Snowy Saturday Randoms

[youdontsay]

I can't believe I'm up this early on a Saturday! MH had to go into work early so I thought u could sleep in, but my dog had other plans.

My Snoogle came in yesterday and it was so nice to sleep with!!!!

I'm getting ready to put bananas foster French toast in the oven and meatballs and sauce in the crock pot for meatball subs for tonight

I'm also going to bake brownies and have brownie sundaes tonight. My doctor is going to love me on Monday....

What's everyone up to?

I'm working for a few hours this morning to make up some time. Then we're going to my cousin's daughter's birthday party. I'm tired and I wish I could stay in bed all day.

But I will be heading to your house to eat today, youdontsay!

[steph]

Laying in bed listening to the blizzard outside and thinking about French toast and brownies now!

I "napped" from about 9-11 and then hung out w DH until about 1. At 1 I was hungry but too lazy to get up. Now I'm freaking starving.

It's snowing now!!!

MH just called and surprised me. We have a garage that we use one side for storage and one side we use for my car when it snows. This year the garage was turned into a temporary work station for some home projects so there was no way I could park my car in there. Well, he told me he cleared out my side of the garage so I can park my car in there!!!!!! I'm so happy!

The snow just recently started sticking here. We aren't expected to get too much, but enough to go play in it. Today we will clean the house and watch the snow fall. I'm hoping to make some bread to go with whatever we decide for dinner.

[steph]

We've got at least a foot out there and it's super windy. The 3yo is pretty sad about it, she wants to go play right now.

DH is making me eggs Benedict. I hope it's done soon I don't get the after-hunger nausea.

We've still got power, I'm considering it to be pure luck at this point.

It is not snowing here and there is No chance it will. We may Go pick some strawberries today if we all feel vaguely well. For some reason my autocorrect wants me to sound like William Shatner.

I'm chilling watching Netflix. It's snowing here which means we'll be staying in for the rest of the weekend. We got a top of ice yesterday and snow on top of that just makes roads crazy here. I wish they used salt in SC to put on the roads! Oh well, I'll stay cuddled in my blankets holding my kitty (he's loving all this extra snuggle time having us here all day yesterday).

No snow here. H is out getting us donuts.

I guess DS really needed some sleep last night. I put him to bed at 5:30 because he was driving me nuts. I fully expected him to wake up by 5 this morning and not want to go back to sleep. Yeah, he didn't wake up until 7:30.

We already have 14". It's insane. And the "heavy snow" is still to come. I have never seen anything like this

[agpjt413]

Snow here as well & it's still coming down. We probably have close to 10"-12" and the projected total for our area is NMT 20" I think. Also - just found out from a girlfriend that FiOS is offering access to all premium channels this weekend. Probably the best thing about them since we decided to switch! (She's in the DC area and I'm a little South so haven't checked yet if we have it but for the ladies up North, check it out!)

[hrushka]

youdontsay, you are way too ambitious for a Saturday morning. But dang, that French toast sounds awesome.

Rogue, picking strawberries? In January? I am so jealous.

I'm just hanging out in my pjs, eating cereal (I think my hunger woke me up early).

Sending warm, cozy thoughts to all of you out east.

We located the lost cinnamon rolls! Saturday is saved!

[shehulk723]

I haven't moved from bed yet but I'm feeling a billion times better than yesterday. It must have been food poisoning. Which is good cause I was planning on getting myself a free B-Day steak tonight! And I don't think I showed you guys, but my DD turned one on Wednesday and this is going to be our announcement

[dc2london]

Very cute shehulk!! I'm so glad you are feeling better. Happy birthday!

[kam3100]

shehulk723 I love it!

It's so strange, my daughter slept until 8:45. So I slept nearly 12 hours last night. Guess I needed it!

[remylove1011]

shehulk723, aww adorable!!

[monicageller]

We are having some couples and their kids over this afternoon/evening. I'm so excited about the food I'm making and what everyone else is brining. I just asked all the girls- "whose gonna watch the kids while we eat?" I really hate when parenting gets in the way of my eating.

Edited to fix words

I'm jealous of everyone's whose littles are sleeping in. DS gave me my wake up call at 4:45 but I was excited to show him the snow so it wasn't too bad. We have about 13 inches here before I feel asleep at 9 for a nap. I woke up starving so that's about to happen

Hi, I volunteered to be awake and in working condition by 7:45am today. Foolishness!

[agpjt413]

Too adorable shehulk723!!! Love it!! And happy birthday to your DD!! ❤️

[jamjoyful]

So cute shehulk723!!!

All the snow in DC makes me miss it terribly. I'm craving wegmans and a snow day:( I asked H if we could pretend it's a snow day but he looked at me like I'm nuts.

foxxytwt DS1 used to regularly wake up at 430. We did weekly grocery shopping at 630am on Sarurdays since we were up anyway. at almost 4 he now sleeps in regularly. It's fantastic. There is light at the end of the sleepless tunnel.

Not a flurry of snow here in MI. I think I would like to get a bit of snow, but not what some of you are getting.

I'm eating leftover Chinese food from last night, and I pretty much want to order it again tonight.

I'm still happy from our ultrasound yesterday. It seems a lot more real when you finally get to see what's going on in there!

[dc2london]

we now have 24" on our deck. I'm a little worried about our deck.

[annbuhdan]

What do all of you consider the start of 2nd trimester? I think I will go with 13 + 3 but it always annoys me that there's not a perfect answer.

We had a bad blizzard a few years ago up here, 3' of snow on our deck and it survived!

I hope the same happens for you guys! All that snow so fast is scary!

I usually go 14 weeks because I like whole numbers. I start 3rd at 28 because I want 2nd to last as long as possible lol
