Our farmers market reopened today after a month hiatus, so we'll probably head there in a bit. See what new yummies we can pick up for DS to try thankfully other than watching football that's all on our agenda today!
We have a wedding to go to, in the rain and chilly. The Facebook invite says "semi formal", but I'm breaking out the tights and knee boots.
Btw, is inviting people to weddings via Facebook really a thing? I don't think Emily Post would approve. This is my nephew and his girl, both 20, so maybe it's just because I'm old that it seems... less than decorous? I dunno.
Brace yourselves for adorable dressed-up baby pics to come!
danitaec Yahoo! Bring on all the baby pics! Also- not old. I find Facebook wedding invites or even any electronic wedding invites so not cool. Can it please just be the one thing that people don't try to short cut?
I am hanging out over at my parents today while the contractors strap the walls and drywall the ceiling in our living room/dining room. Yay! We will get insulation Monday which is great news since we are just barely above freezing here today.
DD is napping, and my parents are gone out for the day so nap time for me too!
Charleston is basically shut down today. Luckily DH and I didn't have plans. Unfortunately we don't have much in the way of food. Hopefully we can get to a grocery store or something today.
Well, date night last night went well and MIL successfully handled putting DS to bed (even though it was later than normal). DS woke up an hour earlier than normal this morning, so I waited to see if he would fall back asleep and thankfully he did for another hour. When I went in to get him i felt really bad though...somehow the zipper on his sleeper came apart and one leg was completely out and his whole torso was exposed. It was kinda cold in the house too with the weather changing...oops. Maybe that's why he got up early!
Took DS's 7 month photos this morning. Each month gets harder and harder. He likes to rip off his sticker and eat it, lol.
Well we were going to have a fun day at the pumpkin farm buuut we smelled gas in the house last evening. Gas company came out and found two places gas was leaking from: fireplace valve and a joint leading to our hot water heater. So no hot water and now we are not getting a hold of anyone that can come out on a sat. The joys of homeownership...
I'm going to b&m a second. Working at a hospital I have to work a lot of weekends. And usually on the weekends I'm not working we have plans with friends or errands. This was like finally a weekend we had just for our little family to spend together doing whatever WE want. And it's ruined. This sucks

I love Saturday mornings! DH has a hard time sleeping in, so he always gets up with S and leaves me in bed. The extra hour or so of sleep that I get is wonderful. Now we're just folding laundry and hanging out at the house all day. The ILs mentioned something about maybe doing supper at their house tonight.
GeekBeagle I agree about the pictures getting harder. V lines to eat his sticker and roll over and try to dive off the couch we take pictures on.
dreemkin that stinks! Can you still go to the farm and try and call people on the way? Is the farm open this evening so you can to later? I hope you can find someone to come out and repair it quick though!
So my husband planned family pictures as a gift to his grandma. She doesn't have any pictures of the whole family, so that is what everyone is doing for Christmas this year. Today is the day he chose, and it is probably going to pour rain today. The place he choose is going to be super busy today and probably unable to facilitate indoor shots. And I might have trouble getting off work on time because it is a big festival today and I'm the only one here, since we are still short a person. So I may end up with a very unhappy spouse tonight.
I got the pics back of LO that I had done at Walmart. F'ing terrible. I got their special offer so could only pick one pose. That was fine bc it was hard to choose any I liked. A lot were blurry or fuzzy. I'm making another apt at a different location to see if they can do better since it was only $20. They usually do a pretty decent job but I was really disappointed this time.
I think at this point it'll be easier to list which roads are still open.
One of the animal shelters around here posted about an hour ago that they are flooded and need to foster out their dogs. I just heard that all are out in homes. I nearly teared up thinking of the wonderful people who step up in a time of crisis. I need to remember stories like this when people are being assholes all the time.
Hopefully all you east coast ladies (and pitdigger!) weather the storms okay. Prayers y'all's way. danitaec I've seen fbook events to gather addresses for wedding invites but thankfully no evite only weddings in my life. taberbtb yay for insulation!! Also barely above freezing is crazy talk. dreemkin I'm sorry your weekend is turning out so awful. Hope something lovely balances it out.
I am having the best day. Let me recap. H stayed for 7 to 3 overtime so I got to watch all my TV shows that he hates.. Teen Mom 2 recap show.... wow what a mess! LO pretty much made it through the entire night, from 7 to 6:30! She woke up once but I have her 5 minutes to CIO, and she did, and fell back asleep. SCORE!! She took a 3 hour nap this morning so guess what... I did too!!!!! She has been so happy, we played all day, and now she is taking another awesome nap. I got 2 hours worth of school assignments done and got 11 pages done of my paper. Had 2 slices of Bday cake (yummmm) and now tonight is date night. Dinner and a movie. OH, and no morning sickness today! First day I haven't thrown up at least 5 times.
Sorry, I don't feel like I have had a good day in forever, so I had to share with someone!!
Everyone in Hurricane area, be safe!!! My mom is driving from Boston to Virginia today. I am worried about her!
Update: we have hot water again! Our HVAC guy came and fixed the piping. Since it's too late to do our original plans we cleaned and now we are going out for linner (lunch/dinner) for Mexican. Not my fave but margaritas and guac. We decided to have a movie night tonight with stove popcorn! Pumpkin patch/farm tomorrow if weather gets better.
And I do realize these are trivial things considering some people are facing hurricanes so I'm sorry for complaining and hope everyone stays safe!
mels823 I hope your morning sickness gets better soon. Enjoy your date night!
toadandbuggie happy wedding day! I hope it's wonderful and memorable and everything in between. I hope you take time to step back and enjoy all your planning coming to fruition!
mishka29 I'm sorry your pics didn't turn out well. I know how disappointing that can be. Hopefully next time will be better.
missys I'm impressed with your quoting/meme brilliance! I literally lol'd at that one.
