  • @hitcj4687 Since DH and I's wedding anniversary is only a month after valentines day (3/16) we always celebrate it as a family instead! So we put together little gift baskets for the boys (this year, it's some chocolate, books, and a few little trinket toys like playdoh - in the past we have done stuffed animals or crafts, etc. too, as big or small as you want!), get them flowers, and go out for dinner and dessert at one of their favorite places (a hyper-local pizza buffet place that they love). DH and I will spend the evening together after bedtime of course, but the focus is on the kids. I also always write them a letter and keep it for when they're older. I am the softest person on the planet and think the V Day hate is super misplaced - there's nothing on earth more important than love, of all kinds not just romantic! And it is so special to me to celebrate our kids and our family as a whole every year.

    Interesting baby fact / Baby is the size of:
    A size 14 men's shoe like I'm supposed to know how big that is lol. 

    Upcoming appointments:
    Tomorrow for my last prenatal and Thursday for my last MFM growth scan before we move. 

    How are you feeling:
    My appetite is just gone, I've barely been eating because I'm just not hungry at all, it's so weird.

    Rants / Raves:
    Happy Viability day to me!!!! 
    This baby is so sweet and absolutely loves music, and packing is going really well, 15 days left 🥲
    Rant is that my SO decided at 9 am to drop the news that I need to come with him to lunch with his old boss and former CEO of the company so he see our son before we move AND his DND friend is back in town so he's coming over this evening and can I make a vegan dinner.. 
    Like dude. You've known me 12 years, you know better than to spring last minute plans on me because of your lack of foresight. I don't even have ingredients to make a vegan dinner. So in other news I was going to spend the day at the park with my son because it's going to be 57 but now I guess I'm going to be cleaning our crazy box filled house up and ordering Mediterranean for dinner lol. Rip to my Monday, I hate having company over. 

    Questions:

    GTKY: Milk chocolate, dark chocolate, white chocolate, or no chocolate
    Dark and milk on certain things and infrequent occasions, but I'll never say no to white chocolate lol

    Interesting baby fact / Baby is the size of:
    The baby is now heavier than the placenta. 

    Upcoming appointments:
    Honestly, I don't even know. I will probably not go to another until we go biweekly. With my last we only did 3 appts total. Pandemic and all and the stress level was so much better than with the others. This one we've done 2 total thus far.

    How are you feeling: I feel great honestly. I mean the pregnancy things are all there but I'm feeling energized. I need to get more maternity pants. I have only bought 5 maternity things in total (besides undies and bras) with all pregnancies. So they are a bit worn at this point🤣

    Rants / Raves: I put laundry baskets all over the house, I just picked up about a laundry baskets worth of clothes just scattered about. I have to bend down and grab up random socks and undies and PJs. Don't get me started on my husband's clothes! I just can't understand what is so hard about putting it in the darn hamper. The dreadful laundry search takes longer than swappin loads. Thankfully we have electric wash machines so laundry isn't so bad. My ancestors loathe me and my 1st world problems. 😒 

    Questions: My husband is a plant fanatic. I come home to flowers, either wild ones from the land that my boys picked or ones my husband found at the store, often. It's the little things. My birthday is so close, we only celebrate the kiddos on vday. He may get me flowers. I usually cook heart shaped foods on vday. The kids do breakfast in bed for us. They did it yesterday. Haha so sweet. Our anniversary is next month so we wait for then. This year we are going all out for my husband's birthday a couple months post baby. To celebrate the birth, eachother, and of course his old age. So that trip will be a nice getaway for us as a couple. I'll hold out for that.

    GTKY: Milk chocolate, dark chocolate, white chocolate, or no chocolate?
    I'm not really a chocolate craving gal. I used to own a store that did chocolates and dipped fruits. I love fruit dipped in white chocolate most. Milk chocolate with toffee and I do love dark chocolate with almonds. It just depends on the situation I guess. 

    We're getting closer ladies. Only a few more weeks on the 2nd trimester!!!!

    Rants / Raves: I don’t get why my kids’ class has to have a concert for every holiday. See tomorrow’s Tuesday morning Valentine’s Day concert.

    Questions:

    GTKY: Milk chocolate, dark chocolate, white chocolate, or no chocolate?

    Very dark chocolate. I’ve gotten so used to eating the higher percentage chocolates because of the lower sugar amount that milk chocolate tastes too sweet now.
