Vent - I have been updating my registry because MIL is throwing me a shower in October (none of the dates before LO arrived worked).
DH and I were going to buy the ergo off our registry because we need it now, but I checked my registry and the ergo had been purchased (I don't think by anyone attending the shower). I noticed it was purchased over a week ago, but it hasn't arrived yet! We keep waiting because we really need it :-(
today, I was updating again and noticed two more things were purchased :-) not very expensive items, but we need them (sun shade for the car window) so that's nice!
Accomplishment - I ordered LO's birth announcements and some prints for the frames in his room. :-) They should arrive in the next week or so!
Random - I have been up a lot with LO (as to be expected). All the original James Bond movies are on Netflix. I have been watching them (in order) and they really hold up. They are only on there through Sept. 2nd, so if you want to watch them, you might do so now. :-)

Honestly, I would have preferred to decline the shower from her for a lot of reasons. But I am going to grin and bear it, it is likely the only baby shower she will get to do. She only has twin boys (dh and bil) BIL is disabled.
I don't think any of the shower guests bought it. I suspect it was my sister who lives out of state.
I think it is more than MIL's shower guests would spend.
My BFF said she had a carrier I could borrow, so I might go pick that one up from her.

Accomplishment - I put my foot down about DH having wrestling (he's a referee for local wwe style shows...) bookings all the time. He thinks he's going to have time for 3 shows a month when LO arrives. I may have convinced him after we were gone 9 hours over the weekend for 1 show that it isn't going to be happening. Win!
Random - I had a dream last night that I was being chased by an intelligent tornado in a parking garage last night. What the fuck?
Accomplishment- I don't have one as of right now
Random- I think something is wrong with my dog. She is really good at waiting to go pee every morning and yesterday I caught her peeing in the living room and then today before taking her out to pee in the grass I walked to the truck to grab something (pretty usual) and she just started peeing on the cement next to the truck.

Accomplishment-I did my paper yesterday and wasn't even stressed for time. I was scared to write a paper again after so long but it just came so naturally. I am happy thatmy smarts are coming back even after time off and a baby!
Random-I got a vacuum sized steam cleaner at the neighbor's yard sale and I can't wait to try it! I would love to be able to clean my carpets like once a month but borrowing my mom's giant steam cleaner is a PIA!

How can I know for sure? What do I do? I've never had a dog before so I have no idea what to do

Team Green to Team Pink! Baby A born
Here comes 2u2! Team Green to Team Blue! Baby L born
Does this happen to all dogs at some point or did I do something wrong? I feel like a bad pet mommy :'(

The other possibility is that she can sense the huge changes that are about to happen and it is giving her an anxious bladder. I would take her to the vet to be sure though.
I have never dealt with this personally though.

Thanks for the advice
Vent - I am just thinking about how I start back to work next week
Accomplishment - I was able to weed this morning by taking B outside in the shade and bringing a blanket for him to do tummy time on. He loves being outside.
Random - I have done so many fun things while I leave. I'm sad trips to the toy lending library, new moms coffee, the children's museum, etc will end soon.

V&E need more tummy time, but they hate it
Cind, I think a meet n greet would be so fun!
Vent: I'm bored
Accomplishment: went for a 3 mile walk yesterday.
Random: I want to eat everything.

Accomplishment: AW- I am proud of my weight gain during pregnancy. I'm at 7 lbs total so far. With being inactive around the time of my surgery I was worried I would gain too quickly because of it. I was overweight to begin with so I didn't want a buncha pounds to hinder a healthy pregnancy.
Random: I have a whole bag of pink lady apples downstairs and that's what I want to eat for dinner. The whole bag.
