On the coffee thing, I have one cup every morning. About once every two weeks I even have one in the afternoon. It's just made at home stuff but I don't even feel guilty about it. I don't drink pop but I didn't before pregnancy either.
My uncle passed away yesterday and I had a never ending dream about his funeral last night.
Now we are up working on the science fair and getting ready to drive to a swim meet over an hour away in the snow.
SO said he got me something for Valentine's Day. We don't really celebrate (other than us doing small things for DD), so I'm surprised and really curious about what he did... He's not the surprise/romantic type.
Renarene ...so sorry for the loss of your uncle. Losing a loved one is never easy. I lost my favorite uncle to cancer nearly 3 years ago. We are naming this baby after him.
I am brewing some coffee and making waffles for breakfast. I will top them with strawberries and powdered sugar. This is my attempt at being festive for Valentine's Day.
That sounds great!
I made red velvet pancakes for breakfast for us, and I made them into the shape of hearts for the girls and gave each of them two and said "because mama and papa love you" they thought they were the coolest thing ever.
They ran in this morning yelling "Happy Valentine's Day"
I ended up on the couch at 4am. Add me to Team No Sleep.
Debating on going to Starbucks. (Don't get your panties in a wad i get decaf
I booked a cleaning lady to come today. I said it was our Valentine's Day gift even though it's cause I'm tired and DH is a sucky cleaner.
Going to get my hair cut today. Usually just get like an inch trim but today I'm think at least 2 inches maybe 2.5... Watch out I'm feeling frisky.
Oh girl I drink a full-caf almost every day. I quit until early into 2nd tri when the midnight potty trips started and I realized I can't work all day on no sleep and no coffee. So no judgment from me! I will probably have a full-caf Starbucks today.
yep, I make a full caff cup at home daily, it's my "me" time when my girls go down for naps

I let DD eat her Valentine chocolate at 930 this morning... Oops.

I usually have 1-2 caffeine drinks a week since 2nd tri. Luckily I didn't drink soda pre pregnancy anyways so it's just been giving up coffee and the occasional tea. I may treat myself today to a real fully loaded coffee today...I mean it is Valentine's Day and all.

No Valentines festivities for me. It's one of DH's busiest days of the year.
Any of you going out for dinner tonight, remember to be grateful to the restaurant staff. It's ridiculously busy and they're dealing with a lot of people who don't normally eat out, who have the tendency to not follow normal social graces and protocol. Plus there are at least 50 workers at every restaurant from the dishwashers and bussers, to the bartenders and chef who don't ever get their own holiday dinners or dates.
I'm not in it now, but I used to be, I hope you and your DH get your own time for a date soon.
and now I'm eating cottage cheese after my 2 pancakes because I have a m/w appointment this morning and don't want to feel guilty about my carb filled breakfast
We got up early, and went to the gym prior to coming home for waffles, strawberries and little Valentine's Day treats for DS. I even have PROOF I got a workout in! That makes 4 days this week. Feels good, can't lie.
Tonight is DS's super fantastic big boy room transition, so you know, major milestones happening 'round here.

I have to admit, saltyh2O ...I am a little jealous/envious of your workouts! I lack motivation when the time comes to actually put on gym clothes!
Oh sister, I assure you they are sporadic at best and pale in comparison to the days of old when I was tearing up the pool and logging miles with some regularity (and fitting comfortably into an...ahem...much smaller size). The motivation mostly came from the fact that all three of us went together. It's much harder to get my giant self out the door alone for reals.
It's getting lighter and warmer outside here soon and I bet we'll all start getting that springtime itch at least a little....I'm hoping that'll help me keep moving!

Regarding wine and coffee -- I enjoy both in moderation and don't feel guilty! So you have my support, for whatever the hell that's worth. I have regular coffee 3-4 times a week (no guilt; doctor said coffee every day is fine) and have had a small glass of wine a few times throughout my pregnancy (also endorsed by my doctor and one of my close friends who is an ob/gyn and actually thinks drinking red wine occasionally is better than no drinking at all).
So the dresser that matches our crib was going to take 8 weeks to arrive (possibly longer) so I hunted it down online. I found it and it would ship in 1-2 weeks, but the shipping was over $250 which was ridiculous. I then noticed that they are located in NJ and was just able to buy it and we can pick it up on Monday - no shipping. Woohoo!!
I hope everyone has a nice Valentine's Day. DH and I don't normally do gifts on V-day so I got him a funny shirt from Etsy as a little something, but he frickin got me this super cute/casual-ish Kate Spade watch. I love it, but now I want to kill him for breaking the rules. Argh. We're having a rather lazy day and an early dinner out at a nice restaurant.
I've had some weird delivery dreams as well. One the baby came out with an already styled haircut which is funny because both DH and I had like no hair as babies. Another dream was my labor was so bad I didn't remember it and was too weak to BF right away and my mom told the nurses to feed the baby formula and I went crazy on my mom about feeding my baby formula.
lol just the other night I dreamt that I gave birth to a baby robot. It freaked me out. It was too real. Smdh
My random is a bitch. I was scheduled to work this weekend. It is so extremely busy in the office and I have probably gotten 50 calls in the past 3 hours.
DON'T PEOPLE HAVE THINGS TO DO SUCH AS, ENJOY VDAY!!!!!!!!!!
