We're doing a fun little farmers market and brunch today at one of my favorite places. It's about 30 minutes from here so we get out of town a little, and the weather is supposed to be absolutely perfect.

We may drive up to the campground and check out out spot for Memorial Day. I want to go by a kids consignment store and see if they have a double stroller and maybe a few more newborn outfits.
Today we are taking measurements of our kitchen to Home Depot to get some estimates. We need to renegotiate our mortgage so we have to figure out what we will need to borrow to do this reno. My kitchen hasn't been upgraded since the house was built 40yrs ago and it drives me crazy. It's not even the aesthetics of it, because it seems it was good quality at the time. It is just horribly laid out and the storage does not work for today's products. Plus, it'll drastically increase the value of our house and I want to sell in a max of 5yrs.
It may still be a while before we can get started but i have MUCH EXCITE.
DD1 and I went to Target at 830 because the library wasn't open yet. Spent over $100 on who knows what, thanks Target. I know I bought at least 1 new outfit for dd2 though! A mom with a newborn took one look at me and said "God I don't miss being pregnant". Yup.
Now we're at the library, which has an awesome kids room, letting DD blow off some steam until lunch time. Then it's nap and counting down the hours until H gets home.
H and I went grocery shopping before the crowds hit the stores. Now I'm trying to read some articles for my online class so I can get some assignments done before this baby comes. This class has a bajillion things due right around EDD, so hopefully I can stay on top of it!
ugaqueencity we love that show! I cancelled Showtime to save some money, but we might need to sneak over to the IL's and binge watch the new season On Demand.
Hanging out at home, seeing DH's cousin and girlfriend, supper with friends- should be a good day if my hips hold up. Right now they're killing me, the pressure is so intense. Baby, you are welcome to make an arrival any time.
My brothers are here moving my moms house this weekend. So basically I'll be listening to them fight for two days.
My mom and I ran to the store to exchange the pampers diapers for huggies. The hospital used huggies, and after using those, I dont like the pampers. He keeps leaking out of them.

So how to you play with baby if all they do is eat and sleep?
You wait a month or so until they can start hating tummy time while you try to get them interested in a rattle. Or at least that's how it was with DS haha. Playing didn't really come in for a while.

I found pampers NB leaked too.
This is good to know. We have just found them to be leaky the last few days - they were fine before. I thought maybe we needed to size up but the size 1 diapers are enormous. I'll have to give Huggies NB a try.

Talk to them, watch them. Babies will focus really hard on things like shirt patterns, ceiling fans, etc. They are learning literally everything from scratch - let them explore stuff.
You can leave them to it, too. If baby is awake and content, you don't have to interact every second. Get a coffee refill or something.

mls5871 turns out our chicco infant my seat only works with the chicco double unless we want to buy an adapter. We are just going to buy another single umbrella type for ds.
corinne THE ANTICIPATION! AH!!! Sorry you're twiddling your thumbs! I'm sure it's hard to relax or do much while knowing at any moment you might need to pack up.
I was so looking forward to getting things done while DD1 napped. First up, replace the broken dryer door handle..sounds easy enough, right? I figured pop out a few screws and you're done. Nope, had to disassemble the entire door, which then led to me decided to switch the side it opens on b/c it makes more sense. An hour later I just finished and am still missing 1 screw somewhere under the dryer. Now shoveling food in my mouth before she wakes up.
Also, is/did anyone still have ST this late in pregnancy and enjoy it? B/c H & I gave it a shot last night (first time since 20ish weeks) and it was MISERABLE. I told him beforehand I had zero interest except to get this baby out and he totally humored me, but I could tell even he was like "yeah, this isn't so fun". At least he won't be asking me for it again until the baby arrives, but wow was it the least fun I've ever had! I'm usually more of a "I could take it or leave it" person, but even I was disappointed haha
Let MH sleep in this morning. Then went to my OB appointment, she said GBS is negative and last ultrasound looked great! She gave me my paperwork for the hospital. She checked me and again said T is sitting really low and I am at about a 1. She doesn't expect anything to happen this week. 😕 We then went to the grocery store. We still have a few things to get but we came home for a nap and lunch! I am feeling really crampy so I cuddled Clara extra at nap today and cried a little. I really hate not know when I will go into labor. Next week we plan to take her bowling and to lunch to have one last just the three of us day! ❤️
kaits8, I was 38 weeks on Valentine's Day, and we gave it a shot because holiday spirit and what not LOL
My pelvis felt extra broken for the last 2 weeks of pregnancy, and even MH was like "it's okay.... let's just stop...." part way through the event. My belly was massive between us. I don't think either of us were having fun unfortunately. My kid was born 11 days later so I don't think it had any effect in that department either. Womp womp.
