Re: Life Updates Here

  • You're totally entitled to be a cranky wreck! Didn't you need a new bed last year? Maybe you could work that in with some of the insurance $?
    I love that you think you're huge already, your body has done this before your ute totally knows what to do! Haha! Love to see this belly! Sorry about your dad. :(

    NOT IT! :)

    How are all the new houses going? Anyone going to be moving soon?
    We are getting SO CLOSE to being done. I mean, we're all moved in, but there's still af ew things I need to do. Like hang up frames and clean out the garage. There's maybe 8 boxes in there that I need to unpack and my goal is to have it done before it starts snowing so I can actually park my car in the garage. And then when I'm done I will take a billion pictures for you all to see :)

    New jobs?
    Nope. Not quite sure what's going to happen with my current job, but it's still too early to tell. So right now, I am enjoying my maternity leave. The worry can wait.

    How are the DH's doing?
    He's all right. Not much going on, really.

    TTC?
    Noooooo!

    How's life for those with new LOs?
    It's good, except for Baby Boy waking up twice a night. Ugh. This, too, shall pass. Right? But aside from that, life is pretty darn sweet. It feels like the girls are growing closer every day. I love watching them grow as sisters. And they LOVE their little brother. Baby Boy is such a happy, laid back baby (completely the opposite of what the first 2.5 months of his life were - thank you Zantac!!!) I just wish I could snuggle him all day <3

  • New jobs?

    I can answer this one - I'm teaching part time at a local community college. I feel like I'm finally hitting my stride, but now have anxiety about my failing students. I've tried to reach out to a few, but they don't respond. It's frustrating. I think I will get my teaching assignments for next semester soon, so I'm a bit anxious about that. I was the last hired, so I basically get whatever is left IF there is anything left.

    How are the DH's doing?

    He's good. He's gone this week, then will be back for a short period before being gone for a few weeks. BUT he decided that we should go to Disneyland for Thanksgiving, so he got some awesome points for that.

    TTC?

    Um....No. We are two and through.

    How's life for those with new LOs?

    We're in the 4 month wakeful right now, so I'm frustrated with my disrupted sleep. DS loves DD, but has trouble understanding concepts like "gentle" and "quiet."

    How are all the new houses going? Anyone going to be moving soon? Nope, although one day I will finish painting.

    New jobs? uh no

    How are the DH's doing? Ehh he's alright lol. He is currently up north fishing with his grandpa and a couple friends.

    TTC? hell no

    How's life for those with new LOs? we are doing surprisingly well. DS is being a typical two year old stinker butt. DD is amazing baby and lucky enough she sttn most of the time, DS not so much. Isn't it supposed to be the other way around? DD is also doing well with BF considering I was an EP for 6 weeks. Also I had my gall bladder out 2 weeks ago and cleared for exercise, now to find the time lol.

    Yeah we still have no bed lol. I started shopping and found out I was pregnant 2 days later so I stopped.  We could do it with the insurance money I guess.  But it sounds like no one wants the bedroom set in my Dad's bedroom and something will have to be done with it when the house sells.  I have mixed feelings about taking it but DH will be hard to convince to spend money on one when we can get a free one.

    And I really am huge.  Comically, comically huge. My mom walked in a couple of weeks ago and burst out laughing and said I'm having triplets. :)
    @kimbus22 Duuuuuuuuuuude. I weigh more now than when I delivered Lincoln, too. After having weighed nearly 40 pounds less last summer. I am going to have to watch myself like a hawk this pregnancy and am totally scared to make my first appointment.

  • House:  Not considering moving until DH finishes school.  The option to buy the house DH grew up in is on the table - his parents still own and rent it out.  But I'm not crazy about the location and, frankly, I think it's too much house for me to handle.

    Job:  I'm not looking to go back to work anytime soon, if ever.

    DH:  I feel like we're having a little bit of a rough time, it's the stress of having a newborn and me not getting enough sleep.  It was also like this right after DD1 was born, so I know it will pass. 

    Life w/ LOs:  Some days I feel like I'm doing awesome, other days I feel totally helpless.  But we're finding our groove.  I'm a little nervous about the winter because I hate being stuck inside, but also hate bundling up to drag kids around. I'm glad DD1 is really starting to get interested in crafts, that will give us a lot of new options to keep busy.

  • Who's KU still and or newly? I can't see tickets so tell me how many weeks!
    Currently KU and due in Jan with another little girl.

    How are all the new houses going? Anyone going to be moving soon?
    No new house, but starting to look at house plans for the future.

    New jobs?
    I am a librarian and love it, but there are about to be layoffs and since we do not need the money, but the rest of the little old ladies working there do and i would rather be on the road with DH, i am thinking about not going back after this little gets here.

    How are the DH's doing?
    He is doing good. Working out of town for months on end since he is a welder. Currently in Pennsylvania and i miss his stupid butt like crazy. Come on thanksgiving!!!

    TTC?
    Too late.

    How's life for those with new LOs?
    Lily is doing awesome. I love how smart this chick is! It amazes me everyday when she spouts off something new that she learned at school. Currently trying to kick her whineing (sp?) habit in the bud. She is a total drama queen already. Sigh.

    How everything on your end?
  • Who's KU still and or newly? I can't see tickets so tell me how many weeks!
    Currently 16 weeks on our way to Nugget #2, we find out the gender on the 21st of November (unless I get antsy and go to one of those 4D places sooner).

    How are all the new houses going? Anyone going to be moving soon? The new house was completed earlier this month, we closed and moved in on the 11th and I was done with the boxes by the 18th (I had LOTS of practice moving when I was active duty so I am kind of a professional).

    New jobs? Not until after Nugget #2 arrives.

    How are the DH's doing? Unfortunately, DH really needs to get his shit together or this might be becoming a single parent household. Things have been a hot mess for the last few months but I kept giving him a pass because of the stressful living situation (our old house sold way faster than anticipated so we stayed with friends until the new house was done being built). We have been in the new place for 2 weeks and nothing is improving. Fingers crossed that he wakes the f up soon because the idea of raising our 2 itty bitty's on my own is just not appealing.

  • I haven't been on here in forever either. 

    Who's KU still and or newly? I'm KU and almost 32 weeks. We're having another boy!

    How are all the new houses going? We just moved three weeks ago and we LOVE our new house. Of course moving while pregnant, with a two year old as TORTURE, but we are so happy to be in a bigger house that is closer to everything.

    How are the DH's doing? DH is great. He had a difficult time when we first got our surprise BFP, but he is now beyond excited to have another son. He's been so much more helpful and understanding during this pregnancy too!

  • No more babies.

    Still in the same house. We did make a 3 year plan to move before Sophia is in school full time.

    Dh is doing well considering the last two months have been complete hell. He works too much IMO.
