Weekend Plans?
Raves/Rants?
Re: TGIF!
Weekend Plans: Not sure what we're doing tonight... might get some grocery shopping done... or not, lol. If not then I want to finish wrapping the few Christmas presents we have left to wrap- and then I'll be DONE!
Tomorrow, H and I are having lunch with my brother, and then I'm getting my haircut.
On Sunday, I'm going to the ILs to help MIL and SIL make Christmas cookies that they make every year. I'm so happy to be included in this tradition now, and MIL already said we should make it a yearly thing. Yay
Raves: My 12 days of Christmas plan is going great, and I totally surprised H which doesn't happen often!
(Some of you may recall me mentioning this. I got H a gift for each day leading up to Christmas that corresponds to that day. On the 12th day of Christmas I got him 12 cookies. 11th day = 11 candies, 10th day=$10 gift card, etc).
He finally caught on that I'm giving him something each day. At first I had him believing that I just got him a random present for the 12th day, haha.
And today is our 5 year dating anniversary! (and probably the last one we'll acknowledge)
AND I only have 3 days left of work after today before my Christmas vacation!
Rants: The forecast is saying lots of snow for most of next week- not excited about it.
Weekend Plans: Tonight H and I are going out to dinner and finish shopping. We really just have gift cards left to get. Then we are going to drive around and look at Christmas Lights I loved this as a kid and can't wait to do it with our kids.
Tomorrow I am going shopping with my mom to look for a dress to wear to a NYE Wedding. And Sunday H and I are going to clean the house, watch football, and finish wrapping presents.
Raves: Christmas is almost here and I can't wait for H to open his presents. I always LOVE the look on his face because he realizes every year how much I truely know about him.
Rants: This day at work started out great and then it all went downhill. I hae had 2 stupid phone calls already. Plus the 1 customer I can't stand is back. And a pile of paperwork I just now finished and I've only been here 2 hours. Thank goodness I get off work early on Fridays.
I don't even pay attention to the forecast anymore, just the roads, which have been treated already. That's when I get ready for snow, haha.
Our annual family cookie decorating day is tomorrow! Yay!
Rants: (TMI?) I swear, I don't normally have many PMS symptoms.. maybe a little cramping? But this time, it's awful. Major cramping, and I've been way too emotional. It's been crazy. Poor H
Also, my co-worker left here around 9, and our boss is out, so I have basically 3 jobs worth of work to do today. Awesome.
Raves: H has been sending me the most adorable little love notes for the past week or so. If we weren't married, I would be sure he was getting ready to propose haha. And well, I'm stoked for the weekend!!
Weekend Plans: Tonight we're headed to our friends house for pizza and playing with their adorable daughters. Love it! Tomorrow, as I mentioned, is cookie day at my mom's, with a handful of our lady relatives. One of my favorite days of the year (not only because of the yummy cookies, either!)
Not sure about Sunday, but we really have to get started shopping for my fam! We've got his all set!
After 2 years of TTC, lots of tests, and a Hysteroscopy/Laparoscopy to remove several polyps,
Clomid/IUI #1 3/14: cancelled due to surprise BFP 3/8/14.
Beta 1 3/11: 398 Beta 2 3/13: 728 Beta 3 3/20: 11,482
Surprise BFP turns into Surprise Twins!

Allelujah!!!
Weekend Plans: tonight is our Friday date night: grocery shopping and dinner...yahoo! Saturday we are finishing our last minute small Christmas list. Sunday is Christmas! (didn't you guys know this already!) Well Christmas with my parents before they fly out to DE to spend Christmas with my sister and her family, anyway.
Raves: IT'S FRIDAY!!!!!!! This has been a torturous week, so I am so glad that it is nearing an end.
Rants: The boss is sick and keeps coming up to my desk and for whatever reason spewing his germy germs on me. Hello? Do I look like I want to be sick and have a day off from work? hmm...wait a minute....
Rants: this week hasn't been too bad at work, although H has really been down in the dumps which makes me upset and want to smack people.
Raves: TGIF!
Plans: No big plans for tonight. I'm making calzones from scratch for dinner and we'll probably watch a movie. Tomorrow I'm hoping we can finish our Christmas shopping and run a few more errands. Sunday will be my usual day of house cleaning and some cooking. We might go out to dinner Sunday night, not sure yet.
Plans: PackpackpackpackPACK. When H turned in his notice Wednesday, they made Thursday his last day. So we're going to try to be ready to move by the first week of January- Since we'll be out of town for 10 days around Christmas, we're going to have to haul a$$ next week ;p
Rants: Other than being a little surprised that H's job wouldn't let him work his last two weeks, nothing to rant about.
Raves: One of my best friends from high school has offered to let us stay with her for an indeterminate amount of time when we get to SF. I am floored by her generosity and am sincerely hoping we don't get on her or her husband's nerves.
