1. How are you? Can't complain : ) Still dealing with lots of morning sickness, but it's worth it.
2. Weekend highlight / lowlight? We had our first ultrasound on Friday! It was so amazing - he or she was measuring right on track and had a nice strong heartbeat. Lowlight - just feeling sick all of the time.
3. What are you looking forward to this week? We have a busy weekend of Christmas festivities. I love this time of year!
4. What's for dinner tonight? BBQ sandwiches, "Crash" potatoes and green beans.
1. Doing well. Busy week but holding it together so far.
2. Highlight: We too Jocelyn on a "date" to Palomino then the Yuletide Celebration. She LOVED all the singing and dancing!
Lowlight: Didn't get any work done - not that I'd rather be working, but I've been falling behind on some things
3. Tomorrow evening we are going to the "Totally Bazaar" at City Market. My husband and I have decided to do all of our Christmas shopping for each other there in order to keep it local. Local food and drink too!
4. I'm working a 24hr shift at the hospital, so I grabbed a sub from Jersey Mike's. A "reward" for having to work!
1. How are you? Good. Getting tired; bout to head upstairs and watch TV :-)
2. Weekend highlight / lowlight? Highlight - watched my niece on Saturday. We had fun building a gingerbread house and playing with the dogs. Lowlight - nothing
3. What are you looking forward to this week? Christmas with my dad's side of the family. I love this get together. We see family that live in Ohio that we only see once (maybe twice) a year.
4. What's for dinner tonight? We had a friend over tonight for dinner. I made shake n bake chicken, green beans, brown n serve rolls, and Julienne potatoes. For dessert I made pumpkin whoopie pies and snickerdoodles.

Yum, you guys are making me hungry!! blueturkey, what are "crash" potatoes? You might need to share that recipe. :-)
1. How are you? - Doing better. Still not 100%, but getting there.2. Weekend highlight / lowlight? - The weekend was mostly a lowlight due to me feeling like death warmed over most of the time. Eli also had that stomach bug that's been going around. Needless to say, we didn't do much.3. What are you looking forward to this week? - Getting a fence installed in our backyard so the dogs can go out whenever they want.
4. What's for dinner tonight? - Pizza! We were at a family gathering baking peppernuts - tiny, spicy little cookies.
1. How are you? Tired, we're transitioning from the swaddle and Rnp this week
I do not envy you right now. We swaddled Eli until 6 months because he slept so well with it. I hated giving it up. Good luck! I hope your little guy does all right with all the big changes!
1. How are you?- we are doing great! A little bit tired because DS isn't wanting to go to be at night, but nothing to bad.
2. Weekend highlight/ lowlight- highlight- finished pretty much all my christmas shopping! There wasn't really a lowlight.
3. What are you looking forward to this week? It's my last full week at home with DS before I have to go back to work, so I'm looking forward to lots of cuddle time! We also have two family christmas parties this weekend!
4. What's for dinner tonight? I'm thinking ham...

Ugh! I'm waiting for the day for that to happen for us! I'm still waiting on approval from our HOA. Our dogs are going crazy!
I do not envy you right now. We swaddled Eli until 6 months because he slept so well with it. I hated giving it up. Good luck! I hope your little guy does all right with all the big changes!
HOAs are such a pain! We had to fight with them for a while over ours too. Hope you get approval soon!
