Friday - Finally!

[meggypoo1]

We made it! I do not have my phone today! I am lost! Let's talk! I do not want to work today! 

...wow that is a lot of !!! 

[ladytiffany24]

I also do not want to work today! But I'm so happy that its Friday.

It's supposed to be a rainy day tomorrow so I'm thinking of making and decorating cookies with my toddler. But I'm second guessing myself because we just had our cleaning lady clean the house yesterday. Not sure if I want to deal with the mess.

Other than that, I think it's going to be a super relaxing weekend. I am going to need to stuff a bunch of gift wrapping into DD's nap time both Saturday and Sunday which I'm not necessarily looking forward to. Remind me to never wait this long again! I need to just start wrapping as I get gifts.

I feel like I'm missing an appendage when I don't have my phone. How it's not too bad for you!

I keep looking for it! I already called MH and complained and then daycare. I am all like what if they need me today and they don't use my desk phone!!  MH is like omg, relax! Daycare has my number too! 

[meggypoo1]

Maybe I will make my grocery list today and everything else I need this weekend!

I just drive an hour to go to court. Post coffee and I can still barely keep my eyes open. I'm not going into my office this afternoon. I think I'm going to get my nails done. We have our attorney Christmas party tonight, so I'll need to be up past 8 pm. A nap will likely be necessary.

Drinking coffee while DS finished his milk. I have a Dr appointment today so I'll need to get ready.

I think DS is in full Christmas mode now. He's been watching all sorts of Christmas specials and keeps inspecting the presents under the tree.

Good morning

Eeps, phones missing is baddddd news.

ladytiffany24, make the cookies and take tons of pictures. It'll be worth it

glb30, I hope you find the energy you need today!

My husband is on the way to the airport with the teenagers. My ex and I are good friends so I don't want to take his time away from them, but I soo hate having to share them. I didn't go for the first time because the twins are still fighting whatever it is they have and it kept them up until past midnight coughing. As the girls have TSA pre, I couldn't go past security anyways unless I want to slow them down, so weee?

Past that, two weeks with no older sister help with the twins.. they hate it when their sisters are gone. It is kinda a wash for me.. only the two to worry about so easier, but less help with toddlers. ~shrugs~

[callmeKD]

it's snowing here. might head home soon to work from there.

And my last fffc, I am not enjoying feeling movement with this little one. It hurts. My skin hurts. I am over it. Then I get upset with myself because I know so many people want to feel it and may never get a chance and here I am dreading it.

This.. all of this.  I swear, my singleton girls never hurt like this.  I am ecstatic that he is active, but egads.. this little one is torturing me. 

And the guilt is real.  I KNOW what the movement is for and I am soo happy that he is working out in there.  By now, the twins were almost three weeks old and having to do all of this in an incubator.  Thus, I know that we are supposed to be their natural punching bags.. so I try desperately not to whine about it. 

Thank you for admitting it so I could!  lol

Well, I did it. I finally broke down and emailed our Director of Building Services about seeing about getting Expectant Mother parking spots here at work. The parking lot here at work is HUGE and the walk from the parking lot to the building is long. Earlier this week, there were some scary icy patches. There is at least 1 other pregnant lady here and we've talked about it multiple times. She's due in Feb and I'm due in March. We're both worried about the walk as the winter weather gets progressively worse. It's at least worth a try!

We're finally back home from what was supposed to be a 2 day trip that turned into a 4 day trip. Our house was freezing, so we will be cooking it in preparation for tomorrow, because it's a high of 5 degrees all day.

My results from the 3 hour test are in, but I'm assuming I won't get the call from my doc until tomorrow, since I did the 1 hour on Monday and didn't hear from them until Wednesday morning. I have no idea if I passed, I thought I'd passed the one hour.

On the list for today is finally painting the dressers for the nursery, so we can start putting it all together. Our crib got here while we were gone, and now I'm itching to see what it'll all look like once it's in the room and ready to go.

DH is still sick but hopefully on the mend. We need to get prepped this weekend since we're leaving for almost two weeks on Tuesday and I don't want to be doing it all myself. I was on top of things but getting sick Sunday followed by the mess of having our windows d one has me very behind.

@justinslovo the real humble brag there was that you actually had a successful poop.

*casually shoveling Colace down my throat*

I am wearing a dress today because pants are no longer cutting it. I've never worn a dress around my toddler before and he went under it this morning and said "blankey!" Lolol

I am 100% positive Elena would lift up a skirt/dress to get in it if I wore one around her. Girlfriend loves her some cloth on her face.

My extended family Christmas for tomorrow got canceled due to the upcoming snow. It doesn't look like the snow will be that bad, but it's supposed to be super windy, so I understand why it's getting canceled.

Now I have to figure out what we are going to do with our day tomorrow. We were supposed to be gone, so now I have a whole day with nothing concrete planned and it will more than likely be nasty outside.

[erinshelley21]

My meeting with my client went much quicker than I expected. I stopped for a peanut butter milkshake and pretzel sticks from DQ. Getting ready to head back toward home and make a couple stops to finish ds's Christmas shopping.

[glb30]

I got a manicure/pedicure and a much needed eyebrow wax. After, I went and bought some gifts for the hosts of all the parties we have this weekend. I went with yankee candles and chocolates, and I'm tempted to break into the chocolate now. While getting my pedicure, I noticed how sore my back is. I made an appointment for a massage at 2 pm. So I'm home sending some emails now, but off to my massage in a half hour. This is turning out to be a lovely Friday.

I got my amazon baby box and it was better than I expected! An adorable swaddle blanket, an advent bottle, some wipes, an oball toy.

[moutonrouge]

I was walking down the hallway at work, and farted super loudly right as I passed the only occupied office on that wing of the building.

Otherwise, it's been a good Friday. I got the gifts for my friends' kids wrapped and mailed off, and I am feeling like I've got my work under control.

Did you also get the blanket with the hedgehogs? I made ridiculous noises when I pulled that out, it's too cute.

Watch them only put in 1 and then you are always in a race to get there first.  I hope they are accommodating!

Woo! I am home and I have my phone! Such #fwp

[mosdub]

TGIF!!!

I checked my amazon order for the free baby box and it said it was delivered MONDAY!? It never showed up That, or someone stole it off our porch. Bummed. I called and they are sending a replacement, which was very nice considering I called several days later.

Audibly farted in class today, but thankfully 7th graders were being so loud no one heard it.

All this talk about the Amazon box is making me jump on the bandwagon. Once I place my order for wipes that we'll use for DD, I should be good to go. I also think I'll make a Target registry, just so I can get a completion coupon for the wipeable changing pad covers they have there. We have one with DD and it's been so great.

I have farted at so many inopportune times this pregnancy. Most embarrassing was walking into my co-worker's cube to talk about something and one just slipped out. I had absolutely no control over it. I just said excuse me and kept talking like it didn't happen.

Good for you! I actually parked illegally this morning bc I was nervous about a long walk on an icy sidewalk. I hope they get you those spots!

Finally home from my long day. My clients wife sent homemade cinnamon rolls home with me. Bless her.

Now I'm waiting on my brother to bring me Chinese food. Ds fell asleep on the way home from picking him up at mil's and dh is at work. My original dinner plan of popcorn shrimp and veggies didn't sound as good once it became a meal I would be eating alone.
