@HoosOnFirst The White House will also send you a congrats card if you send them a wedding invitation. I still have the congrats card for DS1 when Obama was president. I didn't get one for DS2 since Trump was already in office. I wonder if they have any leftover Obama congrats cards that they can mail me instead....
Yes - all of you move to BC! I am on the coast and we get super mild winters (usually a week or two of snow at most). But we do get a lot of rain!
I definitely feel lucky to live where I do at the moment, all my mom's family is in the US and it's scary thinking about the stuff going on there right now.
Sooo happy that it’s friday! I’m looking forward to a bunch a “me” time this weekend... I’m planning to go to prenatal yoga on Sunday afternoon, and I’m finally going for a prenatal massage tomorrow, that I’ve been wanting to do for weeks!!
@jennybeams OMg yes you are right from 1998. Not sure why my pregnant brain kept writing 2008. Maybe because 1998 is SOOO long ago I must of thought it looked funny to write that. Can you believe 20 years of change and the schools can't teach any of that change! So stupid

omg don't even get me started on this damn sex ed curriculum. So pissed.
Because apparently it's not important for kids to learn about consent, or safe expression online, or knowing that 'sexting' under the age of 18 can actually constitute as child pornography....
Ugh, wtf. Of course on the day I'm taking my glucose test, people brought in cupcakes and my boss ordered pizza. I'm sitting in here eating my stupid salad. The pizza smells so delicious! Wahhhh.
@hannaht8516 It's always to do those tests as early as possible.
Kudos ladies for holding a civilized political conversation. Although I don't see any supporters so that helps. How the heck did he get into office again.

@chyvie I'm not like fully on him lol but when he takes the body pillow I had between us then he becomes the body pillow. I throw one leg on him and my arm over him and I'm at an angle where I'm not fully in my side or belly so it rests like against him. It's not too bad for a few hours then he gets all sweaty and gross
@mamabearcj that is how we normally fall asleep! That side position works great!! I don't do a leg over dh because we get warm faster and I think I cut off blood flow with my leg lol that is important so I use a body pillow behind me to support my knees/hips/legs.
bringing it back to weather....I watered my poor, dying mint plant 10 min ago, AND STEAM CAME OFF THE DAMN POT. It's too damn hot here right now. F U summer.
I meant to do it after Z was born and forgot. Then Trump was sworn in and I didn’t want to. Someone later told me I still would’ve gotten one signed by Obama because he was president when Z was born, but I never got around to it. It’s probably too late now. Lol
@hoosonfirst thats crazy man, how it varies from town to town. Yeah where I’m at is not like that at all. We had a town wide campaign to hang rainbow flags on all the houses like a year or two ago. I’d say about 1/3 houses in our town have rainbow flags that say “peace” on them hanging somewhere out front.
Today shall be interesting. I barely slept, woke up hungry already, my phone didn't charge last night (thankfully was up early so I got some charge), and I've already thrown up. I'm now sitting for my 3hr test. I made DH drop me off so he can pick me up later. And then I'm napping.
My random struggle today. I am at a festival (have a booth set up) and I am near a Fudge vendor. Not too big a deal as I am not a big chocolate fan, but it SMELLS like brownies baking. I love fudgy brownies with nothing on en and inside pieces (edge is ok but inside is better!) and I am a two week 4x a day monitoring my blood sugar... Darn you Fudge that smells like brownies I really really want to eat!
Driving back from our nail appt, (that DH tagged along to sit there) MIL saw a house with a bunch of baby stuff and a sign $5 or less. We stopped and DH instantly starts looking through clothes, I start looking through clothes, we end up with 2 large bags of nb through 12-18mnth for both babies, socks, and 5 packs of nb diapers for $21!! We told her were having twins and she thought it was so cool and since she lives up the road from MIL she told her when they grow out of stuff she could always come knocking because she has a lot more she hasnt pulled out yet. What a sweet woman and awesome deal!!
Laying on the couch watching a movie with my kiddos. It’s been a couple of days since I’ve shaved my armpits and I’m wearing a tank top, and I have one arm behind my head. DS comes over to me and goes “what’s that?” and touches my oh-so-attractive armpit stubble. He gets this horrified look on his face and goes “Mama that’s yucky. Put your arm down right now. Yuck.”
I'm gonna put this here since I'm sure not everyone reads the GD thread. I PASSED. I'm seriously so relieved. I JUST barely passed my 1 and 2 hour (by 1 and 2 points), but my 3 hr was back down to my fasting level (which I thought was interesting). We will see what my Dr says since it was so close, but I also was carb loading.
Re: Randoms 7/19
@HoosOnFirst Pretty sure that goes against the flag code...
Maybe this is an UO but - DO NOT touch me when I'm sleeping DH

I at least remembered to eat before bed so I'm not fasting for like 15 hours for this test.
On an unrelated note, does anyone know of a good place to dispose of a body?
Napping is in your future!
