Tell us all about it! Also, remind us where you live, and tell us how the weather is!

Thought I'd kick it off today while doing the 4:30 am feed! I obviously live in Seattle

. The weather has shifted and after a stunning summer, the rains are back. I don't mind but I am sad to be limited on walks and stuff. I am excited for fall though. J is back to working in her shops so I have a lot more alone time with Simone. I've been meeting up with mom friends which has been great so I'm doing that today and tomorrow we are meeting with another couple from our childbirth ed classes who we really liked (we made 3 "couple friends"). Plus we are meeting up on Sunday possibly with the gay guys we met at the PEPS intro session who just adopted a newborn baby boy. Otherwise just chores, feeding and hanging out with Simone and J. And hopefully some yoga!

Nice weather here in Austin, TX! This has been a very mild September for TX. Waking up to temps in the 60s and maxing out in the high 80s for the most part. Makes dressing for the day a bit challenging. The morning weather makes you want to dress for fall, but the afternoons are still quite warm. Whatever. It's not a 100. I'll take it!

Busy weekend. Tonight we are going to a friend's 40th birthday party. Friday night events are hard for us, but it's a special celebration so we're trying to make it work. My friend is babysitting.

I'm going to hit up the MOM sale in the morning. My BFF (who just entered her second tri) is going with me. We don't have a lot of time to hang out anymore, so even if the sale is a bust, I get some bestie time.

We have another friend who invited us to his son's 4th birthday party on Saturday. It doesn't start until 5:30pm, which is such an odd time for a young child's party if you ask me. We're gonna try and stop by for a little bit, but Ash starts getting ready for sleep between 7:00 and 7:15 these days, so we can't stay too long. We're not very scheduled parents when it comes to a lot of things, but I'm a stickler about bed time.

We have a 5K to start the day on Sunday, then grocery, cooking, etc.

Sheesh. That's a lot. Happy Friday, everyone!

KH826 · September 2014

I live in Philadelphia. The weather has been all over the map lately. The seasons can't really decide what they want to do. Yesterday was cold and rainy, but today is supposed to be a high of 77 and sunny (perfect!). The forecast tells me that it is supposed to be 82 and sunny both Saturday and Sunday. That is definitely warmer than usual for this time of year here.

So, tonight I'm making breakfast for dinner (scrambled eggs with sautéed potatoes and peppers), and we are watching last night's Grey's Anatomy premier that is currently in our DVR. I didn't realize so many shows were coming back this week, and I still had a bunch of random stuff in the DVR from maternity leave that I never got around to watching. Well, now the DVR is 97% full. Woops!

Tomorrow we are dropping off Reese at the groomer in the morning, and then we are headed to a diner where we used to go with J's grandmother all the time. It used to be her grandmother's favorite place for breakfast, and we would pick her up (she didn't drive) and take her there on Saturdays a lot before she passed away. Anyway, we just found out that the diner is closing and this is the last weekend, so we are going to meet J's mom there for breakfast tomorrow. Then we plan to go to the cemetery to visit J's grandmother and leave flowers (since it is right by the diner). Last time we were at the cemetery I was pregnant, and J talked to her grandmother to tell her we were having a little Lucie, named after her. Well, tomorrow when we visit we will have William with us. J's grandmother always had a super sense of humor. I think it will be emotional, but we will likely crack a few jokes about our surprise. After that I am sure Reese will be ready to be picked up from the groomer.... and we will probably do grocery shopping later on in the day...

On Sunday we are going to an arts and crafts festival in a local park that is being advertised as "Bark in the Park," It is sponsored by a local animal rescue organization, and families are encouraged to some and bring their dogs. There will also be an adoption event there for rescued pups. So, we have decided we are going to go and take Reese. I feel like poor Reese hasn't been getting as much attention lately, and when we make plans for fun family things to do on the weekend, she often gets left at home. I am excited to go do something where we will bring her. I am hoping it will be fun. Hopefully later on Sunday there will be time for some relaxing and hanging out also. Oh, and maybe emptying out some of the DVR ;-)

Yeah... I guess we have a semi-busy weekend planned again too... how does this keep happening?!?!?!

bfonz619 · September 2014

I live in sunny San Diego B-) and the weather this week has been gorgeous! We do not have much planned this weekend with the exception of dinner and cake for our nephew that just turned 5. Outside of our usual dog beach and park outings we will probably continue our organizational projects at home.

I hope everyone has a great weekend!

2brides · September 2014

I live between DC and Baltimore (though I consider us more of a DC 'burb!)

Cool mornings (60ish) and warmer afternoons (75ish.) Clear and sunny. I wish it was a bit cooler (supposed to be in the 80s this weekend, but it is not too humid.)

Tonight - We are having the kids' friend spend the night again tonight.I will pick her up after work and meet L and our kids at the mall. L is going to get their haircut while they wait for us and then we'll eat dinner and then put everyone to bed at a decent time - since our kids are still hacking up a lung. L and I have a DVR full of stuff to watch.

Tomorrow - Let the kids play/do laundry, take them to a movie, we need to return some stuff and buy the kids' long sleeved uniform shirts. We'll meet up with the friend's family for dinner and drop her off.

Sunday - Church, lunch, flag football practice/game and soccer practice/game (all day...)and then home to get ready for the week. I had no idea that sports were going to take most of our Sunday (2-5:30.) Sigh.

Himee33 · September 2014

I live in Evanston, IL. We border Chicago on the north shore. Weather here has been a bit wacky. Some days cold and rainy, some days sunny and cold. Yesterday was warm and today it's supposed to be warm. It's nice to finally wear jeans and hoodies again, but today I have shorts on. I love fall!

L and I are heading to Dubuque, Iowa for the weekend. L's college roommate and really good friend is getting married and she's in the wedding. We already went to their ceremony a few months ago but this time they are having a full wedding and reception.

Wednesday was our 1 year wedding anniversary so we will be celebrating that this weekend also!

ATXmommas · September 2014

Happy Anniversary, @Himee33‌!

Jazibel · September 2014

We're in the San Francisco Bay Area. We've had a much celebrated rain the other night! I haven't had my mini-van washed since before Owen was born (so more than 5 months) because of the drought. Yay for rain!! It's definitely Fall weather around here, the days are still warm in the 70's and 80's but the nights are cooler in the 60's.

This weekend is all about the move. Today I finish packing and hopefully get some of the cleaning done around the house. Saturday I'd like to go to our new house and hang curtains, art work and assemble the ikea shelves we bought.

Sunday morning at 8am the movers come. I'll take the kids in the morning (where - I'm not sure yet, to the park, on a walk. Maybe to the gym). EV will oversee getting the truck loaded with the movers. I'll follow the movers to our new house and EV will drop the boys off with our in-laws and return to our old house to finish cleaning. She'll pick the boys up and meet me at the new house in the afternoon and hopefully we can put some semblance of a normal evening routine together.

Jazibel · September 2014

@Himee33 - Happy Anniversary!!!!

KH826 · September 2014

@jazibel - good luck with your move! Moving with kiddos scares the crap out of me HAHA... I am hoping to move in less than a year, hopefully before getting pregnant again so that I can lend my "muscle" HA! Anyway.. I can only imagine how stressful it is managing all of this with not 1, but 2 LOs! Good luck and keep us posted!

Karlamo · September 2014

@jazibel, Best of luck for a smooth and problem/drama free move. After just doing it with 1, at the time non mobile kid, I'm feeling for you with 2 kids!!

firstcomeslove2013 · September 2014

We are in Columbus and the weather is beautiful here...a little chilly but great!!!

@shameless370087‌ we lived in Louisville (moved to Ohio a few years ago) and come back there several times a year (C's parents live in Oldham County). Let me know if you need any tips or help...I love Louisville!

@Himee33‌ Happy Anniversary! Hope you get some good celebrating time this weekend!

This weekend is CRAZY busy.

Today I am packing/cleaning the house...still. We are closing next week but we will be in our current place until the 31st. Our landlord wants us to start showing the house next week which i think is crazy but we've agreed to let him...well...we'll be showing the house...

Tomorrow someone is coming to look at the house and see what kind of work needs done. My parents are coming into town and my mom, niece and I will hang out while C, my sister, dad and BIL go to the OSU game.

Sunday- church, hanging out and then our friends are throwing us a tye-dye party where we are going to tye-dye items for the babe! I am excited!

Jazibel · September 2014

Thanks @KH826‌ & @Karlamo‌ we'll take all the luck we can get!! :-)

mallory4284 · September 2014

Happy Anniversary @Himee33‌

And good luck with the move @Jazibel‌

I'm in Indiana. The weather has been amazing here! It's warmed up a little too much for my taste the past few days, but it's still only low 80's as a high. I love that it's cool in the mornings but doesn't get unbearably hot in the afternoons.

I said I was going to start cleaning when I got home from work.... An hour later, and I still haven't done a thing! So hopefully tonight will consist of me getting the motivation to clean up around here and I've got my fingers crossed that J gets home from work at a decent time so we can go have dinner. I feel like I haven't seen her all week....

Tomorrow we're going to a football game with my sister, brother in law, and niece. Then, I think we're all going over to my parent's house to hang out.

Sunday is still plan free. It will probably consist of laundry, a trip to the dog park, possible trip to the store, and I need to go around town getting pictures of the community for a book I'm making for work.

redrockmama · September 2014

We live in Salt Lake City. We are having an very unusually warm start to fall here. It's been in the high 80's low 90's this week, it's been colder in the morning, evening but crazy warm during daylight hours. It's supposed to rain all weekend and then be chillier next week. I'm kind of sad. I feel like I didn't really get to enjoy the summer and summer is my absolute favorite.

This weekend we don't have much scheduled, which is nice. Tonight my mom is dropping by after work. She bought M a bunch of clothes and bigger pj's and wants to bring them over. Hopefully J doesn't work too late. Last check she said about 6ish.

Tomorrow we are going to a "lesbian professionals" meet-up at Oktoberfest. I'm excited to go hang out in the mountains and M will get to wear his little patagonia hoodie. I'm such a nerd.

So far it looks like Sunday will be a chill day to hang around, do some grocery shopping and cleaning. J wants to buy more clothes for work. We'll see if we up to it on Sunday or not.

ATXmommas · September 2014

Y'all, I just want to go home and be with my wife and baby. I don't wanna get dressed up and go to a party tonight!

(

Jazibel · September 2014

@ATXmommas‌ - I hope the party turns out to be fun. I totally understand the sentiment!! :-(

ball.and.chain · September 2014

I'm sorry @ATXMommas!

I am in Boston and our weather has been similar to what KH describes in Philly (probably a few degrees cooler). It has definitely felt like fall but will be warm this weekend -- which is kind of nice as it is my last weekend before going back to work! :-S

So the weekend is going to involve a lot of organizing. B starts daycare on Monday so we have to get everything together for him. I need to try on more clothes to see what fits and may have to make a quick mall run to pick up a few things if I don't have enough. I am also changing my commute and need to check out the parking options. I also need to soak up lots of baby time!

My wife took next week off to help ease my transition back to work (and B's to daycare) so she will be around both days this weekend. I hope that will give us time to fit something fun in as well as the organizing and errands and chores. We were invited to my friend's 1yo's birthday party on Saturday, not sure if we'll drop by or not.

StacyLH24 · September 2014

We live in southwestern NY, a bit more than an hour south of Buffalo. The weather has been mainly in the mid-upper 60s. The leaves are changing which makes it nice and colorful here.

Tonight I am finally relaxing at home while C is working. I was going to clean, but I've found myself on the couch and that's probably where I'll stay until she gets home.

Tomorrow C and my Dad are going to continue splitting and stacking wood. I'm sure I'll clean and/or spend time outside with our dogs. I would be helping with the wood if it wasn't for this whole maybe being pregnant thing. I asked at our transfer and was told even stacking was off limits.

Sunday we are driving (well C is, I'm just a passenger) one of my Uncle's custom cars to a car show in North East, PA.

We're hoping to celebrate our two year wedding anniversary at some point since it's on Monday and she'll be working two jobs plus starting her Class B CDL class.

In other news, I have no definitive news on the pregnant/not pregnant front yet. I did test Tuesday night and Wednesday morning and got BFNs. Today is the equivalent of 14 dpo (9dp5dt) and I still haven't gotten my period. C thinks it is because I'm pregnan. I think maybe or maybe it's the meds holding things off - not that meds have ever stopped my body before. Either way, I've never made it this far without knowing for certain that it didn't work. I haven't P'dOAS since Wednesday morning.
