1. 2. 3. .. GO!

[littlefoot]

1. Tomorrow is my birthday. We don't really plan on much. I'm making myself a cake (just an excuse to make a cake). Hopefully DH makes dinner, and I'm sure we'll have some champagne.

2. I quit getting excited for my birthday years ago. If DH takes off work we'll probably go to the park and play with DD and that would be fun:)

3. My aunt has her scheduled amputation today and I'm so nervous for her. I know I shouldn't be. She's seeing one of the best surgeons in her state, but it's just scary. She of all people doesn't deserve it :/

4. There's a cupboard in our kitchen that DD plays in all the time. It's empty and she puts all of my shoes in it. Yesterday she put her blanket on top of the shoes in there, crawled in, and laid like she was about to fall asleep.

5. She's been in such a lovey mood lately! Hugging and kissing and cuddling on her own, and I love it.

6. However, I could do without the being extra clingy that comes along with it.

7. I'm out of coffee.

8. I have some instant stuff that I can make iced coffee with but I'm out of creamer too!!

9. I guess I could just use milk and sugar, but it just doesn't taste the same

10. I got a bunch of free make up in the mail yesterday and I can't wait to use it!!!!

[annarose]

1) I too was out of creamer this morning. I used milk and sugar and agree its not the same
2) @iamjojo - I bought the new 1D album yesterday from itunes - it was on sale for 7.99 hahaha
3) I just watched the movie Divergent the other day and really liked it
4) I am now trying to read the book
5) LO just learned "Oh Nooooooo" from the book Pete the Cat and his 4 Groovy Buttons
6) She loves this book and has been having us read it all weekend long. its the first time I have seen her really show a prefrence towards a book
7) We are starting to consider TTGP during the summer - the idea of a second child is awesome but financially scary
8) we figure many many people have muliple kids so somehow its going to work out
9) My brother is getting married (second marriage) in the summer. Its on a wednesday and in upstate NY (we are in FL) I dont think we are going to go because it will be expensive and its bad timing for my work. I feel like a terrible sister and i really like his fiance. Its not a huge big typical cermony. Its pretty much in a field and they are calling it a celebration
10)We are having a super bowl party on sunday - i hope it goes well and i hope LO sleeps well

[carli]

1. DD has been a bear lately. I don't know why but she throws fits over EVERYTHING these days. It's exhausting
2. I am 13 weeks pregnant today, yay second tri!
3. Now if my stomach troubles would just stop, maybe I could handle DD's tantrums a little better.
4. My in laws have been at my house the past 2 evenings. I'm ready to go home tonight and have the house to ourselves.
5. My only real food aversion during pregnancy is coffee.
6. I feel like I've been pregnant for ever!
7. I'm super focussed at work this week b/c I'm worried daycare could call me to come get DD at any time. I don't know why she's been so fussy, but I'm paranoid.
8. Calling the doctor today to see if she can see her and make sure there's nothing I'm missing.
9. Since I weaned, I feel much more out of sync with my baby girl, I hate this feeling.
10. We got a new TV and hung it on the wall last night. Now the play room is much roomier and more comfortable for mama

[carli]

jnetx What diaper bag did you decide on?

[mommabakes]

1) I'm tired of winter weather and ready for the sunshine and warmth so I can take G outside again.
2) We got a new(to us) suv this weekend, and so far I am loving it!
3) DHs birthday is this weekend, and he wants to go out for Mexican..yum :-)
4) He is also taking a few days off of work and I'm excited. He has been working third and getting 60-70 hours, so we haven't seen each other much.
5) I can't believe my first tri is almost over.
6) I can hardly wait to know what sex this baby is.
7) I just bought dd some underwear and we're going to start working on potty training. She seems really interested, so hopefully it's successful!
8) I think we're taking G to the local science museum this week sometime.
9) I have gotten more time lately to catch up with my girl friends and can I just say how incredibly happy I am to not still be in the dating world?
10) I got our taxes done already, and are getting back a decent amount, I'm planning on posting off the mattress we bought last month and dh is going to use some of it to finish a gun build he's been working on.

[sugarkissed]

1. I just did DD's hair and it looks adorable. I love being able to play with it now that it's getting longer.
2. Her new favourite thing is playing fetch with our dog. She can only throw like.... 6 inches... but he doesn't care.
3. I can't believe how fast time is going by. DH and I were talking about a vacation but I'm already almost 22 weeks pregnant so we'd have to plan fast.
4. I went to the gym yesterday after taking a week off and I am so, so sore.
5. We went to a late Christmas party at a friend's house Saturday night and after staying up until 1:30 am I was a total wreck the next day. I told DH that I'm not committing to any more social events.
6. The weather has been beautiful (for here) the last few days! I'm not looking forward to when it cools down this week.
7. We went to Costco last night even though I warned DH not to bring me there. We left with everything. I was hungry....
8. I'm terrified of potty training. I think we are still quite a long way off though.
9. We set up the crib in the new nursery and I can't wait to decorate it!
10. I just ate a huge breakfast, but I want a snack...

[mommytoone]

.
1. Little man is currently watching Paw Patrol
2. My birthday is next month
3. We are leaving for a cruise in 16 days
4. We will be in Belize for my birthday
5. I watch my nieces and their brother everyday (ages 5, 2, and 3 months)
6. Relating to #5 I'm glad it gives little man someone to play with during the day but watching them everyday gets old at times
7. We're talking about getting a new camera before the trip
8. We're also thinking about getting a van when we get taxes back
9. I have a ton of homework to do (working towards associates in Nursing)
10. I have to get little man dressed so we can go to lunch before his daddy has to go to work.

[smilingeyes]

1 - Currently sitting at my desktop with DD in her highchair eating her snack (nutrigrain bar & banana).

2 - I haven't been on the forums for a while but I'm glad I'm back. I didn't even lurk while I was MIA.

3 - I've been going through some crazy anxiety/panic attack issues and I have finally decided to try a medication (Zoloft) It's sitting in my cupboard. I am so nervous to take it. However, I'm just not functional anymore. I have multiple panic attacks a day and being a SAHM, that's just not how I want to live. Probably should have address the PPA a lot sooner. The struggle is real.

4 - I love that Canada has had such a mild winter. It's scary - we never have mild winters. I'm not complaining though. It's still cold but not cold enough that we have to fear frost bite. I love that I can still go out with DD in her stroller, all bundled up in her snow suit plus layers of blankets and her weather shield.

5 - Can I just say that weather shield was the BEST $10 purchase I've ever made?! That thing is a life saver.

6 - I'm making lunch and we're keeping it simple today. Bow tie pesto pasta. After lunch is done, I'll be putting dinner together in the crock pot.

7 - DH & I have found a church that we absolutely love and we have only missed 2 Sunday's since we started going. This is a huge thing for us. We've never been to church before this but always wanted too. I love it. DD hums and snuggles into me through all the songs. Sometimes she raises her hand and looks up at the ceiling as if she's saying Hi to Jesus. Super cute.

8 - It's 12pm and I still haven't gotten dressed for the day. I don't even have a bra on (TMI?) Ugh. Need to get better at this. I need to wake up and INSTANTLY get dressed. I dress DD first thing every morning and get her washed up. I need to do the same for myself or I end up feeling like a huge bum. Plus, it's always my luck that on the days I don't get ready early, someone knocks at my door -_-

9 - I've always been bad at TTT, always make this post way too long, haha, sorry ladies.

10 - DD just threw her sippy & bowl on the ground, pretty sure she's over it.

8. Baby boy has started bending over to look at things between his legs. It's funny but I haven't been able to get a picture yet.

This is what DS does all the time. My mom said that according to a Japanese wives tale when baby does this they are looking/wanting siblings.

[ajaan113]

1. A snow day! I was expecting a delay.
2. DS started to fall asleep during lunch. He was sitting in is chair with his head bobbing.
3. I was about to have a glass of wine with lunch.
4. DS is napping.
5. I need to do lesson planning but DS like to cuddle while napping.
6. DS is a terrible sleeper. He loves to get up between 2 - 4. He either is restless or wants to play.
7. DH nursing classes started this week.
8. The dog is taking up valuable sofa space.
9. I love snow days!
10. I baked muffins this morning. They didn't rise. I think the baking powder is to blame. I want to give them to the neighbor that always snow blows the sidewalk in front of our house.

[legitsince86]

Ugh the app deleted what I was writing!!!!

1. ILs are here to work on clearing out bushes for our new fence. They were here all day yesterday too.

2. We're finally getting a chain link fence for the front yard. Not exactly my dream fence but at least I'm getting my automatic fence opener.

3. LO has been gettingn up around 7am when she used to sleep in til 8:30-9am. I miss those extra hours.

4. Tomorrow DH leaves for 2.5 week work trip.

5. I play it like its no big deal but inwardly I'm a wreck.

6. I'm hoping my parents come up this weekend. They were supposed to come last weekend but got halfway here then turned around because it was too windy.

7. I don't know why but I cried when they left a voicemail. LO was so sweet she laid down on me and we took a 2 hour nap that day.

8. I have a whole list of To-Dos to try and keep me busy while DH is gone. Now I have to figure out meal plans.

9. I don't k ow what we're doing today as our last day as a family for awhile.

10. The mobile app better not delete this.

I thought my birthday was tomorrow but it's not until Thursday.

Haha, awww! I get my days mixed up so often lately!
I think that you should just celebrate tomorrow also... it's your birthday eve, after all.  

[wowcheezits]

1) My workouts this week have been getting much easier.
2) I was able to take my kickboxing class up a notch tonight.
3) I still haven't heard whether or not I got the job. I called the HR on Friday they said it's a 2-3 week turnaround.
4) I lost 4 pounds in a week!
5) still not pregnant yet.
6) I'm 37, going on month 6. Going to see my OBGYN next week.
7) I haven't really been back to the Dump in awhile.
8) during the day, I spend lots of time at Sparkpeople while I'm at work now.
9) Spark is actually motivating me to live healthier.
10) Downside to proboards I can't go on here while I'm at work. I feel like a broken record.

[smilingeyes]

wowcheezits - just curious, why can't you go on proboards at work? Also - if I remember correctly, were you the one on Zoloft during pregnancy? or at some point? Forgive me if I'm wrong! If you were - how did it work out for you?

[fiveohfive]

wowcheezits I hope you hear about the job soon!

1. Driving home from work yesterday was a nightmare. I'm so thankful for 4WD.

2. I got an awesome deal at target yesterday- Simmons convertible crib for $280 with a free $109 fancy mattress- woo!

3. I called to put said crib on hold while at work yesterday and had to drive there in the snowstorm to pick it up... Not the smartest idea but I got the last one!

4. I've had a super productive work week... I've been putting off lots of small side projects but my rear is finally in gear.

5. Our black lab eats his own poop and its gross. For 1.5weeks we have been following multiple pieces of Internet advice and he hasn't eaten any more! I will be so happy when he's out of this phase. (He's 5)

6. DD has been eating like a horse lately- she had a yogurt, cheese stick, 4 clementines, blueberries, a baby breakfast bar and a gerber pasta meal all before 1!

7. My former college best friend who royally screwed me over now works at an affiliate company they contract us out to work for. I just found out she's pregnant too and due in June, and I'm so happy my April baby means we WONT be covering for her maternity leave since I will still be on mine. Eat it beyotch!

8. DH and I have been getting along awesome lately and I love it- we don't usually fight, but we just become 'meh' and bored with each other and don't talk as much.

9. I'm thinking about wallpapering our hallway with white paneling on the lower half, but I'm scared it will look 80s. Hgtv and sherwin Williams have a line together that's cool.

10. DD is doing awesome post-surgery and her fever has stayed away. The last of her steri strips fell off and her incision looks great

[wowcheezits]

She's so adorable. Beautiful baby.

Nope I was not on any medications during pregnancy except for prenatal vitamins. I took some anti-depressants last year for a few months toward the beginning of some drama I had with my 16 year old. Then I quit taking that after 2 months of taking them because we were going to start TTC and I wanted it out of my system before we started. So I guess it didn't work out. Proboards and other social websites are blocked on my work computer through my employer. They have sites like Linkedin, facebook, twitter, etc., 

[smilingeyes]

@fiveohfive - what a beautiful baby girl. So sweet.

[lilqt3929]

@fiveohfive I'm so glad to hear she's doing well!

[lilqt3929]

1. I'm having my morning coffee and watching the today show before LO wakes up.

2. Yesterday I purchased the book "All The Right Reasons" by one of the former Bachelor's (Sean Lowe) for $14. I never spend money on books but luckily it was worth it because I cant put it down. I love all things The Bachelor/Bachelorette (guilty pleasure).

3. DH has been home sick from work the last 2 days and I feel so behind on my chores. I love when DH is home (not that he's sick) but he throws off my schedule that I have for myself during the week.

4. We've started putting LO on the potty this week because shes been pointing to her diaper and can tell us when she's pooped. She hasn't gone on it yet but I think its more about getting familiar with it for now.

5. When in the world did our LOs get so big to be able to start sitting on a potty?! I think I'm in denial, I still have an infant :/

6. DH just told me his work wants him to travel for 1.5 weeks to the other side of the country. This makes me sad, I really wish they would never ask him to travel. I dont know how you ladies that deal with this all the time do it!

7. He asked if LO and I wanted to go with him since it will be in the 70s there and would be a nice break from the NY winter but I just dont know how much fun we'd have since its in a small city. I'm tempted but there's so many details to iron out and the trips in a couple of weeks.

8. LO has been SO picky with eating lately. She was picky to begin with but it's just getting worse now. She literally eats the same things every day and the only "meal" she will eat is breakfast.

9. Im excited for the Superbowl, I dont care who is in it, I just like the atmosphere around the game. Thats one thing I miss prebaby, going to my parents house with my brother as well and making lots of yummy food and watching the game together. 1 kid for me and 2 kids for my brother later, it just doesn't happen anymore . Hopefully once they get all older it will!

10. I really dislike this time of year, the high from Thanksgiving and Christmas is gone, its cold, snowy, and dark, and the weeks drag on. I can't wait for spring!!

[jlprybs927]

@fiveohfive the incision looks wonderful!! so glad she's doing well!

1. I am trying to figure out this new home. I need to learn how to tag, gift and download the tapatalk app.

2. I have been long term subbing and the teacher returned Monday. Thankfully another assignment opened up through the end of the school year and it starts tomorrow. I love teaching and I'm so glad I won't have to day to day sub the rest of this year, because it is AWFUL.

3. DH's birthday is Friday and we are going to celebrate Saturday. My dad is taking D overnight so we are going to go to a nice dinner, use some of his hotel points from traveling for work and staying downtown. I am looking forward to an adult only dinner with friends and a kiddo free/night am!

4. My neighbor and I have been doing Insanity 30 the last few weeks, not super strictly though because life has been crazy hectic and she's pregnant, but I definitely noticed I'm getting stronger which is awesome.

5. We are going to Key West in May for my BFF's 30th birthday and I am SO excited. I live for the beach. I want to move to somewhere warm because Western PA just isn't cutting it.

6. We are probably going to start TTC after the beach trip some time this summer. Hopefully I can secure a teaching contract for next year. If not, mama might just stay home.

7. Speaking of moving, H and I are tossing the idea of him transferring to NC or FL around. I am so for it. Did I mention I hate cold?

8. D's personality cracks me up. She presses her musical toys and will throw her arms back and shake it. It is hilarious.

9. We are having BLT's and fries for dinner tonight and I am so excited.

10. Is it 2:30 yet???

6.
