What does everyone have planned for today?
We have our NT scan, we're both so excited to see Baby Mo again, and how much my little parasite has changed since we last saw it. I think other than that we'll just hang out at home. I'll probably work on Christmas Cards, and then clean the house some.
We've officially moved Sasha (our foster mom dog) out of the nursery, so I can move the crib box into the room! Part of me wants to go ahead and put it together, but I also need to clean the carpets... so I think I may wait. Although I'm dying to see it put together!
My overly happy baby girl!

Re: Morning!!
Good Morning!!
That is so exciting Mar. The time is going by so quickly. I would be the same way about the crib.
Today I am pretty swamped at work, and the dull constant cramps I have to admit are sort of annoying. Exercise definitely helps so today after work I will be taking a long walk and getting a small workout in.
That's what I found too, plus getting out and walking the dogs seemed to give me more energy to make it through the afternoon. After week 4 I didn't nap anymore. But I still went to bed between 8-930. The more fluids I drank also helped with the cramps too.

Hope the appointment goes well Mar!
Busy day, hoping my customers get me their stuff soon, I was supposed to have it last week originally.
Thanksgiving potluck at work tomorrow that I coordinated so I need to prep for that tonight after work.
Not much else going on, last night I did order our christmas card photo and 2011 Calendars for DH and I of Sadie pics. At least one thing is done.

Thats a really cute idea, I think I may steal it for one of Dh's presents. Ooo and MIL!

I started bringing my massive water bottle to work to help break the caffeine habit, but that is a nice added benefit. I haven't found myself super exhausted yet but I definitely fall asleep easier if I am lying on the couch, it's weird actually.
I fully plan on expanding this idea to grandparents once little ones are involved! It's really easy to do and people love it! Even DH's coworkers commented on the one I made him last year that he has up at work.

More of the same old stuff here. Just stressing and waiting for the end of the day on 12/3 so all the inventory and audit stuff will be done and I will be able to breathe again.
Waiting to see if there is any more news from my brother today. I still have not heard from him and I will let him contact me first. DH said he would like to talk to my brother too and asked me for his phone number. I thought it was odd but DH is curious like the rest of us and wants to see if he can figure out what brought this on.
