I'm at the airport. We're headed to a wedding. I had to wake up at 4 am which is way.too.early.for.me. We board in about 20 min, and I plan to pass out before we have even left.
I'm taking DS to the park this morning then we're stopping at the farmer's market. I swear I've spent more time at farmer's markets in the past 6 weeks than in my whole life combined. I've been craving fruit like crazy. Yesterday I ate 2 oranges, a peach, a cup of raspberries and some pineapple. It's time to restock!

caer, I wish I was craving fruit. I'm craving everything that's awful for me. This morning, I stopped and got a donut on the way to work. This is another reason I'm ready for H to be home. I've eaten awful while he's been gone. He's the one that usually helps me stay on track.
Then again, I'm still kind of in survival mode in the first tri with my nausea so I know I'll do better once I get over the hump of feeling like crap.

Oh, my other craving is carbs. So I've been eating my fair share of donuts, pizza, all that stuff. And even with the max dose of meds, I need to eat ALL DAY or I get pukey. So don't worry, I'm in the same boat! I agree, first tri is about survival. You do what you need to do to get through.
Yay, for the first time in eight days, I'm not at work at this hour (So nice to wake up at 5am instead of 2:30a)
glb30, I hope you are already asleep I love flying.. used to love it more though. The turbulence feels a lot more bumpy when I have my precious children with me.
ladytiffany24, yay for end of business trips! Breaks in parenting are insanely vital. Funny enough, during pregnancy, it is usually my h that messes up my eating. I had so much trouble eating at all during the twins pregnancy that now he just shoves food at me.. all the food. ><
kinipela7, I swear, we've turned into hobbits. Second breakfast is vital.. as is second lunch.. I didn't eat another small bit between lunch and dinner last night and I was shaking like a leaf by the time we were ready to eat ><
., I love that you have yelling at your OB's office on your schedule for the day. lol
callmeKD, yay dinner out! Oh I adore you.. you just reminded me that even though I have to work tomorrow morning, tomorrow is my dh and I's date day. Our teenagers give us a few hours to go out together every other weekend That has happened in two months because of .. life.
@justinslovo, mmhhh Cracker Barrel. I haven't seen one of those in years. I'm with you on the housework though.. soo much to do.
Today I have to get the teens extracurricular activities scheduled. Housework needs to be done. I'm setting a goal to pack up two boxes of things we will not be using any time soon. We want to move closer to DH's work next spring and DH is determined to rent a storage space to start that process.. considering this tiny one will be just a month old when we move.
Past that.. hoping to get all four girls down to the pool today. Always fun, always exhausting

Fri-yay is right! Long weekend with no set plans? Yessssss! Today will be preschool for E, I have a baby appt, and then basically nothing, glorious nothing, for the rest of the weekend. I'm sure we'll fill it up. Hopefully with naps.

First pair of maternity pants arrived yesterday. Why on earth I waited so long, I don't know. These things are amazing! Why aren't all pants elastic waistband?!
My mom is visiting this weekend! She comes in tomorrow morning! Clara pooped on the potty this morning! (We want to start potty training but can't until she grows out of the fear of the potty at daycare). I hope to get out of work early today.

I bought a pair of Jessica Simpson pants at Motherhood Maternity while on vacation last week and OMG these are comfy. They are so soft. And I even got to size down!
I posted this in the "sex" thread but guys! I got the call about my genetic test results yesterday while at the grocery store. I was so nervous and so relieved when they said everything came back normal!! And in such disbelief when she told me we're having a boy!! I cried at the grocery store. 😂 Today I have anxiety about having a boy! I know it'll be awesome and logically I'm not worried I just have this weird excited/anxious feeling today haha And I'm at work today - I'll finally tell them all next week I think. Half of our office is out sick today (and yesterday) and I'm just looking forward to a long weekend! Going to a concert at a local winery tomorrow!
@justinslovo solo travel is awesome. I travel occasionally for work- about once a month. It's really nice to have a random night of room service, tv and early bed. (And I don't even have kids!!)
missi you normally wake up at 2:30 am??? OMG. And I did fall a sleep the moment I sat down, and didn't wake up til we landed!
moutonrouge I think I'm ordering my first pair soon.....I'm pretty pumped.
renegadewhit yayayayaya! So glad you are home- enjoy it!
elsmom yay for the awesome results!!!! And team blue- how exciting!

Yeah.. daycare would be too expensive with twins and my older girls love being virtual students.. so I'm a stay at home mom first and foremost. The only time I can earn any extra money is from 3am to 8:30a whatever days they schedule me I didn't used to be a morning person.. life forced it.

My OB didn't mention anything about pelvic rest, which was prescribed at my last appt. Dh and I both forgot about it. He wants me to call and I just feel so awkward about it lol.
Just picked up DD from daycare as she is running a fever. 2 weeks in the new school before getting sick. Not bad.
But now I feel bad. Her Baby Einsteins Aquarium in her crib ran out of batteries earlier this week. I can hear her in there hitting the button over, and over, and over, and over... and it won't work. :/ Guess I need to get DH to stop on his way home. Just wish I had @justinslovo 's neighbor!

I'm guessing they deal with WAY more awkward than that! But yeah, still a bit embarrassing. If it were me though, I wouldn't call unless there was spotting or something.
