Saturday should be for sitting.

My husband and 5 of our family members have been working in my backyard since 7:30 am building a deck. I am upstairs watching TV. I kind of feel like a lazy asshole. But I am literally no help in this situation.

But here I am getting ready to go try on bridesmaids dresses for my brothers wedding. It's 2 weeks PP, how should I plan my size??

Maybe you can buy a dress of the same color but that's flowy? I wouldn't even know how big my boobs could be at that point. But err on the side of a size too big!

I was up last night from 2-4 am. And DS woke up today like clockwork at 6 am. I need to run errands but then plan on napping along with him. So tired and lazy. And it's cold today! We have a party later today and I hope it's not outside.

This makes sense to me. You never know if LO will arrive on time, early, or late, and everyone's body reacts differently in terms of returning to pre-baby size. It's easier to take a dress in a little than to let it out!

I just got a haircut, and it looks pretty good if I do say so myself!

I think this is a victory because it feels like I might be coming down with a cold, and I wasn't sure I would make it out of the house at all today. Also, the salon is at the mall and I treated myself to a Cinnabon, so today is turning out to be lovely after all.

I was just weeding outside, I had to pull one group of weeds extra hard and when I did eight newborn bunnies went flying everywhere. I didn't realize there was a nest there. I managed to gently put them back into the area where they had come from and cover them so they weren't exposed. My mom and DH are now making fun of me for being so sad about possibly hurting/killing these bunnies.

We're headed to the Wisconsin Dells tomorrow though Wednesday, so I'm packing today. My 8 year old has no underwear, despite being the person I buy underwear for the most in this house. She should have several dozen pair, but can't find any. So she's spending the day cleaning her room to find them all.

I'm headed out with a friend in a few hours, and I'm very excited to be away from people who can't seem to do anything without my help for a little while.

DH is visiting MIL at the hospital, so DS and I are having a mommy & me day. We played inside, outside, and went for a long walk this morning. Nap for both of us after lunch. First tri exhaustion has been rough today! DS woke up about an hour early from his nap, so I'm hoping we don't have a rough afternoon.

Oh no! Poor bunnies! I would worry about them too.

I'm back to being awake at odd hrs of the night. And my back is constantly achy. Last night we went to my cousins' party. My aunts kept asking me about getting pregnant and 1 of them knew I was because of my brothers fb message. By the end of the night I just went ahead and told everyone. I got a lot of "we can tell from your face". Everyone was happy for us esp after I said I was 9 wks. So that was my announcement. I was this close to buying DS the big brother shirt last night.

I'm sorry they forced it out of you, but that's nice you got to tell people in-person!

Go big! You can always take in!
