I'm 2 for 2 with crying during childbirth class. We had our second class last night, and we watched a birth video. I cried when they handed the baby to the mom and she started crying. Ugh.
We're taking MIL to a Mexican place tonight for an early Mother's Day celebration. Yum!
I find it really annoying when the Kindle edition of a book is more expensive than the hard copy. Take my extra dollar for convenience, Amazon. Whatever.
It is so nice today, I biked to work and just had on a super thing long sleeved shirt. Tomorrow is BFF's bachelorette. I am hosting a brunch at our place, then we are going to see Kinky Boots, dinner at this gorgeous French restaurant then probably head out for drinks or something after. So much to do tonight, we also have the cleaner coming for the first time!
I am in a workweek step competition on Fitbit with SILs and some of their friends. I have 74k steps since Monday to right now and I am in THIRD PLACE. These people need to sit down.
I went for a run in the rain this morning. I feel like this is just life now. It's never going to stop raining.
I have a vaginal ultrasound this afternoon because I'm having bleeding after sex and pelvic pain. The dr couldn't find any causes during a routine exam so now I get to go do this. Womanhood. Yayyyy.
When no one else seemed to have caught DS's stomach bug after almost two days, I thought we were clear. Nope, DD started throwing up last night. At least DH was home for this round? She's mostly better this morning, so she and I are having a lazy day home since I'm sure as heck not sending her to school.
I'm hosting brunch at my house on Sunday for my family (6 adults, 2 kids) and I still have no idea what I'm making, nor have I done any food shopping. My mom doesn't really eat eggs and my brother's girlfriend doesn't eat any pork (she has a pet pig) so I'm trying to think of something that will please everyone without having to spend my entire Saturday making a ton of stuff.

I'm so, so tired. The baby woke up three times, which I'm not upset about because she's only eight weeks old so she's supposed to wake up often, but my 2.5 yo woke up twice...each time was right after I finally fell back to sleep after nursing. I cannot wait til Sunday when I can sleep in.
My head is in vacation mode. We leave for Cancun on Monday and I've been plotting our Ireland trip all week. Subsequently, my productivity has been shit. I really need to drill down and get some stuff done today.
I'm working from home today. I've been feeling so scattered, disorganized, and behind at work, so am going to spend the day cleaning out my inbox, getting my to do list up to date, and starting make notes about how to do my job, so that I can train the person covering for my maternity leave.
It's been so busy at work lately, I just want to crawl in a hole. I got here this morning a half hour after the phones opened and there were 4 calls waiting already. Aaaahhh.
We're going down the shore for the day tomorrow, so I really hope it doesn't rain all day. It probably will, though. AND it looks like it's going to rain all next weekend when H and I are there for our anniversary, so... fun times. This rain gives no fucks and is never going away.
After being home sick all week I feel well enough to make it into the office this morning. I'm going to miss my Orange is the New Black marathon. I worked my way all the way up to season 3 starting from the beginning. Back to reality.
I ran for 15 minutes this morning. That makes 3 days this week. I am increasing by 5 minutes next week. I have 11,000 steps on my fit bit already this morning.
I have no real plans this weekend, which I love. The next 3 weekends are packed with stuff to do so I really just want to relax this weekend.
My oldest dd cleaned the living room and kitchen last night. It was awesome to come home after 12 hours to a clean house. She is an awesome kid all around.

Which restaurant??
I have a friend like this. They are banned from doing challenges with us. It's crazy.

One of the girls is a cook at a restaurant so she is on her feet all day and she ALWAYS WINS, so this time I decided I would work my ass off but SIL now spends all day every day just walking lol. She doesn't work and her kids are in school full time so I guess she has lots of time. I have a desk job and sit on my ass all day, boo.
One of the couples in a group that DH and I are in just lost their mom. We got to know her over the years, and she was such a wonderful person. They moved away last year, so we aren't able to express sympathies in person. I talked to DH about sending flowers, and actually just got done ordering them. DH just texted after talking to another mutual friend that is also in the group. This friend told DH that J's MIL had passed away over the weekend. DH was texting me to tell me, and said that she was a beautiful soul (which she was). DH and I had literally just spent 2 days talking about whether we should send flowers (which we did) and if it would be tacky to have the group sign a sympathy card (we thought it was, so we didn't do it), but it's good to know that he's actually listening when we have a conversation!

Colette Grand Café!
I've just concluded they're the crazy ones.
Ah! You'll love it! I went a few weeks ago and it is amazing.
We're telling both sets of parents we're pregnant on Sunday. I'm bursting with excitement and keeping silent these next two days is going to be torture. This is the first grandchild for both sets, they're all going to be over the moon.
