1. Upstairs in the loft and I should be reading to prep for class tomorrow but here I am 2. I am only 9 weeks but I feel like I look so pregnant! I have belly fat that stuck around from my first pregnancy (DS is 15 months) and I had some belly fat before that. Now I feel like it's all just stuck out all the time. Im not "showing"... I know from last time that I can 100% tell when I have an actual bump, but I still look different. 3. So thankful for being a SAHM in this awkward stage and wearing leggings and loose shirts all the time and I don't have to see anyone if I don't want to! 4. I think DS is coming down with something he was super unhappy and clingy all day and just now he pooped twice in like 15 minutes and they were very loose and smelled different. 5. I'm annoyed with SIL for bringing my sick nephew to a family event Sunday. She was definitely being selfish and just didn't want to miss the event and stay home with him. Then I found out my niece (his sister) had to stay home from daycare today because she's sick now. And my MIL came into town to watch her and is pushing to see DS. Um no. Everyone stay away with your germs. !!!!! 6. I am finally feeling hungry again the last few days. It hit me at (of all places!) the grocery store yesterday and I spent so much money on stupid stuff! 7. I really need to up my water intake. 8. The insurance company is giving me a hard time about filling a Diclegis prescription because you can take B6 and Unisome over the counter and it's the "same thing"... except you have to take four B6 so I'm nauseated off and on all day when needing to take another one. And Unisome makes me sleep like a rock which makes it very very hard to get up with DS and I feel terrible every morning. So the better effing fill it! 9. I really need to get on the ball with figuring out our pregnancy announcement. 10. Ok. I guess I have to go read "The Politics of Resentment". BOO
1. Just talked to the exterminator and since MH jumped on home treatments as soon as we figured out the issue Saturday, he think we've probably resolved it on our own without needing him to come out. So we are in the clear to finish our game plan on our own unless one of us gets more bites.
2. I am so grateful to be pregnant but I am so incredibly tired of this cough that causes me to get sick. No one enjoys throwing up.
3. MH was so worried about me getting sick today that he drove home to make me tea, food and check on me in the middle of his busy 12 hour day of training.
4. MH took DS to play in the family room this am so I could get a little more sleep; DS woke up screaming at 3 am and MH finally gave up on getting him back down and gave up his sleep for me.
5. MH has gladly taken over cleaning the bathrooms for the next several months.
6. My SIL actually spontaneously called to check on me today--for the first time ever. It was really nice.
7. There's leftover KFC for my dinner tonight. Yum.
8. I got a shower today. It was glorious.
9. MH brought home a variety dozen chocolate doughnuts from Krispy Kreme yesterday.
10. DS has been so loving the past few days of his mommy just laying on the couch or in the bed. He gives me extra hugs, kisses and snuggles.
@kitandcat omg that sucks. I hate when people knowingly bring sick kiddos or germs around me and my family. Also, I gave up at 11 weeks and just started dressing the blump because I'd rather look pregnant than fat. Ha. Maternity clothes are in full force here. GL on the reading!
1. This evening I found out that a friend's husband was arrested for attempting to hire an undercover officer posing as a prostitute.
2. I found out via FB post on a local news station. I'm sure a LOT of people they know will find out the same way. I don't even know what to say to her. Should I just ignore it and act like I haven't? I feel like not only would I be upset/angry/sad, to top it all off, I'd be humiliated that it's all over local social media.
3. Eating a chick-fil-a chicken sandwich right now and it's DELICIOUS. I haven't been able to keep meat down in what feels like forever.
4. I'm rewatching Dawson's Creek. I love this show but I forgot how absolutely ridiculous it is.
5. DH ordered me a snoogle and it got here yesterday. Last night I slept better than I have in weeks!
6. I'm done with my chicken sandwich. Now I want chocolate. Or a donut, thanks to @mdfarmchick
7. I want to shower but I'm too tired to get up.
8. I'll be 30 this weekend. When did this happen?
9. Like @kitandcat I also REALLY need to up my water intake. It's been bad for the last few days.
10. So ready for summer to be over. I usually love summer but I'm desperate for cooler weather right now.
1. I also need to up my water intake. I've been really bad about drinking water and it's definitely playing into my constipation. Awesome.
2. Today was my DD's 2nd birthday. She got a ton of new toys and it was so sweet to watch her open her presents.
3. My SO works running a legal cannabis farm. (We live in WA.) They discovered bugs so they're spraying these weird organic pesticides until harvest. The bummer is that they can't spray during the day, because the sun will interact with the pesticides and burn the plants. So he's been having to work early mornings and/or late nights. It's been totally draining us both.
4. I agreed to watch my friend's 3 kids, ages 4, 2, and 1 for two nights starting tomorrow. We're staying at their house and I'm DREADING it. They're on a trip to Puerto Rico for 10 days and I am honestly annoyed that they didn't work out funds to pay the multiple babysitters who are taking shifts with their kids. Did I mention it's 3 under 4? Why did I agree to this?
5. I have donuts at my house too but they're just store deli donuts. Lame.
6. If my calculations are correct, I won't have the opportunity to nap again until Friday.
7. I am in desperate need of a shower.
8. My morning sickness went away and now it seems to be creeping back up again, along with my intensified sense of smell.
9. I annnounced my pregnancy on Facebook today because I don't feel like keeping it a secret anymore.
10. Like @mdfarmchick was saying, I've given up and started dressing the blump at 10 weeks. Idc. I'm a STM, my stomach is protruding out in a way that screams, "These stomach muscles are completely letting go because this chick is PREGNANT!", and my uterus is too sensetive to have regular or tight pants press against it. Maternity clothes win. Embracing the blump ova here.
1. Nausea had been slooowly easing up the last week, and then today it was back full force. WHY BODY. 2. Still haven't gotten a donut. Might do it as a treat after my Thurs OB appt. 3. I want to be excited for this work trip to Germany, but right now I'm just upset that I'm losing out on a 3-day weekend with MW, since we only get to really spend time together on weekends. 4. I'm putting too much thought into silly non-problems right now, like breaking the news that I'm having a girl to my ballet-teaching friend with two boys (who she loves, but who aren't super interested in wearing tutus xD) 5. What I should be figuring out is more important stuff like how to have a working cell phone in Germany for two weeks. Buuut meh. Rentals apparently exist. 6. Today I finally almost cried at work over nothing. I managed to not, but it was annoyingly close. 7. I haven't been able to stomach cooking for almost a month now. Been living on frozen meals and delivery mostly. But at least I am eating food. 8. I am honestly proud of myself for not taking a sick day at all since getting pregnant. I have been sorely tempted a few times, but only because I wanted to sleep another few hours. 9. I collect and customize Monster High dolls, though I've gotten less interested since the reboot and new sculpts. 10. I will never admit to anyone exactly how many times I've had ice cream for breakfast since getting pregnant.
1. My MIL is going through testing to see if she has cancer. It's a scary time, but we just try to spend time with her, bring meals over, play cards, etc. We should know more next month when she gets results back.
2. My older sister is pregnant, too. She is a FTM and I'm being very judgy about her selfishness - she just lost a ton of weight and said the last 35 lbs (what she should gain during pregnancy) was the hardest, she doesn't want to take out her belly button ring, etc. I hope once her LO is here she will realize it's all worth it, but COME ON.
3. This call is super boring. The presenter just said "What we do do," so that made me chuckle.
4. I got annoyed last night bc I wanted to watch the Leah Remini Scientology show at my ILs house. We don't get A&E at home so watch it over there. We waited til we could FF the commercials to watch it, then realized it didn't tape bc 2 other things were taping. I was irrationally upset and had to keep it in check bc it's not my cable.
5. I mentor a middle school student and am excited for our first meeting of the school year next week.
6. I need to get my hair did but I don't want to spend the money.
7. Tonight is the only evening I have this week where I don't have something to do. Can't wait to just veg.
8. I need to cut my fingernails before I accidentally stab my DD's eye out with these talons - yikes.
9. I have a black pug named Dexter. He is a hot mess. He has diabetes and gets 2 shots of insulin per day. He has allergies so has to eat special food and take meds. A few years back, he had cataracts and we took him to a canine ophthalmologist for surgery. We sure do love this silly boy!!
1. If I am half the mother my mom is, I will be okay and so will this baby! 2. We announced it to social media last night and I feel so relieved! 3. I'm eating these really healthy cookies and now I wish I had milk. 4. I am over snacking. I am ready to eat full meals again. 5. I do not want to go to the DMV on my lunch today... 6. Tomorrow is my mom's bday. I can't wait to celebrate with her and my family. 7. Anyone else excited for Labor Day???? The holiday, not us actually going into labor. 8. I now love wearing lipstick. Why haven't I tried this before!? 9. Seriously, so ready for football that's not pre-season! 10. I just realized I do have milk in the fridge here at work. COOKIES AND MILK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
