I could use some positive vibes from everyone this afternoon— I have a stressful legal meeting to go to. When I bought my business I also bought the liability, and now I have to deal with some issues from before I owned it. Best case scenario is that we get everything resolved today, fingers crossed.

My goals to work on this week are: paying attention to correcting my posture, trying to focus on positivity, and continuing to try to eat better.

I read this while slouched in my desk chair eating potato chips, lol. Haha!!! Perfect! The posture thing is actually quite difficult. Now that I'm really focusing on it I'm noticing I have pretty lousy posture pretty much all the time. I'll probably have mac n cheese for lunch 😕 Getting the meal plans and proper grocery shopping back under control needs to be an upcoming goal. MH has been an amazing help, but he doesn't do so well with actually buying ingredients to make full meals. We end up with a lot of odds and ends when he goes without an official list.

Thanks for the positive thoughts Nymeria and tbirdlove. Today was stressful but it’s over, yay! I confess I indulged in a Diet Coke at dinner - it’s one of those things that’s probably fine in reasonable quantities but I’ve been avoiding it because it feels vaguely wrong lol.

Whoa. We went out to dinner tonight and I feel like I hardly ate anything really. And yet I am SO FULL! Ugh.

Ugh! My kid is sick. We came back from the mountains with a gnarly sore throat and white spots and fever. Took her to doctor yesterday but they said negative for strep and think HFM, but no spots on body.... Well since she woke up this morning at 7:30, she's puked every half hour. FML.

pixiepink24 - Oh no! Hope she feels better soon and it's not HFM!!! If she is diagnosed with HFM I'd give your OB/MW a call. Not to scare you since I can't remember where I'm remembering this from, but adults can catch it and I feel like that's one of the things that they like to keep an eye on if you get while pregnant.

NymeriaI'll definitely keep that in mind. I really feel like it's not HFM but I guess you never know. Waiting on the strep culture to come back tomorrow. Thankfully she just passed 30 mins without puking so we are gradually adding some water. I don't want to catch any of this!

I remember feeling my first obvious pop of baby movement right about 17 weeks with DS. It was on Easter that year so easy to remember the exact date.
So far this time I've maybe felt some flutters but I'm not completely positive and I'll be 17 weeks tomorrow. I kept expecting to feel more obvious movement earlier this time so I'm a little bummed it hasn't really happened.

I slept somewhat ok last night, but I'm still dragging today. There were some stupid tiny snow flurries again this morning and it was really cloudy and drab and generally rather miserable looking, so I'm sure that added to the tiredness. It's supposed to be in the low 60°s here tomorrow. Please, please, I hope it happens! And I hope I actually manage to get out and enjoy it a little.

We're finally getting a decent day today and even though the wind is chilly it's such a nice change. Need to get through some rain tomorrow then we're looking at upper 60's / low 70's and mostly sunny for Friday and Saturday! I'll have to take DS to the park or something.

The dog pulled L over this evening and now she has a split fat lip and H says one of her front teeth is a little wiggly. I was out when it happened and she was in bed when I got home so I haven't seen it for myself but I hope it's not as bad in the morning as it sounds like it could be.

knitty I hope she's ok! I have heard of young kid's teeth bouncing back after some serious crashes - so hopefully it's nbd if she gave them a good bump.

I've decided I'm ridiculous.
I'm already thinking about how when DS2 is ready for a convertible car seat I'll buy 2 more Chicco NextFits then I'll move the current one in my car to DH's truck and install the 2 new ones in my car so the 2 car seats in my car are the same color.
Brought to you by the fact that the color I bought was exclusive to BRU and therefore will no longer be available when it comes time to actually needing them.

I actually considered buying one convertible now to match the one in MH's car! It was a BRU exclusive color too and they happened to have a couple still in stock last time we were there! What's wrong with wanting them to match?! You have to buy two more anyways! I'd just put the two newer ones in whichever car the kids are in the most.

I am in a serious struggle bus. Normally I bounce back pretty quickly from jetlag, but between this pregnancy and my boys struggling with jetlag. I am just exhausted! Just need to get through today, but then this weekend I agreed to watch the boys alllllll day both days so MH could do a crash Portuguese language course. It will be really useful for him, but I don't want to adult the whole weekend!

At least you aren't having to contemplate a new car to make the seats fit! We have bought a third diono radian, and we haven't tested to see if all three actually fit across in the back seat of our Giulietta!! Mostly I think we are dreading having to sell the car and buy something else.

Mostly I think we are dreading having to sell the car and buy something else. Ugh - We already had to do that once! We had to get a new car just for the giant convertible seat to fit rear facing with room still for a front seat passenger. MH is tall so we had a difficult time finding something we could fit the carseat AND him in. We may even have to trade in his car this time with two carseats.... I hope you can fit them in! FX!
