Our crib arrives tomorrow! We've been gradually emptying out the office to become nursery #2. Desk was moved to our room, and today we put a cat door in the hall closet so we can move the litter box there b/c it's the only place in the house that will fit a box that isn't in the middle of a living space. I'd love to just have the boxes in the basement, but my oldest cat is 17 and just can't get downstairs reliably enough for me to do that to her. Hopefully they tolerate the move well enough.
Today I've eaten: a spinach & feta wrap from Starbucks (+ a grande iced decaf skinny vanilla latte b/c that's been a daily craving lately), Wendys (chicken sandwich, fries, and a frosty), and Halloween candy. And I'll probably have a cupcake while watching the CMAs. So much for being healthy..
Anyone have a SO that refuses to discuss baby names? My frustration is starting to turn to anger. It is making me sad to have these feelings about naming my last baby.
He just keeps saying he's not ready. I am trying sooooo hard not to nag, but OMG, COME ON ALREADY!
Is he in shock or denial? Was so excited for names. It has really helped me feel more at ease with everything.
Holy smokes! I'm at 6, about to possibly get a 7th if he qualifies for services. So far 5/6 are on re-evaluation year this year, and the possible 7th would be a completely new one, with an entire iep from scratch. Oh, plus two have behavior intervention plans and one has a crazy parent. As a comparison, the other case manager who teaches the same thing I do, has 5 students and no re-evals this year. For us, a re-eval takes approximately, if not more than, 5 hours per student.
My re-evals take about the same. It is rough. You should see my weekly planner lol. I love my job, but DUDE...
I am the only SLP in my elementary school though, so this is probably why my caseload is getting so ridic. The other elementary school in our district also has only one SLP, and I think her caseload was 55, last I talked to her.
We'll, DH and decided well be resigning our lease come March. Which means we won't have an extra bedroom for baby.
I've been looking into a closet nursery and I'm getting excited about it. She'd sleep in our room first then we'd move to the CN. I've never decorated a nursery so I'm deep in Pinterest.
DH felt baby move for the first time tonight! Usually LO stops kicking as soon as his hand is there but not this time. He said it was super faint but he was very excited when I confirmed that was it. I also had a dream about the baby and in it baby was a girl. I had similar dreams with DS being a boy so we'll see! I've been thinking boy lately but this might make me switch haha.

My H won't discuss names. He'll say yay or nay if I start rattling some off but never offers suggestions of his own. My patience is wearing thin.
@justinslovo - I am the one who's not ready to discuss names, so hopefully my DH isn't having similar frustrations. I want to spend some time to put together my list of boy names and that hasn't happened yet, so I'm not ready to discuss. I'm also fearful of the conversation because our attempt at boy names for DD was not conclusive, so I'm putting it off. So maybe your DH doesn't know what he likes yet and doesn't want to have the conversation until then?

I'm sure this is totally it. Andplusalso he has put huge stock in this being his only boy so I know the name is extra important to him. And in typing that out it makes it sound like the girls' names weren't as important to him, but alas, I don't know what he thinks or feels about it at the moment.
I so get this. Same issue here.. he's sorta agreed to flipping his own name around for this one since I don't want a junior.. but he keeps mentioning passing down the family name ~facepalm~
