Can I post an AW about my wedding invitations? Finally finished them last night around midnight! For privacy, the invite is just the sample that came in the kit. But the rsvp cards are what we printed.

The invites themselves are really pretty! I guess I don't get the "bells" thing on the RSVPs, but maybe I am overthinking it?

It's just a take-off of that old saying "I'll be there with bells on." We just found that wording for RSVPs on a website and thought it was cute I do love the invites. And even more loved that I got them on sale for less than $20

Tell me about it! 74 days left! 74! That's barely over two months. Hold me.

my heartburn is still bad from last night, but it still won't stop me from having leftover chicken wings (with blue cheese) for lunch.

Glutton for punishment.

Ahhhh! I have heard that saying before, I'm not sure why it didn't "ring a bell" with me They are super pretty and it's a total bonus you got them on sale!

I just did that thing where I ate so much of the Ben & Jerry's ice cream I just bought, that I had to finish the whole thing and throw away the carton (aka hide the evidence).

SO and I finished painting our room which will also be Ariana's nursery for the first few months until we find a 2 bedroom we want to buy. I can't wait to put the crib and changing table together!

LOVE IT!!! It looks awesome!

[silentsara]

Oh my. I only have 94 days til my due date. How did that happen?

Has anyone seen Mortdecai yet? It's the new Johnny Depp movie. I have a date with dh tonight and was thinking about a movie. Honestly, I'd like to just get some sleep but I feel bad never wanting to do anything.

Haha, we did something similar on our rsvp's. The options were "Wouldn't miss it for the world!" And "Was offered the world, must take it."

My DH's mom seriously could NOT wrap her mind around it. It was actually funnier to me because of that.

amelandre This made me giggle-snort. Ours were M____ will be attending in body or in spirit.

I kind of wish I were pregnant in the warmer months. If my bump wasn't buried under a winter coat, maybe the bagger at the grocery store wouldn't put 5 big cans of soup and a jar of spaghetti sauce all in one bag.  

Oh I'm so thankful to be pregnant during the winter months rather than summer. First off, it gets SO HOT and you get SO SWOLLEN and ew, who wants that? Plus I'd much rather miss out on drinking during the winter. I can't wait to be able to have a margarita poolside this summer, even if I do look like a blubbery mess in my bathing suit.

Just ask them to pack your bags lightly!

See, DD2 was born at the end of August and I would much rather spend the summer hot and miserable than deal with a newborn in the summer.  Not looking forward to that AT.ALL.

Easy way to perk up your bland water... freeze lemon, lime, or grapefruit juice in icecubes and add them to your water!

I took a nap earlier and like an idiot laid my glasses on the opposite corner of the bed. When I woke up and moved the blanked I heard the glasses go flying. It took me 20 minutes of feeling around on the floor next to and underneath the bed before I finally found them next to the wall at the head of the bed. I really need to order some contacts.

Oh man that is no fun

[CTri17]

Did we decide on a siggy challenge?

That's the worst.  Mine always disappear into the mess of cords behind my nightstand and I can't see the difference.  And I have contacts, this is just when I'm groping for them in the morning before the contacts go on.

jayjay Yep in TO. If you have Instagram go check out the hashtag #snowTO
Hope your DH arrived safely, and he brought some warm clothes
A few people started arriving at 11am hehe so I'm not alone anymore

Awful weather we got! I'm in Hamilton and couldn't even get out of my driveway until after 2!
Glad I was able to work from home. Get home safely.

Sooo I got breath right strips and I'm wearing one around my house. It isn't doing shit for me. But I don't want to keep using Afrin cause it says no more than twice during 24 hours and not to use it for more than 5 days in a row.
Does anyone know how breath right strips work? Am I stupid for even trying?! (My nose is made of metal) could that be why they don't work?

If they're the non-chemical ones, I'm pretty sure they just pull the skin to make the airway wider. If you have that much steel in your nose, I'm not sure how much you would actually benefit from them.

veenie, it's half day with aftercare so he is there all day though I am picking him up early this week.

I am clueless when it comes to preschool! I hope he had a great first day!

I have been binge watching Gossip Girl and I love it. I can't believe I didn't watch it sooner.

It's my favorite of all binge-able shows. I didn't watch it while it was on. I could not have gone on that rollercoaster over the 8 years or whatever it was. I devoured that series!

Oh no! I have always wondered how people get ready in the morning with glasses. Like how would you do your eye make-up? Contacts seem like they'd be a must. Glad you were able to find them. I would probably have been looking around and crunched them with my knee with my luck.

Went searching for a new humidifier. This is the one I choose...all of the 'grown up' ones have failed me. I'm kind of in love.

This one's on my baby registry
