MMPP
What's up this week?
Dayne has his two month check up today - Jason's taking him. He's getting his first round of shots and I know I'd be crying right along with him.
Hopefully walking more this week, I've been doing really well!
My parents fly up tomorrow for the week, my sisters "wedding" is on Saturday. Which means I also need to find my dress before then too!
Re: MMPP
This is hell week for me. DH is out of town until Saturday afternoon, so I'm single parenting it. Gabriel is still sick and last night was terrible. He was up every 2 hrs screaming and crying because he couldn't breathe.
Other than trying to survive, I have no plans at all other than working.

Start weekly doctor's appointments today...woo hoo!!
Our freezer arrives today. I can't wait to not have stuff falling out of ours every time the door opens!
I need to start prepping our cloth diapers this week.
Carpets and couch are getting cleaned Saturday AM.
I want to start planting some flowers this weekend, but we will see.
Mommy's little helper
I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm having a baby this week!
Officially working from home now so I can post on here again and then induction is scheduled for Thursday. I'm hoping to go into labor naturally before that, but I guess I'll see my progress at my last appointment tomorrow.
We have a showing for a potential renter tonight
Lexi's 18 month appt on weds
wedding sat
The sellers are moving out sat so we FINALLY get the keys to our new house on sunday! So cleaning and starting to move some small boxes.
Just working and trying to recover from being gone over the weekend. I have mountains of laundry to do, cleaning, cooking baby food, etc.
On a positive note, I'm going to get an iPhone tonight! I'm pretty excited about that! We are celebrating Mother's Day this upcomign weekend too. And we have the Clawson Dog Jog on Saturday that we've invited a bunch of our friends to do with us.
YAY!!! Congrats! I hope everything goes smoothly this week!
I've got a pretty relaxing week ahead. I'm working all week. DH is on call all week, which means he's been getting phone calls at crazy hours of the night (which is kind of sabotaging my sleep). One of my friends just decided to start selling Mary Kay products, so I'm going to her first party on Thursday.
That's about it!
Serendipity3, South Beach, Miami, FL 2012
Yoga tonight. I have my 16 wk appt Thursday, so no ultrasound, but I do get to hear the heartbeat! On Saturday, DH and I are going to see about buying him a bike for his birthday. Other than that, just the regular meal planning, grocery shopping, cleaning stuff.
Just spending some time with DH, packing and stuff like that before leaving on Thursday for NYC.
Congrats!!! Janedoe is being induced Thursday too!
We are redoing the office this week, so every night we have to tackle some project in there and hopefully it will all be done this weekend. Then I have to order DH's father's day gift, cause I am too lazy to drive out there and get what I want. Then I have a bridal shower for my work spouse this weekend! I set him and his chick up, so I am so excited to see this all play out
Today: walk/yoga, Trader Joes, weeding the backyard, relax a little hopefully
Tues: walk/yoga, maybe go to Meijer, but nothing else planned
Wed: same as Tues
Thurs: same as Wed
Fri: work at DD's school in the morning, 30 week appt in the afternoon!, make homemade ice cream for a gtg with family friends Saturday
Yay! wpw is having a baby this week! And yay to amyvan for weekly doctor appointments. What an exciting time!
We have a busy week this week. The house hunt is on so we'd like to focus some attention on that. And we should have an inspection on our house this week. I also have to go into a lab this week for the second blood draw of our sequential screen. I hope we get results this week too. My OB said that it usually doesn't take that long. Fingers crossed!
Not to much on the chore list this week.
Unpack & put away all my stuff from my trip. Go grocery shopping. I also need to get some things that I have on my list of stuff to get for the camper.
Hopefully this weekend will be nice & we can open up the camper and get it prepped for the summer. I'm so excited for our first trip on memorial day.

I have to get used to working early again. My schedule is flipped for the week so I am work 6:30a- 3:00p.
Tonight- Getting my oil changed and then spending time with my best friend
Tuesday- Hopefully getting my iPhone fixed. My camera doesn't work. :-(
Wednesday and Thursday- Finish unpacking and cleaning the apartment and helping my cousin move in.
Friday- Soccer game! :-)
This weekend I'm going to Penn State to see my best friend graduate with her Master's!
Fire it up, Let's go get this thing stuck
Wooohoooo!! Can't wait to hear the details!
This week I need to get our like back together, clean, dry cleaning, everything from being on vacation, I want to do yoga and get outside a lot!
hopefully a BBQ at my parent's this weekend to send my little brother off to his training (he just got a job with a commercial airline as a pilot-so has 6 weeks of training)
Today: Depending on how I feel, I may head outside and attempt to do a little yardwork. As long as I don't overdo it, I think I should be fine. Church GTG tonight with my Mom.
Tuesday: Dr.'s appt, do whatever I can to help DH get the house sprayed outside so the darn spiders stop coming in.
Wed/Thurs: A friend and her daughter are coming over one of these nights, and also need to run to Target.
Friday: Ultrasound in the afternoon (!!!!) and then going to dinner with my Mom since my Dad will be out of town.
Monday and Tuesday- work
Thursday/Fri- have a baby
That is all
Dinner with MIL tonight - alone - which should be annoying since she/H ended up arguing yesterday when certain things about how we would raise our kid got brought up. And then she said "well at my house it's my rules."
Ummmm no lady - we expect you to respect our parenting choices regardless of location.
Ugh - and the biggest thing they argued about was her smoking around the kid esp. in the house and car - just because your kid turned out "fine" doesn't mean it's a-ok to smoke around kids. I'm so not looking forward to the next 18 years of arguments. /rant.
Also have grocery shopping and vet appointment this week. Bleh. And Sat. is our child birth class/hospital tour.
This week will be the usual, work Monday-Friday, ballet class tonight, get a run in hopefully every day, Pilates class with my mom on Wednesday, Grocery shopping and errands on Friday.
This weekend DH and I are participating in the American Heart Association Heart Walk down at Washtenaw Community College with a group of his co-workers. We'll probably spend the day down in AA. Sunday I have a long training run and then just relaxing.
All the family & DH have gone, so back to just me & the kids for the week...
This morning I had my MOMS mtg....it was brunch & also massages for $10 if you wanted....it was nicely enjoyed :=) Tonight is my last church board mtg.
Tues: mani/pedi for me, haircut for DD
Wed: church
Thurs/Fri: no plans
Sat: grad party for a friend who just rec'd her Masters degree
Going to visit my friend and her babygirl that was born this morning
38 week appt on Wednesday to see if more progress has been made.
Maternity shoot on Saturday in Waterford unless baby is here before then.
Rest,Rest,Rest
Hope everybody has a great week!
