What a day kam3100! How scary about daycare. I’m glad it was nothing serious and that your H was able to help out.

It’s been an odd day. First, there was a fire drill at my job. Usually no big deal, but I’m on the 19th floor. I’m going to be very sore for the next few days. Then I get an auto dial text from daycare that there was a fire, everyone is safe. Please come get your kid because we aren’t allowed back in the building. Luckily DH was working from home and was able to get her. . Oh no! Is daycare going to reopen quickly? Glad everyone is ok.

I’m glad there is another one close by.

I am taking a second sick day today. I feel like I have been hit by a bus and now I'm having mild chest pains when I breathe. I took the girls to daycare and considered pulling over a couple times to rest my head on the steering wheel, lol, daycare is 2 miles from home. I am pretty sure this is just a bad virus but it is so miserable. Fortunately, my husband is a saint and is picking up all of my slack with the kiddos.

pickles remodeling sounds like a huge PITA but it will be better to get it over with before the baby arrives! Like 1000x better. catspajamas2 I really hope you start to feel better soon! Glad everyone is safe kam3100After a 4 day weekend I was so glad to take DD to daycare this morning. Mama can't watch anymore Peppa Pig.

kam3100, I hope today is a better day! catspajamas2, Rest up! I couldn't figure out why I fell asleep on the couch last night at 8 PM. Then I woke up this morning congested. Yay. I'm getting sick. It's a super busy two weeks at work so I hope I can kick this soon! Glad your husband is able to help you out. goldenbird, Muffins sound like the best to me! I thought of you last night when I was grocery shopping and grapes were $2.49/lb. I want some $0.99/lb grapes!

My three year old asked me this morning when the baby is going to pop out of my tummy. My 4 yo responded "December 1st!" Ha! Not THAT long but long enough!
It's way too early to be thinking about a baby coming home, but they are both so excited for a new baby. It's going to be a long almost 5 months for them!

I guess she told my mom that my tummy wasn't growing fast enough, and she keeps asking when it's going to be big. I guess I should take that as a boost to my confidence, but it's hard for all of us to wait!

My kids haven't really seemed anxious or overly excited for the baby to be born. DD is old enough that she knows baby is due in July, so she doesn't ask when or how much longer. DS I think doesn't realize there's an actual person inside me and going to come home. He keeps saying it's my nephew who was born in December.

Idk what my deal is but the past two days I've been very sensitive and very grumpy. I feel like I'm in a funk.

Today has been a much better day than yesterday. I'm hoping to work out again. I always feel better after some elliptical and tv time.

I guess I should take that as a boost to my confidence, but it's hard for all of us to wait! My three yo was rubbing my belly when she made the comment so I think she thought it was big enough already:) At least the 4 yo has some concept of time. He knows September 1st is the EDD and he knows how many months are between now and then. We also talk about all the birthdays or other milestones between now and then. 3 is just a tough age for these things. Everything in the past happened yesterday and everything in the future happens tomorrow.
I do enjoy their enthusiasm though. It's very cute.

I haven't been able to work out the last few days and feel like I need to get back to it. It also improves my mood goldenbird.

I need people to stop asking me if (21 months old) DS is excited for baby sister. My mom is the worst, she asks me every week. He has no sense of things he can't see. He knows what a baby is, but not the brother/sister relationship. I have no idea when that starts as he's an only child.

We're stuck st children's hospital waiting for Js swallow study and it's taking forever. He's hungry and it's getting to be nap time.
Talked to my OB this morning and we have a plan. Hopefully something starts helping soon.

He still thinks I went to the hospital to pick up the baby, like it was Target or something. He just asked me last week when we're going to the hospital to pick up the new baby. So, yeah, they can only grasp so much of what's going on even at 3.
He'll get it when you bring the baby home and it never goes away. Not sure what your mom is looking for from your son.

She now doesn’t remember life before he was born, but she is super excited for a baby sister. DS is now 27 months and he just says “No” when we try to talk to him about the new baby, lol.

I mean we talk about all the time and he will point to my belly and say baby or kiss it but it's still a hard concept to grasp at this age. I just ordered him some books for his birthday that talk about bringing home a new baby.

I just ordered him some books for his birthday that talk about bringing home a new baby. E pokes my belly and says baby (she's just over 2.5) but I don't think she understands what's going on and probably won't until we bring the baby home. She has very little interest in other babies, so it's going to be interesting. catspajamas2, Hope you feel better soon! kam3100, that would have sent me into a panic attack, omg. Glad everyone is okay.

This baby will not stop kicking me down super low. Child. My uterus extends above my bellybutton. Please get your foot out of my cervix. In other exciting news, I finally convinced H that we need a Costco membership now that our Sam's club contract is up, sooo we're doing that today. Woo!

My shirts and pair of yoga pants I ordered from Motherhood got here and I'm loving them. I can't wait until my bump is a bit bigger to really fill everything out. I'm sure I'll be wearing it all post birth for quite awhile too.

My first two were very close in age so my oldest had no idea a baby was about to join our family. This time is so different and the girls get it for the most part. They are totally flummoxed as to how the doctor takes pictures of the baby inside my belly without cutting me open to do it though.
