I have DH home for the full day today (done with his internships and starts back to school next week) and feel productive.
We hung the paper lanterns in the nursery above the crib, which he'd been putting off, I did an ass-ton of laundry, and this afternoon am finally using the prenatal massage gift cert. I got for Mother's Day.
Dropping off prints to 2 local clients (bc I am cheap and don't want to mail them), taking some forms to DS's preschool, and then tonight are our maternity pics.
I just love knocking things off the ol' to-do list, and it's amazing to have DH home to watch DS while I run errands. Only lame thing today is that one of us has to be home at all times because I've got a package coming that has to be signed for.
Go ahead, tell us what you're up to. Sometimes you need to feel productive (I say as I sit here with my feet up and Bump while stalking UPS tracking).
Re: What are you up to today?
Nothing. I'm at work but have lost all motivation. Kudos to those ahead of me still working.
I may sneak out of here early but if last night was any indictation of tonight, I'm going to be just as bored. I hate the lower activity level my DR put me on. BORING!

Good for you! I am feeling incredibly freaked out and anxious with these early labor mamas. I think the nesting thing is kicking in because I'm about to lose it. This post actually totally helps me, because I need to list this for myself. I'm a teacher, and I go back to school in one week, and I am SO not finished with my to-do list. Who knows? Maybe it'll help others. Here's what I'm working on:
*Laundry. Doing it all today (already in progress--yay me.)
*Drop off pre-admission form to hospital (we haven't had our tour yet, and like I said, I'm starting to panic.)
*STD form to OBGYN office (forgot to take with me at my last appt.)
*Install car seat base
*Finish packing hospital bags (these are mainly finished, just need a few clothing items)
*Order the remaining items on my Target registry
*Finish painting trim around doors (WHY, oh why did I decide this is the time for this project???)
*Start (yes, I said START) organizing plans for my long-term sub
Bottom line: Please, Dear God, don't let this baby be early.
I'm working today, but leaving early for an elective ultrasound with DH. It'll be our last (unless a problem comes up) peek at our little guy.
DH is at home, though, while our kitchen flooring is cleaned, regrouted, and sealed! He's installing new door hardware for me and a new light fixture in the upstairs hallway.

Going to MH's softball game, picking up my prenatal refill (and maybe stopping at the bulk candy store next door to pick up a few goodies), then going home to relax, after cleaning the bathroom. I'm a hoot, I know...

Working - and I'm being very productive - can't you tell?? My whole team is traveling this week without me ( I didn't want to fly from WI to CA at 35 weeks), so it's very quiet around the office.
But the good thing is that I'll be heading home at a decent time all week and may actually have enough energy to get things done at home!

Seriously. How did the early Sept EDD moms do it? I think all their stories are making me feel lazy. At least I'm going to blame them.

While Bumping I am making my store list. I'm going to brave it after my daughter wakes from her nap. I have a package I need to track but it didn't ship till yesterday so I'm thinking a Friday delivery for sure, I'm not gonna sweat it too much (its the remainder of my NB stash! yay!) I also need to make the list out for school shopping because I am taking my 5yr old out this weekend to school clothes/supplies shop. FUN!
Other than that I'm going to keep taking it easy and do some organizing in the house today. I noticed the PNP has some items in it that do NOT belong there. (like DH's laptop and a Thor hammer (shakes head)).

Working now (lunch break currently), then off early to my 36 week check-up. I am scared to death that I will catch the epidemic going around the board.
Tonight will be a little more work and hopefully a load of laundry or two.

Hysteroscopy #10 - scar tissue grew back reblocking my right tube
#11 or IVF with scarring still inside?

I may be the only teacher who has not made any plans for my ML. I have no desire to make them either. So, instead I am working on preparing materials for the beginning of the school year. I made a lot of things yesterday, so I am being lazy about it today. I am thinking a nap might be necessary! Trying to enjoy these last few days of summer before it is off to work I go on Monday!
2.0 is on the way! EDD: 2/24/15
I have been a little absent from the bump lately, so I am trying to get caught up...
working...
I get to leave work early today for my Dr.'s appt.
tonight is our last child birthing class....
My mother in law is in town, so we will probably grab some supper with her!
The weather is beautiful here in the state of TN... I just want to be outside SO SO bad!!!!!
I'm working acting busy so they don't give me any actual work to do. The laziness and no energy from 1st trimester is officially back.
I had planned on just watching trashy tv all night but now, due to the epidemic, I will be packing my hopsital bag.
Doing a little work here and there. Not many people in the office today. Deciding if I want to walk to my car during lunch to go take a long lunch to shop for some comfy lounge pants for the hospital or if its too much of an effort and just go get a salad from inside my building.
Just sent DH an email list of everything he needs to get done for me this weekend because so many people are going early, and I was 2 weeks early last time. Need to set up and wash the rock n play stuff, detail car and switch DS's carseat from middle to passenger side and put the carseat base behind the driver. Get bag set out so I can start throwing stuff in there.
I've been busy and I'm just getting started.
I am at work just not doing a whole lot of work. I am really tired, didn't get a whole heck of a lot of sleep last night. The little guy yesterday almost put me in L&D so I might be part of the epidemic.
My to do list for tonight is:
Supper @ MILs
Finish packing my bag (and DH's)
continue with the massive amounts of laundry
ugh.
I cooked two of my freezer meals this morning, did a load of laundry, and am now relaxing while DS naps.
When he wakes up I figure we should go outside and play in his kiddie pool while the weather is nice.
A pretty low-key Wednesday.
I'm not up to much of anything.
I had a meeting this morning with an organization I'm going to start volunteering with. When I had an original meeting in the beginning of June, it seemed like I'd have forever to help out before the baby came... but by the time they could follow up with a second meeting it was early August and now they are doing a background check and I'm three weeks out... Unfortunate timing, really.
I'm going to do some work today which will involve creating some sort of lesson combining dinosaurs and teaching young children emotion words.
And when DH gets home we're going to go to Great Clips and get cheap haircuts because I'm classy like that.
I need a Farking haircut so bad it ridiculous.....i may have to hit up fantastic sams for a haircut and eyebrow wax sooooon.
Where to start laundry, dishes, running errands, and pulling nails our of the floor from the old carpet that was there previously. After feeling productive enough for one day, I am treating myself to some bump time before DH gets home!
I'm unpacking our assload of stuff because the movers just dropped it off this weekend. One the one hand, I hated living out of a suitcase so its awesome to get our stuff back. One the other hand, SPD is kicking my ass & carrying boxes/clothes/whatever up the stairs & digging in boxes is so painful I want to leave it until after delivery.
I'm also picking up my MIL from the airport later. She's staying until the end of Sept. I've never been more excited to see her lol.
