AW Thursday
What do you have to AW about this week?
DH and I finished our landscaping this weekend!!! It looks great! I'm so glad that we finally got it done!!! All I have left to do is to plant my tulips... I need to do that ASAP! (which means, as soon as the rain stops, lol)
Re: AW Thursday
I booked the last place we needed for our honeymoon. I am really excited about our stay in Cinque Terra....I think it's going to be just gorgeous!

All of your travel plans are making me SUPER jealous!!! That looks like a ton of fun! I'm sure it will be a once in a lifetime trip!!!

Thanks.
It all still seems a little surreal to me. When you find yourself getting jealous, just remember what I went through to get here.... It has been a long road, and many times I never thought I would get the opportunity to be this happy. I feel lucky and blessed.
Looks amazing! We loved the Cinque Terra on our honeymoon. You will have an amazing time!
The only thing I have this week is I fly home today to meet with my potential new boss tomorrow. Fingers crossed she likes me.
Wow! That looks awesome. You are going to have so much fun!
You are going to have a blast and all the obstacles your had to go through will make it all the sweeter!
The table for our foyer was delivered and DH put it together last night. I like it and LOVE the fact that it's another thing done in our house. This place is finally starting to feel like home even though there are a TON more things we'd like to do to it.
And it's not much of an AW but my due date is tomorrow and I have a doctor appointment today. I'm anxious to see if there's been any progress and what our next steps will be. I haven't felt like there's been much progress. Fingers crossed - I'd rather things progress naturally than have medical intervention!
Wow! That looks amazing - you guys will have to take tons of pictures so I can live vicariously through you! Should be an amazing honeymoon.
*edit - that's supposed to be a gold star.
There will ALWAYS be a ton of stuff to do to the house, unless you have it completely renovated by someone. I've been living in my house for, geez, 3 years come the end of this month, and I constantly look around and think about all the stuff that needs to be done. Houses, I have learned, are an endless project.
lol, yeah the gold star has never worked

Wow, it looks so pretty there! I would be super excited too!
My main AW is that I actually have a couple minutes to nest! It's been pretty tough to find a minute to even eat, but today is going good so far. Other baby related aw's... after finding out that Ryan was tongue-tied last week and getting that all taken care of, he has become a great nurser. Oh, and how could I forget - I am officially wearing real pants. Very exciting!
how's the transition going for you?
I AWed yesterday, so I'll stay out of it today
You all have great AWs!
@ kristinandbill - good luck at your doc. appt!
@ jennic22 - Nice to have you back! Ryan is SO cute!
Your trip is going to be fabulous! I couldnt help but chuckle at some of the English on the website there
Lucky you! Can your DH come to my house and clean? Please and thank you!
Good luck at the Dr's appointment. I hope your little one decides to come out on his/her own soon!
Two great AWs!
Bronco - the transition has gone smoother than I could've hoped for. The first day he was pretty resistant to the bottle and generally fussed/cried a lot but yesterday he ate all 6 bottles that I sent and was pretty happy. He stays with my sister M-Th and at home with MIL on Fridays so tomorrow will be the real test lol.
Welcome back and I am glad things are going good with Ryan but I am so jealous only 2 weeks and you are in "real pants"! I think it took me months to get in my real pants...
Good luck today..... I think if I remember correctly Jennic had an appt one day and that weekend she went into labor, so maybe you will get lucky too!
Great AW's ladies!
- Booger - your H is awesome, that must be a great feeling to have a clean house.
- Jennic - glad to have you back! So glad that Ryan is nursing better now too.
My AW is BR. I went for my 16w appointment today and heard a healthy and strong heartbeat. Everything is going well. I scheduled our anatomy scan for November 10th and that's when we find out what we are having!

I agree with Maggie. What a once in a lifetime trip! That hotel looks amazing. I can't even imagine the views from that place. I'm so happy that things are all coming together for you. You definitely deserve to feel lucky and blessed.
Oooooh!! Is this for a job interview then? Have you already spoken with the woman? Good luck!!
