Re: 10 Things Tuesday
2. It's rainy and gross here and I hate it.
3. I can't wait to moveeeeeee already.
4. Today is a workout day, but I feel lazy and don't want to.
5. I'll still do it because I don't want to tell DH I'm lazy.
6. DD has been sleeping like shit and I really wish she took a pacifier.
7. I'm hungry.
8. I shall go to Pinterest to decide what to make for breakfast.
9. I've lost all of DDs baby spoons before. I think I throw them away or something, so I bought a new set and there's only one left now. Wtf? That's like 7 spoons that I've lost.
10. Oh! I just remembered that I bought iced coffee last night!! HELL. YES.
...::Runs off to overload on caffeine::...
ETA: words are hard.
2. The above night was the first time I got drunk since before I was pregnant. It didn't take much! Oh, and it was fun
3. At the end if the month, I'll be leaving LO again to celebrate a friend's 30th in NYC. I feel better prepared now that I have the first "away" under my belt.
4. LO is still not sitting unsupported. She'll be 8 months on the 28th. I'm trying not to worry.
5. 2 of my close girlfriends are expecting & I am really missing being pregnant! I had a dream last night that I was pregnant and was having a girl.
6. Having another baby right now would not be good for me, or my marriage. We got pregnant 2 months after being married and while we were so happy, it stressed us out immensely. We need some time to figure out how to be a married couple with ONE baby before we add a second. I also just can't imagine having 2 babies need me, and H needing me as well. The though of that makes me shudder!
7. I've been wearing my fitbit daily and using myfitnesspal everyday and slowly but surely, the baby weight is coming off.
8. LO is going through a leap right now and being extremely whiny and clingy.
9. H and I want to take LO camping for Memorial Day weekend. I'm nervous because she requires so much routine (bath, story time, white noise, etc) and H says she'll sleep if she's tired. I'm also not sure how a pack and play will fit in a tent... Hmmm.
10. Lately I find myself randomly singing songs from Mickey Mouse clubhouse... Hot dog hot dog hot diggety dog!
2. My LO is clapping now. I absolutely love it. In my mind she's saying "Go mommy go mommy!"
3. My Shih Tzu is acting a like a hot mess. She needs to pull it together. She has gotten out of my backyard multiple times this week. Everyone out here has aggressive guard dogs and has almost already been eaten by a neighbors German Shepard. I freak out each time because she's stupid and runs right up to these huge, mean dogs. Looking into an electric fence.
4. DH and I had a budget talk this past weekend and looks like I might need to start teaching next year. I'm tearing up just typing it out. He switched jobs and making half of what he did. That's construction for ya. We are trying to make it work but these next few months are a trial period.
5. I have been mulching the trees in our yard and very proud of my work. I've never done yard work so this is a new hobby.
6. I'm canceling on a memorial river trip because I've had horrible anxiety about leaving LO for 3 nights.
7. I am a Maid of matron in one of my best friends wedding and it's so damn expensive.
8. DH is such a good man. He has totally been trying so much harder lately and I truly am thankful.
9. Why can't money grow on trees? I will say there is less to fight about. When you don't got it there's not much to argue about. "More money more problems." Ha!
10. Hoping to hear back today about working at a local Mother's Day out program next year. That is the only working situation in which I don't completely get upset. LO will be down the hall and it's only 3 days a week for half a day.
I am a teacher and going back to teaching will be like starting all over being a first year teacher. For those of you that teach know how much work goes on at home and learning the ropes can be exhausting.
2) I think I see a bottom tooth starting to come up on LO's gums. This will be her first! I'm excited but also nervous about what's in store for us. I sent DH a text while hes at work to tell him and he said he can't wait to come home to check it out, I love how he gets excited about this stuff!
3) My BIL will be visiting in a few weeks to attend a family wedding. I'm not looking forward to seeing him for too many reasons to list. I need to figure out how to change my attitude towards him quickly!
4) I found out I'm going to have another niece or nephew in November. I'm excited to have another baby around and know it's going to give me baby fever. So far my brother's kids and my LO will all be 1 year and 2 months apart in age so I feel like I should continue on with the trend for our next one
5) I feel like I need to get involved with something that will make a difference in other people's lives. I've always wanted to do this and I figure what better of a time then now, it will set a good example for LO too. The problem is, I'm not sure what I'm going to do just yet.
6) I went to visit my former workplace last week and when I stopped to chat with my old boss she once again told me to let her know when I'm ready to come back to work, even if it's for just a few hours. I'm torn on this, part of me thinks I should take her up on the offer (the adult social interaction and work responsibilities would be good for me) but then again I'm really enjoying being home with LO. It's nice to know I'm missed and that they want me back either way!
7) Whenever I post in the is thread I always wonder what you all think of me.
8) I need to let MIL babysit LO for the first time at some point soon. I feel bad about it because she keeps asking to but LO seems to get really upset around her and it just breaks my heart.
9) I hate allergies, just like PP. I want to claw my eyes out, they are so itchy!!
10) Relating to #4, I feel like I should give my brother some of the baby items we don't need anymore since they did that with us. I will definitely give them back the things they gave us, but I'm not sure I can part with much more then that yet...
2. @drey1028, in regards to your number 4 I'm in the same boat. I've lost all my weight plus almost another 10lbs off my pre pregnancy weight. All my clothes are saggy, none of my pants fit. I don't have the money to go get a new wardrobe. My mil even approached me to make sure I haven't developed an eating disorder because she's concerned about my weight. I assured her I eat, a lot. If I didn't my supply would tank.
3. LO has not been going down for her naps easily anymore. She's also been very fussy and clingy, she's teething too. I'm so glad it was a long weekend, my husband really jumped in and helped me out with her a lot!! I feel recharged and ready to tackle the week, hopefully it will be better than the last one.
4. LO has started waving goodbye.
5. I take her tomorrow to get her height and weight done, as there were concerns a month ago at her appointment that she had not gained enough weight or grown enough inches. I'm hoping it all goes good tomorrow.
6. We had an intervention for my dad on Sunday night, it was very rough and emotional,I still feel drained from the whole process... It ended very positive though and he is going to seek help so it was all worth it.
7. I can't believe LO will be 8 months on the 21st!
8. That means I have 4 more months of maternity before I have to go back to work, I'm dreading leaving LO.
9. We got LO one of those vtech walkers, she LOVES it!!
10. My husband has taken some vacation time in August and I am so looking forward to taking our first night away from LO.
2. I walked all the way to the store yesterday wearing A so I can go buy some new sandals, when I got there the store was closed... I forgot it was a holiday.
3. My yard is a horrific mess of weeds. I want to do something about it but I know DD won't play contently in the play pen. I also need to hurry my ass up and plant my garden before it's too late.
4. Speaking of planting I've decided to try and plant a small potted herb garden.
5. I was having a bad day yesterday I'm guessing due to the stressful week of party planning and really wanted some company but my "friend" decided to do what she always does and not show up and only message me back at supper saying she lost track of time and can't come hangout.
6. I wish I lived in a house and not an apartment, I hate sharing the yard.
7. I think I'm the only one here that stuffs my face with junk and doesn't work out.
8. I haven't pumped in soooooo long because I don't need frozen milk since I'm always with DD. I think I should start pumping again... Burn some of those calories from my bad eating habits.
9. It's so beautiful outside and I have no energy to shower and get myself presentable to go out for a walk. I have so much laundry to do that I have no clean pants and I wore my last clean dress yesterday. Hmmmmm.
10. I want another niece or nephew so bad! My sister is finally working again after taking 5 years off to be with my nieces, so I don't think they will be trying anytime soon. Baby fever over here too but I don't want another for a few years.
2. As LO refuses his second nap of the day and I sit in the nursery ignoring my oldest - I wish I had taken the baby to daycare.
3. We leave on vacation in less than a month, I'm starting to have an anxiety attack.
4. I wish I had more time to bump, but work is crazy right now and the weather is finally nice, so we spend a lot more time outside.
5. LO only rolls to his right side. I'm seriously beginning to wonder if that is normal.
6. I am in desperate need for a night away with my husband. Unfortunately LO still won't go to sleep for anyone but me, and we stopped nursing 2 months ago.
7. I'm considering going away anyways and letting my mom deal with the meltdown. We have out of town plans in both August and October. He's going to have to learn eventually.
8. My husband just finished P90X and looks amazing. I struggle to get my 3 runs in a week because I'm so depressed about my appearance.
9. I'm tired of worrying about money all. the. time.
10. I'm now sitting with my 3 year old eating fruit snacks. They are delicious.
1. DD starting crawling yesterday. She is so proud of herself.
2. I can't wait for the three day weekend.
3. I am turning my three day weekend, into a four day weekend by taking off Friday. But I plan to take the kids to my parents as usual and do a full cleaning of the house.
4. DH cleaned up, did laundry and ran to Target yesterday while I was at work and he was home with the kids. He is such an amazing dad/husband.
5. Last night, I managed to pack everyone's lunch and have all the bottles made for today before 8 pm. It was a good night.
6. I need to work out more. I have never been this size in my life and it makes me sad.
7. Swim lessons start in a week and I am dreading wearing a bathing suit.
8. We are walking to the big neighborhood park when I get home from work today because the weather is perfect.
9. My best friend is in town and it has been awesome to have her just come over and talk for hours. We talk on the phone and text daily, but there is nothing like having her here.
10. I have a girls night planned with my best girlfriends this weekend. We are going to a little wine bar with yummy food. All but one of us is a mom, so our night out starts after the kids are in bed and ends by 11, which is perfect.
2. I don't know what Ten Things Tuesday is... so I am winging it.
3. I moved last Thurs. and I feel like our house it too nice to be our own.
4. DH is going to try and crib train DS tonight.
5. I don't crave wine this pregnancy, wtaf.
6. My assistant hasn't shown up for work last Wednesday, last Friday, this Monday or today...
7. October 2014 is a joke. Too many puppies.
8. If you haven't heard we're having a girl!
9. We're naming her Koa'ele Ranee
10. I nap in my car on my lunch break.

2) I too eat way, way too much junk food.
3) I've been trying to cut back a little and I think it's messing with my supply. I used to pump 7+ oz in a session. The last 2 times it's been closer to 4.
4) LO naps are not long enough. She'll sleep about 45mins. I used to be able to get at least 1 hour and a half nap but not anymore.
5) I've finally got most of the garden planted. We are doing green beans this year. Hopefully I can take good care if them and have canned beans next year.
6) DD likes to suck and blow on the floor. ... She decided to stuck on the bathroom for last night, ewwww
7) she has also started "preaching" she'll hold one hand half way up and babble like crazy. It's too cute.
8) I wish we had more money (don't we all)
9) I don't want to work more to get the money .... Don't want to be away from DD
10) I leave the tv on all day, LO will look at it from time to time for seconds but always watched when the weather comes on and the theme song for Big Bang Theory.

Eta: Out of curiosity, are you GD free this time around? I remember you asking me if I would start off with the diet from the get go with a next pregnancy, I'm just wondering if that's what you decided to do?
2. LO is so funny and such a brat at the same time. She started yelling at me if my back is turned doing something while we are in the kitchen and she wants a puff. Impatient little girl on my hands.
3. My dad is taking a trip to the holy land with the Catholic Church and visiting some really cool places and swimming in the Dead Sea. I'm super nervous for him being away though.
4.We have our chocolate lab Cocoa while my dad is on the trip (he was mine basically but I couldn't take him when I moved out because he also loved my mom equally. She would have been so lonely). All the dog hair is making me question if I want to get a dog. I always had one growing up and I love them, but ehhh not so keen on all the clean up.
5. My sister in law had a stroke while visiting her mom in Iowa whose dying of breast cancer pretty suddenly. She will need to learn to walk again amongst other things. Please keep her in your prayers.
6. My MIL had a birthday today and I got the cutest picture to send her. I'm so glad I got it on the first try!
7. I have so many appointments coming up. Ortho was today, hair Thursday, teeth cleaning Friday, eye doctor next Tuesday and I need a pedi appointment, too. I'm excited for all the appointments, I love clean teeth, fresh hair and new glasses!!
8. I had a really creepy dream about my mom's death last night. It was similar to how she passed but she was younger in my dream and I went to see her at their house, she was lying asleep on the recliner and I sat next to her and held her hands and asked her to wake up to talk to me. Her eyes burst open and she said in a very scary way, "I waited for you!" Then died in my arms. So friggin' creepy.
9. Speaking of my mom I thought about taking LO to my moms grave but I don't know if I want to. It makes me too sad being there to begin with and I always feel kind of awkward talking to her grave but a part of me feels like its a healing thing if she "meets her" even though I know logically she's not meeting her, it's an emotional thing for me I guess. I dunno...
10. I apologize my 10 things are always hella long!
