January 2014 Moms

What are you doing this weekend?

I am bored.

DH, DD, and I just got back from the mall. I needed to pick up last minute baby things for DS and I also needed an excuse to eat out for lunch. Trip was a success and now I am resting on the couch from all the walking ;)

Tomorrow we are taking DD to her first movie at a theater. We will be seeing Frozen. God help me...this could be interesting...

What are you up to this weekend?

    DH is having some friends over this afternoon to watch football. I am going to indulge in wings, pasta salad, and a beer (gasp)!!

  • Going to the doc in an hour to find out if I have bronchitis, which I'm pretty sure I do.  Then I plan to sit on my butt and try to get better.  I really don't want to be sick when this baby decides to show up.

  • @ccip82, thanks.  I hope so too.  I was used to not sleeping well from being pregnant, but now I can only sleep an hour, then I'm up for 3 hours, then sleep an hour and so on.  It's insane.

  • Freaking out a bit… Baby will be making his/her debut on Monday morning via c-section. So I think this weekend will consist of cleaning and organizing… and then some more cleaning, with a small break to watch the Saints game, of course!

    Ah, Frozen is so good!! Have fun!!

    I have no plans this weekend. TV and snacks because activities make me want to die at this point.

    Have you tried nursing him skin to skin? With DS when he would fall asleep before he was done nursing I would start nursing him with myself topless and I would strip him down to his diaper.  My midwife suggested this since they would be stimulated by the skin to skin.  It seemed to help him.

    January Siggy Challenge: When I am done breastfeeding...




  • I think we have pretty much decided to stay in today for sure. LO is sleeping right now and tends to sleep A LOT during the day. I'm stuck at home because I'm still recovering from my c-section. DH decided to stay in because he just feels like being lazy. I'm going to be so sad when he goes back to work.  Tomorrow we will just play by ear.

  • I took down the Christmas stuff made a Lego station for DS and now am sitting on the couch. I am going out for lunch with a friend and then start cleaning and organizing the baby's room. Football tomorrow. Go niners! Then more organizing. The change table that I was going to use was broke by my brother so now I have to find another option.

  • Sounds like a fun weekend ccil! I hope that your DD loves the movie!

    I gave my house a nice deep clean this morning with the help of my mom and grandma so that it is ready before baby girl gets here. 

    I've had some more BH contractions from all of that work, so I'll probably just take it easy this afternoon. Do some knitting and reading. 

    Tomorrow, I think we are going to take back the baby gate that we got at our shower (not the one we registered for and it doesn't fit where we need to put it) so that we can get a new one and pick up a few other things that we need. Other than that, I'm not sure what tomorrow will hold!



  • DH took the kids out shopping so I could rest we booked a hotel room with a waterpark for the kids and then relaxing all day tomorrow. The cleaning lady comes on Tuesday for the 1st time ever (xmas present from DH) and I've already cleaned the house so I'm super pumped about actually relaxing this weekend

  • Nothing.

    Or, more specifically, sitting on the couch today watching Food Network shows. This evening after DS goes to bed, I'm going to finally post-process the pictures I took of him doing his cake smash back in September, and organize paperwork/receipts/etc. for my business. Oh, and tomorrow, we have to install the infant seat and base, and I have to pack my hospital bag.

  • So far I worked from home a little bit today and tomorrow. Since the OB told me at my last appointment how low DS is (I seriously thought he was still high up) I'm in freakout mode to wrap things up for work and start working from home half the week.  SO & I will be going out to pick up last minute baby stuff, take down Xmas crap and he's going to start on the damn nursery and build the crib (FINALLY!). Oh and I can DS has dropped some more today because I feel like Stay Puft.

  • We are on day 4 of taking care of DD who has had a rough battle with the flu (chills, horrible fever, cough). We have not left the house except for meds.
    I need to run to store for more food since we are down to NOTHING. Also hope to run to library so we can watch something other than Happy Feet for the 37th time.
    Supposed to tour the maternity ward tomorrow but have no idea who we could ask to watch DD since she'll prob still be contagious
  • We had to pick my Jeep up from the shop, and then had lunch. Now, we have nothing planned for the rest of the weekend. Tuesday is my scheduled c-section, so we need to tie up some loose ends and I need to get some groceries sometime this weekend. But right now, I'm thinking a nap is in order!

    Temperature here is dropping like crazy, so DS and I are hibernating. Crazy weekend plans: cartoons, laundry,playing with Thomas the train,the bump,give DS a bath, take nap, you know super exciting stuff like that. I did eat 1/2 a bag of cinnamon gummi bears for lunch that was pretty awesome :)
  • @ccip82 I went to watch Frozen and its a really good kid & parent movie. There were a lot of little kids and I'm guessing the movie was really entertaining for them because no one made a peep :) Good Luck, I hope DD enjoys herself!

    My weekend consist of nesting, watching Law & Order SVU, and eat all things!

  • Not too much planned for this weekend which I enjoy since I don't have much energy. Went out for lunch for my grandmas birthday today and then came home and took down all our Christmas decorations and vacuumed. Now I'm hanging on the couch with a wheat bag on my lower back and watching the kardashian marathon. Tomorrow I'd like to do a bit more organizing and hopefully get caught up on my photo album from 2013 that I make and order online so it is done before LO arrives, otherwise it may never get done. I'll be 37 weeks tomorrow. Hope everyone has a great weekend, and be sure to take some time for yourselves.
  • We took DD to Frozen a few weeks ago - she loved it. She did ask to go potty quite a few times, but being 37 weeks pregnant, I didn't mind at all. It was an excuse for me to go too :)

    I am not up to too much this weekend. Just enjoying what may be our last weekend as a family of 3. Went for a walk earlier and now am thinking a nap sounds good.

  • We stayed in today and put away our Christmas stuff.  We're trying to clean the house now and DH just went to the store to get storage containers (for the kids clothes) and pick up some dinner for us. Tomorrow I hope to get some things out of storage for the baby and we're going to my mom's house for dinner.

  • Coming home from the hospital, I hope!
  • Last night SO and I went out to dinner with our gift card from Christmas. Then, we spent over an hour at the grocery store, stocking up our food supply in case this baby comes soon.

    I was crampy all night and had 2 hours worth of contractions this morning and then they stopped. I spent all afternoon in bed watching HGTV.

    Once SO got home from work, I cleaned every room in the house. I've washed all of the bedding and now SO and I are playing word trick on FB.

    The weather here is calling for 8-10inches of snow. I will not be leaving the house unless I go into labor.
