying too long when they visit. It makes me feel obligated to put on a bra and real pants, and entertain which I have no interest in doing. Does that make me awful?? I have to pump every 2 hours right now and it's not something I feel like doing with visitors over, but I don't know how to nicely say "thanks for driving an hour here, now go home!". I'm exhausted, getting maybe 4 or 5 (if I'm lucky) hours of sleep a night that are broken up by 1 hour sessions of pumping and feeding. I just want to nap but these visitors never leave! *rant over*.

[abb1701]

ambz06060 I'm kinda in the same boat. DH wants it to be just us and my mom wants in for the whole thing. I told DH that if it's that important then he can bring it up (which I know he wont.) But I went ahead and told my mom that she can be there for delivery but the second he's out she needs to leave. I explained that those first hours were just for myself and DH for bonding, feeding, etc. We plan to call her when we're ready for visitors so she can tell the family. Hopefully that's how it will go but you never know whats going to happen.

[kbelly777]

wanderinga my year and a half year old was up an hour early this morning too. I have know idea how she has so much energy in the mornings. Especially this morning cause she went to bed late last night.

missys I was a high school teacher in a past life and those teenage boys always did give me a run for my money. They are such a different beast from the teenage girls though. Good luck today!

My random is that I'm 39 weeks 2 days today and I think I'm coming down with strep throat .

[miniwheat]

wanderinga My DD is also waking an hour earlier this week. Its painful!
I am hoping to go over to my in-laws today and kill some time. They are so good at tiring our 2 year old out. I am so low energy I need help keeping her occupied during the day. I am trying to keep the TV to a minimum cause I know when DS gets here I will end up letting her watch more Mickey Mouse than I would like.

DD's ski adventure yesterday was so awesome! DH usually takes her as I work during the day but I got to finally tag along until I can ski with them. Because she is so young, so many people stop her and high five her etc. No wonder she loves it! She gets so much attention! I felt so proud of her. Then we let her run around the chalet with the other kids over lunch. It was a good day!

[babycfeb2015]

DH just woke me up with cinnamon rolls and starbucks. Great start to the weekend!

[mels823]

babycfeb2015 I am so jealous! Cinnamon rolls are my favorite!!

[sccurrier]

Not gonna lie.... I've never seen snow. I live in the not cold part of AZ and we're currently experiencing highs in the 70s and lows in the 50s. Don't worry, all the snowbirds come down and ruin good weather for us by wreaking havoc in grocery stores, restaurants and on the roads.

I have nothing on my to-do list today, it's more of a- all the shit I SHOULD get done today but probably won't list. The kids are still sleeping and honestly I'm just enjoying the quiet being up early.

[cloe111479]

Mmmm... Cinnamon rolls. Now I want some.

It rained so much the past few days here our backyard is a giant puddle. I have to police the fur baby, zoey, time outside. Hopefully it will drain and dry by tomorrow.

Work shower today! I'm happy to have it and have a fun day with my work folks.

[hollydfromtn]

Well pregsomnia struck again around 4:30 this morning. I was finally able to fall back asleep around 8 and now I'm up again. On the bright side I did some major craigslist stalking and found some hopefully really great deals that I will be emailing about today. One of them in particular is a brand new ergo that she said her son hated so it was only used 2x for $60. Fx it hasn't sold yet.

[lilyelayne]

All your snow / wintry mix posts make me extra grateful for the sunshine here, even if it is cold outside.

Currently cuddled up on our brand new couch with my dog, but soon I need to get up and finish the nursery. Had a baby shower at work this week so there are gift bags everywhere. Maybe afterward I can convince myself to do meal planning for the week & go to the grocery - typically a Sunday chore, but I told myself if I do it today I'll get supplies to make my first king cake of the season. King cake is yeast bread in disguise so it's a time intensive process, not something I would do on a Sunday evening.

On another note, loving all our birth announcements!

[cogdis]

G'morning ladies! I want cinnamon rolls now! Gonna make blueberry pancakes instead.

I'm not posting much because I'm so freaking swollen it hurts! Sometimes I can't even make fists with my hands! But my BP is fine and it is just a normal pregnancy experience that will go away once baby is born, so nothing to worry about. I'm almost 38 weeks and 40wks couldn't get here fast enough! Although I just told the little guy yesterday that he's welcome to stay in there as long as he needs to be as healthy and strong as he can be ... My luck he heard me and will decide to stay to 42! Lol.

Have a good Saturday everyone!
