How about you? What's on your mind?
Re: 10 Things Tuesday
2. The thought of working after baby comes makes me so emotional.... Already.
3. I have way too much Christmas shopping left to do.
4. My MIL already said we needed to cook Christmas dinner at out house (that gives us 2 + weeks to paint, move, and decorate!?!)
5. I want to throat punch my mortgage loan officer.
6. I should really be working right now not doing this....
7. Living with parents waiting to close on out house is HARD!
8. Paying for no house hold expenses has been amazing.
9. I am in love with leggings and cute dresses right now
10. 8 days until I know if I'm having a baby boy or a baby girl
2. I got the cold from DD. She slept like crap the past two nights...and she wants nothing to do with daddy in the night.
3. We half way decorated for Christmas. We need to get more stuff out of our storage unit and I refuse to go there alone. I'm always irrationally worried that some creeper could pull me into their unit and rape/murder me.
4. Yesterday my mother in law dropped off two giant tubs of Christmas stuff she doesn't want anymore. No, thank you but I do not want all your ugly, faded crap from the eighties. I needed to go to the goodwill anyway.
5. DD learned to say "ho, ho, ho" when she sees Santa. She's 13 months old and it's the cutest thing ever.
6. November is over and DH still has not shaved.
7. I've hardly done any Christmas shopping.
8. My dad and my MIL are tied for most difficult to shop for.
9. I'm already planning on being completely unproductive today. I'm hoping DD and I both get at least once good nap.
10. I need panera for lunch.
Nora - 10.26.12
Henry - 5.9.14
2. I'm also hoping they'll be able to tell me whether my placenta has moved. I haven't felt a flutter or anything yet and while I know this is to be expected with and anterior placenta, it still bums me out.
3. I put out 90% of our Christmas stuff a few weeks ago. The other 10% still looks like it exploded in a big heap on my dining room table. I really should get on that....
4. I want a donut.
5. And Starbucks
6. I need to do some graphic designing for a charity I'm on the board of today...and I really don't want to. I've been avoiding it for two weeks.
7. I really need to start on my Christmas shopping
8. I'm buying my hubby a bike, and he's going to be SO excited!
9. I told my office I had a doctors appointment on Friday, so I couldn't make it to the holiday party. In reality...I just don't want to go. I'm the youngest Realtor in my office by like 15years except for someone's daughter and she's beyond socially awkward. I don't have much in common with anyone there.
10. I'm going shopping tomorrow with my girlfriend who just had twins 6 weeks ago. Haven't seen them yet. I'm really excited!!
2. I had to cancel DD's flu shot for the 2nd time due to a nasty cold
3. Poor girl sounds like a seal when she coughs
4. Our a/s is 2 weeks from today!
5. We are team green so it will be all about seeing squirmy baby and hopefully getting some good pics to share over the holidays
6. I can't believe that we are almost half way baked!
7. At least the Olympics will provide some entertainment in the boring post-holiday months
8. We got our tree on Sunday and decorated it last night
9. DD broke 2 ornaments and our dog broke a third with her crazy tail
10. I am having so much fun buying DD's presents this years. I scored a bunch of tutus today on zulily and am excited that I don't have to make them any more!
little chkn born 06/30/11
baby chkn born 04/22/14

2. I'm irrationally afraid that by doing #1 above, I messed up my "pregnancy karma" and now something will happen to the baby
3. I have to do my glucose testing on Thursday, and I'm afraid I will throw up the drink.
4. I had a horrible miscarriage nightmare two nights ago. It was so real, I wasn't sure if it had happened or not when I woke up.
5. Reading through my list so far, I need to chill the f*ck out about this pregnancy. I'm such a worrywart.
6. I have gained 6 lbs so far, but it feels like 40. None of my clothes fit and I'm in maternity clothes exclusively.
7. I am excited to get our tree this weekend! DH put up the outside lights already, but we still need to decorate the inside!
8. I can't wait to feel the baby move--I wish I could feel it early like lots of the girls here.
9. I'm baking Christmas cookies today!
10. My dog has been an asshole lately. He only wants to snuggle with DH and not me.
2. I am so sad that I just about cried. But I don't think that it's the hormones, I think I am just missing my family around the holidays.
3. This also means my parents won't actually see me in a pregnant state as I don't think they have plans to visit again before baby arrives.
4. My boss has changed my schedule on the fly like 3 times this week for shifts I am working THIS week.
5. Growing tired of the winter storms and the asshole drivers on the roads who don't slow down.
6. Not liking that I have the majority of late shifts out of 5 managers. I live the furthest away, am pregnant, and am always driving in the dark.
7. My house is a disaster.
8. Good thing I have a cleaning service coming on Thursday to do a thorough clean before the party this weekend.
9. I have never used a cleaning service before and wanted to see what it was like.
10. I don't want to go to work today. I wish I could call in a snow day, but that NEVER happens.

2. Bought our nursery furniture yesterday - seems early, but we got the crib and matching dresser from BRUS for $300!
3. My mom has accused me of not wanting the best for my baby because I didn't buy an expensive set from Pottery Barn.
4. I feel like I never see my husband during the week - he goes to work early and is asleep when I get home from work.
5. I'm running/walking a half marathon on Sunday
6. I'm almost done with my Christmas shopping
7. I'm going to Texas in a week to meet up with sister and help her drive back to California for the holidays - excited for a girls trip
8. I'm still riding my horse two days/week and it makes me sad to think I will probably have to stop riding soon =(
9. I don't look pregnant yet just chubby, but I have a client at work who feels the need to comment on my changing body weekly as if I didn't own a mirror
10. I never sleep through the night anymore - and I need a nap after this!
1. I haven't done any Christmas shopping.
2. My house is 90% decorated for Christmas. The remaining decorations are sitting in a box, and I have zero motivation to put them up.
3. This is the latest DH and I have ever gone without putting up the tree. Usually we have it all set up and ready the weekend after Thanksgiving. And now we may not have time to get it until the weekend after next!
4. DH and I just dropped a bundle getting a new washer/dryer. While I get that it will be worth it and save us a ton of money in the long run, I hate taking money out of our savings account.
5. Not to mention, my ILs wanted to buy the washer/dryer as a gift "for the baby". They told us they would take care of EVERYTHING, and we wouldn't have to worry about a thing. They paid for half...and not for installation. While I know that is still generous, this bs is just so typical of them. Now DH and I are $800 out of pocket, and I'm annoyed. I can't STAND my in-laws.
6. The plumber who was supposed to be here at 1:30 to install said washer/dryer has still yet to arrive. It's 3:30 and I took a half day from work to sit here and wait.
7. Our A/S is a week from today! DH and I have decided to find out what we are having, but we may keep it our little secret until the end.
8. We finally announced on FB on Thanksgiving. It was cute, and I'm glad this pregnancy is finally public.
9. I still don't look pregnant. Everyone says "you're not even showing" but I feel like a house. This LO is still chilling right below my belly button, giving me a sweet "pooch" effect. Thank goodness for scarves and loose sweaters.
10. The plumber just arrived. Hopefully we can get this over with quickly!
2. I switched from iphone to samsung galaxy. Not sure I like it yet.
3. My #1 is really long. Sorry.
4. My MIL came to visit and brought me groceries. LOVE
5. A coworker gave me a brand new Graco car seat for free. LOVE
6. I've been freaking out lately wanting to see baby sooo bad. My FIRST ultrasound isn't until next week so between hearing the heart beat at 13 weeks and waiting until 17 1/2 weeks for u/s its hard!
7. I wish I had an excuse not to go to bootcamp tonight.
8. Work sucks lately.
9. DH asked me to make him Rice Krispies yesterday to take out of town with him (unusual request for him) but then he forgot them! I'm worried I won't be able to resist eating some now.
10. I'm wearing my favourite socks.
Vote on Baby Andrew Names
I Don't Blog, I Keek
2. I have not announced on FB, and don't think i'm going to.
3. I am finding out the gender next tuesday
4. It's my turn to have my two dds this week, and its always very sad when the leave on Friday
5. My BF comes home in February and i'm nervous
6. ex DH and I have court a week from Friday and he's going to be shocked that i'm asking for child support and then i can get off assistance.
7. I'm still not sure about names. My 7 year old like Phinnus (so she can nickname him ferb)
8. I can't wait for December to be over
9. I can't wait for the day to afford a puppy! (german shepherd please!)
10. I drink too much coffee.
2. On one hand, hearing him say words in his "this is totally new to me" way is the cutest ever. On the other hand, I like his nonsense babbles and am pretty sure I'll miss them even more than I think I will when he turns into Chatty Toddler.
3. Sometimes I wonder if it's possible to have postpartum depression before you're anywhere near having the baby. My son is a peach, but some days I'm not sure how on earth I'll deal with two kids.
4. I can kind of make good pancakes now. The last batch I made, half of them were fluffy and half of them were flat and chewy.
5. I think I had a 24-hour germ yesterday, possibly from Chinese food.
6. My husband ate my leftover Chinese food for lunch today even though he's the one who suggested I was feeling sick from my Chinese food.
7. If he gets sick too, I'm going to think he's pretty silly, that's for sure.
8. There's an advent thing at church this Sunday, and my mom gets to attend with me. I'm really looking forward to it.
9. My sister and her husband are getting a puppy later this week. I'm happy for her, and at the same time shaking my head a little inside because she's got money issues and she always seems to focus on getting new and different stuff instead of sorting her finances. I told her if she wanted advice to tell me and I would hook her up, but until then it's going to be sympathy only. I know how much it sucks to get unwanted advice. So far, she seems to only want sympathy when she's freaking out about being broke.
10. She's taking my son for a sleepover the day (and night and following day) of the anatomy scan. I'm super thankful she's watching him for the scan so my husband can be there with me, and am trying not to be nervous about the sleepover with a new puppy. (I find journal articles for people as a big part of my job, and somebody requested a bunch about animal attacks recently--big cats, and pet dogs.)
