I went to get DS1 out of his crib this morning and he was sans-PJs. He recently figured out how to undo the snap at the top of zip up PJs, and I knew he could do zippers, but I was very surprised to find him sitting in just his diaper when I went to get him this morning!!

Nymeria mine has learned how to take his pajama pants off, so we sometimes find a shirt and diaper kid! Or a pants-around-the-ankles kid 😄

I found Michigan Blueberry Lemon Streusel bread in the clearance section of the grocery store and made French toast with it. I'm very pleased with that life decision right now....

It's pretty cool out today. That means work has apparently shut off the air completely. I'm absolutely roasting at my desk right now.

🎶Happy due date to me🎶😒
Sitting at my 40w appointment. Birth does not feel imminent but who knows.
Other than that, plans include buying a car this afternoon! Anyone have a Honda Pilot and want to tell me what a fab decision we’re making?

getdownpleaseI have a 2007 pilot so it's not the captain seats one. I absolutely love it! It's perfect to put a potty seat in the back of you need to or to change the kids. You can fold down half of the third row or the whole thing. You can't fit a rear facing seat in third row though and climbing IS involved with getting back there. Worked perfectly when I had DD, bonus baby, and other toddler too. I could still fit stroller and everything. Gas isn't awful. Cheap parts. I hear a lot of praise for the newer version with captain chairs but WAY out of my price range.

I'm very, very uncomfortable today. My hips, groin, and back are hurting. DS is moving but they're like...small movements. I'm leaving work at lunch to WFH the rest of the day. I'm going to drink some OJ and lay on my side when I get there and see what kind of movement I can get out of him.

Baby has been very quiet so far today. I feel mentally, emotionally and physically drained.

Baby has been very quiet so far today. I feel mentally, emotionally and physically drained. I am too. Naturally, as soon as I get home and plop myself on the couch he starts moving around. People at work keep saying "Oh! I'm so surprised to see you still here!" There's only two of us managing our student information system for a college with 1100+ employees and 26K students. I literally could but I can't let myself phone it in yet. I just keep plugging away.

Thanks pixiepink24! This one is a 2016. Thankfully DS1 is in a HBB so that should work in the 3rd row.

Anyone have a Honda Pilot and want to tell me what a fab decision we’re making? There's a thread on GD right now about SUVs. Someone is looking to buy and the Honda Pilot, among others in the same size class, are mentioned and discussed.

Nymeria and tbirdlove DD is starting to try to take her pajamas off too. Thankfully she hasn't succeeded yet though because anytime she had access to her diaper it immediately gets ripped off 😟

Guys, I wish this baby would have come last week when I was having some good days and my patience had returned. I was feeling good and confident and ready. Yesterday and today I'm in the dumps big time. I haven't been able to get myself to do anything for the past two days - I have sat/laid on my couch or in bed pretty much all day. My patience is going back downhill quickly. I just had a crying meltdown in the shower. I'm done. But I don't want baby to come while I'm feeling so mentally and emotionally awful. The end of pregnancy is a cruel, cruel joke.

DD has been taking off her pjs in the night and putting on dresses. It’s the funniest thing to see what she has managed to put on in the middle of the night.

Hugs tbirdlove. I fee like irritability / just not wanting to do anything can be really common at the end. Baby coming could be what pushes you out of the "funk".

I’m sorry you’re feeling that way tbirdlove. I feel like you’re describing me, last week. I was crabby, not motivated, snapping at DH and basically a mess. I’m feeling better now (for no apparent reason other than maybe hormones?), I hope your mood turns around or at the very least baby comes soon!

Thanks Nymeria and chriskoo. I hope it passes soon. This shift seems to be for no apparent reason as well. Nothing has happened to set it off. These volatile hormones make me nervous for the massive post partum hormonal crash 😕

I hope your mood swings the other way soon tbirdlove . I'm feeling the same way. I'm just exhausted in every since sense of the word. I'm tired of being sore, uncomfortable, not sleeping well, etc etc and I'm just tired of being pregnant. Like I told MH last night, I've been waiting for "this day" (whenever it is) for over a year now and I just want it to be here. ETA: sense not since

My DD has had WAY too much screen time today. I just want to curl up on the couch and play on my phone. I’m looking forward to tomorrow because her babysitter is coming so she’ll get to go to the park/bike ride/active play and I’ll get to be lazy with less guilt.

I’m looking forward to tomorrow because her babysitter is coming so she’ll get to go to the park/bike ride/active play and I’ll get to be lazy with less guilt. Commiseration! My DS is watching a LOT of tv every single day. He's obsessed with a few movies/shows and often demands to watch them before he even finishes breakfast 😐 I gave up fighting it. He's gonna be watching a lot of tv over the next few months while we continue on in survival mode. I try not to feel guilty about it anymore and try to remind myself to be grateful that my kid is actually entertained for decent stretches of time by it! I'll probably have a hell of a time weaning him off the tv eventually, but we'll deal with that when the time comes. DH has been in charge of all the fun outings, walks and outside playtime since I can't manage 🙁 Hopefully soon we'll be able to have more small family outings and that will help.

I really could use some more coffee, but I've been kind of lax recently about the 200mg max so I'm trying to be good. But I'm SOOOO tired today.
