Re: Weekly Randoms (Week of 12/16)
I started my reformer pilates class this weekend & have another class Thursday! My tush & thighs are so sore but in the best way haha I'm hoping it helps with birth and postpartum.

@miss.sally I'm glad H is getting mobility and some independence back!
@chichiphin I love Pilates. I so wish I had a place that offered it near work so I could do that on my lunch breaks!
@momoftoddlers Yay for enjoying the parties!

I'm looking forward to the school's Christmas break, mostly because DD will be home from school and she can help DH out with DS. DH might be able to get more sleep during the day.. which is always good, because then he's in a better mood overall.
I went to a work Christmas party, and, though the terrible coworker claimed she would be there, she wasn't - so it turned out to be an OK time, as far as work parties go. I was pretty much the only one not drinking so it was kind of funny to watch them all get sillier as the night went on. The party ended at 10 pm - just in time, really, if it would have went on any longer they would have started making fools of themselves.
@miss.sally Our closest TJs is 45 mins away, or more when there is traffic. I am jelly of your TJs trip, is what I'm saying, but I am sure my mom and I will go when I'm up there for two weeks--must closer to her place. Soooo that'll be nice. I'm glad there's a light at the end of the tunnel.
I JUSTTTT submitted final grades! I'll be traveling "home" for the holidays starting Thurs. I am flying in & then DH is driving up with the dogs. I feel relieved at having submitted final grades, but also this means I can't ignore allll the things I've been ignoring bc I've been putting all my time into grading (except briefly yesterday when I went to BWW to watch the Eagles win & then DH & I went out at night Fri. and Sat. nights for a soiree and then ArtWalk--but I can't grade nonstop *all day* anyway.
@EmilyLove25 Your weekend sounds magical!
AFM, DH put together the crib for new baby this weekend, and it's been fun seeing DS make the connection that there will in fact be a new baby here soon.
I needed to make a Target run, and DH said the magic words, "Do you just want to go by yourself?" YES! So I had an hour to myself to buy what we needed, but also spent WAY too much on stocking stuffers. But it was lovely!
For now, I'm just trying to make it through the work week. Our email and sharepoint are transitioning with our new(ish) company, so all our main means of communication are down, which is super annoying! I have another U/S on Wednesday, so I'm looking forward to seeing how baby brother is doing.

@mrsvp614 target alone is the best!! Also you’re awesome for getting your crib set up already!

@silverhope, my midwife didn't say anything about what I should or shouldn't eat before the test, but I tried to keep it in check a bit on my own knowing that it might skew my results (but caved on the rolos.) I ate sensibly otherwise on that day. so idk why they didn't tell me to avoid anything.. maybe they wanted a reading of how their patients 'usually' eat? with my other 2 pregnancies, they never told me to avoid anything before the test either.. and with those pregnancies, I passed the test easily without watching what I ate.
@miss.sally, hope you were able to get some good rest!
I'm like, there is NO possible way they didn't realize that, right? I've had to think of every possible nickname, initial arrangement, etc, when thinking of name options.

@miss.sally I’ve noticed that about the Frozen clothes too. So annoying that we haven’t gotten to the point of more gender neutral. Even a lot of the girl stuff is over the top frilly and not my style.
@kantobean Glad you passed!
@momoftoddlers I just got in to my Dad's house last night and there are 12 million cookies here. How will we resist!
AFM: I'm in south jersey. It's cold, but it was boiling hot and INSANELY dry in the third floor attic bedroom last night that I stay in. My little humidifier didn't do much! But I'm happy to be here & looking forward to.... xmas shopping!!!!! Which I still desperately need to do!!!! Ahhhh!!!! And having cookies for breakfast.
Flying pregnant was kind of not fun. I was so fidgety. I have... 4 more flights between now and Jan. 15, and then no more flying for me until I give birth. I have to fly home (a flight with a stopover then another flight) and then I'm being flown to a job interview in early Jan. (2 short flights, one plane each). Take-offs and landings were the worst, but luckily one of the flights was only an hour and the other ~an hour and a half (though actually slightly shorter). The trip back down will be a little shorter & I'm going to indulge myself in an aisle seat this time. I hate paying to choose a seat, but I think it's necessary. I didn't HAVE to pee on the slightly longer flight when I had the window seat, but it would have been nice to get up and walk around-- I would have if I had the aisle seat, like I did on the shorter flight--I got up to pee just to get up. Anyway. It all was fine, but it just makes me unnecessarily nervous (even though baby moved around like crazy most of the time) so I'm looking forward to that being over. That being said, has to be better than 23 hours (each way) in a car (for my trip to NJ) or 7.5 hours in a car (each way) for my job interview in Jan.!
One parent at the performance said to me “I guess this is the last time we’ll see you for the year!” LOL at thinking I was giving birth in the next two weeks and that I could take 5 months of leave time! I said I would be back in January and be working basically until the day I give birth!

last night, a neighbor boy was knocking on my door nervously and I almost didn't answer because he's gotten so tall I hardly recognized him (he hung out with DD all the time when they were little.) he had a little box in his hand for DD for Christmas. It was adorable.. he must have gotten her a little ring or something (I didn't hover over her or watch her open it or anything) .. but, yikes. she's 13. it's starting.
@kantobean happy Hanukkah!
@treetop19 now I need to know what's in that box! Update us please!!
