1. how are you feeling? 13 days pp....tired and emotional
2. highlight: getting caroline's newborn pics back lowlight: see other post
3. weekend plans: survival
4. loved ones getting sick
1. Not too bad, except I still have a toothache and headache, which will hopefully go away after next Tuesday's dentist apt.
2. Highlight- Getting hutch from DH's parents painted. Lowlight- actually doing the painting. Those of you that paint, know what I mean. I'm excited how it looks now, but doing it was a pain.
3. Going with DH's parents to visit his grandma in Cincinnati.
4. When I was younger, I always assumed I'd be a mom someday and have kids. Now, I'm terrified that may never happen.

Ask me stuff.
1. how are you feeling? A little tired...and ready for the weekend, as usual
2. highlight/lowlight of your week? Highlight - My weeks are becoming a little routine...I can't even think of a highlight...every day is the same! Lowlight - DS has a little cold and I hate to see him all congested when there is nothing I can do for him! Hoping he starts to feel better this weekend!
3. weekend plans? I WILL work out! Why is it so hard to stick to a work out routine?! Ugg!
4. to complete the series: Something you were not afraid of when you were younger that you are now afraid of? I'm terrified of flying now, but the thought of flying never really bothered me as a child.
1. 38 weeks, 3 days pg and recovering from a nasty headache last night. Now that I'm up and around and at work, I'm feeling better.
2. Highlight - being told on Wednesday at my appt that I have made lots of progress: 2.5 cm dilated, 80% effaced, and baby's head is low, low, low. Not that any of that means anything. Lowlight - nothing really, other than that headache I had last night.
3. Out to eat tonight, going to a festival in the park across the street from our neighborhood tomorrow, and watching both the Colts' and Cowboys' games with some friends on Sunday. Or maybe that will all be interrupted when I have a baby this weekend?? Maybe?
4. Hmmmm...can't really think of anything.
1. how are you feeling? Semi-depressed... Having a rough day.
2. highlight/lowlight of your week? Highlight - getting my Kindle replaced. Lowlight - My dad ripping a chunk of my cat's fur out on accident...it's had me worried all week that it'll get infected.
3. weekend plans? Saturday lunch with my BFF (long overdue!) and probably help my mom make baskets on Sunday.
4. to complete the series: Something you were not afraid of when you were younger that you are now afraid of? I'm terrified of heights all of a sudden. When I was younger I climbed everything, and never fell, so it's not like a fear of falling again.
2. highlight/lowlight of your week? High- Taking out the new bike we bought yesterday. We visited 3 different couples/families when we were out riding. Low- Lots of negative HPTs.
3. weekend plans? Wedding tomorrow. I'd like to ride down to Brown County if the weather stays nice (& DH gets my backrest put on).
4. to complete the series: Something you were not afraid of when you were younger that you are now afraid of? Not being able to conceive and carry a child. I know it's a little soon to worry about this, but it still creeps up in my thoughts.
1. Pretty good. Connor's sleep is slowly improving - hey, it only took 7 months My supply has been dropping though, so I'm running through my freezer stash pretty quickly.
2. Highlight: I just had a lot of fun playing with the kids in the evenings this week. Both of them are at cute stages and make me laugh.
Lowlight: My husband's grandfather has been dying in the hospital all week and finally passed last night.
3. Last night we took the kids to the Spaghetti Factory then cruised around Circle Center and bought a few things at Baby Gap. I'm on-call at the hospital today until 8am tomorrow. Otherwise, I suspect we'll be dealing with the family death and staying close to home.
4. I'll go with cops for this one. And, the longer I'm a doctor the more diagnoses I add to my list of "things I never want to have". I am terrified of acquiring one of them.
