grrrrrr....ice and pregnancy

meganmarieCA

Against my wishes, I've been convinced by MH and my sister that going anywhere today is a really bad idea for an 8-month pregnant woman hauling a really big toddler.  Owen and I started a music class almost a month ago, missed half the first class due to cleaning off the car, missed the second class because Owen was sick, the third class was cancelled for snow, and now we're missing the fourth class because I'm stuck here.  SonuvaB.  This sucks.

At least I'll finally get the valentine decorations up...

Man, that really does suck! I'm hoping that snarky little groundhog is right, and spring is going to show up asap and you and Owen will be able to get out of the house and go to music class! Hang in there!

I feel for you! I thanked my lucky stars that last year wasn't that bad during the winter. I can barely walk in snow/on ice when I'm not pregnant! Least it's sunny outside, you and Owen can sit by the window and get some sunshine. I've been making Caroline play in the sunniest rooms just b/c it helps me!

I hear you!  I have yet to take Veronica out for a walk because it is either too flipping cold, too windy, or too snowy. Poor kid has spent her whole life in the house!

Boooo. But, gotta agree, I don't want to see my MM falling on no ice

It stinks to miss music class again but I think you made the right call.  Better to be safe than sorry!

That does stink, but  best to be safe!  We were lucky that we didn't get any of that ice, just snow.

I decided today that this is definitely NOT the winter to be enormously pregnant.  We can have our own little pity party here on the Nest.

Yeah, I planned the timing of my pregnancy to avoid being big in the summer, but didn't think about how the winter would be...  I still know I made the right decision, since DH is a teacher and we'll have the summer off together with our munchkin.

 YakTrax have been my savior this winter.  I wear them to and from work every day, just to be safe.  DH got mine at Olympia Sports - ~$20, totally worth it!
