  Free bagels and rolls in the teacher's lounge of the school I am subbing at today.

  I (hopefully) get to hear the baby's heartbeat tomorrow

  I guess I should also add that I get to hear baby's heartbeat tomorrow. I'm still waiting on my Harmony results which might be adding to my rain cloud.

  I had a wonderful birthday weekend. It was relaxing and I spent it in yoga pants with my favorite people. Homemade mac&cheese one night, pizza and dvr'd golden globes the next.

  I am feeling amazingly better today.
  DD has yet to get any of my sickies (knock on wood).
  We (DH) got quite a few home improvements done yesterday.
  My parents have the day off, so we're going to go visit them later!
  
  It's actually a pretty good day over here!

  I just ate a huge rice krispy treat (from our cafeteria - far better than packaged) after I had my healthy lunch of Panera Lentil soup. Balanced, right? Justification - I'm likely going to go to the gym this PM AND I don't get to eat anything until after my 11:30 surgery tomorrow. So, gotta make up for those calories somewhere...

  
  

  Got to see baby today! They weren't able to get the NT Scan reading, given baby's unhelpful position, but I'm honestly uncharacteristically at peace with that. I don't even feel compelled to try to reschedule it, even though I'm not outside of the "readability window." Onward!

  TTC Since 11/10 due to Unexplained IF

  Slamar3, it was my birthday weekend, too! I had leftover chocolate cake for breakfast and it was amazing. Also, I think I'm nesting already. I cleaned out the closet (something I've been putting off for 12+ months) and sorted a bunch of baby clothes from my other two children. So productive!

  Here are some awesome things about today/this week (for me) so far:

  • The Ohio State/Oregon game is tonight
    
  • My Taco Bell cashier gave me a couple dozen packets of hot sauce when I told her it helped my MS
  • The precipitation stopped here!!! Finally!!!  It is above freezing!!!
  • Valentine's Day is a month-ish away - that means lots more chocolate in stores
  • 67 days until spring officially starts!

  Right now the only joke I have is trying to fit into my old skinny jeans with the current bloat/blump levels.  Happy Monday!

  1. I'm officially 14 weeks today. That makes me really happy.

  2. This weekend was relaxing. Hubby and I bought Lego Marvel Heroes and had a blast playing it together. Yes, we are 12.

  3. I'm having pizza for lunch. Which is SO EXCITING.

  Tomorrow we have our NT scan and get to see him/her for the first time! We haven't heard a heartbeat or seen anything yet, so we're super excited (and nervous) for tomorrow!

  I'm also officially 14 weeks today which is making this Monday so much happier. I also just found out the bloodwork from my first trimester screening was good (along with a good scan) so I'm feeling very grateful for that as well. Also working on planning a babymoon trip. We're doing something different- renting a house and inviting some couples we adore for one last child-free vacation. (DH and I will likely still do a smaller getaway with just the two of us as well.) So I'm really excited about that since we had to cancel Christmas travel plans due to bed rest. I am just having a good day despite the fact that its a rainy and gloomy day in New York.

  It's my first day back at work after 3 weeks off, which is a bit of a drag, but I realized how much I missed my awesome students. They are so much fun, and I really like being around them.

  I have had a no-fun-busy-crazy-frustrating day at work and I logged on for a bump break because I still have way more to do before I go home but couldn't muster any motivation...and then I saw, "Monday Positives" and thought, Oh my goodness, I really can't stomach a bunch of rainbows and puppy dogs bullshit right now...but clicked anyway.  And reading through all this fun stuff actually made me feel a million times better.  And helped me decided what I'm going to cook for dinner: fudgy brownies!

  
  

  And my positive is that we couldn't really decide on a babymoon and I wasn't really excited about anywhere.....until yesterday!  I think we are going to a fancy bed/breakfast with a spa and indoor pool and I'm going to get a maternity massage!

  Glad you got to see your baby! My husband and I took our honeymoon in Seattle this past October. Anytime someone mentions the Seahawks it just makes me think of Mighty-O Donuts and I get super hungry. (They do football themed donuts on game day.)
