    1.  Why is it only Tuesday?
    2.  My random protein bar tasted pretty good, I'll accept that.
    3.  I have a dentist check up today.  Yay for clean teeth.
    4.  I will then buy coffee(to drink immediately) and candy for easter for my nieces/nephews.  Yay for dirty teeth.
    5.  Mr. O had no idea I am not supposed to have sushi, so he ate sushi while I ate soba, which was fiiiiine with me.
    6.  I just wondered why everyone posted 10 and then I read the INSTRUCTIONS, fail.  :)
    7.  Waiting until 8 weeks better not be too hard.  Only 3-4 more weeks to go.  Eeps.
    8.  I just remembered I have a coffee/dinner date with friend tomorrow---woo!
    9.  H's best friend is going to be a huge asset to us through this whole pregnancy, I'm happy for that.
    10.   I think I'm out of random things.

    @sheybre My IL's have a pool that I plan to spend A LOT of time at this summer. I imagine that at 5/6 months we'll have pretty decent-sized bellies.  I've looked around and found some reallllllllly cute maternity bathing suits

  • @ShallowSeas what places have you been looking? Send me in the right direction! 
    I can't imagine wearing a one-piece and having to pee every 10 minutes. And I don't know if wearing a two-piece is socially acceptable at that point? I mean, I'd probably rock it but other people might feel uncomfortable. I don't want to be "that mom" :D My last pregnancy, all major belly was had during the winter and fully covered.

    This, this, and this is where I have been looking.  A lot are one pieces which I agree could be a pain in the ass with the peeing-situation, but they also have cute 'tankini' type suits that don't like like they're from 2001.

  • 1) My stomach just growled super loud and my coworker looked at me and said "That was aggressive." I'm not even embarrassed
    2) My SIL is almost due and may go into labor this week.  I'm excited for my new niece, but extra excited since DH and I are waiting til after their LO is born to announce our BFP since we don't want to steal their moment (selfish? maybe a little)
    3) Um raw mushrooms are the most delicious thing ever today 
    4) DH is making jambalaya for dinner, so excited!
    5) All I can think about is food...
    6) I've been reading mixed things on tea in pregnancy, I'm pretty hooked on Celestial Seasonings sleepytime tea, but I don't know if it's bad for the LO in my belly
    7) MS hasn't kicked in yet but all of the cravings have, I can't decide if this is amazing or awful, but leaning towards amazing
    8) DH is more eager for a US then I am and asked me to call the doctor to move my appointment up to this Thursday, I have to work and if I take off mid day without advanced notice they will know something is up so I told him he has to wait
    9) Have I mentioned food?  Cause I like food
    10) Also exhaustion.  I could fall asleep standing up today.

  • 1) We're moving next month and I have so much to do. Ugh I need energy!
    2) We've finished our Netflix binge of Mad Men and I'm having withdrawals.
    3) My MIL is hosting Easter dinner on Sunday. She's a terrible cook. I offered to bring a few side dishes so I would be guaranteed edible food. I feel so bad, because she is so sweet.
    4) Our 6th wedding anniversary is on Saturday. Last year we did a 2 week Mediterranean cruise to celebrate our 5th. This year, I'll be lucky if we make it out for dinner.
    5) I'm excited to dye Easter eggs with our friends this weekend.
    6) My first order from Pink Blush Maternity should come this week.
    7) I want to go see Miracles from Heaven, but I've heard it's a tearjerker. Not sure the hormones can handle it.
    8) I'm obsessed with Cadbury Mini Eggs.
    9) I need to get a workout in today, I've been slacking.
    10) I miss my Mom. I wish she didn't live on the other side of North America.
  • 1) DS1 started using the potty this week! Yay for peer pressure from the older kids at daycare.
    2) I am actually going to miss diapers when we're out and about. Time to locate all the public restrooms.
    3) My dentist and his staff all now know I'm pregnant and I still haven't told any family. I feel kind of bad about that.
    4) @HomeyDontPlayThat What coffeemaker did you get? We use the Aeropress, but are ready for a slightly less hands on approach.
    5) I ordered the Clarisonic Mia 2 this week. Really hoping it curbs my breakouts this pregnancy.
    6) Welcome @jrussell16 !
    7) My favorite bra is lost somewhere in the house and it's driving me nuts.
    8) I have a Stitch Fix credit that is just wasting away. Not willing to get new clothes now that I won't be able to wear once I pop.
    9) It's almost time for my daily cup of coffee...And thanks to @AdmiralKitty I'm craving a beignet to go with it!
    10) My office should consistently be about 8 degrees warmer.

  • @ShallowSeas and @NordyMN89 - someone had told me to substitute jolly ranchers for preggie pops. I find they work really well. 

  • @mrs_hoyahoo

    we really liked the low key approach and reviews of this one. Safer for our toddler too. I was always so nervous he would reach up and grab the pot.

  • @mrs_hoyahoo my favorite bra is lost somewhere in the house too! It's so frustrating.
  • Thanks for the rec @HomeyDontPlayThat !

    Glad I'm not alone @jrussell16 :)

  • @mrs_hoyahoo I updated my Stitchfix to say that I was pregnant. It is part of your style profile. You even put your due date so they know how far along you are. 
  • 1) It was close but I didn't vomit at the pool today.
    2) I also didn't puke at the grocery store.
    3) It was nice and sunny during my swim.
    4) I'm watching the season finale of How to Get Away with Murder right now.  :cry:  It's still very TW!!!
    5) I'm anticipating tricking the cat into taking a nap with me again today.  It's going to be a good one.
    6) I got to watch live Women's Water Polo on YouTube today.  Yaaaay!  Olympic Qualifying event!  :smiley: 
    7) I am living on crackers and frozen foods right now, but at least it's food and it usually stays down.  I can't stand cooking right now.
    8) My shoulder held up very well in my swim today, which I was worried about given how sore it was after all the cleaning yesterday!
    9) my bathroom and kitchen are clean.
    10) I love blankets.

    @MrsDho11 - OMG to How to Get Away With Murder, I wish they had a TW at the start of the episodes! I was a puddle and never want to leave my house again. :(


  • @NordyMN89 - yeah.  I almost didn't even watch, but then I found out it was the finale.  I don't plan to watch season 3.

    2. I just ate almost an entire bag of yogurt covered craisins.

    5. I found these great pre-natal yoga videos on YouTube and have been doing them almost every day.

    7. DS is currently in his second nap of the day. I should be folding laundry and getting a head start on dinner.
    8. DH and I went to a 9 p.m. movie this weekend. We wanted to feel young and adventurous, but we just felt tired and like idiots for not taking advantage of sleeping time lol.
    9. I'm loving the weather this week — 70 degrees and sunny. Perfect.
    10. I'm going to get off my butt and go fold laundry now.
  • 1. I lovelovelove Fuller House! So much fun watching it on Netflix during my lunch break.
    2. I hope my fingers don't swell up so much I can't wear my rings this time around.
    3. Chik Fil A waffle fries are heaven.
    4. I'm registered to run a half marathon at Disney next month and I can't figure out if I should do it or not.
    5. It's supposed to be 85 degrees tomorrow and summer is about to kick my butt.
    6. Talking on the phone is my least favorite thing ever.
    7. There's only two episodes of Walking Dead left this season and I'm dreading who will die because I creepily think of the characters like they're my friends.
    8. How is it only Tuesday?!
    9. We bought a minivan this weekend and I'm giddy. Life is crazy.
    10. Every day I wake up and feel like I won the lottery when I think about this little person growing inside me.

  • 1. I am at a zoo in the midst of the worst nausea spell so far this pregnancy. It's apparently a contest... which smell will make me hurl first?!
    2. The camels are winning, but the zoo grill is a close second.
    3. My daughter is in one of the cute little Easter outfits that my MIL bought her and it's adorable.
    4. Everyone but me is riding the carousel now and I'm staring at the ground even though it's probably super cute because the spinning will make me hurl.
    5. I'm going to take a nap when we get home.
    6. I wish I could ride in the stroller for the walk back to the car.
    7. My MIL is apparently obsessed with giraffes and FIL won't stop making fun of her for it. She is not amused.

    10. Baby warthogs are flippin adorable.

  • 1. Reading about Cadbury eggs has made me really want them, but I already had sooo much sugar today.
    2. I worked 11 hours on 5 hours of sleep, but my project went live today! It was pretty successful.
    3. I have a feeling this is going to be the busiest year of my life thus far. 
    4. I desperately need to go hiking.
    5. My grandma's carrot cake cupcakes are tempting me from the fridge.
    6. It's funny how often pregnant ladies think about food, even when they have MS.
    7. We got good news at the vet today. We've known since August that our dog is in kidney failure, but the vet thinks her quality of life is still really good. I'm thankful for every day I have left with her.
    8. I can't wait for my next ultrasound on Friday. We're seeing family this weekend and it'll be hard not to tell them. Still have to wait 5 more weeks!
    9. Hulu is being dumb. Netflix is better quality, but I can't give up those Hulu shows even though it acts up all the time.
    10. I felt like I was going to die of thirst today. Ready for that symptom to get out of here.

    1. My cat is sitting next to me and she keeps glancing over at me with squinty eyes. I know she wants to climb on my chest and rub her gums on my face til I break out in hives. Such a weirdo.
    2. I let DH buy some video game and a subscription to play it online. We decided it's basically a work expense since he works nights and needs to stay up all night the night before. However, he's been playing it before work every afternoon during the 1-2 hours that I get to see him and it makes me sad
    3. I'm on the bump all the time though, so I guess I can't really say anything about his video games...
    4. Matcha lattes are amazing. Like drinking sweet, sweet alfalfa.
    5. I drove about 45 minutes round trip for a sandwich today.
    6. I completely fail at my fitbit challenges on days I don't work because all I want to do it sit on the couch and bump and watch netflix
    7. I told my grandma I'm pregnant again and she immediately went into a 10 minutes long rant about babies that are born addicted to opiates and have to go through withdrawal. It was weird. I think she thinks I'm using narcotic pain medication maybe. I'm not sure why.
    8. I have so much Walking Dead to catch up on since I missed a few weeks while traveling and then worked this weekend. I'm excited to binge watch it tomorrow when DH gets home from work!
    9. My Great Pyrenees took over the spot on the couch next to me where my cat was. He curls himself into an impossibly small donut for being such a big dog. Such a good cuddle buddy.
    10. I love Ten Things Tuesday. It's so much fun to get little glimpses into everyone else's lives! :)
