Today's the opening day of deer hunting here... yesterday was in the 60s and today is in the 30s and it's snowing. Ugh... good for the hunters but I'm not ready for snow!
I could go for some coffee too, but I'd need creamer and we don't have any.
Dinner and organizing the closet sounds like a nice day! I actually need to finish taking some girl things out of bins to hang up so that I have a little of each sex.

Ha. We're out of creamer too. I used the lactaid skim milk I had...not the same thing.

Good morning! Checking in from the trenches over here. Both babies are sleeping so rather than do the bazillion other things I should be doing....I'm drinking a full caffeine coffee and playing here.
Can I still pump after real coffee??
I wish I could share my google history with you guys. What did moms do before the internet?
I have to stop by Carters today. We got a really cute onesie at the shower a few weeks ago. Blue fleece with sparkly silver hearts. Which would be great if we weren't having a boy! I'm pretty sure it was a re-gift and its from last years stock. We'll see what can be done. I also have a coupon for a free NHL onesie for the local team!
So they knew you were having a boy? Weirdddd.
I have spent so much $$ at Carters recently. The only thing that makes me feel better is that everything is always on sale and they always give rewards bucks. Score.
requiressnacks are they both home now? I must have missed the Gabriel update! So awesome and sounds like it's going well I hope you post pics of them in their turkey outfits!!!!
We have a vet appointment for both the dog and cat this morning so that should be entertaining. I usually wrangle the cat but that's definitely not happening today. Then MIL is coming to visit the rest of the day. Not sure what we're doing but it should be enough to keep her away and out of my hair until the baby comes.

Yes! I can't believe I forgot to update you guys. Posted now!
I finished up my last day of WFH yesterday, so that's a relief. I just need to return some files to them on Monday. I originally planned to be done the first week of November, but then I realized I'd get two additional holidays plus accrue my sick and vacation days if I stayed. I wish I'd been done sooner, but I guess I don't feel as bad spending some $$ with the extra pay. Lol
DH took DS1 to the movies this am while I took DS2 to BRU to finish getting some things I needed, use my 10% completion coupon plus an extra 10% with their credit card today. So I added a few things for the boys to the registry and got the discount. Christmas shopping for the win! HA! When DS2 wakes up from his nap, I'm taking them to the park to meet their friends.

Oh my gosh, the cat went bat-shit crazy at the vet. I'm glad dh was there. He attacked dh's arm and hand when they did his temp. Then our poor dog and her chronic dry eye. It was an hour for two wellness checks.
crimpgirl I have people who did that with both my boys. But they actually thought it was boys clothing. I was like um there are ruffles on the ass or poofy shoulders with sparkles. That looked like BOY to you?

crimpgirl seriously?? If it's a re-gift, at least have the gender right. Funnynotfunny, but I usually look at the tags on anything our SIL gives us to see if it's from another year so we know if it's a re-gift from something her son got.

hmr11913, are you in Wisconsin? Did I know this already? What part?
We had our super chill Thanksgiving dinner today. It's been so nice and calm around here. I love not dealing with my MIL and her questionably edible food. I started cooking last night and was having contractions the entire time... then they died off just before I stopped. Since then it's been nothing but stupid Braxton Hicks.
Tomorrow my only plan is tackling the clean laundry mountain that has been piling up in the corner of my bedroom for the past 2 weeks. I keep adding to it, but not folding it. Now I regret that decision. Technically I'm supposed to be on bed rest until next weekend, so I'm being lazy for the rest of the day.
My house is finally empty after a week of in-laws. So, so relieved. And happy to have another day to relax tomorrow. Looks like we're on our own for Thanksgiving, so it should be low-key.
Went to Target this morning for some groceries - ran into a friend I haven't seen for a long time so it was nice to catch up a bit.
Made 2 batches of Christmas Crack and 2 pans of Caramel Apple Crisp when I got home. I am so tired and sore from being on my feet for so long I can barely move.
Hopefully I'll have some energy tomorrow to do some more baking, do laundry, and organize the pantry.

dream2be3 I'll on my way for some Christmas crack!!
I totally get why they call it "crack." It's so addictive! I probably could've eaten an entire pan. It's probably a good thing I have GD - saves me from gaining weight from all the goodies and overeating in general.
What is this Christmas crack you speak of dream2be3?
Saltine crackers topped with a layer of homemade toffee with melted chocolate chips on top of that. Then you sprinkle with things like chopped nuts, chopped toffee candy bar, mini m&m's, the sky is the limit!

Today is a low key day over here. We hosted a big "welcome home" party for the babies yesterday. It was a great way to let all the family see them at one time, but obviously a lot of work. I'm hoping today is visitor-free because I don't want to get out of my pjs.
