I'm up early to try to beg my kid into a full park district gymnastics class during in-person registration. My computer freaked out during online registration this week, but the other nanny share family got in. Not looking forward to this.
So getting donuts at the fancy don't place next door when I'm done.
I think I might try my maternity jeans for dinner tonight. I'm going out with two couples we've been close friends with since college. I'm looking forward to telling them, they'll be excited!
We're getting our Christmas tree today! I'm worried it won't make it till Christmas.....but then we'd have to wait until next weekend and then it would only be up and decorated for 10 days before Christmas and that isn't enough time. I love that my H loves getting real trees but I hate that we then don't have it for as much time

20 minutes after registration was supposed to start, someone came out and said that the class I want is literally the only class that has no spots. Awesome.
My crazy-vivid dreams were the most weird last night. I still don't know exactly what has really happened and what my brain is making up. I think IRL there's some crazy fun stuff going on, but I think the line between dream and reality is still hazy this morning.
Reality: -I'm 11 weeks pregnant -My dad is on a last minute vacation in Hawaii this weekend
Probably dreaming: -I had 1/2 ounce of red wine & it was amazing -There are aquatic lion creatures (look like Where the Wild Things Are) who eat people. Last night I was at a restaurant where they keep these horrible fish-lions in ponds. And I was "weird" for not wanting to sit next to the pond. -My dad has a body double/impersonator with a bad spray tan who stole his car.
... Still trying to convince myself about if my dad is really in Hawaii or if it's his double, and hoping I didn't really have any wine. My brain hurts a little this AM. And those fish-lions were terrifying.

manybellsdown,oh no! Is there any acceptable alternative classes that you could get them in?
cattuccino,I forgot about how live trees don't last and get all brittle. I've had a fake tree for so long now, but DH wants a live one, I told him to wait till next year when it's baby's 1st xmas.
vivela,I think my first time out of the house in maternity pants was thanksgiving dinner. It was the best decision I've made so far.
I'm thinking about making cookie jars for my friends for Christmas. The kind Where you assemble all of the dry ingredients and they add egg and butter and make cookies. But I'm not sure if other people like those. Yes or no?
How to have Saturday start on an annoying note: 1. Bring car in for oil change. 2. Wait an hour and a half for them to start it. This is a problem because I have somewhere to be. 3. Leave shop without oil change 4. Bring said car to other place for tire rotation and alignment 5. Find out alignment machine at next shop is broken so have to make another appointment just for alignment. 6. Drive with DH three hours round trip to drop MIL's friend off at a birthday party because she backed out. Good day so far!

Do you soak them in water for three days before trimming and bringing them in and decorating? My family did that growing up and they always lasted at least a month. Well and refilling the water all the time. We are gone for two weeks every year so we only do fakes now.
ETA. Trim then soak in water!! I googled because I was thinking that didn't sound right. So trim a little of the trunk first then soak in a big bucket of water!!

I think that's sweet, I would love if a friend gave me one!
GOmamab15 those are some crazy dreams! I had a dream last night I accidentally drank half a beer cause I forgot I was pregnant. It tasted delicious. Kind of hope I have more dream drinks
sandandsea, I think that's a great gift, I'd love something like that.
Alcohol dreams all around, I had an extended dream last night where I was drinking all sorts of alcoholic beverages, mainly beer, was not pregnant in the dream, it was great.
I also slept well finally and hate to admit that the best nights of sleep I've had recently are after days I've exercised. I just got back into exercising a couple weeks ago (after a 2 month break), it takes every ounce of my motivation to get me there and I'm currently only at once or twice a week but it is worth it.

We tried to take DS to breakfast with Santa today and it was a huge flop. So disorganized and a half an hour in with no food being served and "Santa" sitting at the bar drinking in half his outfit.

I'm sorry, but this is fantastically bad. I'm laughing.
