As far as a bikini with a bump, I say if you feel comfortable then go for it! I am a one-piece 4 lyfe kind of girl, but that's just me.
Also, all this pancake talk has me wanting to make some, I have all the fixings but we have a piss-poor amount of maple syrup on hand. I know it's POSSIBLE to have pancakes without maple syrup, but it's almost pointless.
Make your own syrup! 1 cup white sugar 1 cup brown sugar 1 1/3 cups water 1 tbsp maple or vanilla extract
Boil for five minutes.
We don't have maple extract... or that much sugar for that matter! (I know I could scale the recipe, just sayin')
DH says I'm a bad Canadian for not always being stocked up on maple syrup, hahaha.
UGH I just got back from a walk with my 15lb shih tzu and my heart is still pounding! We were walking our neighborhood and a huge boxer about as tall as me (felt like it) kicked through a panel on his fence and rushed out at us barking like he was about to kill us. So I grabbed my dog up and yelled at this huge dog to back off and I booked my ass home.
I know he was just probably barking...and we were actually completely safe...it was just a scary moment!
I'm about to be at a super bowl party and there better be some freaking cake or something. I've been good all weekend in anticipation of eating like crap tonight.
My random...I'm finding my DH's breath completely repulsive these days. He'll be offended if I say anything though... To be fair, it's not just him--I was interviewing people last week and thought their breath was fierce too. I hope my sense of smell returns to normal after LO is born.
@allybells ...hope your DD feels better. beeorange ...yay for viability! hotcoconuts82 ...good luck tomorrow! amylee545 ...have fun on your little getaway! Go for the bikini! allisong87 ...hope he gets out of his funk soon...it is never fun when they are in a bad mood. shmee ...she is adorable! robotpcr ...I did the same thing for my wedding and baby shower. @freddieisready ...I am so sorry you failed the glucose test. I was super swollen with DD and she arrived a week late. smilz4782 ...what a cutie! alwayslastzz ...Coldstone wins my vote. Not a fan of Baskin Robins. @jraeohyeaaa ...very scary indeed!
I have been resting since I got home from church this morning. Hosting DD's 4th birthday yesterday sure did wear me out. She had fun and the party was a success...so it was worth it.
Now I wish we actually watched sports...all the food posts make me a little jealous!

Ugh how scary Glad you're both ok!
The most frustrating part was when I posted to our neighborhood Facebook page so his owners would know he was gone (the dog didn't have a collar), these women started commenting being all defensive about their enormous dogs and how I should toughen up! I'm like, I am pregnant and my dog is the size of a loaf of bread--I'm not exactly feeling "tough" right now! Haha
DD1 was coughing during her quiet time in her room so I went to give her some stuff and she feels warm. I can hope that it was just from coughing and being under her covers right? Sigh, I told her we'd take her temp after quiet time. Stupid germs.
So I don't usually leave the house on Sundays anyway but because I actually can't due to snow today it's making me nuts and making me feel that I need to go out somewhere!
We rarely leave the house on Sundays either. I LOVE SUNDAYS. It's snowing today and my H takes THIS time to be stir crazy because he can't leave the house. haha you two are on the same wave length.

Im back....
I quit school today. Not for forever, but for the semester/ year. I'm overwhelmed with a lot of stuff I have been experiencing during this pregnancy. Depression sucks (had it for a while) but I feel I may have to get back on meds because... Well I just feel like life sucks sometimes and I'm tired of crying myself to sleep because I'm in so much pain. Tired of missing work because I'm in pain... You get the drift. I want my happiness back!!
To continue the productive project weekend I was so gung-ho about...DH and I made it through a first pass at registering at BRU, and there were no tears or knock-down blow-out fights! We were there for over two hours even though we'd researched most of the "big" items ahead of time. I kept getting distracted by the cute fox-themed things!
I have been resting since I got home from church this morning. Hosting DD's 4th birthday yesterday sure did wear me out. She had fun and the party was a success...so it was worth it.
Now I wish we actually watched sports...all the food posts make me a little jealous!
The only way dh gets me to watch the game is to feed me mozzarella sticks and other fun foods...I can't eat anything this year, so I have no desire to sit there.

H and I are taking full advantage of this snowy day. We put up the decals in the nursery, hung some things on the wall, and right in the middle of it the crib bedding was delivered so that is out as well! So excite!
*Quick random rant: If one more person tells me to wait until the baby shower before buying something I may fucking lose it. We have literally only purchased the decals for the wall, crib bedding, decorations, and maybe 3 outfits. #1 I did not have this kid so everyone could buy me all the shit I need. #2 My purchases have been NURSERY decoration related which would never be on my registry in the first place! End rant.*

nurserachel22 I think it's really admirable that you are listening to yourself enough to know that you should take a break. Good for you girl. You deserve to be happy!
veganontuesdays That's right, I remembered seeing you post about that on other threads and I meant to tell you that you have good taste! I fell in love with an art print at Disney that has a fox on it, shortly after I found out I was pregnant. I remembered asking DH if he liked the idea of using that as inspiration for the nursery "theme" even if it was a girl, and he was all about it. Since it's a boy, there will be a light overall woodland theme, but the only animal I really care about having in there is the fox. If you haven't already, check Pinterest for some reeeeeally cute color scheme ideas!
