Weekend Wins!

What went well over the weekend?  Nothing is too small, shaving totally counts.

  • We left our 3yo with my in laws on Friday and are kid free for a whole week! Particularly big this weekend since we actually got several errands run (6 stores in 2 hours? no kid, no problem!), finally started some baby prepping, and generally are just enjoying the quiet. And adult TV. And being able to curse out loud. And eating when / where we want.

    I managed to wrestle my Snoogle cover back on. It's been out of commission for a few weeks --- I washed the cover and the thought of putting it back on made me want to punch a small child. I can't use it coverless because HELLO DISCHARGE, but I finally worked up the courage to put on the cover this weekend. I'm so much more comfortable with it!
    I did that the first couple of times. It was terrible putting that thing back on. Now I just throw the whole thing in the washer/dryer once a week. It takes up almost the whole washer so I wash it alone but it fluffs up nicely, dries in a few minutes and I don't have to wrestle with it to put the cover on.

  • Thscary - i looked everywhere online and no one seems to have the Oregon trail game yet. I did find Machi Koro at Target on clearance ($15) which is a really fun card game
    Me: 32 DH: 31
    TTC #2 since January 2018
    Baby #1 DD  Born 8/25/2016

  • Took DD to Walmart (and I maintained my cool - a huge win for me) and got most of her back 2 school clothes and supply shopping done. DH and I saw Jason Bourne and are getting better at sexy time without the awkward from baby and belly. I'm sure the awkward will be changing once baby gets here but for now it's getting better. And I shaved! The real win was finding a nice patch of longer leg hair that I'm not hitting as I can't bend with sciatic pain. Hope DH didn't see or feel it :/
    Me - 33  DH - 36
    DD 10/4/02
    DS due 9/28/16

  • @ahackett1990 we watched an entire movie this weekend and I didn't have to get up to pee once! I was so irrationally proud of myself. I almost wet the bed last night though, when I woke up bursting with baby pressing on my bladder to top it off. You win some you lose some I guess...

  • @kosmo86 its exclusive to target, but my local store doesn't have it and it can't be ordered online. I have my name and number in with the local target to give me a call when they get it in (which according to their website they already have in stock). So frustrating 
  • Saturday DH and I had a bit of a lazy lie in morning, then he was super gungho to go to the baby stores in town so we wandered around those, and ended up finding an awesome sale on Funky Fluff cloth diapers at a normally very expensive boutique store, so we loaded up on those, which means when my online order comes in we are set for diapers! Then we went to the lake and Lordy, do I ever love swimming right now, it takes such a load off my back. Sunday I did absolutely nothing, and it was glorious. We're housesitting at my moms place right now, and it stays so nice and cool here I might never leave.

  • Took a 2.5mi hike with the dog Saturday morning. Laid around the house for a bit. Showered & shaved. Actually got to use my pool for the 3rd time this summer - and basically floated around for 2hrs without interruption. Worked my 2nd to last shift (until baby arrives) at my part time job Sunday - which required me to be on my feel for 6hrs, and it actually wasn't that terrible (I had two weeks off prior to yesterday), and husband cleaned the house while I was out!
  • @PoodleDoodleOoo - I feel like a front row spot at MOA anytime is a win! lol

  • To all those getting busy this weekend:


    I also had sex and I didn't mind it!! It wasn't anything fantastic, and was a bit awkward. I have to re-use this one cause it's so accurate:


    I also survived not one, but two baby showers despite the mugginess (one for me and one for a friend) and also found a sweet sweet front-row parking spot at the mall when I went to pick up some Aden + Anais swaddle blankets from Nordstroms. If you've ever tried to go to the Mall of America in the afternoon on Saturday you know this is a big deal!

    AND I took a 30 minute nap on SUnday and did 70% of the dirty dishes. As DH said "that's a passing grade! Can't expect anything more than 70% from you here on out!" Love that man!
    hahahaha i love the kitty getting it on, such truth!!!

    I give you props for MOA period when pregnant. I can bearly tolerate it not pregnant, I get so nauseous. No way am I going to try it pregnant.

     i finally got to order chairs for our house. They shipped yesterday! I will be super happy to have a place to sit that I can get out of and not hurt
  • We got most of our new condo painted, had the floors done, and started moving a few things in. Exhausting but I'm so excited to finally be making progress, I can put up with a week or so of total exhaustion! Plus, I can always play the pregnancy card and take breaks while everyone else is working :)
  • Kept my heeled sandals on my entire baby shower and my feet didn't even swell until afterwards! Score!
