1. Still hanging in there. However, I have a toothache that won't go away and it's giving me a headache.

2. Highlight- DH and his dad worked on building our new deck. His mom and I helped a little. It's not done, but the rest Dh and I can finish. Lowlight- the usual.

3. I'm supposed to be working on a temporary project for my former employer, but that is delayed, so I'm planning to refinish an old hutch we got from Dh's parents.

4. I have always been afraid someone would break into the house and steal our stuff and hurt us.

1. how are you feeling? 8 days pp, feeling pretty good.

2. weekend highlight? getting caroline's newborn pics taken on saturday. i got to see a preview already and i can't wait to get the cd of pics lowlight? audrey has been going to the sitter during the week until i feel like i can take on both kids alone. i'm not sure when that will be.....she is definitely acting out. she refuses to listen to me and repeatedly says no. normally i would give time outs or have her go to her room, but she just tells me no and due to the c/s it's not at all possible for me to pick her up. so i feel like she kinda has me. i'll gladly take any suggestions here!

3. what are you looking forward to this week? healing more and feeling even more like myself

4. something you were afraid of when you were younger that you are still afraid of? i've always been a bit afraid of being home alone at night. all noises make me paranoid and my mind starts replaying scenarios from law and order.

1. how are you feeling? - 27 weeks and feeling great, except for the occasional bout of acid reflux.2. weekend highlight? lowlight? - We had a great weekend! We got home from a week in GA visiting my parents on Friday, put together the crib on Saturday and Sunday after church we went to my brother in-law's to watch football. 3. what are you looking forward to this week? - Nothing too exciting planned, but going to a wedding this weekend and I'm looking forward to seeing lots of friends from college. 4. something you were afraid of when you were younger that you are still afraid of? - This is a tough one. I feel like the things that I used to be scared of don't really bother me as much anymore (bugs, heights, etc.), but they have been replaced with new fears that come with growing up. My biggest fear lately is how I would be able to support myself financially if something were to happen to my husband. My degree is not exactly a bread-winner nor in great demand.

RAR730 · September 2011

1. how are you feeling? 5 weeks and I woke up with one of the wonderful pregnancy headaches. Ugh. I want to go crawl back into bed. 2. weekend highlight? lowlight? Lowlight- DH got his wisdom teeth pulled Friday so he spent most of the weekend on the couch or in bed drugged up. And because of that we didnt do anything so we dont really have any weekend highlight. 3. what are you looking forward to this week? Hopefully making it through the week without m/s starting. 4. something you were afraid of when you were younger that you are still afraid of? Butterflies. I know, I'm weird

raches · September 2011

1. how are you feeling? 23w3d pregnant and feeling good

2. weekend highlight? Busy working on our house - almost everything is unpacked and setup, minus hanging pictures on the walls. lowlight? No time to myself - between my in-laws and my parents, there were people at our house all weekend.

3. what are you looking forward to this week? Things returning to normal...and getting my kitchen drain fixed. It's been clogged since we moved it and the plumber is coming today.

4. something you were afraid of when you were younger that you are still afraid of? Morbid, but losing someone close to me.

1. 37 weeks, 6 days pg and feeling good. Tired, but just fine. I can't believe it's Monday again! My new supervisor who's taking over my old duties because of my promotion starts today, and I could have anywhere between 1 day and 3 weeks max to train her. Time is not on our side so I'm hoping to be as effective as I can be in our short time together.

2. High - pedi on Saturday. Low - it was a cruddy sports weekend. All my teams lost, including my Fantasy team (losing big time to my 12 year-old cousin), and I feel like I made more of a mess at our house than I had before the weekend. I suck at organizing things.

3. Bunco on Wednesday night! Haha!

4. Home invasion during the night. Yep, definitely that.

msBlackandGold · September 2011

1. Feeling UBER hungry. I had a difficult morning, so didn't have time to eat before work.

2. Highlight: DH had a work event at our house so we had to clean. Two things I've been trying to get him to do, clean the back yard, and take down this ugly black DVD holder in the living room FINALY got done!

Lowlight: DH told his parents that we didn't want house guests for the first weeks pp, since I will be LEARNING to BF, so covering will be more difficult and I'm not incredibly comfortable with the idea of anyone being able to walk in on me at any time. Found out that they want "unrestricted" access with no "rules or regulations" to THEIR granddaughter. Since DH said that they wouldn't get that, they decided they won't come at all, even though DH has an uncle 2 min away where they could stay (DH had already OK'd it with his uncle). It's been really upsetting that they won't be here to support THEIR son.

3. WEDNESDAY the 100 day countdown begins!

4. I'm not "afraid" of bugs...I just don't like them AT ALL! Especially if they make their way in my house.

J9melissa · September 2011

1. how are you feeling? 14w6d pp Feeling ok. Slight headache.

3. what are you looking forward to this week? My birthday on Friday!

4. something you were afraid of when you were younger that you are still afraid of? Nothing.

jgoo · September 2011

1. How are you feeling?
-Irritated & sweaty. AF is here & kicking my booty.

2. Weekend highlight?
Had some friends over Saturday night. They're moving soon so it was nice to spend some time with them.
Lowlight?
Not cleaning. While it was nice to avoid at the time, I now have a super messy house that I don't have adequate time to clean while taking care of the little ones.

3. What are you looking forward to this week?
I'm having a little 10 year reunion with some girls from high school this weekend!

4. Something you were afraid of when you were younger that you are still afraid of?
Someone breaking into my house & killing me. I swear I watched too much Unsolved Mysteries & Rescue 911 when I was young. Now it's just an irrational fear that won't go away.

unverfkm · September 2011

I'm just joining this bored and thought I'd check in....

1. 11 w - Feeling a little tired, but m/s is gone!

2. Highlight - We got most of our funiture moved to the new house. Lowlight - The pressure relief valve on our water heater at our new house went bad so we weren't able to finish the move. ( I draw the line at cold showers! )

3. I'm looking forward to telling my boss and co-workers about the pregnancy.

4. I'm still afraid of being stuck in a small tunnel. I'm fine with small spaces but not if I can't turn around in them.

marleysmom · September 2011

1. Not bad. Connor starting pulling up over the weekend - he seems way too young to be doing that! It's a little sad...

2. Highlight: We had some friends and their kids over on Saturday to celebrate the beginning of the college football season. Everyone had a good time. We also went to the Rhythm Discovery Center and it was awesome!

Lowlight: My husband's grandfather has been actively dying for the past several days and it's been tough.

3. Winning the first fantasy football match-up of the season

4. Ditto on someone breaking into my house and robbing/hurting us. I'm also afraid of not being able to breathe.

brithil · September 2011

1. how are you feeling? tired & cruddy....I keep hoping this is a good sign but I'm not holding my breath

2. weekend highlight? lowlight? High-date night with DH Low-working & housecleaning

3. what are you looking forward to this week? DH is going to buy a new Harley tomorrow so I'll be enjoying some rides this week.

4. something you were afraid of when you were younger that you are still afraid of? I have to agree with the rest of you on a break-in/attack at night. However, after being home alone every 3rd night for 2 & 1/2 years my fear has really diminished.

thethomps · September 2011

Coming in WAY late...is it really Wednesday already?

1. My parents left to go back to Arizona today, so I'm pretty sad about that. It was great having them here for the summer and I loved that they got to spend so much time with DD.

2. Highlight: We had DD's first birthday party a little early since my parents and sister were in town. It was a lot of fun. Also saw more family on Saturday for my cousin's wedding reception, which was great. Lowlight: DH had a combo of a cold and allergies and the amount of coughing and nose sniffing made me gag.

3. Zumba class tomorrow and probably going to drown my sorrows with a friend over pumpkin spice lattes.

4. This is so weird, but I cannot sleep in a room where the closet door is open. That scene in Poltergeist where the little girl gets sucked into the closet freaked me out when I was young and to this day I have to close the closet door before going to sleep.
