Long weekend wahoo! Day 3 of camping and I got my first sunburn. Ouch! But it's been beautiful and I can't complain - also, slept waaaay better last night so that's a plus
We went to IKEA and came home with 4 shelving units and a TV base. 3 hours later my husband is 50% done with one item.
My husband wouldn't have gotten that far. That's why I made sure all the baby furniture was here before I got to big and uncomfortable to put it together myself.
Hey ladies. I got a pedicure and had a nice lunch with my girlfriends (in lieu of a baby shower). A few chipped in together and got me a wine fridge, and the rest brought bottles of wine to fill it. My friends know me too well. I decided to come home and make myself a wine spritzer. So hard drinking only one. 60 days left til my RCS!

Was up at 4 am short of breathe...fun times! The police were having a child safety event so we had the professionals install the car seat. Then we checked out some creepy ruins and an old church in the forest. We got freaked out and left quickly lol!

tikoberry99 I woke up short of breath too. It was scary. I had rolled onto my back.
I've been going all day long which is a lot for me. We had an outdoor play date 10:30-1 at a friend's and the had a quick lunch and DD was so filthy she got a bath. Then we had a kid's birthday party 3-5. I'm going to work 6-9 and I bet DD will crash out hard for my H. It's been a really fun day but I was hoping to get cut tonight which happens about 25% of the time but, of course, I'm on. I can do three hours though.
I fell asleep at 730 last night and slept better than I had in a while. Has a busy day keeping J entertained while H ran errands. Poor little guy woke up from his nap with a fever and I am hoping it is just his molars working their way through. I let him veg in front of the t.v. much of the afternoon while I sorted and put away baby clothes. Little girl's room is ready for her. Now J is in bed, so we are going to watch a movie and eat some cake.
I went out with my two best friends last night and got home around 11. Thankfully I slept in so it was a lazy morning. After DS's nap we took him to get his hair cut and had lunch with my parents. Today was pretty chill and I loved it
mcktymck didn't you just buy an off brand Roomba? Which one did you get? Do you still like it?
I did! This is the one we got and so far I'm pleased with it for the price. Every now and then it'll get itself wedged under our couch and I'll have to rescue it, and it struggles to go back to it's home base sometimes but overall it's great. It doesn't do a very good job with the rug but I didn't really expect it to based off other reviews.

We have a great industrial strength vacuum, but with two cats and a German shepherd/ malamute mix the pet hair is crazy. With me being on modified bed rest it's hard to keep up with the hair and H can't do everything. I think the same will happen once the twins are here.
I think it would be a great investment to have run nightly just for hair and cat litter that they drag out on their feet sometimes so I don't have to worry about the babies ending up with a drool/hair beard every time they do tummy time. I couldn't justify the Roomba costs for a second vacuum but I think $160 for our sanity is worth it.
I overdid it activity wise today and as a result ended up with bh contractions that had me doubled over in the middle of walking. So now I'm sitting on my exercise ball drinking water and waiting for them to settle down. Fun times!
I am so tired. We moved all our stuff out of storage today. We have one more showing tomorrow but I don't give any more fucks. This is basically what all my house looks like and we're officially off the market on Monday. Now I'll have to research charter schools for DD1 in my spare time.
ellebelle sorry your house didn't sell. It's so stressful trying to sell.
Thanks. My throat still hurts badly. The cough makes it worse. Pain in my ear now. I have an ob appt tomorrow. Going to ask her to check me for strep. Blah.
Hey ladies. I had another sale on Friday/Saturday so I feel constantly busy. There's nothing going on here, other than my concern that this kid is going to show up early. I keep getting really strong downward pressure, and I know I'm overdoing it picking up a 25lb+ toddler along with everything else, but I'm not really seeing a solution. Soooo....
We finally bit the bullet and traded my car in. I cried. Legitimately cried. I had the last year of the old style mustangs, it was in mint condition. I'm still a little dead inside over this adult decision that I did not want to make.
Still raining here today. I did laundry, made breakfast, fed DS, and went to shop rite. Came home and DH is still sleeping. I'll let him have another half hour since he stayed out until 2 last night, but then I'm waking his ass up. He's in for a rude awakening when #2 gets here!

I would have cried too! I had to give up my mustang when I was pregnant with Jack and it wasn't nearly as nice.

I cried when we traded in my car too TheTuna15, only mine was a 13 year old Volvo wagon. It needed too much work but I loved that thing fiercely. Now I drive DH's old Focus and I hate it but it's reliable.
Today is errands day. I'm wearing maternity shorts for the first time ever. I sized up but my legs look and feel like sausages.
My calendar reminded me that my kid's friend's birthday party is today. The mom told me to save the date but then never actually invited us. Uh, weird much?
In exciting news, I cleaned out my wallet and found a TJMAXX gift card. The silver code isn't scratched off the back, so I think it's unused. Score! My mom sends me those every so often, so hopefully I get to do a little free shopping!

Yesterday was our anniversary, and my H and I celebrated at good friends' wedding. It was awesome to have a kid-free weekend and to get to see so many friends who I don't see much (I'm back on the east coast for 2 weeks). I enjoyed a heavenly glass of champagne!
Apparently some wedding guests I didn't know were placing bets on whether I was going to go into labor from dancing. Then someone else said I was really small. People love talking about pregnant women!
