It's time, ladies. A new week, a new thread. I'm waiting...

[hpnegirl]

It's snowing. DS and I are staying home while DH is going to work. Ideally, id be dealing with going to work as well, but 1) they haven't salted yet and my car is relatively new and 2) I don't have any phone or internet access at work so can't get anything done because the intranet port decided to be lame and cut out because I plugged in a different phone. Sigh

Hey ladies! Sorry I was MIA last week, my husband and I both were down with colds. Still recovering and I'm realllllly hoping G doesn't get it. We have our first night away planned for Wednesday so I really need her to not be sick while my parents watch her overnight. This kid has shockingly never really been sick and the last thing I need is for it to start on Wednesday!

We're flying to Vancouver to see the Louis CK show and I'm really looking forward to it!

It's also supposed to hit -25° this week, (Celsius, I don't Fahrenheit) so I must figure out ways to entertain toddler indoors. We bought a mini bounce house for the basement so hopefully she's into it!!

Other than that we're now planning a house renovation before baby comes so that should be... interesting.

Hope everyone is well and feeling good 😊

Well we're in the middle of a heat wave. (Temps feel like 36C and 96% humidity). It's disgustingly hot and I don't want to be outside if I don't have to. I had one day off this week and work decided to schedule in mandatory training. Here goes my relaxing day at home to get caught up on things around the house now. My house is so trashed from the weekend, it's bothering me but I have no motivation to do anything about it.

I'm so tired. DS has had some rough nights and it takes me ages to fall back to sleep after being up with him.

Is it Saturday yet?

Nothing crazy going on here today. Just a little meal prepping and grocery shopping.
And at some point homework & working out.

Nothing too exciting here, just working during the day, attempting to run the house when I get home. Debbie downer moment, today would've been my grandmas 90th birthday but she passed away on July.

Aww I'm sorry about your grandma. My grandmother passed in March so it's our first Christmas without her and it's been getting me down lately too. ❤️

I'm sorry about your grandma too. It definitely is different going through the first Christmas without. Not only mine in July but my bf's grandma passed in August so it'll be different for us both. Thank you 💜

My nipples are bigger, my areolas are bigger. My husband calls them mom cans. I just can't.

[ourcrazynavylife]

@osw OMG. Give your hubs a good smack for me.

[hpnegirl]

Omg, OSW. They totally exist and happen (mine, for example) but that's a new term for them! /ded

[ourcrazynavylife]

MIL said she was buying the crib and its killing me not to have it. My mom and I have almost purchased it 3 different times because we both want the nursery finished.

[ourcrazynavylife]

I'm so fucking tired. Anddd I have an entire presentation to prepare for tomorrow. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.

[ourcrazynavylife]

Oh. On a bright note. I won an Irma in a christmas giveaway this morning.

I just ordered our crib 🙈 nursery furniture piece 1 of 3 down.

onesweetworld we ended up pissing off my MIL by ordering our crib for DS ourselves and my family bought our car seat/stroller system. We told her to get over it because she took too long and we jumped on the sale prices. It was originally $400 but Amazon had it for around $300 at the time and we jumped. We actually got all the furniture ourselves because 1) sale stalking, 2) that shit is heavy so we had to have it delivered when we were home to get it upstairs, and 3) we planned on (and did) using it right away and I was already having a hard time getting up and down and there was no way I was assembling that crap in my third tri

[hpnegirl]

Speaking of ordering cribs, when we ordered DS's, we were in a tax free state so I didn't pay anything above sticker price. I was floored when I saw how much in tax I had to pay this time 😭🙈 I've paid so much in taxes this year that I need to keep reminding myself that this is what helps pay my salary 🙄😅

Signs DS is sick: 1) he's quiet and calm, 2) he doesn't want food, 3) he's quiet and calm...

This is my issue. I knew that there would be a point where I couldn't do much and now I'm there. My doctor is limiting my stair climbing and I can't lift anything. Basically my pelvis is going to break if I do anything strenuous and I just want the crib to be up. We have our second crib for upstairs but we still don't have our carpet done and wall building completed to put it up.

My ILs are still there so I can do certain things but the crib is over 100 lbs so that's a no go :/

Swing/bounced/high chair/other stuff totally do it though. You save a lot... lol 😂

[hpnegirl]

OSW, tell her to either order it now or you're getting it on your own and she can find something else. I had to do with my MIL or she'd have waited until birth to buy our swing, which we used from the day we got home
