Sad feels this thread wasn't already made.
My friend and I went to the hospital this morning so I could meet her baby. Baby is up to 3lb10oz! My friend got to try to feed her a bottle for the first time! I'm so happy I got to meet the little girl and be there for that moment.
The baby shower this afternoon went well. DS stole the show a bit it was all family so a pretty small gathering.

We were out and about taking advantage of the nice weather today. DS doesn't seem to like the swings at the park. He started pouting right away and then cried.
Now just watching the football game. I need to clean out our guest room for my parents staying over next weekend, but eh.

My baby STTN last night! Hoping we can recreate the magic again tonight.
We had music class this morning, stopped in at the bakery for some goodies, then took our dog Max to the vet. It ended up being a pretty nice day out so we all went for a walk this afternoon. We tried putting DD down the little kid slide in the park but she was not a fan.

cougarette apparently today DH cleaned out our guest room, the junky corner of the nursery we've been shoving stuff into, and the bookshelf we've been meaning to get rid of. His sister sent me a pic of the bookshelf at her house. I should leave him home alone more often!
Still on vacation. The new hotel has a baby club. DS is going to have fun making new baby friends (no separation anxiety when there's other babies around) and H and I are going to have adult time. Baby club is only for a couple of hours, but it will be good for us.
We're going to see if we can squeeze a dive in while DS is in baby club. Need to get some use out of our scuba certification.
DH and I agreed that we each get one morning on the weekend to sleep in. Before it was just me sleeping in since I was getting up in the night with LO.
So of course she wakes up at 5:30 for me this morning. I'm also a little hungover. Boo!
Yesterday was good for socializing and my pregnant friend of the group is coming over to look at stuff today. Friday my other friend is coming over for port and cheese. Also, we got our visa applications done and submitted, so Wednesday the passports go overseas and the waiting game continues.
Yesterday we started looking for bedroom furniture!! We've never had a nice, complete set of our own; it's always been pieced together. I think we did a bad thing though and went to a super nice place first which was $$$ but very customizable, American made, all solid wood, beautiful furniture. Nothing is going to compare. We are going to another one today. One boring furniture place is our limit when toting around the girls. They were so good yesterday though they even got compliments from store employees and then I grinned like an idiot I was so proud.
ETA: I'm jealous of you guys that have nice weather. I miss going on walks/to the park sooooo much. It's currently 1 degree here (wind chill -10). Probably shouldn't even leave the house.
We watched the play off games yesterday and being a huge Chicago Bears fan (remember: DH'S grandpa played for the Bears for 8 seasons), we were so happy AZ beat the Packers! Suck on that "titletown" Plus, my ILs live in AZ too so I like following/watching them and I hope to go to a game there next year when we visit! Go Cardinals! Can't wait to watch the games today. I lurv the NFL! I'm sad we only have a few weeks left
Massage was great and instead of usong my gift certificate, I went with their 20% off promotion and so I still have a massage to get! My shoulders needed this like you would not believe.

badw0lf I swear DD has said dog a few times when she's chasing them around. She also says "Hi" but pretty inconsistently. And it makes me so angry but the word she uses in context most often is "dad".
Occasionally when she is having a real melt down it sounds like she is saying "mama" but I think that's mostly in my head.
dmorgendorffer DD definitely says mama only when upset but she definitely means me. I was incredulous for a while, but she has made it clear. Ahh the joys. Dada is happy mama is upset
badw0lf lol poor kittys! That is adorable. DD says Titus (our big dog) now and loves to follow him and he isn't a big fan of hers lol.
dreemkin Oh good luck with picking out furniture! We have never bought new bedroom furniture it's sooo expensive. It felt like a huge upgrade purchasing a complete matching set on Craigslist even if there are a few scratches .
Yup Carolina/Seattle game was boring but Pittsburgh/Denver seems better so far! @holachica
All you with angry "moms", I don't even get that. We have hi and uh oh. And the inflection of hello but doesn't really sound like it. She says Dada but as a babble. They say it's slower to talk for 2nd kid ::shrugs::
The furniture set we looked at yesterday was $9,000 for head board on drawer/storage bed (DH is 6'6 so we can't have a foot board), two night stands, large dresser, and mirror (which we probably wouldn't get). So yes...super expensive.

Just got home from a Broncos party and it was a close game! Living in CO Im a Broncos fan but my loyalty is to the Giants. I made a Velveeta, sausage and Rotel dip.
Today was also my day to get up with the kids. I took a Benedryl last night and it kicked my butt this morning, felt super groggy and hungover but I didnt have any drinks last night.
Went to see The Revenant last night and it was great. A little on the long side but a brutal and emotional story.
DS says Mama and Dada although mama sometimes refers to lots of things. Dada usually refers to Daddy. He does say no and shake his head even when he means yes. It's very cute.
