What's up in your lives?

Are you all to busy to check in?

I had my 28 week appointment today. Everything looks good and I can't believe I'm in my last trimester. Found out that my FIL is coming for the birth of baby boy. I feel really selfish but it's an inconvenience for us. My mom is coming too, but she will be taking care of the other two kids while we are in the hospital. Looks like I'm going to have a full house.

Re: What's up in your lives?

  • Hey! Long time no see! I've been trying to check in and read what you all have been up to. Congrats on third trimester! And this is the time to be selfish (even though it's not a selfish thing to want space as your current family structure shifts to include a new little one). Don't feel bad at all for the way you feel!

    I had my 40 week appointment today (I'll be 40 weeks Friday) and doc said he'd be surprised if I made it through the weekend. I guess we'll just have to see. Now just the wait

  • Wow! Third trimester already Aleigha! I don't think you're being selfish at all. I'd feel the same way if I was in your position.

    I'll be looking for updates this weekend Jean :) I hope you have a very smooth labor and delivery.

    I've been busy taking care of some things. On Monday my fil and I took my car to the Honda dealer because it is part of the airbag recall. He was kind enough to hang out with Abby and I so I wasn't stranded at the dealer for 2 hours. They didn't have the passenger airbag, so we'll have to go back again. I was able to get a lot of Christmas shopping done. We got rid of cable to save some money and I had to take the cable box back yesterday. Today I ordered photo books for our parents and grandparents (75% off) at Walgreens. Tomorrow I'll pick them up. I also want to make ornaments or a holiday craft to give our parents. I thought of one more thing to get Abby, then we should be done with her.

  • Wow, Aleigha! I can't believe that you are that far already! Boy does time fly!

    Good luck Jean!

    Megan- welcome to no cable! It's not a bad place to be.

    For me, just getting used to living on our own still. I think we finally have laundry and dishes figured out. Now to figure out cleaning. It's also my last week at this job, already! She only had her baby on the 4th of November. I think it's crazy that she's coming back, but she is!

  • Megan- welcome to no cable! It's not a bad place to be.

    Last year was the first year we had cable. It was nice to have it. I got spolied and really didn't want to lose the convienience (sp?) of on demand. We're saving a little over $20/ mth by ditching cable. It pays for Abby's insurance. The money is much better spent this way. Maybe in the future when things aren't so tight...

  • It is nice, I just can't see paying the extra money for something I can get for free for the most part. But then again, I've never had cable, so I guess I don't know what I'm missing.

  • I grew up without cable. And I would ditch it to save money but DH keeps saying we get a better deal bundling out cable and Internet rather than just having internet. He grew up with cable so I think he just doesn't want to get rid of it. Lol

    And yay for 3rd trimester, Aleigha. It seems like it's going so fast! And Jean, I'm so excited for you. I really do hope everything goes smoothly and quickly!

    YAY Aleigha!!  I am so excited for you.

    Jean- I have been stalking you on fb.  I am wishing you a fast delivery

    This is exactly what Comcast told me. It was a better deal until the promotion we were on ended. I was able to find just internet with another company for $40/ mth. I told Comcast I didn't want to leave since we've had them 4 years and they matched the price from the other company. I might not be able to get away with that next year. I'm the one who grew up with cable, dh didn't. We have Netflix and use Redbox.

  • We love Netflix. And P keeps getting deals. They messed up our bill when we moved so he got them to extend the promotion we had giving us cheaper cable for another year and free HBO for a year.

  • It's still cheaper for me. It would be 27 dollars more a month for cable, regardless, and that's just for the cheap plan. To get the regular package, it would be twice as month as what we pay for the internet.
