TGIF - Weekend Plans?

Anyone doing anything fun? Hope anyone in the Midwest is able to escape the snow, even if it means snuggling up on the couch. :)

Re: TGIF - Weekend Plans?

  • Tonight:  H wants to go see Dumb & Dumber for a "date night."  I'm trying to convince him to go see it with his friend instead.

    Tomorrow:  Cleaning, cleaning, organizing, organizing.  I'm starting to really slow down and have soooo much left on my to-do list before baby gets here.  It's time to buckle down and do shit. 
    Then at night we have a birthday party for H's grandpa.  He'll be 90!

    Sunday: Church then more cleaning and organizing.  Yippee.

  • I guess I'm going to have a lazy day at home today. Called out of work cause I was crampy all night and now it seems to have stopped. Later today is my 38 week u/s.

    Tomorrow is my dad's birthday so we'll probably do a family dinner.

    Sunday is always chores around the house and watching the Cardinals game.

  • I actually got the day off of work today, so I'm snuggling up on the couch and staying out of the snow. :) Not that we have all that much here in Indiana. We got about an inch last night, but it's mostly off the streets by now. I also need to get a bunch of job application things done and make some calls to the midwives' office and insurance company while I'm snuggling today. No plans yet for tonight.

    Tomorrow, I'll probably try to talk myself into doing a bunch of laundry and helping DH clean the "man cave"/guest room for my parents' visit next week.

    Sunday is too far away for plans. I'll probably go to a yoga class that night.

    TTC #1 August 2014. BFP 9/26! EDD 6/9/15
    Baby A born 6/17/2015
  • Today: I am working until 1pm and then I am off work all next week. My first appointment is today at 2:30pm. I'm feeling super anxious because most of my symptoms seem to have dropped off completely or almost completely. I'm hoping I can get some kind of reassurance at my appointment.

    Saturday/Sunday: We are going back to my hometown this weekend. My cousin got sick a few months ago and it attacked his heart. He has been doing ok and has been on the transplant list. In the last few days, he has taken a turn for the worst. He had to have open heart surgery this morning. I wanted to mention it because I would be so appreciative if y'all could keep him in your prayers!

  • Tonight I am getting a much needed hair cut and then my Dad is coming up for the night.

    Tomorrow we will do a big family breakfast and then DH and my Dad are getting the nursery and guest room as finished as possible.

    Sunday we are bringing our dog to the vet because he started having seizures. We are on seizure 2 in 2 months so I think the doctor is going to start him on meds. I'm worried that it all started when he started eating beneful (which we NEVER gave him before). My Dad gave us a huge bag after his dog passed away but our dog has always eaten Purina One. I've heard horror stories about that food so now I'm worried I was causing them from the food and he might not need meds but start them anyway.

    I barely know it's the weekend :)

  • @brij2006‌ - I've never been a fan of that movie/those movies but I hope if you went you got some laughs out of it.

    @BreMae‌ - I hope your appointment went well and you're feeling better. Can't believe you're so close. :)

    @Apollo11235‌ - Enjoy your semi relaxing weekend!

    @OohSparkly13‌ - I hope your appointment went well and they were able to reassure you. Also sorry to hear about your cousin. I hope things take a turn in the other direction for him.

    @sgautschi‌ - Yay for seeing Thomas again. Our follow up ultrasound is Monday and I can't wait. We may have to schedule a 3D sometime in the next 18 weeks, because I don't think I can go that long without seeing little man again.

    @Sewilson33‌ - that's super scary about your dog. I hope they're able to figure out what's going on and help him feel better.

    @zamboni00‌ - Enjoy every second of cuddle time this weekend. :)

    As for me, tonight I made a tutu and diaper cover for a friend's baby's 1st birthday party. I'll pip below. The diaper cover is hot pink and light purple but my phone doesn't like the light in our living room.

    Tomorrow - I need to work from home a bit and DH wants to go find a glider for the nursery. It was something he wasn't sure we needed but I've pushed and now he understands and wants to buy it for me. It's cute how excited he's getting.

    Sunday is my dads birthday. He has been in Texas for the past few days for a huge job interview. The place actually called him and asked him to come without him applying and they even set up lots of things for my mom to do today while he was busy. She got picked up at the hotel by two realtors to show her different areas and options, then had lunch with some wives from the place my dad was interviewing. They had a big dinner tonight and are going to look at houses tomorrow. I have extreme doubt that they'd move cross country, but it would be a great opportunity for my dad. We'll see what happens....
  • @Sewilson33‌ one of my dogs I had when I was younger started having seizures around 3 years old. It would happen whenever she got overly excited. For treatment, the vet gave us little pills to give her once a day. Eventually, she stopped having the seizures and we didn't have to give her the pills anymore. Hopefully your pup's seizures are a temporary condition as well!

  • @simsk3887‌ Thank you! I felt much better after my appointment and have a dating ultrasound scheduled for next Tuesday.

    My cousin did well with the surgery. They say the next 2 days are the most important.

  • @simsk3887 Definitely do the 3D. We did it with A also, we had our parents and siblings come with us. They will be coming with us to this one as well. It was really special to share that experience with them. Plus they paid for it (which we weren't expecting, but it was a bonus). :)

    Oh and I also paid for webcam so that my grandma could see. They didn't have this technology with our parents or grandparents so sharing that with them was/is really cool. :)

    We got pills too but the vet said to not start them unless he has another seizure in under a month from now or has multiple ones after this one.

    We can't figure out a trigger yet.
