10 Things!

Happy Tuesday, everyone!

1. Today is Remembrance Day and a paid holiday, but DH is at work and it's too cold to go out with DD.

2. My friend is stopping by and delivering coffee.... Starbucks caramel brule latte, to be specific.

3. Our neighbours were really stuck trying to find a last minute dog-sitter, so we took their chihuahua for a few days. He is absolutely terrified of DD and stays in his crate all day long.... I feel bad, but he will not come out unless she's not around.

4. Tomorrow we are telling the inlaws about baby #2. They are going to be so excited. I hate announcing that I'm pregnant, I get really awkward for some reason.

5. This weekend we are going to a Chinese one month celebration for our friend's baby. I've never been to one, but all I know is that there is a 10 course meal involved so I'm in.

6. DH goes back to work on Friday and won't be back until the day before we leave for vacation... meaning that I have to pack for all of us!

7. Last night he came home with bags full of snacks for me to eat while he's gone. None of them are healthy, but if he didn't buy them I probably would have myself... so it was a sweet gesture.

8. I swore to eat healthier this pregnancy, but I don't have the willpower to overcome these cravings! At least I've kept up my gym routine thus far.

9. I have a dating ultrasound next week, finally. It's at 7:30 in the morning and DH isn't going to be in town, so I have to drink a ton of water and get myself and DD fed, dressed, and out the door by 7... we don't normally wake up until around 8 so it should be interesting....

10. I've wasted DD's nap on the internet, as per usual. My house is still a mess and I'm still in pyjamas....

I do this all the time!

10. Last night I had pork chops pulled out for dinner but at the last minute, DH and I realized we wanted grilled cheese and tomatoe soup instead.

9. Parm pork chops for dinner tonight! Whoop whoop!

8. The last few days I've watched nothing besides sad love movies.

7. Today I watched One Day with Anne Hathaway, not even realizing it was sad.

6. Out of no where she got slammed by a bus and died.

5. I cried.

4. I was looking at pictures from a few years ago and realized how much I've let myself go.

3. I mean, I used to have way more time to get ready and take care of such things, but it bothers me that I'm really not the same woman DH fell in love with.

2. So I've decided that I am going to try my hardest to change things for the better and I'm hoping that that will help our relationship.

1. I really need to work out.

1. I had a fantastic date night in with DH on Friday night. Finished a whole large bottle of wine and watched the movie Blended. I was pleasantly surprised how much I liked it.

2. This weekend in general was pretty awesome. We got our Christmas pictures done at JCPenny with a great Living Social Deal. Only $14 for 30 cards, a 10x13 print and the sitting fee.

3. I didn't get the job I interviewed for last Monday so it looks like TTC is back on!

4. So I became a direct sales consultant for a certain nail wrap company and I am so excited. I think it will be great for me to do with DD.

5. It is 68 degrees here today. Where did fall go?

6. DD is still not taking steps or walking. She is really cute when she sways back and forth to dance.

7. I got paid for coaching this fall today and got a nice little raise! Yay for Christmas money

8. My sister is coming to hang out with us this weekend. I am really glad because DH will be gone most of the day so it will be nice to have someone to hang out with.

9. Planning anything is so rough right now since DD has no schedule for naps. She sleeps when she wants and it's never the same.

10. DH shocked me the other day and asked me to help him be more organized. The OCD in me is so happy!

@sugarkissed I think I am always in pajamas if I know I am not leaving the house for the day. You also have awesome friends who deliver coffee!

1. Parent-teacher conferences were yesterday and today. It is going to feel strange sitting on the "other" side for conferences when DS is ready to go to school.

2. Field trip tomorrow. As an non-classroom I usually don't go, so I get some extra time in my room to plan and meet with other teachers.

3. My uncle called and he invited us over for Thanksgiving. My parents are out west...far west so no Thanksgiving or really any holiday celebrations.

4. DS beginning to walk without help.

5. I am counting down the days to winter break.

6. Am I the only one that wants it snow? Am going to do my snow dance whenever it is forecasted to snow. I want snow days!

7. DS likes his baths again. He hated to take bath for a few weeks.

8. I want a glass of wine. Now that is getting cold. Red wine.

9. Or maybe a margarita or sangria would be good

10. I don't like having 7:30am meetings.

1. I really had been looking forward to having a glass of wine tonight after LO went to bed but for some reason I decided to have a small bowl of bbq chips instead. I regret that decision.

2. DH is reading a book for a training certification that he's going for for work while laying in bed with me. I just want him to cuddle me instead of read that darn book.

3. I babysat a 6 year old today since there was no school for Veteran's Day. Easy way to make $40!

4. We may be "renting" DH's grandmother's house for a few months as a trial to see if we really want to buy it soon. This is a great opportunity because we can keep our current home, renovate the bathroom, and potentially stage our current house before selling it.

5. I'm really scared of this potential change but at the same time I am so ready for our forever home.

6. I've been lurking the TTGP board and trying to get back in the swing of things before TTC officially begins.

7. I just bought a red dressy coat for LO for our xmas pictures from Old Navy that cost me $33 after shipping etc. That's more then I spent on her winter coat!

8. I am currently watching The Voice. Love this show.

9. I bought a similar deal like @soccermom11‌ bought for photos at Jcpenney but on Groupon. I'm planning on using it to do LO's 1 year pictures. We're so late to do this but I know we need a couple of these pictures done so we have some nice pictures to look back on this time. I'm struggling with what to have her wear...thinking a white and black heart printed shirt, jean jacket, black leggings and brown or black boots for a casual look. Tips/ideas welcome

10. After struggling to get my rebate from the contact lenses I purchased back in August, they finally approved it and said they'd send me my $10 rebate. The form said up to $100 rebate and I was hoping for at least $50 especially after all my troubles...bummer!

bossmom11 · November 2014

@lilqt3929 I have noticed Living Social and Groupon have very similar deals. I got a Living Social Deal for a dollar cheaper than an identical Groupon coupon yesterday. It was for Hibachi, great date night.

Also for your first year photos... We did two outfits- one was the outfit she is wearing in my siggy. Second was a grey sweatshirt with white polka dots and white ruffle around the bottom and mint blue pants. Whatever you choose it is going to be adorable!

Thirdly. I am also lurking around TTGP. I feel so lost since LO was unplanned.

lilqt3929 · November 2014

@soccermom11‌ the second outfit you mentioned is the exact same one I was eyeing at Jcpenney yesterday, too funny! I will have to check out Living Social, I try not to look too much at those sites because it gets so addicting! Maybe I'll see you around TTGP soon

I've started temping and have a Fertility Friend account because I'd like a few months of charts before TTC begins so I'm not too clueless.

ETA : posted too soon

bossmom11 · November 2014

@lilqt3929 Too funny for sure! They almost always have photo deals and dinner deals that make date night more affordable for us. I don't go on too much unless I know what I am trying to find and I search for it. Or else I would buy it all.

1. DS has been extra adorable and talkative these last few day.

2. After reading the toys post I gave DS the Melissa& Doug ball toy (I got it at a consignment sale 2 months ago) and he loves it!

3. I'm excited to take DS to the doctor tomorrow and hopefully get the okay to discontinue his bandaging.

4. DS has been really good during the bandage changes.

5. I think DS is going through a growth spurt, he's eating all the time.

6. I don't remember being this hungry this early on last pregnancy.

7. I also don't remember having as intense cravings.

8. I am in love with my new to me Pilot and highly recommend getting heated seats whenever possible.

9. I'm pretty sleepy and thinking about taking a nap on my lunch break.

10. I really hope it's sunny out tomorrow.

sugarkissed · November 2014

@munchkinsmama I'm STARVING constantly too! I'll have a full meal and then go grab a snack 10 minutes later.

bermybabe68 · November 2014

1. I missed TTT. Oops

2. I haven't posted in a while

. Sorry. I have been stalking though.

3. I dislike having to add a new paragraph/line on an ipad. It's too time consuming.

4. DH, DD and I flew to northern Ontario last night. We left Bermuda sweating our tails off from the humidity to freezing our buns off in the snowy winter storm.

5. I've been smoking 1 cig a night for a week now. What am I thinking!!! I need to stop ASAP before I get really hooked again. DD deserves better than that

6. In Canada for less than 24 hours and I dropped my first 'eh'. Haven't done that since I lived in BC 15 years ago.

7. We are visiting the in-laws. MIL is driving me so friggin crazy already. She's a good person, don't get me wrong, but I want to throw my head through a wall when around her. She is the most negative person I've ever met. She apologizes constantly. I swear she apologizes for her existence. FFS I can't take it!

8. This is my first time seeing snow in 5 years. Before that it was 10 years. I'm so excited for DD to play in the snow. I'm going to take soooooo many photos tomorrow

.

9. I have to pee but FIL just bombed the only bathroom. Darn.

10. DD did amazing on the flight here! Slept almost the whole flight from home to Toronto and was mostly good on the puddle jumper north. I really hope she'll be this good on the way home.

11. One more - MIL has gifted more stuff to dd than we have room for in our suitcases. I desperately need to buy clothes for myself and DH and now we're screwed.

Af1004 · November 2014

@bermybabe68‌ would it be worth shipping either you or LOs stuff?

Eta
Wow just realized that typo.... shipping not shopping

bermybabe68 · November 2014

@Af1004‌ shipping? Nah. I'll just buy and extra suitcase and lug it home. We came with 1 suitcase and one duffle bag so we can manage another suitcase. Plus it'll cost an arm and a leg to ship home. Thanks for the suggestion though!
