1.  Feeling ok, still on BCP to prep for IVF #4.2

2.  Highlight- dinner at Ted's Montana Grill with DH- we LOVE that place!  Lowlight- We tried to go to a store Dh wanted to go to after dinner, but it was closed.  It didn't occur to us to check the hours since its a speciality store and they may not be open late.  Now, we'll have to make another trip to the other side of town sometime in the next month.

3. I ordered some gifts online last Friday for Dh's birthday and V day.  I'm looking forward to getting them in the mail.

4. Today, a poptart.  I like some variety.  Usually I have a bowl of cereal or yogurt.  But I always have to eat something.

1. How are you feeling? - Well rested after lots of naps over the weekend!2. Weekend highlight? Lowlight? - We tried venturing out of the house twice this weekend but Eli didn't cooperate for very long either time.  Saturday we went to the Home Show at the state fairgrounds - not what we were expecting.  Sunday we tried to go check out the Super Bowl Village but couldn't find a place to park, so we ended up at the IMA instead.  So...highlight - nice to get out, lowlight - didn't last very long.  Oh, and getting to take naps!  That's a huge highlight!3. What are you looking forward to this week? - Having a reunion with our childbirth class and getting to meet everyone else's babies4. What's for breakfast today?  What do you usually have for breakfast? - I love breakfast and wish I could eat it for every meal!  Usually I just have cereal but I heard that oatmeal can help your breastmilk supply so I've switched to that.  This morning it's cinnamon oatmeal, a banana and orange juice.

2. highlight:  wearing the a pair of jeans that were my normal jeans pre-caroline.  there was still a little too much muffin top, but doable with the right shirt.  now to get rid of the muffin top!  lowlight:  it appears it's time to step up our parenting game with audrey.  everyone warned me that 3 was worse than 2 and so far i'm agreeing.  she just wants to be so darned independent and stubborn.  i have no idea where she gets that from!

3. what are you looking forward to this week? It's supposed to be 58 degrees tomorrow! DH & I are planning on going downtown to check out all the Super Bowl stuff - too bad everyone else in Indy will probably have the same idea : )

1.  Still tired.  I swear this is not going to get any better! 

2.  Highlight:  Getting a dresser for DD's big girl room for 1/2 price.  Lowlight:  Feeling sick yesterday.

3.  I'm having a Lia Sophia party on Wed.  Hopefully that will be fun.  I plan on making puppy chow as a snack, so I'll be honest, that's what I'm really excited for. 

4.  I trained today, so I had a little bit of trail mix for breakfast.  Normally, I'll have a couple of waffles or maybe a scrambled egg with a piece of toast.

1. Feeling pretty good. Planning Connor's first birthday party - crazy! So excited to almost be done with the dang breast pump too

2. Highlight: We had a big weekend - date night downtown and ran into a bunch of random friends, Had a great time pretending like I was 23. Connor's first haircut on Saturday went great - I highly recommend Red's downtown for this. Sunday we took the kids to the NFL Experience and Jocelyn had a blast doing all of the football activities.

Lowlight: Still really sad about losing my dog/best friend

3. I am taking Friday off to prepare for out Superbowl guests. Looking forward to getting the house in order and to having a great weekend!

4. I have been eating oatmeal every day since Connor was born to help with my supply. Not sure if I will keep that up once I'm done pumping, but it's easy to take in the car so I may stick with it, Have to have my coffee too, of course!

1. Feeling good 35 weeks and 3 days along my knuckles have been hurting lately, which is weird but apparently common.

2. Highlight: hanging out with our pregnant couple friends Saturday night lowlight: working all weekend, and it was awful! We were swamped and could not get ahead!

3. Looking forward to meeting our pregnant couple friend's babies she was induced this morning! We went to see them earlier and she was at 7cm, and we just got a text that she's at 9 now! They are having twins and we are just super excited! Also looking forward to finding out if this rash is PUPPP or ICP.

4. Had peanut butter toast this morning. Toast is my usual, and I switch it up between butter and peanut butter. Just depends on how I'm feeling but if I didn't have a job I'd pig out on breakfast! I looooove breakfast foods!
