How in the world is it mid-February already?
So I managed to break my toe this weekend. Even considering that, it was a good one!
How is everyone?

Hope it heals quickly adeline! Is February summer or fall for you? How bad are your winters? I don’t mind February, because it always goes by so quickly. Just get me to March and spring!

Crossing over from the other randoms, DS's hair fell out after he was born and came back as curly blonde hair. And I definitely need a haircut before baby's born, but I normally have a pixie cut or a little longer, so I need to time it right. Right now, it's long enough for a little pony tail and driving me crazy.

And while I'm spamming it up in here, DH made a comment about how we needed to buy some baby stuff and have about 2.5 months to do it. Thinking about it in months is so weird and makes it seem like such a short time for some reason.

adeline, I hope your toe heals quickly. I'm quite over February since I've been sick in some capacity since the 2nd. I haven't worked a full day since the 1st and would just like to feel normal again, please.

Thinking about it in months is so weird and makes it seem like such a short time for some reason. I just checked on when I can use my completion discount to buy some things from Amazon. It kicks in 60 days before the due date, which is March 5th for me. We’re getting so close!

Hah, so my thoughts were totally right. I have to go back for a follow up A/S. He was in the wrong place to get a good picture of the heart, though she got everything else.

Lol, yes, he's a boy XD After I got up to have a pee to try to get him in a better position she wound up between his legs again and it was super obvious lol. He had his legs up and his ankles crossed, like sitting indian style, and it was just hanging out right there

There wasn't enough frosting to do the tops of all of the cupcakes, so I get to eat some, hehehe

Hope it heals quickly adeline! Is February summer or fall for you? How bad are your winters? I don’t mind February, because it always goes by so quickly. Just get me to March and spring! It’s a tropical inferno here right now. We lost power overnight from a storm and the minimum overnight temp was 24 degrees Celsius (75 f). It’s so fricken humid. No fans or air con. So yep, it’s summer. I usually love it but the humidity is gross at the moment. Winter is super mild here. T-shirt weather most days with some cooler nights. Time is just flying at the moment. Moving into our house in about 3 weeks. When are you all finishing up with work? I’m hoping to go til the last week of April (38 weeks but RCS at 39).

adeline I hope your toe feels better! It’s been so rainy and dreary here since Saturday I’m over it and want some sunshine! I’m planning on trying to work until the week before my due date ... we will see though

I'll probably work until near the end especially since I'll have zero leave left by then. Last time I went out around 37 weeks because I couldn't waddle from classroom to clasroom fast enough. Hoping I'll last until 38/39 week threshold especially if I'm having an RCS.

Moving into our house in about 3 weeks. When are you all finishing up with work? I’m hoping to go til the last week of April (38 weeks but RCS at 39). Well, I learned from HR last week that in order to get paid through the end of the school year, I need to work through my due date and have the baby a week late. Which means he'll probably come early. So my current goal is to work up to my due date, which isn't super realistic given the physical nature of my classroom. But we'll see.

budders how stressful. Nothing you can control though so fingers crossed it goes to plan.

budders how stressful. Nothing you can control though so fingers crossed it goes to plan. I know, I'm trying not to stress about it. It's hard because we will have enough set aside for summer when we don't get paid (H is also a teacher), but to lose either half or an entire paycheck right before summer is a huge loss of income for us. H was really sweet about it, though. He said that the baby will come when he is ready and we will figure it out. Which is very true, it WILL all work out somehow, and I'm trying to cling to that.

I'm going to work as late as I can and try not to stress about it. I know I have it a little easier than most of you since we have a year of mat leave. I was hoping to go up until about 2 weeks before my due date but given how much my hips are already hurting I don't think I'm going to be able to go that long.

I have a couple Blue Apron codes for free meal boxes if anyone is interested in one. You have to be a first time customer and comfortable with PMing me your real name and email 😉

Went to see my hairdresser today. She told me that if we can arrange the photoshoot for a Sunday, she'll come out and do my hair for me =D We were also talking and I'm going to let my hair grow for now, but I think that my last appointment before my due date I'll probably do an inverted bob like I had ~2 years ago. It was pretty easy maintenance, and it'll be nice to have my hair off of my neck without having to worry about tying it up all the time.
