Brownies are in the oven...now to decide what's for dinner. At least you have your priorities in order.

The biggest FWP: we got our mini-session pictures back tonight, and I've since been on Tiny Prints for an hour and a half. It always takes me for.ev.er. to decide on a design and debate how many pictures to use. I think I'll wait till Black Friday/Cyber Monday since they usually do a good sale, so at least I have a week to decide?

DS was up 4 times last night with a cold. I think I got 2 hours of sleep and I woke up with a sore throat. We're still in our pyjamas and now I also have heartburn from leftover pizza.

Sorry about the rough nights snowmoon polson. Depressed vent incoming. Last night was DH first time on night shift. I am not used to gong to bed without him. Spent hours laying in bed on my phone watching videos etc. At one point I got up to get a drink or pee and I felt seriously bipolar. Within the steps from my bedroom to the bathroom(not far) my mind went thru happy because my bed was so cozy and my pjs so cuteand comfy and I liked the glimpse of my hair in the mirror to hating myself because I was a shitty person for not adulting right. Hopefully that was just the result of being really overtired. and didn't sleep till early hours this morn, then stayed in bed and slept with him when he got home. I got plenty of shit eye, but I feel 😵 and not like cleaning up my house, but I really want it done. *yes I see it doesn't say shut eye but with my current mood I'm leaving it.

I just got done with my appt with the genetic counselor. They did the bloodwork in office and it sucked. It took 3 people and 5 tries before they got it all. 😮
The counselor was amazing and so nice. She said it can take 7-10 days for the results. They will overnight it today and she's hopeful they might be in next Friday. They are closed but she said she can check from home and call me so I don't spend all weekend worrying if I don't need to. So now we hope for good results.

*hugs* alwayscheese I'm sorry you had a rough night. Here's hoping H's schedule change doesn't weigh on you too long. cp3 I love your counselor. I love all care providers that will "work" on the holidays so that their patients don't have to worry (it's one of the reasons I love my OB so much -- she gave us our results from our first loss on Christmas Day, so we didn't have to spend the whole time agonizing). I hope you get the results you're hoping for and things turn out the best possible way. <3

Thanks ladies. Yes, she is so nice which made this morning a lot better because I was so anxious for it. I stopped at the bagel shop nearby for breakfast and a treat after for being poked so many times.
I'm feeling a lot better today and kind of at peace with things. Whatever happens happens and she will be loved no matter what.

cp3, I am so happy to hear that your counselor said she would call you so you don't worry. I am sorry they had to stick you so many times to get all the blood though.

cp3, I'm so glad your counselor was so nice! I hope this next week goes quickly for you. I realized we probably need to go pick out our Christmas tree this weekend. We always go with the ILs and it's this whole thing. I do not want to go at all.

When will you cut yours down? We usually cut it down the weekend before Christmas Eve but this year that's only two days in advance. We may need to pick it up the 17th to get it decorated in time.

We leave for vacation tomorrow and I have cleaned almost the entire house, done all the laundry (there’s more already??) and picked the car. I wanted dh to agree to go out to eat tonight and instead he came home, limped through the door and went straight to bed. Did not say 5 works to me. Wtf dude. I could have taken the kids out myself, but that sounded like so much work. Ugh. We had cheese sandwiches and potato soup. He’s now up playing games and has a sick stomach and asked why I’m headed to bed. BC IM F-ING EXHAUSTED. He’s lucky he’s alive. auri I had ice cream as soon as the kids were in bed. I also had about a half dozen chocolate chip cookies. cp3 fingers cross for you! I hope the wait goes quickly. She’ll be loved no matter what though, so it’s just a bump on the road. You’ll figure it out ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

I’m craving lemon delicious (a baked, warm lemon dessert thing- not sure if universal). MIL dropped off her dog (ugh) and lemon cake (yay!) today so I know what I’m doing tonight.

alwayscheese sorry for your rough night! cp3 so glad you had a good appointment. it's so nice working with providers you feel comfortable with and who care about their patients dizzycooks sorry about you night - hopefully your h feels better and pulls it together so you can enjoy your vacation. yay for a pre-vacation clean house...seriously the best thing ever to come home to. as for me, my appointment went fine yesterday. labs were all normal, so they are guessing blurred vision/headache was due to dehydration. i think i'm in serious denial that thanksgiving is next week and that means it's time for christmas decorations. i managed to make a list for what i need to get yet for gifts. i am planning on doing homemade irish cream as hostess gifts this year and i managed to order the carafes i'm going to use. i'm starting to feel on top of things a little. going to meet a friend for coffee without dd this morning and then going to try to get some stuff done around the house. my sil had her baby last night so i'm looking forward to some newborn cuddles this weekend. what's everyone else up to this weekend?

I am so behind on Christmas shopping. We have a few gifts in process and a some ideas, but so much left to figure out. I am feeling like putting up the Christmas decor this weekend so I’m hoping that will get me in the spirit.
We’re doing an escape room thing with friends today and then having Friendsgiving with other friends. I was super excited for both of these, but I woke up with a sore throat and congestion so I’m sure that will only get worse. Blahhh. I hate being sick over the weekend, but I also hope I don’t have to use any PTO come Monday.

dizzycooks have fun on your vaca!! Where are you guys going? polson I’m glad your appt went well and they aren’t concerned about anything too serious. It’s crazy how dehydrated you can get while pregnant. I know I definitely feel those effects sometimes. cp3 more hugs to you! I’m happy your counselor was so great and helpful. Hopefully your lab results come back quickly!

dizzycooks I hope you have fun on your vacation! clementine I've done an escape room a couple of times...they are really fun. Hope you feel better. Today we are hosting our monthly game night. I need to go to the store and pick up some last minute things...we decided on a taco bar dinner tonight but I think I'd rather have chicken instead of beef. So we're going to have both.

We escaped! After using our 3 hints haha. It was pretty fun and we’re now 4/4 on escaping! Now just back porch sitting until Friendsgiving because it’s actually fairly warm out.

I don't know if I'm just extra sensitive because pregnant, or if DH has gotten worse lately, but he's killing me with the chewing with his mouth open. I point it out to him, he apologizes, is better for about 10 seconds, and then goes back to being oblivious.
It is the worst sound in the world. Do you think a jury would convict me?

Not if the jury were all pregnant women.

My husband grinds his teeth at night. He'll put in a mouth guard if I tell him he's doing it but takes it out an hour later. I want to smother him in his sleep.

My H and i had a good date night last night. Massages and then the Melting Pot. Silly pregnancy made me too full to really eat the chocolate though. Womp.
Today we're taking our daughter to pick out a Christmas tree and hopefully to the pictures with Santa event my cousin is throwing if there's time.
I finished the baby blanket last night and I'm almost done with the growth chart. It is coming out way better than I expected. I'm so excited. I just want my H to paint so I can decorate!
I was hoping to buy a name sign from Etsy but the growth chart came out so well I'm thinking I may try and make it myself. It'll definitely be cheaper.
