Re: Monday Randoms
@snowbaby1214 I can't see sigs, how far along are you? Not much longer now! Enjoy the last few days - labor is a bitch.
Fwiw, I thought I was totally tough enough to do it all natural. I am not..!!!! And you know what, I'm ok with that. Huge respect for anyone who chooses to go through that willingly.
@snowbaby1214 - no end in sight over here either, 38 weeks today. The doctor got my hopes up at my last visit! At least another shift is almost over where I didn't have baby on the floor of my unit. My coworkers are thankful for that.
Have to go out to celebrate my little sisters 21st bday tonight with my family, and I really don't feel like being the huge fat preggo at the bar that everyone stares at, assuming I'm drinking. Would much rather bump from my couch next to the fireplace!
@MusicFanatic Sounds like a perfect morning. Can't wait to get there too.
I got a lot done yesterday. I had another wave of productivity where I went through DS' clothes and put away all the 18-24 month ones. My baby is growing up! But that's ok - I'm getting another one in a month.
The next four days are going to be really busy - I'm working Monday - Wednesday, and we have plans every evening too. And then I have to make sugar cookies and broccoli salad at some point.
DH was also busy this weekend and got all the doors painted that he's making for the interior or our house. It looks like this LO and DS will have bedrooms with doors just in time!
@bkmama, good luck!
Prepping us for outside baby sleepless nights.
DH wants to do a ton of laundry today which admittedly needs doing but I feel so unmotivated these days that I'm hoping he sleeps in super late haha. We have our hospital tour this evening so I'm excited for that!
It's 7 and DS is still asleep. Why the hell am I awake?
Yesterday a couple of friends threw a small sprinkle for me. It was awesome and I feel incredibly blessed with the people in my life. @CuppyCakes721 came and she made LO a beautiful quilt. Seriously, I love all the kick ass people I have met on TB and I'm too emotional for all feels.
Emu dance parties and donuts?
I took the opportunity to finish my Christmas shopping. Oh my word. People are so aggressive in the malls. Where on earth is the goodwill?
Anyway, after being up on my feet for about 4 hours, I can't even waddle anymore. Too sore.
Wish i was having a baby before breakfast today...
Get to see my parents briefly for lunch before they head home (5 hours away) and then my in-laws are arriving this afternoon for about a week (they live 8 hours away). I'm horrible and will totally take advantage of my mil cleaning and helping organize and decorate nursery for the final touches. I like doing stuff but decoration and arts and crafts stuff tend to stress me out instead of relax.
@HappyMonkey817 good luck to you too. I have to get those swabs done Wednesday (happy Christmas Eve to me).
The only good thing about today is that I get to see my little sister. Other than that I'm anticipating more drama. I really hate this time of year. It was nice for the first week of December then my dysfunctional grandmother had to start shit. I won't bore you all with a long story but the short version is that my grandmother is a giant child and told everyone she wasn't coming over for Christmas and maybe even my shower (it's on the 28th) because my parents aren't doing a big dinner on Christmas Eve.... She wants Maine lobster tails and my parents told her that with all the money they have spent on her and her house ($3 grand) plus Christmas and my shower they weren't going to spend $15 a pound on lobster tails. She told them that before they moved to Georgia they always had a get together on Christmas Eve and ate shrimp and lobster tails (not true because I'm highly allergic to shell fish and she knows this!). The only get together my parents had was having my sisters god parents over. We would have a bunch of finger foods and get to open the presents they brought. I NEVER saw her or my great grandmother that day.
She yelled at me for a good hour last night about how inconsiderate my parents and brother and I are and how she can't stand how we treat her like a second class citizen....I almost maxed out a credit card taking her 3 dogs to the vet to get up to date on all their shots and bought the expensive flea and heart worm shit because "you can't buy the generic stuff" (her words! Not mine). At the end of the appointment 1 needed xrays because his eye got some kind of infection (thank god it only needed antibiotics) but by the end of the appointments the bill was over a grand! All I got in return was "thanks hun, could you pick up some groceries on your way back?"...
Grrrrrr! I'm done. I promise. I said I wasn't going to bore you all with a long story. I'm going to focus on shopping with my sister! We are having lunch at our favorite Mexican restaurant and the thought of their salsa is seriously making my mouth water! Lol
Add me to the GBS + club. I was negative with my first. Boo.
Just sitting here at work trying to finish my last report of the year. People are pissing me off already haha....I really need a new job in 2015. :-)
@elleswarth You should get a really fancy mocktail just to confuse people and get their panties in a bunch...
I am trying to convince myself to go to the grocery store. I know it's going to be packed.
Had a good time making Christmas cookies with the kids yesterday. Here is Owen making his own. :x
Good luck @bkmama hoping pit speeds up labor for you and you will get to me baby before lunch
@bkmama go baby go!!!
@RobertJane33 good luck on Wednesday !!
@BabyStandish the fact that you even think about running inspires me
37 week appt today. I'm hoping for some progress even if that means nothing.
