I'm having a family weekend and taking it easy this weekend since I woke up with a bit of a cough and a sore throat today.
Looking forward to getting together with our family tomorrow for Thanksgiving.
I feel like I have lots to be thankful for this year but my top three would definitely be: 1. Having wonderful family, friends and community 2. Being blessed to live in a safe place/country where I don't have to live my life in fear 3. My son and little baby to be.
I am thankful for my family, my wife, my daughter, that I am pregnant, for a beautiful day, for naps and beautiful fall weather.
I am so tired right now! I didn't take a nap today and I am feeling it. I've been spoiled being able to take a nap with C most days this week.
I'm going to a pumpking festival tomorrow with some friends and C (and maybe L). She has not been feeling the social events lately. I wish she was more into it, but thats ok.
Headed to a friends for Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow. Yum!!! Turkey hangover, here I come!
Today I rearranged the basement bedroom/workout room, then did 30 min on the elliptical. Went outside and seeded the dirt area where the huge sand box used to be, racked a little and cleaned up the backyard to get it read for snow. Then came in, stood in the door of the babys room which has been empty awaiting furnishing since just before we found out she was sick. I'm tired of looking into a room tht should be our baby's room, so I made it a reading room. Now it has a purpose until we have a little one to take it over.
Plus I made three different Weight Watchers meals ready for next week. I'm planning! I need to lose some weight! lol
I've been rather productive.
What I am thankful for: my beautiful caring and supportive wife, my amazing family, friends and our awesome fur baby. I am thankful for getting the chance to wear the uniform and serve my country, I always wanted to do something more and I'm happy I am able to do it every day. I am thankful for living in such a beautiful and diverse county too. My health, my families health. Having a roof over my head, clothes on my back and food in the fridge.. Oh so many things I am thankful for... I could go on forever.
dannigirl I feel you so much. We got a free crib from a friend a couple months ago when we first started trying and it's just sitting in our third bedroom, waiting. I keep that door closed.
I'm pretty sure CD1 is going to be tomorrow, so we've officially been trying for a year now between the two of us.
However, the rest of our lives are going really well even if we can't get pregnant for some reason. I'm thankful for -My mom finally getting better since her tumor removal months ago. -Amazing pets that make me smile every day. -A job that I love. -J changing jobs which should make her life a little less stressful.

We took a dog to the vet tonight, thought his foot was badly injured turned out he has a stomach ache due to his IBS. He should be fine til Monday. I will take in a stool sample the . The silver lining is, he's most likely fine. And the vet didn't charge us For the emergency call since we've taken all three dogs there for the last 8 years.
Work was crazy busy today bc of the homecoming football game. I marched in the homecoming parade for Hillary with my baby sister yesterday. Love that her and I can be political together.
Still symptom spotting like crazy, I can't help it. I'm obsessed this time. Our nursery room door is closed as well. I have a few outfits that were just too cute tucked away in a box that gets harder to open.
I can barely handle listening to SIL who's 18weeks talk about all the cool stuff in her nursery, and I can barely smile when she shows me new stuff. Other BIL/SIL should be giving birth any day now, and it's a shame that DW and he aren't closer bc she is so so so excited to be an aunt, but he hasn't talked to Her in weeks. I haven't said a word to them in over a year. I am okay with it, as I love her whole family aside from them.
We are in Chatham, ON visiting manada's grandparents. In a couple hours we will head to her mom' place in Kitchener. Our first road trip with the baby has gone well! We boarded our dog and I'm glad we did. That was definitely the right decision.
I'm thankful for my partner and our three babies. I'm glad that we got the 21 weeks on the inside that we did with Tav.in and Ca.sey and I'm so very grateful that El.lis got to come home with us.
****loss and living child discussed***** We're queer. I'm 34, have severe stage 4 endo, and both fallopian tubes are gone. My love ("Manada" 33) was diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve. We did Partner IVF (my eggs, her uterus). We lost our twins Tav.in and Ca.sey at 21 weeks gestation.
Yesterday was a super productive day. Got our dog groomed, went to my company's family picnic, did grocery shopping for the week ahead, put away 5 loads of clean laundry, did some yard cleanup in the front yard, did a major scrub of our downstairs full bath, vacuumed, dusted and some other general cleaning around the house! When my butt hit the couch last night at around 8pm I was exhausted, but felt really good about everything we got done.
Today J's mom is coming over to hang out with William (and us) this afternoon. It will be nice to hang out and relax knowing all those chores are already done!
I am thankful for my family, my wife, our amazing son, Dosey, our crazy dog, a good job, a roof over our heads (and though it is far from our dream home, it is cute and cozy and ours).
