Favorite Summer Time Treat: "Anything Poolside!"

Re: Fabulous Friday Spamaroo
OK, so I think I'm in major meltdown mode... I'm on the edge of tears this morning and it's taking everything I have to contain myself... Throwing myself a pity party, I know... I just don't want to do this whole "work" thing anymore but I don't want to wish away the last 6 ( :-O ) weeks of this pregnancy either! I'll blame it on terrible sleep last night coupled with standard pregnancy hormones...
In lighter news... O-H-!

@lotsofdotts T&Ps to your friend and her family!
Not much on my mind this morning, to early and to tired. Happy Friday though!
DH gets to start bring home a company truck this weekend
Rant: DH & I are blowing up the landlords phone today & maybe our lawyer.. Couldn't get him to answer our phone calls to get here and fix our heater and hot water! And the cost for people to come do it yesterday...ouch! Was cheaper for us to get a hotel room for a night!

Today I'm working, and have an ob appt. then one of DH's extended family invited me over for dinner and is giving me a bunch of hand me down baby clothes! I'm quite excited about the clothes.
@lotsofdotts - T&Ps for your Forbes and her little one.
@aggiebug - we have the same plans today. The house "looked" like it was in order for the holidays but that's because all the crap got shoved in out bedroom. Ughhh it's going to be a long day! But I WILL get it done.
My growth scan is today. Baby b needs to have stayed in the 10%tile or gotten better or they might deliver me today. I'll take any good vibes for growth. I want to cook these babes for two more weeks!
Happy Friday to everyone & HBD to chicken!!

Well last night was the second sleepless night I have had this week. Between my hubby tossing and turning all night, my dogs constant loud snoring, and the baby deciding that she needed to wake up and spazz out at 4 this morning; I don't see how anyone could sleep through that no matter how exhausted they are. *sigh* I am meeting a new potential consultant later this afternoon and I could really use a few hours sleep. Maybe I'll try after hubby goes to work here in a few minutes....... (:|
@MissEm15, T&P and FX that baby b is growing well so they can stay cooking in there a little while longer!
Happy birthday Chicken! I am ashamed to say I didn't know this or I would have wished you an HBD earlier!

I had my NST today. The baby refused to move. Boo! However, everything else looked fine. The doc didn't seem to be too concerned about the movement.
So I'm really getting irritated with these hospital policies. I have to be "taken" down to my ultrasound appts by wheel chair because heaven forbid I walk even though not on bed rest. They wheel me in, take me into the hallway and shove me into a corner until the techs are ready.... embarrassing so then after the appt same story I go back to my corner to wait for a volunteer to wheel me back up to L&D. Mind you this volunteer that shows up is at least 90 years old and can hardly walk on her own. I guess it's safe to say my day hasn't had the brightest start. I'm so over this stay ready to be home with my little one. On a different note they told me today he is measuring 7lbs 4oz. At 35 weeks that's huge!!!
I've been sick for the past couple days, and yesterday was beyond terrible. DH finally put his foot down and took me into ER at 9pm. They set me up with some zofran to keep things down because I hadn't even been able to keep down liquids. And they got my fever to finally break.
Things are better this morning though, and baby is doing fine.
Random good note- my shower is next weekend. Is anyone else guilty of registry stalking?
January Siggy Challenge:
Being able to get out of bed on the first try
I'm so freaking sick of the twins and "maybe they gave you the wrong die date" comments, too! I get them everyday I'm in public, it seems. Can't people understand that short peoe with tiny short torsos are going to look bigger? It isn't freaking rocket science. People are shocked when I explain that actually I measure exactly where I should be for my week in pregnancy. I'm shocked I haven't punched someone in the freaking face!
Happy birthday @ChickenOnSunday ! I hope you feel well celebrated today!
Um, yes! Mine is next weekend also, definitely stalking!
My spam: we are on vaca and went paddle boarding on Monday. We have been out with the guy we went with before but for kiteboarding and before I was pg. We got on the boat on Monday and I made a joke that if I had the baby while we were out I would name it what the boat name is. The look of fear in this guys eyes was hilarious but then he didn't have room for me on the boat today when everyone else is kiting (I was going to hang out and take pictures-no kiting)
Happy birthday @ChickenOnSunday !!!
Happy Birthday @ChickenOnSunday!!
Off to my OB appt.
Shower is tomorrow. I've been banned by my mom on the registry stalking. I've stayed true but wanted to make sure I still had a good variety, so my sister checked it for me. Of course this whole two week vacation we get no snow, but they are predicting for tomorrow! I just hope those driving from out of town are safe.
(Even though I'm a California girl I was born in Ohio and my family are all crazy Ohio State fans)
Shower tomorrow (eeeee!) and I am trying desperately to shake off a super gross cold. The good news is I'm in the "feel better, sound awful" phase, the bad news is sometimes I cough too hard and pee a little.
Work is slooooow here. But it's not surprising since it's the day between a stat and a weekend. Easy vacation day win. There are four people in the office today - myself (engineer), my husband (acting manager), receptionist, and a lower level manager that's just sailing his way to retirement in about 2 weeks.
Needless to say, it's quiet - but on the bright side, the commute was amazing.
I've been keeping up a little more with you ladies lately, although I'm not always commenting. Things are going to be a bit busy for the next seven weeks. This is the first time I've worked all the way to my due date (I usually leave six weeks in advance)! It'll be weird not getting in those end of pregnancy naps.
Monster Truck (It's a GIRL!) is due 19/02/2015!
In his defense, we stopped on NYE for one of those mint shakes and I had to have the new hushpuppies and a fish sandwich to go with it. Turns out baby doesn't like shakes even if mama does. But we've had to go back every day for more fish sandwiches and hushpuppies.
I had a lady tell me that I didn't look like my body could make another month and that if I grew anymore I might actually explode. I'm so sure that will happen. Human bodies aren't prepared for or capable of expanding. One more month until people start telling me "I dropped all my baby weight in a week" or "I guess it's gym time now that the baby is out".
I guess I'll be setting some reminders tonight to pack my hospital bag and to get the first few boxes of baby clothes out and ready (0-3 mo and 3-6 mo).
I feel like I've been in denial this entire pregnancy that there will actually be a THIRD small human in our house. Holy moly, people!

Favorite Summer Time Treat: "Anything Poolside!"
Yesterday I too started feeling anxious about what's about to come. Granted I still got 6 weeks to go. I've picked out a couple of outfits for the baby to come home in and did laundry. Nursing stuff are on order and now I'm panicking over bottles and breast pumps. This weekend DH promised to take us crib shopping. Maybe I'll feel more prepared once the crib shows up.
I encountered my first rude comment at the gym this morning. A guy that I regularly run into at the pool asked if I'm due anyday now, cos I'm looking sooooooo huge (yes, he said "sooooooooo"). I didn't have a comeback at all, cos panic set in immediately that I'm no longer in the "cute bump" category. I even went on the scale and found that I somehow put on 2lbs since 2 days ago. I felt very sad while I was in the shower, but I'm better now after having a snack. (Yes, I'll continue to stuff my face, nothing can change the fact I'm sooooooooo huge, might as well get some enjoyment out of my current condition.)
