sparklingdiamond
member
1. I still can't sleep well because I can't get comfortable enough. :-(
2. I have my next monthly appt today.
3. I will have to schedule my glucose test for 28 weeks. It seems like most people are getting theirs done earlier, but my dr said they do them at 28 weeks.
4. Getting ready to buy a house is so stressful.
5. We are set to close on the 21st!
6. We have maternity pictures in a month.
7. I need to find something to wear, but can't figure it out.
8. I wish stores would put out their spring stuff already so I could find a cute dress to wear for them.
9. I can't believe it's already Feb!
10. And March will be such a busy month and then it'll be May before I know it!

Re: 10 Things Tuesday
2. I woke up and when I fell back asleep I had a sex dream about my college boyfriend. It was underwhelming. I was also pregnant in that dream, but I hadn't told him. His mom came in while we were half naked and told him. So weird.
3. I'm working on a list of everything we need to get done around the house before baby comes. It's long.
4. We have a valentines party today with my moms' club. I'm feeling lazy and antisocial so I need to snap out of it.
5. I also need to do some laundry so I have something to wear.
6. I need a good idea for a fun, inexpensive gift for my husband for valentines day.
7. My MIL does our taxes. I have everything ready for her and I'm anxious to get them done!
8. I hope we get a decent return.
9. We are planning on saving it to cover my mat leave.
10. Hopefully there is a little extra to splurge on baby stuff
Nora - 10.26.12
Henry - 5.9.14
3. Some less than desirable late pregnancy symptoms are starting to creep in.
4. Our church has been meeting in a temporary space while we build a new building. We move in just a few weeks. The new building is so nice!
5. People have donated enough money for us to get the big items we need for the nursery. Very excited to make it look nice! We have four babies due this spring!
6. I really miss liking coffee. I can't wait to love it again!
7. I am reading The Hiding Place by Corrie Ten Boom. Anytime I read a WWII novel I simply cannot fathom that human beings could treat other humans in such a manner.
8. Possible going home outfit for baby is supposed to arrive this week!
9. DH has to go to Chicago for work a couple of days this week. :-(
10. Trying to wrap my head around being a mommy of three!
1. I'm so sick of winter. We got 6 inches yesterday, are supposed to get another 6 tonight into tomorrow and then another storm this weekend. And no, I don't live in the tundra...
2. I'm so excited that the attic is almost finished which means we can move stuff up there and then start on the nursery.
3. I have a phone interview for a temp job today. We need the money but on the flip side, working full-time for the next 3 months does not sound appealing.
4. Dreading the glucose test next week.
5. I'm unimpressed with Gone Girl so far. I had high hopes but it's just not keeping my attention.
6. I need to get moving on our taxes so we can get our return. That's today's project.
7. Yesterday I had cabin fever because it was snowing, yet today I can actually get stuff done and I don't feel like getting off my couch.
8. I'm getting really sick of the hip and sciatic pain that is keeping me up most of the night.
9. Why does DH decide to start projects at 10:30 at night? Last night he was sawing and banging in the attic and I had to beg him to stop at 11:30.
10. We have no good food in our house for breakfast.
2. Summer has arrived here in FL, 83 today!
3. I too want the stores to put out their summer clothes, cause I need maternity tank tops, and prefer trying things on
4. Saw my belly move in ways I thought weren't possible, pretty sure it was a foot or hand.
5. I get excited for hosting dinner parties (one this Fri) but I always end up stressed.
6. Would really really love it if the damn lawn guys would just mow already. We have stinging nettles and my dog hates it, then ends up going in the house!
7. I have so many ideas for a nursery and no money. Well we have the money, I just use it for food I don't need.
8. Out of 11 pregnant friends.family members all but 3 are having boys. What's up with that?
9. Hoping I get a prenatal massage for Valentine's Day even though DH bought me maxi skirts that I needed, and told him that it counted as a V-Day gift.
10. Incredibly depressed that I have nothing from my Grandpa (who I lived with for the first 10 yrs of my life) to give to my DS. The one item I could have gotten was taken by a nasty relative...
1. I am so hungry...all the time.
2. Slept like crap last night, but was able to get to work 45 minutes early. Clocking in the extra time will help out later in the week when my visitors start to arrive for the baby shower
3. Having a good skin day...please last forever!
4. We got snow last night, and it is beautiful and makes me want to go for a cc ski. It also helps to keep our air quality at healthy levels. So, I like the snow, but now when the weatherman starts to talk about another big storm coming through on the days my visitors are commuting from AZ, SD, and CO...well, that makes me not like snow anymore!
5. The nursery is coming together. We still need to paint, but we have one of 2 cribs built and the changing table! $hit is getting real.
6. I miss my friends, and I really have been looking forward to seeing them this weekend.
7. My belly has been growing a ton, and I am quickly outgrowing my first round of maternity shirts. Cold air updrafts on my belly make me angry. Knowing there are twins in there makes me wonder what sort of tent-like options I should start to consider for the third trimester.
8. Yesterdays doc/ultrasound/OB appointment went very well. I am just so grateful for my two healthy girls, and I hope everything continues to go normally. Like my doc says..."Let's keep this as boring as possible."
9. I just have to say it...Juan Pablo looked like a jerk last night. Way to make a girl feel like crap on television, douche-bag.
10. When do those Oreo cookies with cookie dough filling come out, anyhow? I will have no excuse to be eating like that after I am pregnant, so this better happen soon. And while we are at it...why can't Mc Donalds always have Shamrock shakes? I am so excited for Shamrock shake season!
2. My kids are sick again and we are stuck at home. My oldest has a cold and I know as soon as he feels better the youngest is going to get it.
3. I am ready for spring but according to the groundhog six more weeks of winter.
4. In honor of my kids being sick at some point today we will watch a movie and drink hot chocolate.
5. I just let them talk me into building a fort as well.
6. I finally started a Pinterest idea board for the nursery. I don't love pink but I am thinking of doing gray, white, coral and splashes of hot pink.
7. I also need to win the lottery to do all the fun things I would like to do in the nursery. Darn you pottery barn kids!
8. I am excited to see what baby girl looks like. Both of my boys have my brown eyes but I would love if one of our kids had my husband's green eyes
9. I am starting to plan my 5 year olds birthday party and I can't believe he is going to be five!
10. I am seriously craving smash burger right now.
2. I finally feel like my cold is starting to clear. All that is left is a stuffy nose. And my DS seems well. I literally said a prayer this morning that we could all stay well.
3. I go see my new "vbac friendly" OB tomorrow. Yay! I'm excited.
4. I hired a doula. Of course, now I second guess myself somewhat, but I think it was a good choice. I liked her, but I just wonder if I should have interviewed more...
5. DH and I have a couple of big life decisions in front of us and are really having a hard time making up our mind. It is so hard to know what the right path to take is...
6. I sometimes feel like I have so much to do before this baby gets here, that I just feel overwhelmed. I can't even keep up with laundry.
7. I am feeling so huge already. I'm scared of the next 3 months.
8. In the same vein, I have no idea how I am going to continue to do my normal daily activities (work, dealing with a toddler, etc.) in another month or so. I'm already having issues.
9. My DH is normally a really involved father, but he is getting on my nerves about one thing - our sharing daycare pick up/drop off. I have been doing it all along which was fine. He shares child care responsibilities in other ways. But it is starting to get very physically difficult for me--especially given the constraints of my car--but DH is unwilling to take over. When I bring it up, his solution is either for me to take his vehicle (which is larger and I really don't like driving and have already had a minor accident in before) or for us to just pull him out of daycare and hire a nanny. The easiest thing to do is for DH to just get out of bed 15 minutes earlier and handle drop off...but nooo. The simplest solution is not the one that he wants to consider because it will mean a slight inconvenience to him. Mind you, an inconvenience I have been dealing with for months. SMH.
10. I am starting to get actually excited about vbacing this baby.

2. We're supposed to get more snow today and tomorrow.
3. I. Hate. Winter!
4. I think I need Chipotle for dinner tonight.
5. I'm excited for Pretty Little Liars tonight.
6. We finally painted the nursery this weekend.
7. While I love the color, it reminds me of Mountain Dew.
8. We also painted the dining room this weekend. I love the color in there, too.
9. As long as the weather cooperates this weekend, we're going to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and having dinner at a Melt.
10. I Really hope the weather cooperates.
2. MIL is getting on my damn nerves. I get multiple texts a day "Did you register for this? How much was that?" Woman, you know where I'm registered and you know my first/last name. Go look at the damn thing yourself.
3. It's going to snow, again.
4. I got all my work done in the first few hours of the day, so when it starts to snow, LO, myself, and our new car are going home.
5. LO likes to ball him/herself up in one corner of my ute. It hurts.
6. I poke at him to get him to move, and he kicks me back.
7. I'm tired.
8. I caught up on Parenthood last night. Love that show.
9. I'm dreading my glucose test tomorrow.
10. I'm being reimbursed $$$ from my insurance for paying OOP for my chiropractic! Yay!
2- I'm using the ice as excuse for dh to walk the dogs (don't want to slip and fall)
3- moving in less than six weeks the only thing I have packed up is my clothing that does not fit anymore
4- I am so excited for warmer weather. If I never see ice again it will be too soon
5- trying to figure out if making a sandwich is worth the effort to get off the couch
6- my good friend is getting married may 30 and I don't think I will be able to make it
7- but my best friends birthday is three days after I move and I will only be 20min drive instead of halfway across the country!!
8- dh gave the dogs some cheese last night and they are still little fart machines.
9- can you tell I hate ice/cold/winter?
10- decided sandwich is worth it but only because I remembered I have chocolate in the kitchen too.
1- Tax season has started! Which means I get another income because I prep taxes! Yay!
2- I love my little red RX8! Whenever logic creeps in and makes me want to trade it in for a bigger car I just go for a drive
3- I love how warm it has been! Think 0 to 25 F
the usual is about 20 below this time of year.
4- DH loves how I am planning to decorate a corner of our room for LO. Pink canopy over the cradle with purple butterflies on the walls.
5- I opened an account with Mint and and on the right track to budgeting and save tons of money like we should have been doing months ago!
6- I have an appt on the 13th with the birth center, super excited to get to know all the ladies there.
7- My coworker still sucks and pushes her work off on us.
8- I love going on tb throughout the day!
9- I am very proud of my weight gain. It has been really hard and testing.
10- I need to drink more water!
That One Gal From Alaska
@ArmyMedic7588, I'm in CT. Want to move to Hawaii with me???? BTW pics of your puppy are so cute! I want one! Almost had DH convinced to get a dog and then I found out I was preggers...
2- I have a massage this weekend-was last weekend and had to reschedule because of the snow and my cold.
3- My cold is going away (I think) which means I only had it for 5 days; not too bad!
4- My birth class starts this weekend. I'm both excited and nervous!!
5- Finally booked a doula and I LOVE her!!!
6- My first shower is on the 22nd!!
7- My glucose test is next Wednesday. Not dreading it yet cause I took the whole day off. We'll see how I feel about it next week!
8- My maternity pictures are in March
9- I have nothing to wear.... Well I just don't know what I should wear. I have clothes.
10- dh is in sunny warm Orlando and I'm stuck here in this snowstorm- argh! I better get a snow day tomorrow for this!!
1. My butt is always falling asleep now if I sit too long, which then makes my lower back hurt
2. I would really like to shave my legs but what's the point?
3. I will however, make an attempt to shave them before my next OB appointment
4. Sleep used to be my favorite thing now I dread getting in bed because it means I will toss and turn
5. I am not in maternity clothes. I have 1 pair of pants and 2 shirts but for the most part I'm wearing yoga pants with the band rolled up and any shirt that will stretch. It's been great not having to spend the money but I will have nothing for the Spring time. Boo.
6. It's going to snow a lot tomorrow which means I will have a snow day. I am fine with this because I am home sick with a fever today and could reallllyyy use another day.
7. My mom and I still aren't speaking. If you are in our cool facebook group then you know why. She posted that my Dad is having surgery this week, which I was 100% unaware of. I am so saddened and hurt that she continues to act this way. I sent my father a text message (because I knew he wouldn't answer his phone for me) saying that I loved him and missed him. I went on to say that just because she is choosing not to speak to me does not mean he needs to follow suit. I never heard back.
8. I have heartburn everyday.
9. I am ready for it to be Spring.
10. I can't think of 10 things
2. The only thing that stops my constant heartburn is chocolate milk but my glucose test is tomorrow...sigh*
3. I wish I had enough money to make a wonderful nursery for LO. I just found work after being laid off, so maybe there's time...
4. I'm glad LO is very active. It may cause discomfort, but I like that he's growing stronger.
5. Our baby shower is this month!
6. I need something pretty to wear to the shower but the stores are still drab.
7. Our masterbath renovations are almost complete!! It'll be nice to not have to walk as far to pee in the middle of the night.
8. My teen DS has the most wonderful heart and I hope he loves being a big brother! This LO will has a great role model!
9. I wish my dad was still alive to meet his 2nd grandson.
10. I'm thankful for this crazy life!
