Confession Monday. Go!
Sometimes I wish H didn't follow me on Twitter so that I could talk smack.
Not on him, but on my Sarah Palin rally attending side of the family,
**face palm**
Re: Confession Monday. Go!
ditto Yahpee only my SIL follows me on twitter. my confession is that my ILs are driving me up the wall. Our wedding photog offered us a free family session and I have in turn offered it to my ILs to do a group photo for ILs 50th anni this Jan. SILs cannot seem to agree on anything. I'm completely over it.
We did that last Xmas and it was a complete pain in the ass. I finally had to tell everyone what to wear, where to go and just handle the details myself. In the end though the shoot turned out awesome and my ILs really appreciated it.
Turned out to be worth the hassle in the end.
I hope it all comes together for you! I feel ya though. Ugh.
Ugh. I have so many. Most of them aren't really appropriate for public sharing on the internet. Let me think.
I am going to the Gap tonight for the 40% off sale, even though the girls have plenty of clothes.
After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!
but they grow really fast! this is completely justified.
I bought maternity jeans because I can't stop eating and my clothes are tight. I might have to start wearing them just for the fact that they don't have a button.
where did you end up taking them and what did you guys wear? my SIL just suggested Gardenwalk for a location.
I currently weigh 205 pounds.
I know that 15 of it is pg weight and that there are more pounds coming. The sucky part is that I wish it was due to eating ice cream and cake every night, but it isn't. My body is just doing what it wants to do & it's hard to not be in complete control.
ETA: I totally made H turn around while the nurse took my weight at my last appointment.My divorce was final on Friday and I couldn't be happier (although I still have to deal with him. Ugh)
Don't get me wrong...I never wanted to be a divorced single mom, but we're in a much better place.
We went to a really pretty park in Long Beach. Let me look up the name and I'll email you the deets and stuff.
**hugs**
I remember how hard this was! Hang in there lady!! The day I delivered I weighed 211(!!) and I had started at 160...uh, did I mention that I am only 5 ft tall? (!!) It all finally came off for me, but I remember the helpless feeling fondly <hugs>
ETA: that should say not so fondly...lol
I'm sick of revising my stinking book. I feel like I'm never going to be done with it.
I have a goal of being done my the end of January, so we'll see how that goes.
I know less than half of my students' names.
During my entire pregnancy (and even now) I step on the scale backwards and request that the nurse not tell me my weight, just + or - what I was starting at my first appointment. I was able to tell how big I was getting by how my clothes fit.

H always weighs himself when I go to the Dr. The last time, the nurse joked around about writing his weight in my chart too so we could keep track. So of course we did. H was sad that he didn't remember his "pre-pregnancy" weight, but he is steadily gaining along with me... though not as fast as with #1. haha
I really want a pair of way too expensive boots that I know I can't get any time in the near future.

I didn't know about the sale, thanks! I just bought a bunch of maternity clothes that I've been putting off buying. It's nice to have pants that fit again
I call bass!
I'm still new around here and I get confused with the acronyms
what is MUD? ETA? there's so many! at least I figured out DH, DS, DD and FI... I hope I get the hang of it soon
I think there's a FAQ section somewhere around here - don't ask me where exactly though.
MUD= made up drama. someone is just trying to stir up someshit.
ETA= edited to add
