I got notified last minute about a teacher job fair (by a principal who wanted to meet me ), so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that all that walking around tonight was worth it. My back is killing me now! Luckily, I have a massage tomorrow! I've only ever had one before, and I was really sore afterward. I didn't realize that you were supposed to drink a ton of water after. Hopefully this time is better. The rest of the weekend is going to be a blur of little kids' birthday parties. Also, I just realized that I don't have any free weekends until the school year ends...
Baby Elliott (technically) due 6.13.2015 but born via c-section on 4.12.2015 at 31w1d after 31d of hospital arrest (think house arrest) for monitoring.
I need a pedicure. All the time in the hospital with the really dry air wrecked my feet. Also, going to Michael's to buy a scrap booking journal or such to document Elliott's time in the NICU. And..hoping for a yummy breakfast with DH when he eventually gets up.
My parents are coming into town for my cousin's wedding (I'm not quite ready to be out in public, or more specifically, with ppl who will ask too many questions, post delivery as I tend to get a bit weepy) and they're going to visit Elliott afterwards. They're also bringing some yummy Korean food for me to eat
Oh, and I'd love to buy a deep freezer this weekend so we'll see...and finishing up my registry. .since I never finished while I was in the hospital

I'm getting a pedicure this morning with one of my oldest friends. I haven't had one in years because I do a fairy decent job on my own feet...until now. So excited. Hubby informed me that after we have to do yard work. I like mowing the grass but haven't done it since October. We'll see how that goes. And maybe tomorrow we'll work on the nursery?
I'm so excited for this weekend. Saturday night DH and I are booked for a fancy ass degustation dinner at Attica. Late wedding gift from my sister but at $190 per head , I'm not complaining! Then Sunday evening we're seeing The Lion King in theatre. Yay for this weekend!
If I could triple love this, I would! Please report back on what you ate. I love degustation dinners!
The entire degustation took 4hours. Good thing i booked early at 6.30.
Everything was so interesting and delicious
Eta: They describe it so much better at the restaurant and you don't actually get the food menu. But my sister who gifted this to us found the menu online.
leenziepops, thanks for sharing!! The pictures look amazing. Ahhh- I bet they had a fab wine pairing too (to enjoy when not pregnant). The menu is very interesting. I might have to look up some of these dishes because I think I'm lost in translation hahaha. What was your favorite dish? I'm so happy you got to to do this...even better since it's free! I get nervous before I eat these kind of meals because you never know what you are going to get. It always ends up delicious though!

Some of it sounded or looked so weird but would be pleasantly delicious! Highlights - the fried mussels (photo with the painted face on a mussel shell) the sauce burst out of the crumbes coating. J dont like mussels but it was amazing. The cabbage and emu (142 days dish ) was really good. I had never eaten emu and it was good. The garden broth was so aromatic. And the hot chcolate we got as they showed us the gardens outside was the best hot chocolate ever. I had to ask for 2nds. Lol. Oh and the last dessert, the eggs in the nest, that was chocolate with salted caramel inside!
Two boys: DS#1 8yo; DS#2 5yo
Expecting Baby #3 (a GIRL!!). First 2 pregnancies without issue, followed by four losses and five years of trying off and on.
leenziepops, I'm drooling just thinking about hot chocolate and chocolate with salted caramel! Good to know emu is good- I've seen it at wild game restaurants.
