Yesterday after naptime we had our first beach evening and it was great!!!! It's making me so excited for this summer. The kids had a ball and they actually both passed out when they got home (it usually takes DS like 2 hrs to finally fall asleep). We're going this morning too before the rain comes in!
@jynjer91 congratulations on becoming an aunt, that is so exciting! Hopefully she understands. Are you able to visit her soon at least?
I found out my sister is pregnant 2 days before I found out I was pregnant. I’m so excited to be pregnant with her, but have already had a few emotional moments knowing that I won’t be able to be there when my first niece is born because she is due 4 weeks before me. As @mamabearcj mentioned, FaceTime is a great option so I will definitely be using that!
@spartan4life That’s so cool you are due only a month apart!! I have appointments all next week but I’m planning to go ASAP! I did find some decent tickets if I book over a week out.
Ughhhhh. I have to give a client terrible news right now (8 am holiday weekend, their dog is in kidney failure) and it's fairly unexpected and sometimes my job makes me sad. And I love this dog

Me: Why would a ball make her kids pass out? Did they get hit in the head with it or something? Would that even make them pass out?
It seriously took me a few minutes to figure out you didn’t mean a literal ball. ::facepalm::
@estellegetty, sorry about the asthma attack. I get reoccurring bronchitis when I'm pregnant for some reason so they prescribe me an inhaler as well. I'm still trying to shake this cough from I think was almost a month ago now. It sucks so I hope you feel better soon.
@kiwi2628 sorry about you having to give the bad news!
We’re on a road trip this weekend to Calgary and Banff. We did the Calgary Zoo with a good friend yesterday (mostly to see the Pandas!) and then drove on to Banff. The weather is gorgeous, and the scenery is great. We saw a few elk yesterday. But the kids are being AWFUL! So DH and I are tired and grumpy, which isn’t helping.
But my little brother happens to also be here this weekend, so we’re going to meet up tomorrow. The kids love Uncle Brad, so hopefully that will help regulate the crazy.
@sammierose464 I'm so impressed!! I've seriously started *thinking* about what I want in the nursery and used a free online tool to make sure everything I *may* want will fit. That's about it.
Is it weird that I'm not feeling all that inspired to do the nursery thing? Maybe it's because our nursery was put together in our old house, we had to pull it back apart, and just put it back together this morning.
@sammierose464 So fun! We (or I should say DH and FIL) are starting ours this weekend too! They have to demo the whole thing first (pic in spoiler) so it will probably be a month or two before I get to do the fun decorating stuff.
Do we already have a nursery thread? I don't remember seeing one. It might be fun to share ideas if everyone is starting on them soon?
Mine won't get much done before baby gets here. Probably just paint and a rug. My H is currently using the room for all his clothing and other crap. LO will be in our room for the first 6 months and DD is currently using the crib, so not a lot I can do at the moment!
I don’t think we have a nursery thread. I think we had a theme thread months ago, but it would be cool to do a finished nursery pictures thread We should definitely start one. We will be setting up a nursery for LO, but we are reusing all the stuff from DS so it will be nautical.
We finally announced on social media. Wasn’t planning on it but we had told all the people we wanted to tell one in one and I’ve been kind of avoiding photos since getting pregnant, and realized sharing the news would just make me more comfortable. Couldn’t find/remember if we had an announcement thread. So sorry in advance If it belongs there! It’s in the spoiler—my H and I are really into climbing.
ETA:found the thread and moved the pic there. I’m chalking this one up to baby brain.
A little over 18yrs ago, I visited my brother’s best friend and his girlfriend in the hospital to meet their infant son. Today, I got to go to his high school graduation party. Somewhere in the middle, he turned into a stringbean of a young man that looks so much like his dad it takes my breath away. Also- he learned how to carry a conversation- surprise, he can speak!
It's a good thing we went to the beach 2 days in a row because it is downright disgusting this morning! which means the kids and I are stuck inside. Ugh.
Trying to catch up a bit here after not checking in yesterday. Long travel day yesterday flying to the east coast, but we made it and DS did awesome on the 5 hour flight!
@kiwi2628 sorry you have to give sad news about your patient.
@jynjer91 ew that sounds awful, then all your clothes would smell like pinesol!
Yesterday was a long day of unpacking and there were only a few boxes at the new house. Today H is loading up the last of it and I’ll be spending the day unpacking again. Can’t wait till it’s over!
Its my birthday too and even tho I never care if anyone does anything for me, H always plans some big thing. Im kind of bummed he can’t this year since it’s my 30th but oh well.
Happy 30th birthday @krzyriver Maybe he will surprise you with a party in a couple of weeks when you guys are all settled and less stressed from moving.
I feel your pain with the packing! It is the WORST. At least we aren't doing it when we are in the third trimester. I don't know if I would be able to bend over! LOL
Me 33 DH 41 TTC since 2016 Due: October 12, 2018 Location: Ontario, Canada
Finally scored at BRU yesterday. Lowest discount was 40%, and saved a bundle on a sleep sack, cloth diapers, and sheets for the pack and play and Halo bassinet!
@chyvie Oh god, I can’t even imagine! I finally said forget it, you pack. I’m in charge of unpacking, which is fine cause I don’t trust him to set up the house the way I want!

@jennybean80 I’ve always wanted to go to Banff, it’ll be on my list once this other one comes.
It looks pretty bland in there. Needs some color.

So I guess at 21w4d the bump doesn't have a daily fact for me? Kinda bummed about it because DH loved them and I read somewhere they don't come back..
