My husband just rolled over and said he feels like playing hooky from church. Done!
I'm kind of feeling oatmeal for breakfast.
Oatmeal is just oatmeal... what you plan to top it with is where the magic happens. Anything fun?!
I don't like fruit in my oatmeal, but I'll have fresh mixed berries on the side, and I was thinking Chinese Five Spice and maybe pecans in the oatmeal.
I also use half and half and butter in my oatmeal no matter what so it'll be decadent.

mosdubkristhegirl it's not a coworker we hang out with outside of work or anything. But he works closely with my husband. Not sure how this is the first time he's heard the guy's son's name. To be honest, I wasn't completely overwhelmed with joy at the name anyways. It's not unique and a bit too popular for my taste.
Part of the issue is, H is Irish and really wants baby boy's first name to be Irish since this will be the boy passing on his last name. Well, there aren't any Irish first names that I'm head over heels with and we've looked at every Irish name list imaginable. 😞 maybe I'm being difficult. Idk. I just feel limited. And the few names I love aren't Irish.
@justinslovo I'm not sure how long she will be there - they are trying to get her transferred to an outpatient rehab which could be the best thing. It was a difficult visit
You guys + this super active little boy were making it so hard to keep the heart monitor on last night. I was giggling and laughing at your posts.. and he was just having a good ol' time moving around. My poor nurses.
We avoided sex the first trimester due to the dangers we had with the twins.. and by the time we got to the second tri, we knew about the vasa previa. My poor hubby I think we have the countdown to that being safe memorized more than anything else we are looking forward to! He's been begging me for any stories (I write when my brain isn't overwhelmed).. but he was especially hoping I'd write something with a naughty element. Silly beggar!
So.. nothing like your doctor and nurse waking you up to check on you around 6am. Then they tell you to get more sleep .. and 20 minutes later, the phlebotomist knocks and asks permission to come take blood Sleep is not happening at this point as the little boy is moving around so actively that instead of the nice calming thump thump of the heart on the monitor, I'm hearing all kinds of kicks and waves.
Time to watch some Worship for Shut-ins, which I am soo thankful is available
missi I was actually thinking about that the other day. It is impossible to rest in a hospital. They should make a bed rest spa where the rules are different and there is aromatherapy and acupuncture, whatever to actually help you relax!
I am going to get started on the legalities of this and will let you know asap when I open for business!
Or everyone should actually coordinate, so if 6:00am is "medical stuff" time, at least you know and everyone comes in that hour, then nothing/no one until the next "medical stuff" hour.
I'm sure this is hard to coordinate in a hospital setting but really I think it could be doable.
Oh another random french toast and syrup random...While I won't put syrup on whole slices of french toast, if I have those frozen French toast strips I'll totally dip those in syrup.
But if it makes you all feel better about me using sugar instead of syrup on french toast, all we have at the store is basically the choice of Mrs. Buttersworth (which my mom always bought when I was little) and Log Cabin.
Also I rank foods French toast with sugar > eggs or waffles > pancakes. I am not a fan of pancakes though waffles are pretty tasty. I know this is weird since they're basically the same ingredients.
I like waffles more than pancakes as well because of the crispier outside. Pancakes are yum but theyre just so soft and fluffy and that gets boring. They're like sponges for syrup.
Waffles are the perfect texture because they hold little cups of maple syrup in their waffley-ness.

Conclusion: I need a waffle maker.
Put it on the baby registry?
I would laugh so hard and probably buy this if I saw it on a baby registry. Baby wants waffles!

An shower gift arrived today. I was expecting boxes from Amazon anyway so I accidentally opened it. It was wrapped in a gift bag, so I shamelessly tried it out (a baby carrier) before putting it back. 3 weeks is a long time to wait!

Lol! No shower for baby #2 I could just suggest my loving family all pitch in to get it for me haha. "Hey guys, remember how I am making grandbabies/nephews/nieces and whatever? Yeah. well, I was thinkin maybe you could get me a waffle iron to... Y'know... Keep me healthy or something idunnomaybejustathought.........."

Am I not supposed to open things as they come in? Because I totally have been...
The giver is coming to the shower but has to fly in, and so I know she wanted me to unwrap it with her at the shower. If it was from someone who wasn't coming or it wasn't wrapped I'd just open it and leave it that way.
My turn to be the sickest person in the house. DS seems to be almost better, DH is still pretty bad but better than yesterday. I just want us all to feel okay, it's been a long week! I'm scheduled to get my winrho and glucose done tomorrow but I'm not spending 1-2 hours at the hospital if I'm feeling like this. Hopefully rescheduling isn't too much of a problem as my doctor is already annoyed I haven't done the glucose test.
And then there is the eternal debate... square or circle waffles?
Ouuu it flips. Yes, this is what I need.
My H came out of the store with a raincheck for the saw and, after explaining that whole ordeal, he was like "I almost bought you a waffle maker but it wasn't a nice enough one."
He laughed really hard when I told him that my bmb had already assigned that obligation to him.

I'm exhausted now. I've got the first coat of paint on the dresser and I love it! I'm hoping I muster up the energy to finish it tonight or early this week because I'm dying to see the finished product! We also went grocery shopping. I didn't fully submit my click list order so we had to actually grocery shop when we got there and it was a lot of work. I'm resting and unless I decide to finish painting, I'm doing nothing else today.
Uuuuuuuggghhh I'm getting sick. I refused to aknowledge it but it is undeniable now. Im still hoping I somehow feel 100% tomorrow morning. Blah. I almost never get sick so I cant complain too much. Still a bummer tho.
