I just got back from taking DD to the eye dr for her yearly checkup. Vision is good, no glasses needed (yet). Now I need to try to find something that I can talk her into doing inside. She really wants to play outside, but it's so hot out that just standing there for a few minutes is making me nauseous.

I feel so badly because we got her all of these outside toys but it's so hot and our neighborhood/backyard is SWARMING with mosquitoes. It doesn't matter what time of day we go out, how many preventative measures I take, within minutes we both have 5-10 mosquito bites.

I still get so nervous about posting with any regularity here, just because I'm afraid I'll "jinx" things. I was also almost in tears after buying maternity shorts over the weekend because I kept thinking "what if I have to return these?" PGAL brain is such a mind game.
I'm so thankful to be having symptoms, but holy cow is pregnancy harder with a toddler. If it's 9:30am and we haven't gotten out of the house yet, he's climbing the walls and driving me nuts. At least I usually feel best in the mornings - afternoons and evenings are when I'm most nauseous and exhausted. So much for morning sickness.

I'm sorry katietopaz. It is hard with a toddler but I think we need to be easy on ourselves. This is just a blip for them and if they need to watch a little extra TV for a while, so be it. Elmo is totally Parenting for me lately.

I told my boss today, expecting him to say, "I knew it!" because that's what he said when I told him about being pregnant two years ago. He was SHOCKED. Hah.

We ended up watching a movie, taking a nap, and I got out of playing tag by suggesting swimming. I kinda feel like I won with my negotiations today.

I'm getting some bloodwork done and then heading to meet my mom and brother to go to the Lady Gaga concert tonight. I'm super excited! Just hoping my nausea and fatigue don't kill the vibe.

Leaf 🌱 leatherpants+1 ArielMermaid. The show was AMAZING. I will forever pay to see her because she is just next level always. I went to ArtRave a couple years ago and I wondered if this tour would be different since Joanne is a little more laid back than her past albums, but she did not disappoint. Still 100% entertaining from start to finish and the energy in there is like no other. I had a headache going in and then it was magically gone as soon as she started. Her mom and grandma were there and she talked a little bit about her grandma and late grandpa's relationship, dedicated a song to him, and was just so sentimental... and my pg emotions were all over the place. So final answer: you should go.

I wonder if I could talk DH into getting a king sized bed before this baby comes. This morning I woke up at the very edge of the bed. DH, DD, and the cat were star fishing the rest of it. I'm surprised I didn't fall off.

I'm surprised I didn't fall off. We bedshare so I'm dying for a king size bed, they're so expensive though ::sigh:: if you can swing it I really think you should. There will be deals around Christmas too.

We don't bedshare so it's not usually a problem. It's mostly just when she wakes up in the middle of the night DH will have her climb in with us instead of putting her back in her room. Unfortunately our mattress is fairly new, so it'll be a while before a new one is on the table. But it is still nice to dream though

We're supposed to go to concert tonight. My H got me tickets for my birthday. I really don't feel like going. I didn't want to go earlier in the day and then I ate way too much and now I want to go even less.
But I skipped a concert for the same singer when I was almost exactly this pregnant with my daughter and I still regret it. So I feel like I need to go. BUT that was a much better venue and he was supporting a better album.
I'm torn.

King beds always feel so big to me. I understand why a lot of people love them, but I like being able to reach out and touch DH without having to roll twice. We're currently still sleeping in a full bed, and we're overdue for a new one. Not only is it getting lumpy, but we bedshared for a couple of months with DS and a full is...tiny for that. I'd like to at least upgrade to a queen.
I'd always said I wanted to get a new mattress before I got pregnant again, but I don't know that we'll really have the money for it in the next few months, especially if DH gets laid off.

cornpop Who do you have tickets to see? Dave Hause. He's from Philly and probably not super well known. But he has played one of my favorite concerts I've been to ever so I need to suck it up.

I want a king bed so badly but it would severely dwarf our bedroom. My H is dreading the day I pull out the Snoogle. (Although I'm thinking the Cozy bump looks way better so I may get that instead).
I booked a trip to San Francisco for our anniversary in October and chose the hotel solely based on the king sized bed.

So I did my hair and makeup, got dressed, and then threw up of my dinner. So no concert. Instead I'm sitting here nursing a Gatorade.
I normally hate Gatorade but it is oddly perfect after throwing up.
