Re: AW Thursday

  • I have an interview today.  I am not confident at all, being I slept 2 hours and DS spit up all over my shirt when I dropped him off. So it looks like I have leaky bewbs.  Plus I think they already know who they are hiring for the position, they just have to interview 20 people for sh!ts and giggles. (gotta love corporate politics)

    I booked DS' 6 month photo shoot

    And we started opening our pool last night!!!!

  • I get an impromptu half day today!  Well it's not that exciting, my brother called this morning asking if i could pick him up at the airport.  I'm super annoyed because he's known for weeks that he's flying in today and he didn't think to ask for a ride until 7:30 this morning... (sort of an AW sort of a Vent...)

  • We are living in the new house and we love it!

    DH got offered a new job yesterday and I am so proud of him!! This is also a huge stress relief for us b/c this is a stable job where he can grow in his career.

    The renters for the condo are moving in this weekend. I need that rent money to decorate the new house lol.

    I planted my garden the other night

  • DS's bottom 2 teeth are starting to come in and I'm strangely excited about this milestone...even though I'm still BFing.

    The weather this week is awesome!

    I'm pretty excited for this weekend coming up since I'll get to see my best friend who is 11 weeks pregnant and has a little bump and my parents are coming back home from visiting my brother and SIL in Portland, OR.

  • We're going out to Kansas City tomorrow for the weekend and I get to see my good friend and her new baby daughter (only 8 weeks old!)

    Congrats to your DS. That IS exciting. Also, bottom teeth have no impact on BFing. If the baby is latched on correctly it is impossible for them to bite you since their tongue goes between your nipple and their teeth. 

     

    I already shared my AW for the week that Landon started taking steps. He's up to 4 at a time. He looks like a drunken frankenstein. It's adorable.

    Good point!  That makes me even happier! :)

  • We're joining a this weekend, officially since we have a meeting with the priest.
    My mom called yesterday and told me she's extending her trip out here by 3 days :) They want to see my husband and he'll be out of town all next week, so they're staying the weekend too. (thanks to my sis who was able to get of on the weekend)
    I realized last night that my double stroller fits into my trunk- thus allowing me to do so much more with the kids during the day. (aka: go to the park and walk/run with the boys and lose these damn pounds stuck around my waist)
    Last night, during our walk around the park, T saw a cup laying in the grass and insisted on picking it up to take to a garbage can.  <3

  • I am going to a get together this Saturday where I get to see a good friend that lives in the UK.  I am so happy she will be here later today.

  • I ran a whole mile the other day! lol I didn't think it was possible on my first try. I could've kept going if my shoulders didn't hurt. I'm looking forward to doing it again tonight.

    We're putting in the pavers this weekend, so we'll have a little patio area and no more mud pit at the back door. Hopefully the gazebo will go up shortly after it's done.

  • I have approximately 3 weeks until I find out if we're having a boy or girl!!!

    Yes

    The nursery is DONE. Lots of other little projects getting done too. Just need to get my bag packed and I'm ready!

  • We find out what we're having in less than a week!

    I think I found a great used (like new) Dutailier glider for the babies' room.

    My Dad said he will be available to come over several times this summer to help us get some house projects done. :)

    I read this and was thinking it was 3 weeks until your 20 week ultrasound to find out the gender and was confused because I thought you were much further along than that. I had to check your sig to realize you're almost due!

    YAY for a finished nursery!  Speaking of packing bags, this morning I was getting ready and thought "oh no! I better get a bag packed, just in case".  They checked yesterday and I'm only fingertip dilated.  We'll see what happens.  That's as far as I ever got on my own with Brendan!

    HAHA!  Yup!  I'm in the home stretch!  I really wanted to know the sex @ 20 weeks, but since then I've been pretty happy being in the dark about it.

    I haven't been checked yet, they won't until like 38 weeks. Yikes!

  • The Offer we put in on the house was accepted!!!!  I am so excited - we could close as early as middle of July depending on the sellers buying a new house!

  • I started running!  This is crazy for me to even think about, I've always said that I just don't run - unless I'm being chased.  Then when I went out for a walk something in my body was telling me to go faster.  So I just stared running and figured I would collapse after a block but I did okay.  It's challenging but not as hard as I imagined.  I've gone a few times now and it is definitely getting easier!
