It's my BILs birthday today and he asked us to all go se some movie with him and I REALLY don't want to see it. It's a boring grown-up serious movie (I'm sure it's going to be great) and I genuinely do not have the attention span to sit through those these days. I just want to see Guardians of the Galaxy/Chris Pratt shirtless. I might try to sneak into the other theater once we get there. Or maybe just bow out and meet them after for dinner. Dinner I can always get behind.
We did an overnight trip this weekend to Cleveland. And the hotel room had a king sized bed. Omg it is the best night sleep I have had in a while. I didn't have dh all up in my space, the king sized pillow made an excellent body pillow and it was just a perfect firmness. Mmmm do I have to go home?
Love is like infinity: You can't have more or less infinity, and you can't compare two things to see if they're "equally infinite." Infinity just is, and that's the way I think love is, too.

DH is a contractor and there are several positions on each contact that are covered by a handful of different companies. He came home last night saying he had been put in for a different position with a new company. Fx that he gets it because it would be a significant pay boost and help with a lot of bills, including the money that we owe to the OB already. I hope this doesn't take a long time to heat back about like everything else in his line of work.
I'm trying my hand at meal planning for the week for the first time. I'm going for crock pot meals since school starts tomorrow and sports practices take up our evenings, and I've got to get my kids in bed at a reasonable hour.
Grocery store list and Costco list is done. Now just to finish laundry and housework today in addition to the food shopping.
Our family is growing by two feet and we couldn't be happier!
My DH decided to give me his cold..currently suffering and I have to go bridesmaids dress shopping today/leave for a 3day work training on Tuesday bleh (
I've been up since 6:30 because DS thinks that's the only appropriate time to wake us up. I'm trying not to be bitter that DH is still sleeping. He gets up at 5:00 for work every day and usually works around 11-12 hours a day so he needs the rest...but I want to be sleeping in the bed by myself!
I'm leaving for a work conference this afternoon. The conference is in the hotel I'm staying. I'm think I'll just order room service and not leave the hotel for the 3 days.
Blowing out my hair's on the to-do list, too. Wet bun with a headband has been my go-to.
We went furniture shopping yesterday and it was a bust. We're trying to find a chest to match the dresser we bought four years ago and it's not happening. Lesson to us for the future: buy the bedroom set.
Awaiting our bundle of cute chaos.
F15 January Siggy Challenge: What You're Looking Forward to Most after Baby Arrives
I decided to do my hair, makeup, and nails yesterday. My DH and I went to dinner with a pregnant couple that we are friends with and DH was just checking me out the whole time. He couldn't stay involved in a conversation the whole time. That was such a great feeling starting to not feel like a fat blumpy blob

I got a pedicure yesterday and I realized that I forgot to shave one leg in the shower the night before. I decided to try to tame the bikini area (long overdue) and I guess I got distracted. Oops.
I haven't decided yet if I'm going to leave my bed today (other than to pee and get snacks of course). I slept horribly last night/week. I think my sleep-brain is trying to see how many consecutive nightmares I can handle. I give up; you totally win, sleep-brain.
January siggy challenge: Tying my own damn shoes again.
Seems like this week has just really been going slow for me.. I have an elective u/s on Monday and can't wait to find out the gender! Also, 16 weeks as of today!
Today's to-do list: wait for my husband to leave for work for a short while. I'm very easily enraged by him lately(mostly his complete inconsideration for my). I'd like to stay calm for a few hours for once.
"Mommy, you wanna hear something that's really important for you?" "Sure, what is it Nia?" "In the bathroom, one of your earrings is stuck down the drain in the sink." 'Umm, I don't even wanna know." o_O
F15 January Siggy Challenge: What I'm Looking Forward to After the Babies Arrive Bringing them both home...UPDATE...The girls are home!!! 1/7/15 after 20 days in the NICU!
I'm finally 15 weeks today! I celebrated by lingering in bed for an extra hour.
I went to a BBQ and had a lot of uninvited belly rubs... But they were close friends, was surprised that I actually didn't mind it. For everyone else that isn't close, I believe I will still karate chop them before they make contact.

I'm 15 weeks today, too! Whatever happened to our Sunday ticker change posts? I'm celebrating the day by working (I work at a church). Oh well, at least there's room for a nap in here somewhere today!!
We were woken in at 320am this morning by the wonderful earthquake..the joys of living in CA. At that point I made my very drunk hubby get off the bathroom floor to get into bed.

I was wondering if we had anyone over in that area.

Yea lots of power outages and a hwy is closed, the road is buckled. Luckily we are about 20 mins from the coast so no damage here.
I've done 3 loads of laundry, I have 3 left. Only 1 load of laundry belongs to me and DS which means the other 5 loads are DH's clothes, towels and my lap blankets. Half the clothes were folded which means DH saw that there were clothes in the hamper and automatically aimed they were dirty so he tossed them in worth the other dirty clothes. I hate washing clean clothes.
I'm having my most productive day in a while. Four loads of laundry, kids rooms cleaned, dishes done, stainless appliances buffed, cooktop washed.... And yet so much more to do. Vacuum house, wash floors, change beds (moar laundry). I need a maid.
There's a blogger in the interwebs called 'clean mama' and she and her beautiful lists are my hero.
We went to church today and then DH decided that I needed a fancy sleep pillow after I kept him up most of the night. We went to Target and got the boppy and I napped UNINTERRUPTED for almost two hours. Amazing. That pillow is amazing. Now I'm headed to Flyball practice with the dogs! They've had a few weeks off since the national championship, so I'm sure they will be full of themselves

Twins? You mean two babies? WOW!
Team PURPLE!!
We are excited to meet William Alexander and Harper Abigail in 2015!
I made cupcakes for my brother in laws birthday (I mean, they were kinda for me, but I'm glad I got an excuse to make them.) I burned half of the bottoms of them, so I brought 12 over and kept the 12 burnt ones on my counter to throw out when I got back. Except I invented cupcake sandwiches! Cut off the burnt bottoms of two, slather the insides with frosting, and slap them together. And since they're cut open, they have no calories- they all fell out! I feel like a cool Pinterest success.

When I first glanced at this I really thought you'd said you were celebrating 15 weeks with buying lingerie. I was thinking "wow, prancing around in fancy underwear has NOT been on my to do list lately."
Mental note: lingering and lingerie are not the same word.
Oh Oreo Minis how I love you so...pre-dinner dessert is the best...any else been eating sweets BEFORE a meal lately?
Oh, it's just me...okay...

Turned 13 weeks yesterday. I'm going to just consider myself in 2nd tri now.
Went facebook public today. I didn't make a cute pic for it so I just added a life event to annouce it.Had a lot more people care then I thought. No one in Dh's family has liked it at all.
Dh now likes to tell me I look bigger blah. I figure now would be a good time to announce since at work I caughter teachers staring at my stomach on saturday.
