Re: Moms with Toddlers - 8.22.16
We've been doing great! Had the absolute best summer :-D I'm having to adjust a bit as far as having DH pick him up at times but nothing major
Have you gotten anything new for this new LO that you're excited about?
Our new carseats just arrived yesterday and they fit in the Click Connect stroller from DS, so we're pumped about that!
Rants/Raves/Questions:
Not really that I can think of.... some late 2nd/3rd tri symptoms are popping up, not thrilled but knew it was coming
Anything you want to add/share?
DS starts early learners preschool tomorrow!! I'm gonna be a mess, lol. It's only on Tues/Thurs from 0830-1230 but still.... I'm so excited for my baby, he can't wait!! I'm gonna have to post AW pics somewhere..... ;-)
Bonus Question: Are you going to do anything 'special' for your toddler before/when/immediately after your new LO arrives?
Definitely!! Not entirely sure what all yet, but def a few things... he'll get a gift from baby at the hospital.... looking for ideas!
Um. I don't remember this past week at all. I love my baby and I've survived another week of pregnancy so I assume it went alright.
Have you gotten anything new for this new LO that you're excited about?
not new but we dug out the clothes bins and I went through them and pulled out the newborn and 0-3 month stuff. We get all our clothes as hand-me-downs from my cousins and there are some things that DS was the wrong size for during the time of year. SUCH AS A NEWBORN SIZED SANTA SUIT!!!

DS has his first day of childcare tomorrow. I feel crazy about it. It's kindercare. He's still on 2 naps but they only do one. I'm just kinda freaking out all together.
Bonus Question: Are you going to do anything 'special' for your toddler before/when/immediately after your new LO arrives?
Nothing out of the ordinary but literally everything is special with him. I mean, the kid acts like every part of every day is exciting and funny.
How've you been doing balancing a toddler(s) and your pregnancy this past week? had a nasty case of nausea a few days this weekend, but it's getting better now that the humidity broke and we can go outside more.
Have you gotten anything new for this new LO that you're excited about? some artwork for the walls and clothes. I got a free travel system for review that was a nice bonus!
Rants/Raves/Questions: I love this age. He is so much stinkin fun and learning so many new things every day it blows my mind. He's starting to count and recognize letters, sings songs, and has some killer dance moves. He's also starting to understand the whole concept of an actual baby being in mommy's belly.
Anything you want to add/share? I'm going to shed a lot of tears when it's not just him and I anymore.
Bonus Question: Are you going to do anything 'special' for your toddler before/when/immediately after your new LO arrives? Probably have a gift to give him from the baby and for him to give something to his new sibling. Definitely try to have as many experiences as a family of three before the newbie gets here.
DS made it to the first day of Preschool today! So proud of and excited for him, missing him a ton
My husband went to Vegas for four days for his 30th birthday this week. I hope he enjoyed it because he's never leaving again!
Have you gotten anything new for this new LO that you're excited about?
Not yet! We have bought her some clothes but nothing too exciting. Still looking for that perfect coming home onesie. I'm holding off until we get DS room all finished to set up her nursery before buying a bunch a stuff.
Rants/Raves/Questions:
Uhhh nope!
Anything you want to add/share?
Nope.

We are signing up up for gymnastics classes at a gym right by our house that start right after that baby comes. Mommy is going to take him for 45 minutes of "mommytime" without the new baby. I'll be able to nurse, then go and be home within an hour so I think this will be a great way to be able to give him some focused attention.
Have you gotten anything new for this new LO that you're excited about? Not yet. I'm about to start on the nursery and I'm so excited about designing it.
Rants/Raves/Questions: Nope

Bonus Question: Are you going to do anything 'special' for your toddler before/when/immediately after your new LO arrives? I hadn't really thought about it, so probably not.
