After work I made dinner, did two loads of laundry, and organized the newborn sized clothes. I was going to load the dishwasher but the BH were bothering me, so now I'm watching men's skating.
I would like to add that I also bathed both boys (separately), did the dishes, took the trash out, and started cleaning the kitchen and living room. I'm also starting to get accustomed to getting only a couple hours of sleep at a time, though DS2 has been sleeping about five hours at a time.

I actually made it to Tot Shabbat tonight with DS. It started at 6:30, is across town, and I sat down for an hour after work making it so I really didn't want to go back out anywhere.

Went to the MW, went to three stores looking for the game DS wanted for his friend's birthday present, went grocery shopping, got a mani/pedi, put on makeup and did my hair, packed overnight bags for the kiddos and dropped them at their respective destinations, went to dinner with DH, and visited FIL (he had surgery today). All with no nap. I'm wrecked.

I got my car seat installed! I also dropped off my pee at the lab, went to work to fill out last minute paperwork, bought strawberries, did my admission for the hospital already, packed the hospital bag and ate half a box of thin mints. Now I REALLY want mcdonalds, courtesy of @ashleyo925
Went to my fav italian deli today...bought their dough, made homemade chic pesto pizza for v-day, and splurged on diff desserts for this evening... Cheesecake, mascarpone lemon cake, and the best friggin cannoli on the planet....not to mention, ordered a sandwich and knocked out my lunch there as well.... I feel so food accomplished from visiting one place
I picked up my stroller from the UPS place today, made Valentines Dinner, and worked, all with a sinus infection! I am ready for today to be over. Happy Valentine's Day ladies! Great job to everyone!
I made my last cake before Andrew comes for my little brother's bday. Between working 50 hours and having my two girls my body almost gave out on me but I am officially done!! Yaye!
I cleaned 3 bathrooms, the shower is the hardest as the head is not detachable. But the biggest accomplishment, drumroll please............. I cut my own toe nails!!!! Whooooo hooooo!
Perfect post timing as I was about to ask what amazing things we have done, that would be easy before pregnancy. And I am going to treat myself by having a Sonic. Plus I will feel less guilty about what I am about to do. Head to the auto parts store to buy new wiper blades and rear tail light and play the sciatic pregnant woman and hope they install them all for me .
I went to ikea. On a Saturday afternoon.
But even bigger than that - this morning, I went tithe French bakery for pastries. I somehow managed to make it all the way home before I busted into that box. I'm quite proud of my restraint.
Made it down town to bring my great-grandfather's pocket watch to the jeweler! The mainspring is broken. It's going to cost as much as the watch is probably worth to repair it, but I'm doing it. I want to be able to give it to LO if/when he graduates from college.

Along those lines, I went to a café this afternoon, bought an éclair, and only ate half of it. It was a rather dismal specimen of éclair, but throwing away the second half was still a minor triumph.
I'll AW my yesterday--I worked my 9 hour shift which consisted of almost nothing but standing and blowing up hundreds Valentine ballons, picked up a carseat cover for LO after work, and then drove 3.5 hours round trip to pick up my stepdaughter...while I was sick. And DH wondered why I was so crabby when I got home...
I showered and shaved my legs. Only because I was going for my Ultimate pregnancy massage that my DH bought me for Christmas. Then came home and took a nap.
I put on real maternity jeans instead of walking around in my yoga pants all day, cleaned all the snow off of my car by myself, took my younger sister to the mall, took cans and bottles back to the store, and managed not to strangle anyone for staring at my belly in the parking lot of the grocery store.
Today was a good day. I made cookies that turned out delicious and not burnt (our oven sucks and is older than me), went for a short hike without over-extending myself, helped DH install the carseat base in his car, showered AND shaved my legs for the first time in I don't know how long, and I even straightened my hair for our belated Valentine's dinner tonight. Which was amazing; super brownie points for hubbers
I have so far restrained myself from telling my husbands step mum to shut the fuck up. She is driving me nuts telling me all her shitty birth stories and telling me really dumb stuff like "oh the baby is sitting on ur bladder that's why you need to go to the bathroom all the time" Oh really?!!!? This is my third child and even if it was my first I don't need to be told obvious shit and hear your crappy birth stories like you're trying to scare me. IM TRYING TO BE POSITIVE HERE.
I buy DH and his dad tickets to Bruce Springsteen for Father's Day and they get to go to an awesome concert and I wind up sitting at home with dhs step mum driving me nuts. So not fair!!!
