Happy things!

[matildasun]

They are currently installing bike racks at my school.

I picked up what I though was a candy bar wrapper from the floor and it was actually a fun sized candy bar. Surprise chocolate!

What is making you happy today?

The cafeteria was serving the yummiest breakfast today (ham, egg, and cheese on a homemade biscuit).
I have yoga at lunch.

Childrens programs that actually teach something instead of just being obnoxious.

I had my NT scan this morning and baby looks great. I was so worried and feel so relieved.

I off after today until next wednesday. WOOHOO!!!!!

I just ate ice cream bar 2 of the 3 in the box of Magnum double peanut butter bars I bought yesterday after seeing farmvillelover's post about peanut butter cupcakes.

There's a high chance that bar 3 will not make it to see tomorrow.

Also, our new nanny started today and I luuuurve her so. She watched DD PT when she was in preschool and I feel like the order of the universe has been restored. I'm such a sucker for continuity and rituals and things that feel warm and familiar.

Like times a million!!

My house is reasonably clean. Yay for being old and having low standards?

A book I've been waiting for from the library is finally available.

I'm also stoked for Friday. My BIL, sister, H and I are going to Busch Gardens. We've never been and are all so excited!

[tulips]

H was home with the kids while I was at the dentist this morning. I walked in to a mega fort in the living room and a happy little boy.

I ordered myself a coloring book and colored pencils from Amazon and it got delivered earlier and so did a shirt I got from banana republic! Good mail day for me!

We are going to a birthday party tonight. Yay for not having to make dinner!

this remids me that there is dinner in the crock pot!

The most nerve-wracking part of this job interview process is over, as of yesterday. I slept well last night for the first time in two weeks not worrying and going over answers in my head.

I've lost 12 pounds

My husband has Monday off work

I had a chocolate chip bagel this morning!

[Deleted]

H and I are "hire the experts" kind of folks. Today I had my AC repaired, fireplace fixed and tuned up, and my tub drain fixed. I'm a little poorer (but less than 500$ for all of it). So worth it. These things all make me happy.

[anna7602]

@natariru, crossing everything possible and asking Nossa Senhora to watch out for you!

I am about 16 hours away from a 4 day weekend. I am having a day with just DS1 and I on Friday and he is SO excited.

[robyn]

DD and DH were playing yesterday evening while I made dinner and she reached over and patted his face and said "dada". It was so sweet. I think he may have teared up a little bit.

I fixed a copier/printer problem at work and saved us $1,500.00 in parts we didn't need.

We have lots of fun social plans for the long weekend. After an entire summer of house stuff, it's so nice to settle back into a busy social life.

I'm going on another Phish bender this weekend <) 3 days in Denver this time! Won't be the same without you, though, matildasun  (wilted)

My mom visited today with my 3yo niece. She gave me some pointers to help me with DS. And she got him to sleep for 30 minutes!

And yes, this!

[glitzy07]

I have tomorrow off work to go to the MN State Fair. I cannot wait to EAT ALL THE THINGS!

[awkwardpenguin]

DD is taking her second nap of the day, which is great because she wouldn't nap yesterday and was so overtired.

We're going to Ann Arbor for the weekend! We have tons of plans to see friends and it should be great.

I got a new Nissan Rogue this weekend! It's the first new vehicle I've ever bought. I'm having fun driving it around and using all the new features my Subaru didn't have.

ETA: Who are the other Rogue owners on this board?  @callmefia  AmyRI  Do either of you have the Divide and Hide storage system in the back?  I'm trying to figure out if I'll use it that much or if I should just get a cargo tray and cover that up.

Have fun. I am a little sad about not going.

I got a squinter on 4 (don't judge me) tests this morning.

NO ONE REACT. I'M ONLY ALLOWING MYSELF NOT TO BE SAD. No excitement yet. Beta is on Saturday.

I will obviously pee on everything possible every 12 hours until then.

You didn't tell me it was 4 tests?

Pee after dinner, pee tomorrow morning, pee every 6 hours until beta and tell me there is a line everytime.

I just bought DD her first pair of tap and ballet shoes. I feel like this is a major "girl mom" real gut of passage which I've been looking forward to

Alright.  Can we agree to HATE Florida?

ETA:  Shit.  I quoted myself.  Lol.  page

We sure can! It's great to be a Gator hater!!

Also I think Steve Spurrier is actually a pretty nice guy.

I just went to college while he was at Florida and I got real damn sick of my team being his bitch.

Fun!

I drive a 2013 Rogue, so it didn't have that feature available.  It has one hidden storage compartment under the trunk mat near the spare tire that I use for car emergency supplies.  I bought this (http://www.target.com/p/rubbermaid-hard-sided-cargo-bin/-/A-14461028#prodSlot=medium_1_1) small crate thing with rubber feet so it doesn't slide around the trunk that holds emergency diaper supplies, my reusable bags, and whatever handful of items I'm avoiding returning any given week.  That's the extent of the organization I've needed, FWIW. 

The back window is so small and I have tinted rear windows, so you can't see in well enough that I've felt compelled to have a cover.  I expected to miss it (I used one when I drove a Versa before my Rogue) but I haven't.

I bought a size 16 bathing suit for the first time in... 6ish years? And a coworker complimented me on my weight loss.

The girls are obsessed with their baby dolls. K has to carry one around with her pretty much all the time. Sometimes she just walks around carrying as many dolls as she can hold. J is also getting in on it sometimes and its reviving the short lived doll phase he had about a year ago.

My sister and I loved dolls growing up and I'm super excited to have an excuse to buy and play with dolls. Plus, honestly, watching them love their babies is actually better than playing with them myself as a kid.

[blueberry10]

We bought a new car last night! I feel fancy.
