  • Going shopping with MIL tomorrow for my shower outfit (she asked if she could treat me to it!), BBQ at the IL's Sunday and Monday will be driving up north about an hour to spend some time with my cousin, who is having a scheduled c-section October 3rd for her 2nd boy.

  • @slartybartfast i saw the Dixie Chicks a few weeks ago in nashville and the show was fantastic! Love them!

    We're spending the long weekend working on the nursery - painting tomorrow and putting furniture together Sunday and Monday.
  • You guys re doing fun stuff! We are going to take it easy, and go school clothes shopping at the outlet mall. I've learned they have great sales this weekend, and both of my girls could use a nice 1st day outfit even though they have enough clothes. 
    I could use some maternity pants with the stretchy belly cover! My low elastic waist maternity pants feel like a vice on my belly :/

  • I'm making pumpkin cream cheese muffins a priority this weekend. That's it. 
  • @slartybartfast I saw the DC a few months ago and they were awesome! 

    We finally have a semi relaxing weekend. Still need to clean, and I want to move the nursery furniture around and hang curtains and pictures but there will be no major projects like building furniture or painting.

    Sunday we're going to a friends for a pool party. I said at the last one I was done being in a bathing suit, but it's happening again. I don't like feeling so out there, but also don't want to go out and buy a tankini that won't get worn again. 


  • My sister's birthday was yesterday so we're having girl's night tonight and celebrating. I'm making her favorite meal for dinner and have cake and ice cream.... mmmmm

    No definitive plans the rest of the weekend. Football, reading, resting hopefully, maybe some cooking

  • We were going to be doing lots of swimming in our backyard pool until we found it looking nasty when we got home from vacation  (just a weekend). What do we pay a pool company for? Oh yeah, to keep the pool perfect! Now we will be doing chores. Thanks pool company.

  • We are waiting for a furniture delivery tomorrow and that's probably all of the excitement that's in store for us.  I'm glad to have 3 days off though.  I need some nap time.
  • @slartybartfast oh god carrot cake. It's like you're speaking my love language 
  • My Friday has been fabulous...!

    It's super rainy and soggy day. DH got out of school early because of the hurricane weather. We had a nice lunch, came home, (ahem) had awesome sex, and have been cuddling and eating Oreos while watching all of the Jaws movies. Must have been too good, though, because now my sciatica is on FIRE omg.

    Tomorrow DH has a game tournament, and I'm going to take advantage of some of the Labor Day sales.

    No idea for the rest of the weekend...but it's off to a good start. :)
  • All of you. Stop. It. With the pumpkin cream cheese carrot cake. That is all I want now!!!  Someone get me a recipe stat!
    I'm cranky as hell tonight. DH wanted to go out to eat but I felt tired and with all the rain (hurricane) I just didn't want to go. So we argued for an hour over take our. I wanted Mexican but DD1 wanted BBQ. DD1 won, and it was awful. Our regular BBQ pit has gone downhill ever since the owner unexpectedly died last year. They are trying but it doesn't work. 
    I do however have two giant Cheesecake Factory cheesecakes my neighbor dropped off.  I'll trade someone a slice for a stuffed pumpkin cupcake.
    tomorrow the long awaited bunk beds are supposed to come! So we will be disassembling the current bed tomorrow morning and converting it back to crib and decorating the rest of the day. Not sure where the rest of the long weekend will take us!
  • My in-laws are on their way to spend the weekend! They're driving from Iowa and bringing us a bassinet. I love my in-laws so I'm super excited. They're also bringing some food to grill that DH always requests. There are a few projects (staining the deck and replacing part of the fence) but it's been rainy so we may not get to that. 

    @slartybartfast I saw the DC when I was in high school, before local venues & radio stations shut them out. Loved them then, would love to see them again!!! 

    @ajstevenson I hope my MIL wants to go shopping! She said she bought the baby one outfit bc she "couldn't resist"....I'm like...lady, stop resisting. BUY ALL THE THINGS FOR THE BABY!

  • :( oh man. My mom just called and my grandpa probably won't survive the weekend. He's 94, and been slowly going downhill for a couple of years. But just in the last 24 hrs he doesn't know who we are, is having trouble breathing, and can't eat. I feel so insanely sad. I would normally feel sad, but I can't control my crying with all my hormones raging. Sorry to be a Debbie downer, I just know it's going to be a rough weekend.

  • @yellingbanana So sorry to hear about your grandpa! Many healing thoughts headed your way.
  • @yellingbanana I'm so sorry. I'll be sending healing thoughts his way and say a prayer for your family.

    Yesterday was cray cray not knowing if Hermine would ruin travel plans, but our plane was delayed only an hour so SCORE! So good to be home.

    Tonight football game with friends. How the hell did they get me to agree to this? I'm so wiped from travel and my legs are killing me from cramping all night, and the weather is gross (thanks leftovers from Hermine). Blah!

    Tomorrow, no clue. I want an in day but DH and I need to go food shopping. No foods in the house (he ate it all while I was on my trip).

    Monday we're doing something with my parents since my dad was a jerk and didn't want to do anything last night when I got home from my trip.

  • @yellingbanana I'm so sorry to hear about your grandpa. 

    Dh left this morning to go camping with his parents. It's just overnight but I really had no interest in going. I'm staying home and cleaning and my friend is suppose to visit for a bit today. 

    I need to go to Hobby Lobby and see if I can find a few things for the nursery and I need to finish his curtains. 

    I also need to do some grading before Tuesday.

  • @yellingbanana ugh that is so hard.. I am so sorry. 
    So many hugs to you and your family this weekend❤️
  • I flew back from Oklahoma yesterday and it was good timing - they had an earthquake last night!

    Today we're watching college football, then going to a baseball game.

    Tomorrow and Monday all of our plans revolve around what meals we're making.  Super relaxed weekend here.


    @slartybartfast I'm jealous you saw the Dixie chicks - that sounds so fun!
