I thought it would be good to start a weekly TGIF thread. What's everyone up to this weekend?

I have to cook two biggest dinners so H has something while I'm gone next week. I'm hoping to get some work on the nursery done. We have a graduation party Saturday and then our labor and delivery prenatal class!

Our church has a festival, so I am attempting to make a bunch of strawberry shortcake cupcakes for the bake table. It's a new recipe I found online, and I'm attempting a whipped cream, cream cheese frosting. However I just found out the bake table is outside (80s temperature), so they may all melt!

We have a birthday party for my niece in Canada on Saturday and then another niece's on Sunday close to us. Everybody's joked that it is too much activity for me in a weekend and it probably is. But, H and I have the week off together, so hopefully I can spend it stressing about the shit we need to be getting done.

DH has a final project to work on for his class, which will probably take him all weekend. So I guess I'm on solo toddler entertaining duty (like every other day).

DH is working all weekend. Tomorrow I am going to a friend's twin baby shower. She is due in July which is awesome because I don't have any IRL twin mom friends. Sunday I am taking DS1 to soccer. Other than that, just trying to make progress on the nursery.

elliecat17 sounds like a busy weekend! thinkchocolate05 mmmm strawberry shortcakes. I hope the new recipe works out and that the temperature won't mess them up. Could you place them on a plate over something filled with ice to keep them a little cooler? bsouls sounds like a busy but it ot good weekend. Hopefully you can get some rest in on your week off! @pennlylane GL to YH on his class project. And to you being on solo toddler duty:) happyfeet9 have fun at the shower! Uou should move here.. There is a crazy amount of twins on our block - 3 or 4 sets of them đ all spread out over just 2 streets heh

We were supposed to go to my cousins daughter s first bday party today but I have had to cancel due to my ankle and i got a lovely migraine to boot. So disappointed but traveling just wasnt an option today. Not sure what s on the plan this weekend.. I want to get behind the pc at some point I can really catch up on the board (s) here and do my check-ins (doing longer typing on my phone frustrates the heck out of me thanks to Dutch and English autocorrect mixing and matching đ˛). MH wants to tackle a list of chores for me - all I can help with is fold laundry đ¤

Oh and elliecat17 you asked elsewhere but I never got around to answering you! I took a nasty fall Wednesday before last while on my way downtown and broke my right ankle... ended spending the day at the ER and L&D due to contractions - luckily baby (and my ute/cervix, bw and fluids) checked out okay! I knew my ankle was in bad shape but really mostly was worried about the baby. Will be in the cast for 6-7 weeks total and arent allowed to put any weight on it the first several weeks at least. Crutches while 29wk pg is an interesting combo esp paired with mh heart issues. Am basically on some sort ofmodified bedrest as I gotte keep my foot up or it will swell like an elephants foot ugh and any overextertion (spelling) gives me runs of braxton hicks and/or heart issues. Fun times! The first days were really hard as I needed assiatance with every single friggin thing. But now I got a bed in the livingroom now and wheelchair and MH has made things to where I can move around freely so I have some independence again. He even made a ramp so I can wheel myself out into the garden - as being cooped inside made me crazy! I đ MH đ

I am mega klutz and can't do crutches not pregnant, I have no idea how you are managing with being pregnant. You have an awesome H and I'm glad you can get out into the garden. You will get that cast off and have a few weeks of nesting and then baby will be home with you!

Today we are driving to meet a friend for dinner. She's giving us her infant carseat since it stills has a year and a half left until experation so I'll be glad to have that taken care of. My plan is to plant the garden in the front yard this weekend and then plant as much of the backyard as I can next week. I'd also like to get the excess furniture out of the baby's room within the week.

So sorry about your ankle muscari! I hope it heals up quickly for you. Last night we went to dinner with my parents then came home and relaxed in bed with DD. We were terrible and were all on our tablets and phones the whole night. Today, nothing much is planned. I'm currently getting my hair done and then I've gotta go pick up my car from being serviced. Nothing else planned for tonight or tomorrow. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

Sorry I've been so MIA this week! So busy- we officially moved into our own condo! We are homeowners!! And it's so bizarre waking up in a new place with new furniture. But really cool. It still hasn't hit me yet that we own this place. I'm sure it will once the first really big issue pops up and I have to deal with it vs my H dealing with almost everything so far (since he's on vacation til residency starts, he's taken the lead on everything bc he has so much more time than me).
Worked last night but am up and ready to do lots of errands. / not ready. Just want to lounge but we need to do a lot of unpacking and look at and a buy a second car and run some random errands. Woof.

Weekend got side tracked by sick toddler. He's got some sort of viral infection and has had fever since yesterday morning. I missed the baby shower and he's missing soccer today. Poor kid.
