Today Julie and I got to hear our baby's heartbeat for the first time, it was 150bpm. It was so weird to hear it that we just laughed. Every time I would laugh the baby would roll over so you'd hear a loud thump and then the heart beat woosh woosh would be back. It was one of the weirdest but coolest things of my life! There is a little baby in there. 😍😍😍 We couldn't be more excited, and blessed. We are thankful to everyone who has supported and helped us on this journey. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
It's Thursday But I've got lots of feels today. Going to see my mom after work to try and help cheer her up. Also I need my body to cooperate and start my period so we can get this mock cycle show on the freaking road.

rikkiandjulie I kept thinking today was Friday too! And so happy for you!!!!
TW: miscarriage
Omg so many feels today. Definitely emotional. My bff recently had a miscarriage but it didn't all come out so today she learned she has to have a d&c only after bleeding and puking everywhere in front of her 2.5 year old. My heart wanted to help her so much. She went through hell to try and miscarry on her own to avoid a d&c only to have to have one after all.
Then with everything going on tomorrow (IUI and mole removal on my face) I'm feeling pretty overwhelmed. All while still being in excruciating pain from my thrown out back and knowing after tomorrow I can't use heat or pills the way I've been surviving this week. I'm so nervous about my uterine lining being thin and just feeling like what's wrong with me. Sorry for the huge vent today was just a rough day (and overall rough week)!

This has felt like a slow week. I can totally get being off a day.
So, M started back scooting this week and it's adorable. She enjoys tummy time a whole lot more. It's so much fun to watch her explore. And she blows raspberries and sticks out her tongue. Who knew baby tongues could be so cute.
CT has been obsessing about a mileage run to Sri Lanka in 2017. She's been talking about that a lot and I've been listening.....most of the time.

I am excited for tomorrow. A few of our mom friends that we made through swim team/school are getting together to do one of those paint/drink things. I am not into the painting part, but the drinking part I am down with. Plus, I think our kids are spending the night at a friend's house. If we get done early, L and I might go see a movie.
We are getting an estimate on new windows tomorrow. It isn't how I want to spend that kind of money.
At some point the kids and I are going to our friends house to swim/hang out. L doesn't want to go which is awkward.
Aside from some possible residual hurricane rain, it is supposed to be beautiful this weekend and not as hot. WHOOO HOOO.

Agreed! 2brides I'm a horrible artist but something about those events sounds really fun, even though I'll likely need to throw out may "painting" I create.

2brides, Let us know how the wine paint night is. I've been curious about going to one.
I went for my birthday last year! It was really fun but for me the pace was a little fast between the instruction, mixing of the colors, and time to create. I'd still go again though!!

Tired... is 3 months too early to start the teething thing? Not that I think her teeth are coming through but she's been extra fussy lately and everything is going in her mouth but not in an exploring or hungry way, in a "I want to maw at this thing to scratch an itch" way. She's also been flipping about being horizontal in the evenings - change table, arms, play mat, it doesn't matter - that one is strange.
Not feeling so hot today.... I think our weeks 'vacation' in Ontario was a bit much for me. I pretty well slept all day, and haven't been feeling good at all.... Ugh!
I'm feeling sad. My time off is essentially over. I worked for a few hours today and only have Monday off until I'm back full time plus my weekend job.
I'm grateful to have the time we had but 2 weeks is a joke to pretend that we are good as a family of 4 with a newborn.

Sorry you don't have more time off! That stinks. Hope your daughter is adjusting well.
