  • Decent! The weather is starting to finally cool off so we can enjoy the park and some family walks. DS has his first day of soccer yesterday. Watching a bunch of 2 year olds play soccer is quite comical! Taking DS for a swim this afternoon. Hoping it helps my back and hips feel better.  
  • Yesterday we went to a 2 year old’s birthday party and then a wedding. Busy, long day and this mama is tired!

    Today has been a much needed recovery day. Had a lazy morning quilting and listening to audiobooks. This afternoon I spent trying to get ready for the week, making lunch ahead, cutting up fruit for snacks, and working on baby shower thank you notes. 
  • At my appointment Friday I realized I am on track to gain almost as much as I did with my twins. MH’s cousins are in town, so we went out to dinner and despite that realization, I ordered chicken fingers and mozzarella sticks... and then came home and made a milkshake. I wonder why I’m looking at 43 lbs this time.. oh well - I’ve lost 30+ lbs twice before (one kid related, the other college related). Dinner turned into a late night for the kids and we got home about an hour after bedtime.

    Saturday was MH’s aunt’s birthday party. It was fun, but another late night for the kids. Today we went to a pool party at our friend’s house. They live a little over an hour away and we’re on our way home now, on track for a 3rd late bedtime for the kids. The friend also does swim lessons for the boys on Mondays and asked about us not coming tomorrow. I was going to tell her we may not make it because of all the late nights for the boys, but since it’s easier for her since everybody else has already cancelled, we won’t be going.  Kind of happy that we’ll get to have a lazy Monday tomorrow with no guilt about skipping lessons. I’m exhausted and definitely need it!

  • @jemmerjams I was 33 weeks on Friday, and the coupon for BBB came that day
  • @sammierose464 ah no, I'm 33 weeks today lol!! Bad timing hahaha
  • it was a HOT weekend.  Ended up getting carted to the medical tent while out at the air show.  Way too much sun.  Shade and an ice pack helped, but I feel foolish for not listening to my body and getting in the shade quicker.  Both boys were ready to go home too, so they were happy to ride with me and share my ice pack, lol.  Other than that, the show was amazing and the rest of the weekend was pretty chill.  Just cleaning and grocery shopping.

  • @KFrob sounds like my Thursday! I only have 3 pairs of maternity yoga pants and I peed in 2 of them...

  • @sammierose464 I stole a pair of DH's boxers since I ran out of bottoms and then no less than a min later peed them....   I finally gave in and put on a giant pad.  Of course then all the pee stayed where it was supposed too......
  • @jellybelly114 that looks like such a beautiful shower!
  • we camped this weekend and, in spite of bringing plenty of water and knowing i needed it, i managed to get dehydrated and spent a few hours on fluids yesterday to get me back to where i should be (and calm things down a bit) and am back home now. i am still having some contractions but nothing i can't manage at this point, and i am only slightly dilated so they don't seem to be doing much yet. 
    we did cancel a trip out of town for next weekend because with my others i was never dilated at all until it was truly go time, but still hoping that we hold out the full 40 weeks. (baby is measuring way ahead and they have no real concerns at this point, but the big kids go back to school next week and september is always such a whirlwind that i would really like to get through it before baby joins us)! 
  • We were going to go to the Peach Festival friday night, but traffic was insane so we opted for patio dinner instead with friends. Saturday we had a BBQ for my buddy's 30th. Yesterday was a super lazy day....I had so much I wanted to do and barely got to any of it. I did manage to get first coat of paint on the nursery closet, and a few loads of laundry.

    I started going through all our baby stuff in storage, and did a load of fabric to be washed....car seat fabric, swing and bouncer fabric, it all gets so dusty and smelly in storage...ugh.
  • Friday we did our hospital tour (which DH and I were both in awe over - it's beautiful and we appreciated all the information they gave us and amenities they provide) and then went to my parents' for a belated birthday dinner celebration for DH. My mother sent us home with 8 tupperware containers full of chicken parm, eggplant parm, bruschetta, and chocolate cake, which made me so happy. 

    Saturday, DH was volunteering to be a range safety officer at the local gun range so I took myself to the zoo, then went browsing/shopping for a small island or kitchen cart to make a coffee corner in my kitchen. I went to Home Goods and Target and didn't find anything. I shifted gears to fall/Halloween and hit up Michaels and Dollar General for some decorations. Then I went home and made dinner. By that point I was wiped so we watched a movie and hung out at night. Oh, during my shopping I also tried to pry open the doors at Spirit Halloween despite the clear sign saying they are "opening soon" hahaha. I am ready for fall. 

    Sunday, DH and I cleaned the bathrooms, swept and vacuumed the house, and did laundry. Then we went grocery shopping before heading to a co-ed baby shower for a friend.
