Monday Pregnancy QOTD ~ Right now, we're registered at Target and BRU.....I started them on-line about 2 weeks ago, still have NOT been into either store to "officially" register.  There are a few items I want for baby at PBK too, but I'm not sure if we'll register there or just buy those items ourselves.  We will be buying our crib, dresser/changing table and glider - and we're hoping the rest will be purchased off our registry.

Monday Non-Pregnancy QOTD ~ Ahhhhh, pampering   Well, so far all I've done is have a facial (which was much needed as pregnancy has NOT been good to my skin) and a pedi/mani.  I'm looking forward to getting a pre-natal massage in a few weeks!  Dh has really been very sweet, he'll get me food when I need it, rub my back or neck whenever I ask and he's taken over some of the household stuff that hurts my back to do

Here's my mini-AW for the day......we have our BIG US on Thursday this week and I'm SO excited to find out who baby Albert is

preg: we are going to register at Targer & BRU.  I am planning on registering in April sometime.  I have a hard time picking stuff out (especially since it will have to be gender neutral) so registering is not something I am really looking forward to.

non-preg: I just had a pedi on Friday--it was heaven.  I am planning on having pedis every month/6 weeks until baby arrives as it's my main indulgence anyways!

 Have fun at your u/s Peachy!  We have another anatomy scan on Wednesday of this week (at the level II before the amnio, they couldn't quite see all 4 chambers of the heart.  Plus the baby was not in a good position to get a good look at the whole spine).  I love having an ultrasound to look forward to!

I found out two weeks ago it's a BOY!

 This is my second baby but my best friend is throwing me a shower since it's been 5 years since my son was born.  I am going to register at Target and probably Walmart. I have a cousin who had a boy two years ago and is giving me a TON of stuff so hopefully I won't need too much.

As for pampering, I don't have much time! That sounds really wonderful though I am going to need to MAKE time for that!

QOTD- I don't know if we'll register...

2nd QOTD- I had hi-lights and low-lights done for the first time ever a couple of weeks ago! I've had a sore back the entire pregnancy and dh has been great with the massages. I hope to get a pedicure in a few weeks.

 We have not registered yet. I am looking at maybe registering when we are about 25-28 weeks. Probably Target, and this little shop in Madison, WI called Satara's (all "green" baby stuff )

We are lucky. At my place of work (I am a teacher at an elementary school) we have a masseusse that comes in twice a month. He charges $20.00 for a half-hour back/arms/neck massage. It is awesome! It has to do something with our wellness initiative in the school district, trying to keep the employees as stress free as possible!

Pregnancy QOTD ~ We are going to register at BRU and Buy Buy Baby. We're going to register after our big u/s in about two weeks. We're registering for all of the big stuff but we already bought the bedding we liked. There are a few things we want from Target that we'll probably buy cause it's not enough for a registry.

Non-Pregnancy QOTD ~ I haven't done much to pamper myself yet but I am totally dreaming of a PG massage! My DH has been helpful with lifting/carrying stuff and some housework.

Oh! And I had a birthday so you can update my age to 31...yikes!

Monday Pregnancy QOTD ~ Lets talk registries....where are you going to register?  When will you register/when did you register?  What will you & Dh buy/what items will you register for?

Registered at BRU & Target.  We bought the glider on sale at BRU in Dec.  Have picked up a eurobath & bouncer seat at local consignment sales.  Registered for pretty much everything else you'd normally need except for some shelves we bought that we're using for a dresser & the crib my ILs are getting for us.

Monday Non-Pregnancy QOTD ~ Let's talk pampering....what are you doing to pamper yourself OR what is your Dh/SO doing to pamper you?

Nothing really.  I feel guilty spending $ on myself so I try to keep it to a minimum
