  • So happy my Mom finally arrived from the States. I really needed her help organizing! And she's been ironing and cooking so we don't have to.  B)
  • Making progress toward labor makes me happy today! It may be small but it's better than nothing!!

  • My dad had emergency surgery last week and it's never easy with them being 1000 miles away. But he was cleared by his doctor and is on the mend. Even though he's in good health, the drs don't want him driving long distance, so now my mom will fly up next week to be here with me for delivery and my dad will come up a month later, to give himself time to rest and recoup a little more. Not what I was hoping for, but knowing they will both be here together eventually makes me happy. And knowing we will all be spending Thanksgiving together makes me even happier.

    +1 for stool softeners @Kaytee1087. PP Poops have been delightful (not Sarcasm)

    guys,I just made chocolate chip pumpkin bread for the first time this season and I couldn't be happier. It's SOOO good.
    yes, I'll take a loaf... thanks for offering (hahaha). Seriously though... any interest in sharing that recipe?
  • @bnsmith85 I made 2 loafs and feel like I should've made more because 1 loaf is already gone lol.
    The recipe I used was: https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/contest-winning-chocolate-chip-pumpkin-bread
    however I added 1/2tsp of nutmeg as well, milk chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet, and substituted the oil for coconut oil.
