    Those look good! I'm jealous. What recipe did you use? I have to eat GF and I definitely miss cinnamon rolls. I made GF carrot cake last weekend and it hit the spot.

    I found it on Pinterest and it’s not bad!! Most of my husbands family is GF so we have to adapt most recipes.

    @AmMcc12 We went to the beach for the weekend so I ended up driving back on actual Mother's  Day 😂. It was worth it though.
    How was yours??

    @alpacamama2 a beach weekend sounds awesome! My day was good. We had brunch at the in laws and dinner at my parents. It was nice because I didn’t have to cook anything and the 6 yo was entertained by others 😂

    @alpacamama2 I asked for 2 things for Mother's Day: to be allowed to sleep in and to not be responsible for dinner. Well, my 20mo had other plans and refused to let me sleep past 5:20am. But MH did a great job cooking for me!

    I am assuming that the baby is doing jazzercise or something but I just can't feel it yet.

    We were pre-approved for a home loan yesterday and are meeting with the realtor today. 🤞🏻 we are able to get into a house before this baby comes!

    I need to build up the nerve to nicely tell my husband that he needs to help me with toddler ALL of the time now bc at 18 weeks I'm so afraid it's going to just keep getting worse... I'm afraid there isn't going to be a point where he's just going to sense that I need some help... bath and bedtime are so much work...

    @lindz42 I hear you on needing the help! I told my husband a few weeks back that I needed more help with specific things because I just can't manage to do them myself (ex carrying our toddler around, having time to do certain cleaning chores while he's with the toddler etc) and then I just mentioned that it makes my life a whole lot easier when he does "XYZ". Since I only recently weaned our toddler, it's helped so much that now he does the bedtime routine and occasional nap routine when he can. He also is able to take our toddler for daily walks either early in the morning or in the evening which is so helpful! 

    So you can do it! Just tell him flat out the things that you can't do as well anymore, or tell him how him helping with those tasks really allows you to rest/be more productive at other times/be in a good mood. It's hard asking for help and sometimes a little bit frustrating to feel like you need to point out the fact that you can't do everything when they should already see it.
