I have bronchitis and I'm six months pregnant.
Every time I cough I pee.
I'm wearing pads, but it's bad enough that I stayed home from my SIL's house today because I was afraid I'd pee on their couch or their floor and I couldn't live that down.
So H took the kid and I hung out here, sat on a towel, and watched Love It or List It all afternoon.

We watched Homeward Bound with the girls before bedtime......I still fucking love that movie.
I'm missing my AZ friend so much lately and I feel so dumb about it. She moved in August of 2013 and I haven't heard her voice since - we've obviously emailed/texted/FB during that whole time but it just hasn't been the same. She's an older lady and my second mom - things with my own mom are so superficial/strained and I just feel like I could use a little pep talk from her. In person. I really miss her hugs. (I have a trip booked to see her over Labor Day......and I will never, ever go 2 years without visiting again!)
My husband is amazing. Not only did he build a deck, and lay a bunch of grass in our backyard this week, but today he surprised me with an upgraded engagement ring. Our anniversary isn't until may 23rd, but he said he wouldn't be able to keep it a secret for a month. Lol. We didn't have a whole lot of money when we got married, so he swore he would upgrade my ring one day. I wasn't too worried about it, but I guess it's something he really wanted to do. He's awesome. I think I'll keep him.
underwaterrhymes I'm sorry you don't feel well. I had a bad cold during 1st tri and I remember crying to my H that I just wanted to stop peeing myself!
The potato chips? We tried them last week, they were good!
We are all exhausted from traveling home and the time change and everything. I'm excited to go thru all my camera pictures! Sorrynotsorry to all my FB/ig friends who are probably already sick of my pics from my phone

We just got home from an impromptu trip to Cooperstown and Baseball Hall of Fame. It was a great trip. I could spend hours in that town, and I could spend so much money.
We are watching the White House Correspondents Dinner on C-Span.

We had our crew of friends over tonight. We were shocked go learn one of our mutual friends is getting a divorce. We had no clue there were problems.
And then we all told stories about how young and stupid we were when we got engaged/married. It is weird how you can be so stupid and things work out so well.
I'm out of town visiting DHs family. DS has had trouble sleeping since we are out of his comfort zone and as a result he's been kind of wild. Yesterday DHs cousin made me feel like a bad mother. I was frustrated and it wasn't my best moment. Today I realized he is a total asshole. I can't stand him. He makes snide comments at everyone because he's a small small little man and he treated our waiter like dirt (I think thats very telling) so I no longer care and I'm going to brush off what he said and move on.

I'm like, 100 weeks pregnant, and I obviously look like I'm at end. I'm huge.
Anyway, we went the farmers market today and this guy running one of the stands would not stop commenting on my size. He was saying things like "are you having twins!?" When I responded with a very short "no" he said are you sure?! Then went on to say things like "wow, they must really grow them big where you are" and "you're really big, when are you due?!" I stopped responding but when he wouldnt shut his trap I finally said "you know, this really isn't okay." I'm proud that I actually said something, because I usually freeze in situations like that. He was taken aback that I called him out and my dad (who witnessed the whole exchange) later said he could tell I was getting irritated but that I was kinda rude to the guy. Uh no, just because I'm pregnant does not give him the right to comment on my size and I don't need to stand there and take it.
I really don't get why pregnancy makes people lose all social graces.

E has been growling on and off in his sleep for the last 20 minutes. He is passed out cold but keeps growling.
Tomorrow will be the longest stretch me and E will be solo since I've been in treatment. I feel ok about it, like nothing is going to happen but I'm anxious that H will be at work and it'll be all on me for the first time in over a month.
My mom gave me $150 in Target GC. We spent $50 on food/randoms today but we still have $100 and I have no idea what we need/want. I need some sandals and summer dresses but our targets out here suck. Online might be my only option. I hate shopping online (unpopular opinion?)

H is OOT and my mom timed her trip down to see me/the boys for this weekend. She has been a huge help and it's been nice to have regular adult conversations and not be alone in the evenings.
Of course, we still got into a fight tonight. Ugh. DS1 slipped off the step stool in the bathroom right before baths and scraped his butt in an awkward place. He was understandably very upset and in pain, I was stressed and she just kept saying "you know, he fell on his tailbone" on repeat. I finally snapped "what do you want me to do about it?!" and she snapped back at me. Ugh ugh ugh.
I think we're okay, but as we were discussing it once the kids were down to bed, she said "You know, that is the last time I will ever say anything about the boys in that situation." I know she meant it as a dig, but honestly, it's a relief to me. When I'm trying to manage a stressful situation with the kids, her standing there giving her 2 cents over and over really doesn't help. Like, at all.
Kind of a brain dump, but I needed to get it out. Thanks.
farmvillelover - Not stupid! I wanted N to have some new stuff, too.
i'm trying to justify by saying noah was born in january and this one is august so i think i may need to fill in some seasonal gaps.
you know, bc we get seasons in OC.
HA! No, I know that feeling. Q was born in October, and N in February, and surprisingly there are lots of hand-me-downs that don't work for N, especially PJs.
