Between my appointments and daycare kids being sick, I haven't watched kids all week. It's been nice, except I have gotten anything done. I'm going to try and accomplish something today.
My parents bought my kids a large, outdoor trampoline and my dad's delivering it today. They're going to be so surprised and excited!

Btw JC Penney is having a sale on the 5 packs of onesies. They're$12.6 and if you use the code spring9 you can get an additional 20% off..I got 20 onesies for $40.
I made SUCH a big deal about not having not immediate family at the hospital and guess who comes by before our parents or Em.... My uncle!! My H is sleeping and I'm really debating just not telling him.

Not horrible? I got a 4 hour stretch of sleep and 2-3 after that. A’s still up sleeping but G woke up an hour early. So we’re watching Paw patrol while I lay on the couch trying to keep my eyes open.

Thanks for confirming that I need all those pictures. Goodbye $$$$. I also was told that at the end of April the preschool is having a graduation ceremony. I don’t think my hormones can take this! 😭

auri those pictures our great. I guess one perk to my son refusing to get his picture taken at preschool is that I don’t have to worry about buying any.

I’m seriously in denial that we are having babies already.
Granted I’m tired of being pregnant BUT it just seems so surreal.

polson I'm so happy to ready your good news. What a relief! So I've had a fun day. At 8:20 this morning I got a panicked email from DS's teacher asking the class parents for a chaperone on today's field trip. Her chaperone had canceled due to illness. So probably against my better judgment, about 35 min later I was on a bouncing school bus with 30 squealing singing kindergarteners 😂. We went on a short hike at a nature sanctuary and learned about maple syrup production. DS was so thrilled I was there. If the bus ride won't put me into labor, nothing will. Nothing.

All right calendula baby - this serves as your official eviction notice. GET OUT.

I just got out of my checkup and had my OB go ahead and do a cervical check. I'm at 1.5cm but not really effaced at this point. She can feel baby's head but he hasn't come down much.
So basically, it's not nothing! But could also mean nothing. I'm glad that things aren't locked up tight, at least.
Also, my mom came with me and got to hear the heartbeat, so that was special ❤️

calendula, OMG I cannot even imagine. I want an award for taking my kid to swim lessons and grocery shopping. I want a nap, but I'm trying to finish a bit more homework. I am dying. I am prepared to say no to everything for at least the next 6 weeks. I am so done. It sounds like fun in theory though, so I'm glad you had a good time.

I HATE when people try to suggest baby names to me. Brought to you by my MIL. 1. I’ll never choose anything she picks because I’ll never hear the end of how “she named the baby.” 2. It’s never anything I like and I don’t know what to say? “Nope, hate it.”??

I’m generally brutally honest- mostly because “omg that awful” slips out before I can filter myself🙈🤷🏼♀️ ETA- and I know I’ve mentioned it before but my MIL is the #1 resason we don’t announce names until baby is here😬

Ok one was awful but only compared to my DD’s name. We accidentally gave my kid first and middle names that are plants. I didn’t realize until much later because it isn’t super overt. But my MIL gave me the suggestion of Lily Rose the other day and I laughed so hard. People would think I’m some sort of crazy plant lady.

My mom suggested my DS' middle name but I had already told SO that I'd want to use it before we were even pregnant-family name and all that jazz. My mom still tells people that she named him and it's so obnoxious.

What is the easiest way to post pictures on mobile? I usually prefer to get on here with my computer, but I was trying to post some pictures last night and couldn't get them to work. I was thinking it would be easier to figure this now before I have a mob wanting to see baby pictures. Thanks for asking this question — I was wondering too!

The kids were so sweet. Most of them had never been on a bus before so the ride there was hysterical. They would all squeal when the driver accelerated. I'm fortunate my hip pain has been better the last few days. Like, I couldn't walk on Tuesday. I did nap for an hour when I got home 😊

We waited until L was born to tell anyone his name. And then everyone wanted to know our second choice and I’m so glad we didn’t tell. H’s cousin is due soon and she announced the name, which was our second choice. When we talked to the ILs next, MIL said “oh I don’t care for that name” and she said FIL didn’t like it either and thought it sounded like a girl’s name. Cool.

Remember my friend who was so annoyed last time that we kept DS’ name a secret?
She came to visit last week and was bitching again about us being sooo secretive about B’s name. I wanted so badly to say- actually we told everyone but you. Because that’s what happened. Petty AF over here.

I got a lot done today, which feels good. Now I'm tired though and sitting with my feet up and my belly hanging out not wanting to do anything more. My kids are driving me nuts (I say that with all the love in the world). I think I'm just tired and irritable. DH will be home in a few hours, so he gets to take over.

My MIL is the worst, she’s pretty much why we keep our names secret. Not that we have a name yet to keep a secret. But with DD we did 😂

The baby had her follow up weight appt this morning and she lost half an ounce from Wednesday ☹. We had to do another bilirubin test and go back Monday for another weight check. I had a mini breakdown after because I feel like it's all on me to make sure she is eating and gaining and I'm failing. We went through this with DD1 but she had started gaining again by this point.

Hugs cp3. My DD had weight gain issues too. It took her until her 1m birthday to regain her birth weight. You’ve got this! Is there any way to do a weighted feed or see an LC soon?
