• Highs? Had fun at the baby shower yesterday and got a lot of reading done.
  
• Lows? I'm just really sick of DH always being gone watching football or hunting or some other crap on the weekends and I feel like all of the household chores and taking care of the dogs is on me. Yesterday I took them to a playdate at the park and when I got home I had to rush around to get ready for a baby shower and ended up being late b/c the dogs kept wanting to go outside and then they'd track mud everywhere and new dog had an accident on one of his blankets. Then I ended up getting water all over me from trying to stuff the blanket in the washer so I had to change my clothes. I just wanted to scream. I also counted 14 trips we made outside yesterday in the rain. We also had plans to watch a movie I've been waiting to watch Saturday night but it didn't happen since the game went in to overtime and he didn't get home until late. This is also after he was gone for 12 hours last Saturday for a "half day" hunt and I got stuck taking all the Christmas crap down as the dogs kept running off with the ornaments and it took me about 6 hours to get both trees and all the other decorations down.
  
• Eat/make anything good? Made a good Mexican casserole and had delicious cake pops at the shower yesterday.
  
• Watch anything good? Shameless
  
• Read anything good? Almost done the 5th Harry Potter.
  
• FFCs, vents, AWs, etc? I'm so sick of football talk. I can't wait for hockey to start this weekend!
  
• What are you looking forward to this week? Catching up on the new shows.

• Highs? I got to shop ALONE for like an hour yesterday morning. I had a $50 LOFT gift card and was hoping I would at least be able to find a sweater. Well, I got five new tops for a total of $77 dollars (so only $27 of my own money). They were having an awesome sale.
  
• Lows? Not enough sleep, as usual.
  
• Eat/make anything good? DH made me a cheeseburger yesterday, and it tasted pretty good but then I felt sick because I almost never eat beef.
  
• Watch anything good? Just football

• What are you looking forward to this week? The week ending.

Highs? Mani/pedi on Saturday. I haven't had either in almost two years.    Visiting with my Grandmother and Great Aunt/Uncle in VA yesterday.

Highs--Had a me day on Saturday, went and got my hair cut and colored and had lunch by myself. Having lunch by myself, with a PEOPLE magazine is one of my favorite things to do.

Lows--DS has been sleeping very crazily lately and it really threw him off all weekend.  Needless to say, he was a beast at times--but can't really complain if that is the only low!

Eat/Make Anything Good--Steak Nachos from Qdoba--YUM

Watch Anything Good--I have been on a constant replay of The Polar Express and Alice in Wonderland, so no.

Read Anything Good--Have made it halfway through Weird Maryland....I love it so much!

Vent--DH just got a stomach bug (today) and he is acting like a complete baby.  I guess typical men being sick, but it's not what I want to deal with today.

What are you looking forward to this week--Meeting a friend this weekend for lunch.  Haven't seen her since September and I love catching up on things.

• Highs?  We went to our first Tot Shabbat with the Cantor that married us.  DS had a blast and DH and I really just benefited from being in her presence given all of the stresses we're dealing with right now.  Think we're going to be committing to making services a more regular part of our month, which would be so great.
  
• Lows?  DH and I have been at each other's throats lately.  I'm so huge and uncomfortable and was put on a GD diet and meds recently to try and control my blood sugar and DS2's size, which seems to be on pace with DS1's.  Between my size and the sudden cutting of carbs there are days when just moving around hurts.  DH had to take an incredibly tough winter course to stay on pace for graduating this year, so he's been a real pill and very little help around the house.  My parents would usually be able to help out a little; but my poor grandmother fell and broke her hip and wrist last week and has been in the hospital recovering from surgery.  We've all been spending all of the time that we can there - but the pain meds combined with the usual "ICU psychosis" issues are making her a real mess.  My father and his brother and sister are not dealing with that well.
  
• Eat/make anything good?  Not really.
  
• Watch anything good?  DH is usually a Steelers fan and I'm not hugely into football; but Saturday's game was amazing.  Also finally started Downton Abbey on Thursday night.  I'm through the beginning of Season 2 so far.
  
• Read anything good?  Little bit more of Wool and started Far from the Tree.
  
• FFCs, vents, AWs, etc?  Looking forward to seeing how things are progressing at my OB appt tomorrow.  As of 2 weeks ago, I was 3 cm and 70% effaced.  I know it means nothing, but it's nice to hear if anything is happening down there.
  
• What are you looking forward to this week?  OB appt tomorrow and hopefully getting some more stuff done around the house.  Nursery closet is getting organized today and I'm hoping to get the call that the rest of the nursery furniture is in today or tomorrow.

• Highs? Getting baby furniture put together, getting some stuff organized that we'd been putting off.
  
• Lows? Being unable to find the color we used to paint the new baby's room 5 years ago. We don't want to repaint but need to touch up and can't find an exact match. There are weird spots all over the wall now. #firstworldproblems
  
• Eat/make anything good? PW's Chicken and Dumplings last night. YUM.
  
• Watch anything good? Ravens game was awesome!
  
• Read anything good? Nope.
  
• FFCs, vents, AWs, etc? I just found out that I can't take one class per semester this fall and next spring to lighten the load of my "professional year". So, I'm taking a year off (which I already have mixed feelings about) but now my final year in the program will be really crazy with both student teaching all day and classes at night.  I'm already dreading it.
  
• What are you looking forward to this week? Hopefully having a much needed date night with DH on Saturday. We haven't gone out, just us, in forever.

Can you scrap a little chip off the wall and have Home Depot match it and then just buy a pint?

Highs? Saturday's game was dgfinitely the highlight for me!

Lows? I was so lazy yesterday.  I should have done some organizing buy didn't.  I was also pulling for the Seahawks yesterday too and that blew. 

Eat/make anything good? Nothing inparticular...unless you count the glorious coffee yesterday morning that made climbing back in bed so worth it!

Watch anything good? Football!

Read anything good? no

FFCs, vents, AWs, etc? FFC- DH went out Friday night and I loved being home alone probably way more than I should have!  It was nice to just decompress and relax.

What are you looking forward to this week? Sunday can't get here soon enough!!

Highs? I had lots of quality snuggle time with Liam this weekend, which was awesome. Our evenings are so short that I feel like I don't get a lot of time with him, so one the weekends I let him nap on me all the time. It's probably a bad habit, but he's only going to be this little and snuggly for so long, so I don't care. I got to spend some quality one-on-one time with Mia, too, taking her to Target, lunch at a place of her choosing, and to Children's Place to pick out a few new things for her wardrobe.

Also: purged and reorganized the playroom with new furniture that DH assembled for me and I'm in LOVE with it, plus I went out with my BFF on Saturday night to a Mommies-Only trip to Target and the sushi place. It was awesome. 

Lows? DH had a rough time with Liam Sunday morning. It was my turn to sleep in so he was up with him in the morning, then when I woke up, he took the baby upstairs and they both went to sleep. I asked if he minded me taking Mia out and he said no, so she and I went out for a few hours. Between those two time periods of him being Baby Caregiver, Liam was fussy. Which is hard. I've been there. But DH acted like he was totally traumatized and was useless the rest of the day. I wanted to tell him to snap the eff out of it and go vacuum something.

Eat/make anything good? Five Guys on Sunday with Mia. Delicious.

Watch anything good? Caught up on some DVRed stuff: RHoBH, Vanderpump Rules (tricksy premiere, Bravo!), Top Chef, Million Dollar Decorators, NCIS, NCIS:LA, and the series finale of The Mob Doctor

Read anything good? Nay. I gave up on Gone Girl and haven't picked up anything since.

FFCs, vents, AWs, etc? Highs and Lows covered my AWs and Vents pretty well.

What are you looking forward to this week? Seeing my doctor on Thursday, taking Mia to paint-your-own-pottery place with her Daisy Troop on Friday.
