No idea what that's from, but it came up when I searched for weekend gif and I thought it was funny.

[seamonster]

Debating if we go see Santa today or tomorrow. It's actually sunny today so I think we'll do the park today and Santa tomorrow.

FFSC: Since we won't have a tree this year due to moving and traveling, I am going to take photos of DS in front of one of the mall trees.

Morning. DD is currently crawling around the hotel floor. I am kind of skeeved by it but girl needs to move. This is when I am ready for her to walk.

[pitdigger]

Making French Toast for breakfast.

We have not heard anything yet re: the job. My positive take is that it's not an outright rejection.

Also, making Peking-style duck this weekend on request from DH.

I want a tree regardless of our moving situation, but I don't want to push it.

First snow of the season. Not sure how I feel about that.

I rescheduled 9 month pics...again...the lady from jcpenny called last night and said due to high volume over this weekend (probably Christmas card pic shoots) they are not allowing an outfit change and if we are late our appointment is cancelled (which I understand) and blah blah blah. I felt like that was a little unfair to not be able to do an outfit change for a milestone photo shoot when we pay good money to buy a full digital album of the session. The whole thing was starting to get me anxious, feeling like it was going to be rushed and an unpleasant experience. So I rescheduled to a weekday night in hopes of it not being as crazy. Sigh. These will never get done lol.

So I was hoping to get some kidless Christmas shopping done today instead but I'll see if my sister can watch the girls.

seamonster and pitdigger can you just decorate a small 3 or 4 foot artificial tree and keep it simple? That's what we ended up doing last year instead of going to get a huge real one when I was a month away from popping out a kid.

DD1 admiring the first snowfall last night. Please excuse the jack-o-lantern clings we still have up on the SGD.

And update on my sister who did the IUI: she found out yesterday that it didn't work There are no words to describe the feelings I have for this sad situation...

Oh dreemkin I'm so sorry! Lots and lots of hugs, for you and your sister.

We are on our way to MILs for coffee and hanging out with the cousins, and then "Thanksgiving" dinner at some friends. Thanksgiving is not a holiday celebrated in Sweden, but some of my friends really like turkey and pumpkin pie, so they set up a dinner every year. Yay!

It would be cheaper to just buy a real tree that size. Artificials are stupidly expensive and then it's the 'what do I do with it' question afterwards. We don't get anything taller than a 5-6 footer since I'm short.

Hugs.

Also, as a follow up to earlier. I have confirmed G's love of eggy bread products. French toast is a hit as was Yorkshire pudding with the toad in the hole earlier this week.

I'm so sorry. I can't imagine how you guys feel right now. Sending some prayers your way.

[kartish]

I'm so sorry to hear that dreemkin, lots of hugs!

Yesterday I brought home a table and two chairs they I got from a daycare that is no longer operating. I paid 26 bucks for the set!

Today is work then put to dinner and a movie to celebrate my friends birthday. I think I will cut out of work early if I can!

[hollydfromtn]

I'm sitting here rocking a sleeping baby on my morning to sleep in. H made it about an hour with him and then brought him back in the bedroom because "he was getting restless." No shit he was restless, he's a crawling 9 month old that is insanely curious. This is what I deal with everyday. I know H is still getting over all of his sickness from last week, but I'm a little pissed that he's laying in bed asleep right now while I had to get up and go play with S until he was tired enough for his first nap. It's the one morning a week that I don't have to be the primary parent. Ugh...sorry for the rant.

[lilyelayne]

dreemkin so sorry for your sister, and you, and the whole family.
hollydfromtn I understand that frustration

We move out of our apartment on the 10th and then are flying and driving to a different place each week for the following 6 weeks. I've seen some 8 inch lighted table ones I might get or we'll hope the hotel has one.

dreemkin sorry the IUI didn't succeed for your sister.

[mishka29]

We are having a girls weekend at my mil's this weekend! Yeah!

Eta: whoops hit post too soon.
I'm happy that my annoying SIL didn't come and instead a fun cousin who has a 3 year old. 4 adults and 5 little girlies!

[seamonster]

Baby is currently napping on my arm. Bedtime starts in an hour. I think it's going to be a long struggle. I was looking forward to a bath, Netflix, and snacks while H runs a night race. Especially the Netflix to myself part.

[kartish]

So if you knew there were cookies over in the next building, but have no real reason besides yummy cookies to go over there, would you go over and steal some cookies?

[kartish]

Also same question for a cheese platter. They are having orientation over in the main lodge,and since I went yesterday, I know there are snacks. And I'm starving.

[seamonster]

I would go steal some snacks.

[lilyelayne]

kartish go get snacks!

[aggiebug]

dreemkin I am sorry your sister is struggling with infertility :. That is so incredibly tough.
