Monday Randoms!

Morningggg, happy Monday :)

What's going on in your heads? 

I have my typical Monday ultrasound + NST today. Always exciting and a little tense for me.

My husband stopped by before work and surprised me with...

that bad boy. I thought you all would appreciate it ;)

Re: Monday Randoms!

  • Sprinkle donuts are my fave.

    My random- it's 5 a.m. here and I can't sleep cuz my house makes weird noises. Also, idk if baby has hiccups or what, but I feel like it keeps jabbing me in the same spot. Oh! It just stopped ;)

    Good luck on your U/S.

  • I was in such a good mood this morning because it was like 45 degrees outside. I normally am ALWAYS cold and really hate when it starts to get cold out but for once in a long time it felt so good not to be hot!! I also am really digging my outfit today!
  • The weather is beautiful today and my coffee is the best I've had in months (I can't wait to take my next sip).

    If only I didn't have to work for a living.

  • We have used DirectTV for almost 5 years now, but are thinking of dropping it for something else.  It just feels like we are paying too much for what we are getting.

  • Adding sprinkles to ANYTHING is a good way to RUIN a perfectly good baked good.  Blech!  When I get donuts for work, I selfishly get a variety but insist on no sprinkles because the sprinkles get on ALL the donuts and I hate the way they mess up the texture ;)  

    You've lost your marbles!!!! X_X

  • It's my birthday!!! Just sent our DD off to school, so I'm back in bed, hoping to catch up on the sleep that I just can't seem to get these days, especially no thanks to my husbands increase in snoring lately. Someone needs a sleep trial! Hope your tests go well today @MusicFanatic‌ !!
    @elleswarth - thank you :) And Happy birthday! I hope you have a great day!!

  • Happy birthday, @elleswarth!

    My random is that I've decided to cut down on sugar. I had an insane amount of sweets and dessert on Saturday and had a massive headache from it yesterday. Yesterday I managed to have no dessert. I'm going to try and go a few days with none to kind of re-set/detox, and then I'll go from there. Some sugar here and there is fine for me but when I have too much my headaches are just too crappy.

    @MusicFanatic's donut looks insanely good, though. Gahh this is hard. 
  • We got a dozen cider donuts last night from the orchard. Two disappeared last night and I'm not sure how many will be left by the time my husband gets home from work.

    Happy birthday @elleswarth‌!

    And I love sprinkles, but around here they're called jimmies. ;)

  • Team no sprinkles.

    Happy birthday, @elleswarth‌!

    My random is that I overslept today, but I don't really mind it. I must have needed the sleep!
  • @ladyamanuet‌ Philly, all jimmies.. lol.

  • Oh I have another one.

    Anyone else starting to feel REALLY large? It's becoming hard for me to get off the couch or out of bed, put my shoes on, pick stuff up off the floor, etc. I just feel gigantic. 11 more weeks of this?! And it's going to get worse?! 
    Not REALLY large yet but I can definitely feel it - bending over and getting stuff requires effort.  Turning over in bed requires effort.  I try to explain to DH but he doesn't get it.

    DH sees me struggling. I was grunting this morning when trying to get my shoes on. And he had to help me get off the couch twice yesterday. Eek.

    I told DH that I can't change DS' crib sheets anymore because my belly gets in the way when I try to lean over the rail, and I can't reach the other side of the mattress because of it. Score! That was not one of my favorite chores anyway.
  • @elleswarth‌ HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I hope you have a fantastic day! Go get yourself something sweet to eat!


    I've never had a cider donut but they sound amazing.

    yes :/
    I've gained a lot of weight (more than the recommended) - likely since I can't get out of bed and move. So I'm doing no activity. And 98% of that is in my stomach, I think.  I'm also measuring 2 weeks ahead when they check me.  I feel bigger when I see the HDBD pictures.. but I know everyone carries different.  Mine is ALL in my stomach.  I always wonder how the heck she's going to fit as I get bigger, though, seriously.  I'm also short with a short torso and I don't think that's helpin'!

    Mine is all in my belly also. I think that's why it's so hard to bend over. I'm also short (5'2").

  • My random: I really want the sandwich from the Arnold bread commercial. It looks so good....

    Happy birthday @elleswarth‌!

    Good luck with your tests @MusicFanatic‌!
  • These are THE BEST sprinkles.

  • I am also team sprinkles are gross. Ick.

    My random is DH is a nurse and works 7pm-7am. Well the hospital was super short staffed this morning and he ended up working an extra 4 1/2 hours this morning. Because it will be 1230 by the time he gets home today, he's not going to want to go to bed when he gets home which means he'll be asleep in the recliner by 4ish. I wish he'd just go take a nap like a normal person. Lol. I mean, the $20 extra dollars per hour when he stays over is nice but he's going to be a pain today.

    At my 28 week appointment next week, I get another peak at baby girl which is exciting but it's also making me nervous. They're doing another ultrasound because she wouldn't be still enough for then to get good pics of her heart. So, just hoping all is well with that.

  • My random: I am going shopping at the mall today and I'm really looking forward to pigging out at the food court. The only problem is that there are so many options- it makes deciding what to get so hard!! Maybe I'll just have to get one of everything... ;)

    No this is just craziness!
    Too funny. These don't taste like weird waxy chalk, they actually taste like chocolate with just a bit of chewy texture, sooo good on a chocolate cupcake with vanilla buttercream.

    Only the chocolate ones are jimmies, rainbow ones are sprinkles. ;) In (most parts) of New England you don't need to say chocolate or rainbow, you say jimmies or sprinkles only and they know what to put.

    Happy birthdya @elleswarth!

    @excitedmama2 - I thought we were friends.....


    I was going to say this. The difference in sprinkles and jimmys. Lol. There are a lot of things New Englanders say differently. :)

    Also happy birthday @elleswarth .
    And good luck at your scan MF.

    @MusicFanatic she's huge! And we're only 3 days away from magical week 30!

    @saiven- I know!  30 weeks sounds so far to me. Eeeekk!  And she's measured consistently ahead for awhile, I'm hoping their estimates are at least semi close so she won't be such a peanut when she comes. 

    CONGRATS on your paying off your car!! That is such an awesome feeling.

  • Oh I want to pay off our car too, but we just got it in May so that's definitely NOT happening. Haha.

    Congrats though, @saiven! That must be such a good feeling!!

    Mall pretzel FTW.

    YES that's what I was thinking! There's a Wetzel's in the mall. I love the pretzel bites dipped in jalapeño cheese sauce. AMAZING.

    Is it weird that I always get two?

    One normal salt and one cinnamon sugar. It's like dinner and dessert!


    That's not weird at all- it's frickin brilliant!!

    NICE!!!  I thought I was doing well at $3.05 a gallon on Saturday.  Paying less than $40 to fill my tank was so nice!
    I'm super excited about gas prices, also. DH is in NJ today for work - they have super cheap gas, so I told him to fill up. I'm probably more excited about it than I should be.
