I woke up before 5:30 to pee for the second time last night and couldn't go back to sleep. I stayed in bed for over 40 minutes. Lame.
When G wakes up the three of us are going out to breakfast (DH's request) then he is dropping me off at my mom's so my mom and I can have a day out of town. I'm super excited. It will probably be the last time we do this for like a year. I'm also happy G will have a full day with just DH. She is glued to him lately so she will love it.
Tomorrow we might do a early morning park trip before coming home and cleaning/normal chores kind of day.
Oh! and the contractor got the frame of the building put up yesterday! Ahhhh so excited to see the progress!
My kid has been waking up at 7am all week for me. It's been lovely. Today, I'm working and DH is staying home. E woke up at 6:30. Sorry, H.
Tomorrow, volunteering at church. I think it's promotion day, so I think E will be in the "wobblers" room instead of the infant room where I volunteer. *cries, sniff*

We grabbed breakfast at McDonald's and did some grocery shopping. Now I have to do some grading and clean up real quick around the house before we pick up my MIL at the airport this afternoon. Not sure what our plans are for the rest of the day/tomorrow. It's hot as hell outside so I don't want to go anywhere but I also don't want to sit around talking about how the baby's not here yet, how I'm feeling, etc.
I've been super overwhelmed by the kids lately, so this weekend I'm escaping from the house. Except I'm super boring and all my hobbies are usually done at home. My only plan is to go to a coffee shop and read my new Harry Potter book, which I'm so excited about! Any thoughts about what to do?
Here is a funny story, although it may be less funny if you don't know my mom. So for everyone except @opal, haha.
It's been unusually hot here. Last week I was hanging out with my mom while M was sitting on my lap. I said "ugh, it's hot as balls out there!" and M looked so excited and yelled "BALLS?!" I'm an excellent influence. My mom laughed at M and the expression, which I've never used before. Then, earlier this week my mom asked if I wanted to go for a walk. I said yes, but not on that day because it was hot as balls. Yesterday, my mom called about walking again. She said "do you want to go for a walk today, or is it still hot as balls?" I told her that it feels like 39 (102 F), and she replied "that's nuts!"

katiek I'm just starting the new Harry Potter book today! Any thoughts on it yet?
I hardly slept last night. I just couldn't fall asleep even though I was exhausted. I finally fell asleep at 2am, only to have H wake me up at 3:30 because he wanted sex. So from then until 6:30 I only dozed. I did get to Sam's Club early. I also went to the farmers market.
Today I plan on staying indoors. It's way too hot out. I plan on reading and making some pickles and pickled beets. A nap will be in my future too.
@emtmissy and katiek, I just finished the new Harry Potter book a couple days ago. I was like meh, meh, meh, okay this is pretty cool, liked it by the end. It took me a while to get into it.
I have the HP book but didn't start it yet. I heard some less than stellar things about it, and I'm nervous - I don't want to ruin the series for myself. I'm a little skeptical that it will be good, considering it wasn't written by Rowling.
@emtmissy pooh8402katiek I have the book too. SO excited to read it, but I typically don't like to put books down, so I have to wait until I have a few hours to spare to read it all the way!
I worked for 7 hours today, then went out to lunch with one of my best friends who just came home! It was so nice to connect again after him being gone all summer teaching! I thought we might have lost some of our friendship from him being gone, but it is like he never left which was a huge relief!

Being THAT pregnant in this type of weather sucks. I seacond amaranth , go see a movie. Are you getting excited about the induction tomorrow?
Sort of? I don't think it's really sunk in yet, I'm sure tomorrow I'm going to be really emotional.
But I'm definitely ready to meet this LO and ready to not be sick anymore. I've spent the last 9 month puking my guts out, I just want to feel normal again!

HoneySpider I'm so excited for that LO of course, but I am excited for you to feel better! You have been so miserable. Keeping ya in my T&Ps through all of this.
