Happy weekend!
My long blond dog decided to begin Echo-Fest by blasting puke at 1am. Awesome. DH cleaned it all up while I tried to not puke. But later we are going out for a traditional Irish breakfast for my birthday. Yay!
What does your weekend look like?

Re: Weekend Randoms • 6/2 & 6/3
We're driving 4 hours to St Louis for a wedding this weekend for one of my sorority sisters. I'm super excited for this wedding because I was there when she met the guy and it was an immediate attraction between the two! That would have been Fall 2013 I believe, so this has been a long time coming for them!!

I am currently in Kelley's Island in Lake Erie with some girlfriends for the weekend. Skipped the excursion to the bar last night and just went to bed and it was the best decision ever
i don’t think we have much planned today. I promised DD ice cream and we may go to the pool this afternoon, but that’s about all that’s on my agenda. Pretty much the same for tomorrow.
DD decided to get up at 4:50 this morning
eta my random/complaint. DH had to go back into work last night at about 10 pm after working a full day. He said he thought he’d be back around 1am but I woke up at 2:30 and he still wasn’t home so I texted him to make sure he was ok (what he was doing was semi-dangerous in my opinion). He didn’t text me back until after 3, so naturally by then I was starting to freak out a little bit. So I was all worked up and worried and couldn’t sleep even after I heard from him. I was just about falling asleep when he came home around 4:30 which woke me up again. So long story short I got about an hour of real sleep between 2:30am and when my dd woke up screaming. All the coffee, please.
We've got our block party today; its traditional in this town for every block to throw two enormous block parties every year, where you block off the street and party from dawn late into the night. Bounce houses, taco trucks, free flowing booze (not that I can partake)... It's fun, but exhausting. We've got 20+ kids grade school and younger on the block (currently we're the 2nd youngest); Nugget has been chattering about "Go see neighbors!" now for days, so I think she's gonna have a great time.
@AGK2015 Block party sounds SO fun! I wish we did that in our neighborhood- enjoy!
AFM, we are having a low key, restful weekend. I've been having really bad nausea at night and between that, new job, new work responsibilities for my husband and potty training DD, we are TIRED. All that's on the agenda this weekend is to keep up with potty training, deep clean our apartment and for me to get some writing and exercise done. We're supposed to have brunch with friends tomorrow but I'm getting a bit nervous about taking DD because she's still having accidents fairly regularly and she's never used a public restroom/big potty. I almost feel like I should skip it til she's further into potty training and more consistent with success - thoughts?
@AGK2015 I love vlock parties!! I remember watching movies like Sandlot and thinking "it would be awesome to have a block party like they do for the 4th of July"!! Almost 3 years ago we moved onto a court and we have awesome neighbors (most around our afe). We also do about 2 block parties a year, and just hangout a lot in general. Our neighbors are the best part of our house, honestly!
@hkom Have fun on your girls' weekend! That sounds so amazing right now!
@maureenmce good luck with potty training! FX for you!
AFM, I'm going to our friends' son's birthday party this afternoon. It's outside and of cousec, today is like 20° colder than it's been the last week! I feel so bad! But at least it's over 60, so not too bad.

Late last night I wanted pancakes, but we didn’t have any. Right now I’m making a big batch and I’ll freeze them. Then I can pop one in the microwave if the craving returns (I’m eating some fresh too!)
This afternoon we are also celebrating a birthday. My SO’s birthday was earlier this week, but we are going to his moms house today because she wanted a reason to BBQ and have us over. It’s his last “not a dad” birthday, so he’s making kind of a big deal about it.
We told my stepdaughter last night about the baby. This weekend we are letting her guide us. So far, she wants to do some baby things, so we are making our list of names and will share our lists with each other when we find out gender. We cleaned out her bedroom, as she will upgrade to the larger bedroom (by choice). And tomorrow we are headed to a museum.

I want to be at that block party @AGK2015!!
my daughters first birthday is Wednesday and my dad sent a playhouse for her and I set it up all by myself!! I am so proud. And she loves it.
In other news, we did drive into the city briefly for a friend's kid's first birthday party, and I had my very first ever "Oh shit, pull over RIGHT NOW" curb vomit moment, of either pregnancy. Yay milestones?
Also I LOVE that playhouse @Jens_Hoes! Is that a water table on the side, too? So cute!
side note: for those that exercise how the hell do you do it. I have a 1 year old and a full time job (M-F leave the house at 645 get home at 5). My husband owns his own excavation business and essentially I have been single parenting since April and will until this baby is born. I just don’t know how to find the time. I am unhappy with how large and messy I feel already, and I know part of that is because I gave birth a year ago and never got back in shape. But I have a long way to go before this baby comes out. Ugh that was a dear diary post.
she had a miscarriage a few weeks before I had my loss and we were due close to each other with the babies we lost. I really hope we both end up with rainbow babies together ❤️
Married: 4/5/13

@fernsy I’m sorry you had to work all weekend; that in no way makes you a jerk, just a hard working parent doing her best. It had to be hard, especially on a week you had already lost time, but you’re doing what you have to. Were you able to get in any fun quality time before or after work?
My BFF growing up- our bdays are 9 days apart. She had a MC but then ended up pg right before me. We were technically due a month apart but because she was overdue and DD came early, their bdays are 8 days apart. I know if she didn't have that MC, that wouldn't have happened. I believe it happened for a reason , so we could be pg together and our DDs are 2nd gen. BFFS. I hope this is your SILs sticky baby so you can experience that too.
