polson thanks for describing my hair. A haircut and color are on the list of things I am going to do the first time I can have a solo outing after baby is here.

I am so glad it’s Friday. Dh wants to go out bc the kids are gone for the night. I want to lay down and never move again. Especially bc I know tomorrow is going to be busy and exhausting. I still have baby stuff to do, just zero energy to do it. Must make dh a list and pray he’ll do it.

I just bought big brother and big sister shirts for my other 3 kids to wear to the hospital next month. Definitely not a necessity, but I'm pretty excited about them and have all the feels when it comes to having my 4 kiddos together for the first time. I'm sure I'll ball like a baby. As rough as this pregnancy has been physically and emotionally, I'm so grateful for my last and final take-home baby. ❤

mattsgirl2004 I’m thinking about getting matching shirts too. Haven’t done it yet. Where did you find them? I am so frustrated. Dh didn’t call me back, his phone is dead and he’s not in his office. How long am I suppose to sit here and wait for dinner??

DH is home! Phew.
I also really want a pedicure. I got one on New Year's Day that is really hurting but I can't comfortably bend over to remove the polish and a pedicure would be SO nice. But...gross...I have a plantars wart on my heel and that kind of rules out a pedi. Womp.

dizzycooks I found some on Amazon for pretty decent prices. Hopefully the quality is okay too. I bought them through Prime with free shipping and returns. So, if they're not as nice it shows in the pic, I'll just return them. I'm sorry you're waiting on your DH, especially with how tired you are. Hope he shows up soon! I'd be frustrated too!

I remember last time I thought I lost my mucus plug but It was like, a quarter sized piece. Then my water broke and I learned just how big that sucker was. I will NEVER FORGET what that looked like. 👀

I'm getting a pedicure now and I'm loving the massage chair. I need one at home lol. I am contemplating getting a pedicure tomorrow. So I can have pretty feet for Sunday night and Monday. I had been planning on painting my toenails so they looked decent for the hospital, and I didn’t end up getting them done until last Wed night so I’m assuming my body was just waiting for that to go into labor.

But, my god, it’s much more than I thought. I made an audible “AHHHHH!?” When I finally saw what it was. 😂

Last night I flopped around in bed for two hours before I could fall asleep. Slept for an hour and had to get up to pee. Then two more hours of flopping, repeat until the toddler started barking from her crib in the morning because she woke up as a dog. I am tired x 100

Sometimes I try to keep up over on GD, especially when pinned posts like the site-wide thread go up. It doesn't work. I'm just glad I can keep up over here most days! Bring on the babies! ArielMermaid I snorted at your LO waking up as a dog. Totally a commiseration lovetit - toddlers are the worst and the best. I hope you get more, and better, sleep tonight.

I'm getting a pedicure now and I'm loving the massage chair. I need one at home lol. I have a stupid question... I've never gotten a pedicure because I'm weird about feet. But I feel like I want one before having this baby. If I get one now (36.5w) will it probably last the rest of the pregnancy? It probably will. Pedicures always last a lot longer for me than manicures. I'm planning on going one more time before baby though just because I like getting them done and enjoy the foot masaages.

I packed up my office at work so the new girl can fully move in it next week. It was definitely bittersweet as I've been there for over 8 years but I'm ready and looking forward to SAH.
I also got to enjoy some of that cake from yesterday. It was red velvet which is my favorite and it was so good. I ate...too many slices.

Her bark is that of a Pomeranian or chihuahua. Very high pitched. She keeps me laughing.

Man, I am crampy today and I think just had a contraction. This baby better not be getting any ideas, I'm only 36+1.

The H got up with Em this morning so I'm hiding in the bedroom.
He's also taking her to gymnastics. It's getting to the point where I'm afraid my water will break in the foam pit or something equally awful.
I'm just trying to decide if I want to get a pedicure while they're gone or veg at home and get the pedicure later for an additional break.

I slept ok last night but was up for the day at 6:30 even though the kid was still asleep. She just woke up as a stuffed animal today. “I’m a stuffed animal! I’m a stuffed animal! Come find me!”

We decided to come and visit my parents this weekend - we live in VA and they are in Delaware. I’ll drop H off in Baltimore tomorrow on the way home for a conference so I’m solo parenting through Wednesday. With 3 kids. Someone hold me.
We stopped at a rest area and I reached down to grab my purse ONLY it wasn’t in the car. I left it at home.
One day my brain will work again. Right?!

I keep having occasionally low cramps and back pain, but it’s only in the evenings and goes away.
I’m not holding my breath.

I just spent the past half hour throwing up so the new plan is relax until just before my H and Em are coming home, then run to the mall and Target by myself. I think I'll go get my pedicure tomorrow.

I will NEVER FORGET what that looked like. 👀 Yes, I lost mine the first time in one chunk about 30 seconds before my water broke and I was like WTF that sucker was huge then water broke and I was like “oh”. Second time I lost bits and pieces but made it to c/s day.
