Third, GET WELL wishes to the sick little ones (and adults)! 

Finally, T&Ps, hugs to all those who need them.

Do you have any special plans for the weekend?  Or are you just looking forward to a quiet weekend to relax?  

@Chiwifey, hope you have  a fun birthday party for Chibaby!

QOTW: Anyone watching the World Series? Anybody cares?

Re: Happy Friday! Plans for the weekend?

  • We've had a super busy, tiring and stressful week. M had HFM the week before, and well, DH ended up getting it last weekend while we were at my ILs. Then ILs came out this week and was here for dinner last night.  Anyway, I'm looking forward to a quiet weekend at home! DH has a presentation on Monday so he'll be busy working on that all weekend.  I'm hoping it'll be sunny and a little warmer this weekend so I can take M out for walks.  It's cloudy/overcast here today and it won't even hit 50F... brrrr! I don't like cold weather. :(

    QOTW: Since the Red Sox is in the World Series, of course we have to care. The last 2 nights we had the game on mute, just so that we can follow the scores.

  • We are big Red Sox fans so we are definitely watching the WS!

    Quiet weekend around here - no real plans other than going to watch one of my friends field hockey games tomorrow - she's the coach!

    I also took Monday off -so long weekend for me. Sadly the main goal of the day will be to clean my house from top to bottom! So lame, but I'm looking forward to not having to work.

    Tonight will be getting ready for tomorrow's halloween party - baking and finishing our costumes.

    Tomorrow is the big beta day!  I'll probably POAS before I go though, so I'm prepared.  Then we'll head out of state for my brother's Halloween Party.  It will be fun to hang out with my family and stuff my face with lots of good food.

    QOTW:  I know who is in the World Series, but that's as far as I go.  Don't really care...

  • I wondered how your weekend went pb. I'm sorry you all got hfm. We have a few social events to say bye to friends here. And we need to pack!!!!! And of course I have my RE appointments. We also have a friend who is on full bed rest at 27weeks with twins so we are going to go shop for some items for her. QOTW: no, I'm not a baseball fan. DH is but his fave teams are out. I think he checks in on the score but I haven't noticed full games being on in my living room.
  • We are going to get pumpkins tomorrow, although I think I'm too pregnant and irritable to carve them. Then we have our neighborhood trick or treat. DH judges the costume contest.

    Not much else for plans except to watch the packers play Sunday night and see if I go into labor.
    IVF, acupuncture, meditation and a miracle.

    Well, we closed on our new house today! So that's exciting. We picked paint colors and mh and his parents will spend the weekend painting while I stay at home with E and pack. That's about it.

  • Thanks for the welcome!

    Good luck ccam!

    I was invited to a Halloween party tomorrow night, but LO seems like she's not feeling well so if this continues, I won't go. Otherwise, we always watch college football on Saturdays and lounge around the house. I'm sure my parents and/or sister will come over to visit since it's been a few days :)

    QOTW: I'm a Yankees fan and my husband is a Cubs fan so both our teams are out. If I had to choose, I'd root for the cardinals ;)
  • just hanging around the house for us! my brother and his wife might come for a visit tomorrow to see the kids, and then other than that it's just getting some projects done and decorating the house a little for fall :) yes yes i'm a tad late! after walking in home goods yesterday i figure i should screw it and start decorating for xmas lol.

    babies are recovering from their first cold and are definitely on the mend, but trying to keep a low key weekend to keep up the healing process.

    As for the WS we are big boston fans so we're rooting for the sox!

  • No big plans here. DH is out of town on a company fishing trip so it's just me and H all weekend.

    No world series here. DH is not a sports person and I'm just a football nut.

    What ended up happening with your current house sale?

    Thank for asking @kaf7. We FINALLY got him to sign the termination papers and got the house back on the market. We reimbursed his earnest money, and our awesome real estate agent gave him the rest of the money to keep us out of litigation. If we went to court, we wouldn't be able to put the house back on the market until all proceedings were complete. So were just praying we can sell the house soon, otherwise we will rent it.
