What do you have to AW about this week?
Mine is this
A week straight!!
Re: AW Thursday
Not sure this is an AW, because I am so ready for this to be over, but today is my due date. Let's hope I get some good news at the doctor today. We are just ready to meet this little guy!

I never really AW'd over here even though i have known for awhile... but we are having a BOY.
Im very pumped it is exactly what I wanted. (as my drama queen daughter just threw herself on the floor crying because she couldn't plug in a lamp due to the socket plugs)
I have no idea how to buy boy things...

I'm off tomorrow! And I made some plans to go out with the girls to celebrate my bday. And hopefully I can AW soon that our power comes back on! I'm nervous about the freezer stash. So I told DH to buy a generator by 4pm if it's not back on.
This definitely deserves it's own thread!!!! Congratulations!!!!! I'm sure you'll figure it all out!

Good luck at the Dr!!! Not sure where I've been, I thought you still had 2ish weeks to go
10 Years Later
Fingers crossed he decides to show up today!
Woo hoo!!!
congrats on your son! I didn't know how to "buy boy things" either but I'm a fast learner! It's actually been fun to look at dinosaurs and trucks and army guys.
AWWW They grow up way to fast in my opinion!
Also, while at the doct appt she pointed out to me that i had lost 23lbs since last August. I thought it was about 10-12lbs so to hear that was great motivation!

Good luck! I hope by the end of the weekend you're holding your little boy @ home!
I already knew, but YAY and congrats!!
And don't worry, I didn't know how to buy boy things when my nephew was born, but you will learn fast and boy stuff can be just as fun!
Good AWs today ladies!
Our family pics are in this week - that's about it for me!
Not sure these are AW-worthy, but I'm going skydiving on Saturday and tonight we meet with the first of four companies for having a patio put in our backyard.
We ordered new carpet for the family room! Goodbye nasty green carpet.
I think I am turning the corner with all the morning sickness and have felt almost completely normal the last couple days.
-very proud of DD last weekend as a flowergirl, it was just one of those "mommy" moments
-DH is only gone 2 days this week, he left this morning & will be back late Fri. night, his new assignment is in Cincy. We were happy that he's been home almost 4 weeks, so it's a bit sad having him traveling again, but it's been nice being a family again for more than the weekend.
-headed to Chicago area next week w/my aunt & the kids, 2 trips in 3 weeks...... can't wait to go to the Wilton Tent Sale
We started on the baby's nursery!
Mommy's little helper
Congrats!!!!
