Re: 10 Things Tuesday
1. It's DH and I's 8th anniversary.
2. DH sent me the biggest bouquet of flowers I've ever seen! I love him!
3. I should find out in 1-2 weeks the results of my Maternity 21 testing - fingers crossed!
4. I can't wait to celebreate our anniversary on Friday - I obvioulsy can't drink, so I'm going to eat like a crazy person!
5. DH is catering an event for 450 people tomorrow. I'm purposely staying away from the cooking area, because that's NUTS!
6. DH is giving me the money from the proceeds of said catering event for the baby and maternity shopping. Yay for clothes that fit comfortably!
7. I'm not sure that I'll be able to stay awake for dinner AND a movie on Friday. I'll feel a little bad, but I really just want some sleep!
8. I dont' really care who wins the World Series, I just want it to go 7 games.
9. I'm such a planner and so ready to start getting the nursery ready. However, I know that's crazy talk and it's way too early.
10. I'll be having 2 lunches today, since it's 10:30 and I've already eaten the one I brought.
1. I'm beginning to feel like I'm the only person that's NOT planning on "announcing" on FB.
2. All I do all day is eat. A.L.L. D.A.Y.
3. My chicken and dumplings turned out AMAZING lastnight.
4. I can't wait to go home and eat said chicken and dumplings.
5. I also can't wait to go home and cuddle with my dogs and watch The Voice.
6. Basically, I just hate being at work.
7. Since I hate being at work, I love being on TB all day.
8. Currently snacking on Chix Mix: BOLD Party Blend (is there any other kind?!)
9. Nervous for my NT scan in a week.
10. Also nervous/not excited to fly across the country next week. Hoping I feel ok!!
2. Our HVAC bit the dust and its 40 degrees at night, who needs an extra $4000?
3. Still haven't told anyone but my mom and good friend, I'll be 13 weeks on Thursday. I hate this part!
4. The good floodgates have officially opened, oiy!
5. Props to all the girls rocking the skeleton/pumpkin/turkey shirts, there's no way in hell I could pull that off...
6. Watching Bow Wow on Bethenny right now, damn son he is grown now! Milk did the body good.
7. Go figure he's talking about his daughter and her terrible twos, it's so precious.
8. I wake up every morning dreaming of what's for dinner. Oh the possibilities
9. I have a bad dream almost every single night and its terrible! I wake up stress out and relieved at the same time...wah.
10. I don't understand why so much of maternity clothing is covered in stripes. I can hang like one article of striped clothing, the rest make me look like I'm the width of a football field
1) my m/s came back last night and made me vom. I was not happy.
2) my car got broken into overnight. I was not happy.
3) nothing was stolen, but I feel violated. they left a total mess and broke my glove box.
4) I have a meeting with a police officer tonight about it.
5) i'm meeting an old friend after work today, who I haven't seen in years.
6) i'm feeling pretty good right now, but i'm reluctant to get optimistic.
7) hopefully we'll be completing on the house we're buying this week.
8) I've printed off the notice letter for my landlord!
9) My dad just called to tell me that my mum's death in service money has come through and he's transferring my share into my account today. This is going straight on our house deposit, so my bank balance will look healthy for about a week.

3. My dogs are currently wrestling and being really loud but it's hilarious.
4. We got a stroller and and car seat from a friend who just had a baby and it is so exciting!
5. My best friend is coming over tonight and we are going to have a little movie marathon since my DH is teaching tonight.
6. I love halloween candy.
7. Everyone and their mother tells me I have a baby bump. And even though it might be bloat, it still makes me smile.
8. My DH called me during his planning period to see how I was feeling and if I needed him to get me anything. I love that man.
9. There is a tree outside my house that has the prettiest leaves on it.
10. I get to see my baby today!!!!!!!!!!!
2. My son loves to take all the books off the shelf. Mostly I don't care about having a neat and organized space, but I like my books to be alphabetized by author.
3. Alphabetizing and reshelving our books is something DH and I like to do together. That is how exciting of a person I am.
4. DH made a batch of chili. I can't decide if I should have it for lunch and smell like a waterbuffalo later today, or if I should think of something else for lunch.
5. It's practically lunchtime already. crap crap crap crap. Deciding what food to have at meals is not my favorite.
6. My jeans are starting to struggle to fit over my belly. I'm still not sure how much of my shape is baby and how much is just chub moving around.
7. I minored in philosophy in college. It messed me up approximately like drugs mess some people up. I'm mostly ok again. Thinking too much can be really bad for you.
8. I started taking my first MOOC, about ancient Greece. One of the randomest things I've learned so far is that my sense of rhythm is not good enough to be a rower on a trireme, even if they had women rowers.
9. DH really likes teaching me math and biology. I really like it, but some of the math makes my brain hurt a little.
10. Two of my cousins who are sisters are also pregnant right now, and due in March and April. We're not very close so my reaction is a cross between unfair internal grumbles that they get to be pregnant while my sister is dealing with infertility, and relief/hope that they'll take all the attention on my mom's side and people won't notice me much. (They and their other sister are my grandma's favorites. When I told Mom, she wanted to tell Grandma, and then Grandma's first response was "oh, these two are also pregnant!")
2. The video is 2 pumpkins with drawn on silly faces and each frame goes through the stages of, "First comes Love", "Then comes Marriage", "Then Comes...", at this point we drop a baby pumpkin (wrapped in clothe like a Stork would) to the soundtrack of a screaming baby.
3. The short video idea sounded silly and cute in my head.......we'll see how the actual final product turns out.
4.People keep making the dreaded "twins" comment. My maternal grandfather was an identical twin....so far that gene has skipped everyone else....
5. Tomorrow we hear the heartbeat.
6. I am praying for only ONE heartbeat.
7. I stubbornly wriggled my way into pre-pregnancy jeans and threw on a looser top to cover the muffin top.
8.I ate a lot for breakfast and still ate an early lunch.
9. Will be having FroYo for dinner. And what.
10. DH ordered diapers from diapers.com. He was really excited about our first baby purchase and really felt like he was scoring a deal....Until we saw how much they were going for at the store. I don't recommend diapers.com and I'm almost seriously considering clothe diapering now.
11. ten things tuesday kind of bores me.
2. My husband has been very touchy lately with my belly. He is either rubbing it, laying with his head on it, hugging it. Melts my heart.
3. My cousin is getting married Saturday - she is wearing camo and hot pink. Not kidding.
4. I have a networking event tonight and not a clue what to wear. It's in a super hip and trendy part of town - which I am neither right now.
5. My dog just crapped on the carpet again. wtf Libby?
6. I hate cleaning up dog shit.
7. My son was promoted to orange belt one stripe yesterday and this past weekend celebrated winning the season in his fall baseball league. So proud of this kid.
8. My son is with his dad this week and he called me last night just to chat. He never wants to talk on the phone...made my night.
9. My boobs hurt today pretty bad.
10. I cannot wait for Thanksgiving and all the delicious food food food!!
2. I'm still glowing from the amazingness that are my new bras.
3. I hate the people I work with.
4. Because of that, I'm counting down the days until maternity leave.
5. Belly sleeping is becoming less comfortable. I'm sleeping kind of half on my belly half on my side. That is going to be a very hard habit to break, even with my snoogle.
6. In one month, DH and I will be on our way to Houston, so we can hop skip and jump onto a cruise ship in Galveston.
7. Halloween is the day after tomorrow and I have no candy, and no pumpkins.
8. I'm meandering over to Cotton Babies after work to check out some cloth diapers. Wish me luck that I do not become instantly overwhelmed.
9. I also suck at making pancakes. Seriously. Even with an evenly heated electric griddle, total suckage.
10. I want broccoli cheddar soup from Panera. Right. Now.
2. The thing I was most sad about is this means I can't use the carpool lane anymore
3. Because my husband & I had a little "agreement" where he knew I used the carpool lane on occasion, and if I got a ticket, oh well. Cost of living & commuting.
4. But I'm pretty sure at $500~ a pop, a 2nd ticket would not go over too well.
5. I may start using it again when I have a car seat in the car. I'm pretty sure cops can't see if there's an actual baby in there or not.
6. That money could've bought a new dryer or most of a new dishwasher, which we need to get before baby is born.
7. Oh well, I'm sure everybody who has ever seen a solo driver fly by in the diamond lane while they're sitting in traffic is very happy to hear one of us got caught.
8. But seriously, you should try it sometime. I have been using the carpool lane nearly every day for 10 months and this is my first ticket! It's not even a moving violation so no points on your record.
9. My only advice is don't use it to pass slow drivers. Use it when there's an actual traffic backup. If I hadn't gotten greedy I wouldn't have gotten a ticket this morning.
10. But for that matter can be people stop treating the passing lane as their own private slow lane? In morning rush hour traffic when there are 50 people clusterf**ked behind you and 2 miles of open space in front of you? Get a clue!!
2. I am 12w3d and there is a "bump" which I think is adorable even though I know it's really bloat
3. I have my last riding session with my horse on Thursday until after the baby comes and that makes me sad
4. I just found out the title and release date of the third book in the All Souls Trilogy. I'm super excited that it's finally out, but really annoyed that I have to wait until July
5. I am obsessed with Orange is the New Black - really didn't think I would like it and not sure what made me watch it, but I'm hooked (as is DH......secretly of course)
6. I'm really psyched about this season of American Horror Story as I was sorely disappointed by season 2
7. I daydream about sending my kid to a boarding school in the UK so that he/she can become BFF with Prince George which will, in turn, lead to a fabulous friendship between myself and the Duchess.
8. My kid is going to be a priss - boy or girl. I just can't help it and even I find it obnoxious. I'm actually trying to learn about sports in case it decides to like them.
9. I couldn't care any less about sports - World Series, Superbowl, whatever cup it may be...I Just.Don't.Care.
10. This baby has given me a monster zit on my nose with smaller ones all over my forehead...I look like a teenage boy.
And @TheBeeCharmer you don't think this season is weird??? Don't get me wrong this is turning into my favorite season but sex with a minotaur is weird.
:-O
1. Saw my good friend today and told her. She was so excited!
2. She gave me maternity clothes
3. and preggie pops and organic lollipops from Trader Joes that are awesome and I'm now addicted.
4. I definitely have enough of a bump that DH and I notice but no one else will. I feel like it's higher up than I would have thought.
5. I find that I keep absent-mindedly touching and rubbing my stomach.
6. I can't wait to try my snoogle tonight.
7. DH finally broke down and turned on the heat. Thank G-d!
8. My pesto pasta from California Pizza Kitchen was highly disappointing. Now I need something else to eat.
9. I'm surprised at my productivity today.
10. Since I've actually lost weight from m/s, can I use that as an excuse to not go to the gym?
2. My dh is in the process of getting medboarded out of the military, and it looks like it might happen a lot sooner than expected... Cue panic and freak out!
3. I wish it were time to go visit my mom. I need one of those cry to your mom moments.
4. I also wish dd would still sleep with us, I could use her cuddles.
5. I really want some ice cream!!
6. My dh and I are goin on our first date night tomorrow since April! It's our 4 year mark
7. I can't figure out what to do though. Ugh. I don't wanna just do movies and dinner, but idk if I wanna go to Fenway and fight the crowd.
8. My belly popped a little which is exciting, but wayyyy earlier than with dd.
9. Can't wait til Thursday so dd and I can decorate Halloween cookies and she can go trick or treating for the first time, and cause I get to eat most her candy
10. Did I mention how amazing ice cream sounds right now?!!
:-&
