4th of July weekend randoms

[littlesthobo]

rungirlrun hugs, as if the physical part of moving wasn't hard enough! Your DS will adjust but it will take time. Maybe you can make a game out of exploring the house/neighbourhood, like a scavenger hunt or something (eg find a park! Find an ice cream shop!). I hope everyone adjusts soon and you guys feel more settled!

[littlesthobo]

I feel like my DS is growing in leaps and bounds these past couple of days. He's refused to sleep in the pack n play here at the cottage so we've rigged up a bed for him. He's drinking out of water bottles and cups instead of sippies. And forget the high chair!

[cabbagecabbage]

I've tried to call my sister and my mom to chat and no one is answering. It's not like I'm 9 months pregnant or anything.

[sarcaztic10]

H and L want to go see Finding Dory today in 3D... I am trying to argue that 3D is unnecessary. It also just hit me that I won't be able to have any of the movie theater popcorn. I think I will make some stovetop dairy free popcorn and smuggle it in if we go. I really want to get the car seat installed today before we get side tracked.

Later tonight we will set off some fireworks.

[cavewmn]

Terrible sleep last night. Contracting some but to far apart to think anything will happen.

[tootsie]

I'm about to lose it, y'all. My mother effing H went out of town early this morning. Pretty sure he took both sets of MY keys. So there goes all of my plans with DD, no pool, no movie, no doing a goddamn thing. We can walk to the park, but it's 100 degrees, so yeah. Great. And that mofo isn't even answering his phone! Who goes 6 fucking hours away from their 9 month pregnant wife without even charging their phone?!?

Fuuuuuuuck

I hate 3D, it always gives me a headache. I'm on your side, lol.

[sarcaztic10]

tootsie OMG I would be so upset! I'm sorry that your plans are shot for today. I would give H an earful when he answers the phone.

One car seat base in one to go. It's so freaking hot outside I start sweating as soon as I get out there!

Give him alllllll the rage!!!!!  I would be so pissed!!!!

[ellebelle]

Omg tootsie. That's ridiculous!

[tootsie]

Ok, update: I found the extra set in the cushions of H's chair! So let the record show that I'm still extremely pissed because he took/misplaced both sets, but at least now our weekend isn't completely shot. I seriously hate him for not answering his phone right now.

I breathed a sigh of relief for you with the keys but the phone thing is not ok! I gave my mom and sister some good natured crap for not answering my calls today but spouses really have no excuse in the ninth month of pregnancy. Dude. Doooood.

I mean it's not like you may need him for anything right? Glad you found the keys, but I'd be massively ticked off about him not answering the phone.

H was such a whiny little princess all yesterday, I almost forgot which one of us is the pregnant one. He kept talking about how tired he was so he didn't want to build baby furniture, and then he was bitching about the ice that comes out of the freezer. He doesn't like how small the pieces get because they hurt his teeth so he wanted to get ice trays and take up space in the already small freezer section instead of using the automatic dispenser...maaajor eye rolls from me, which only made him more pissy lol. He's off work in about an hour but told me not to plan anything because he'll be tired, so I'm just going to go run errands so that the princess can get his beauty sleep

[housecarder]

tootsie sounds like my H. I would go off on him because he refused to set up his voicemail and never answered his phone. I'm so happy I didn't go into labor or something at work because I wouldn't have had my cell and would have had to call instead of text.

[katelou]

Omg tootsie! I'm so glad you found a set.

And... he ripped out a bathroom a week before going out of town? Ugh

[housecarder]

mcktymck I am so unsympathetic when H complains because he always complains about things like a cold like he has Ebola. Major eye rolls to your H too.

[glaze]

rungirlrun hugs, I hope things go smoother with the move from here on out.

katelou I hope your H comes to his senses. It's not a time for you to be doing things to please your IL's! I only trusted my parents or my H with the kids while I was in the hospital because like you said vulnerable and emotional! Also my DD took me being in the hospital pretty hard and she needed the stability.

tootsie I would be so mad, your H better have good reason for not answering his phone!


My parents took the 2 oldest kids to a 4th of July party this afternoon so H and I are sitting around enjoying the quiet and snuggling our little peanut!

Lol DH started to complain that he had a sore pelvis yesterday. He said "you have no idea how sore I am right now..."

Until I gave him this face lol

Just found out Verizon lowered the price on their data plans and had been overcharging me for the past 2 bills. I was over paying $70 and they just let me... At least they credited my account for all of the overpayment and now my bill is a lot lower.

Yep, low and behold, my H's voicemail is also not set up.

[rungirlrun]

tootsie omg I would kill my husband. And you're nicer than me - there would be no way I'd let him go out of town being this pregnant!

On a random note, after the baby boom last week, I can't believe there haven't been any labor posts this weekend!

[housecarder]

I put Finn in the onesie that I announced my pregnancy to H with today. It said "Little Firecracker" since I was due in July. H about cried.

[housecarder]

Oh and my wedding rings fit again!!!

[lostinfaith225]

Maybe there will be a baby boom tomorrow!

My 20 year old brother also lives here, during summers between college. He got home from work today and plopped down next to me and was like "ugh I am so tired. I hate having to work and go to school at the same time. I just want to sleep." (He's taking a few summer classes).

I gave him the worlds tiniest violin gesture. Lol.

It's funny how it's all a matter of perspective. My H and I were talking the other day about how busy we thought we were before having kids. We felt like we were always on the go and never slept enough. Yeah, we laugh at our weak selves now as I'm super pregnant with a toddler and no amount of sleep will ever be enough. But in a few weeks , I'll be wishing I could go back to only being pregnant with a toddler!

Just popping in during the middle of the night. We have been busy hanging out with my husbands extended family all weekend it been super fun to watch DD play with her second cousin who is just a couple months younger. We went to the zoo and tomorrow to a 4th of July festival and probably even fireworks.
