Hope everyone started the weekend off with a good sleep in 😉
We are thinking about taking D to the zoo this morning. He's never been yet and it's supposed to be really nice. Still not sure what we will do tonight for celebrations though.
I also told my friends I was pregnant yesterday. Felt good to share the news with others!

I took both kids to the grocery store alone this morning (yes, even 1.5 years later, this still terrifies me lol) and they were both remarkably well behaved. I am so, so excited to take the kids to the parade! Ours is Monday, which is a little weird, but it means DH can come so I am grateful I don't have to wrangle two kids alone. Also STMs I just had to share this article because it is SO SPOT ON and hilarious!! I wanted to share it on FB but was afraid my favorite POOPCUP friends would see it as passive aggressive 😜 www.scarymommy.com/parents-one-perfect-child-preschool-age/Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Lazy weekend here so far. This morning we've done exciting things like return dish soap to Target and look at a new mattress. Yay adulting. It's finally nap time so I get to play on my phone!

I have had the grossest metallic taste in my mouth for the past couple weeks. I swear this is the cause for most of my nausea. Nothing gets rid of it 😩

Nothing gets rid of it 😩 I wouldn't call mine metallic, but constantly have a disgusting taste in my mouth. DH thinks it's reflux, which it doesn't start until after I eat breakfast so I guess I could believe it. But the metallic taste is a pregnancy thing.

Took our kiddos to the Omaha Zoo this morning. Only there for 4 hours and hit my 10,000 steps! But note to self, I will never do that zoo on a Saturday, especially if a holiday weekend, ever again!

I don't know. But it's nasty

Really hope it doesn't last the whole pregnancy!

Really hope it doesn't last the whole pregnancy! that's exactly my issue too! Food is the only thing that temporarily gets rid of the taste. I don't remember this when I was pregnant with my DD so I really hope it doesn't last long!

Hello! Relaxing morning here then I realized that my glasses didn't just need an adjustment but that DS Managed to nearly completely rip an arm off of them to the point where they can't be fixed. So we ran to LensCrafters and I got new frames. Then we went to Target and Wife and I got NASA shirts to match DS's NASA tank for the 4th. I wish I had a long weekend. We have to work Monday but I do have the 4th off.

I had to always have a tic tac or mint in my mouth or I felt like I was going to get sick. It was not fun. I think it went away sometime around 20 weeks or so.

I recently discovered the magic of tictacs! I'm gonna need to stock up on them because it really has been helping a lot!

Happy long weekend everyone!
The last couple of days I was throwing up like crazy but feeling much better now!
We told my parents last night and they were beyond excited. Watching fireworks from the dock tonight and then going to see my husband's parent tomorrow and telling them.

Do you live close to me? Sorry if we have discussed this 😂😂 Omaha is about a two hour drive for us. We went to the zoo a few months ago but I want to go back to see the new playscape! You are brave to go on a holiday weekend. Hope you had fun! Also with zoos you just never know. We went to our tiny zoo this past Monday. The weather was crappy so I figured it would be dead. Nope, approximately 3872 daycare groups there! Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

The new playscape and splash pad are pretty awesome! We weren't prepped for the splash pad so we didn't try it. But it looked awesome. The playscape had lots of sand and water areas so I feel like you have to know what you're getting into to really be ready for it! My kids love the sting ray encounter.

Just spent two days hanging with my family at my parents house since DH was working a lot. On one hand it was great because they were all over DS and I barely had to parent. But then I had to be convincing about how DH and I were taking a month off from drinking as a weight loss/cleanse type thing. Not sure they totally bought it. The hardest part was acting totally normal when I felt gross. There were a couple moments when people would be debating what lunch or a snack or something was going to be and I was thinking, "if I don't eat right now I'm going to die!" Or opening a seltzer and suddenly realizing it was disgusting at that particular moment. Etc. If I get good news at my ultrasound on Thursday I will so enjoy finally just being honest about it with them!

Got startled at MIL's tonight and it sparked a seizure. Don't worry everyone, my day seizures are partial seizures so I don't black out and my vision just goes haywire. It's now followed by exhaustion and a killer headache. I think I'll be headed to bed early.
Hope everyone has a great long weekend!

Sorry jessijean! Even if it's something you are used to it sounds painful and uncomfortable and I'm sorry you go through that. Yesterday we celebrated Canada Day in a nearby town with my grandma and parents. The parade was awesome, and the first one we've taken our kids too. Plus the 2 bags of candy and toys they collected throughout it made it that much better for them haha. But DS says it was his favourite part of the day. Following that was a lunchtime BBQ, hit up the bouncy castles and petting zoo, and the theatre was running free cartoons all day so that was awesome, they were just starting to get hot and tired and it was a perfect way to cool down and take a break. Watched a couple performances in the street concert but went home shortly after to take a break and get everyone settled so we could watch our football team's home opener. It was a crazy game but we lost boo. It is supposed to get HOT HOT this week. We have a birthday party at the pool this afternoon so that will be fun I'm sure. Have a good one!

That means you're not a POOPCUP then, you're a POONCUP- parent of one nutty child under preschool-age. I'm a POONCUP, too. Surely our next babies will be calm and easy, right!?!?

Beautiful day at the pool. We got here at around 10:30. DS passed out in his stroller after lunch and is still asleep so Wife and I are relaxing in lounge chairs and taking turns in the pool. It's so nice. He naps for 2 hours on a cot at DC w out an issue but on the weekends he always naps on us.
