Morning everyone! Last week before Christmas! All ready? H and I exchanged gifts last night, he couldn't wait. He got me a nice set of markers for my new coloring book, and a pair of mittens. I got him a coin set and a bathrobe. Good choices this year!
Countdown to baby awick14! Hope you are holding up okay.
I am so tired this morning. And it is once again freezing here. But it is a short week and then other than one meeting on the 29th, no coming to the office until Jan 3rd Just need to get through this week. I still have a little bit of shopping to do this week that I aim to finish tomorrow.
Not much going on--minimal pregnancy symptoms this weekend which always makes me nervous :/
DH is home today with a head cold/cough. I'm less sympathetic and more "keep away from my baaaaybeee! Wash you hands!". Poor DH, lol.
DS and I are going to head to the neighborhood theatre's baby friendly matinee today of Collateral Beauty. I have a few last minute Christmas errands to run, but I'm largely prepared. Can't wait for the big day!
Thinking of you, awick14 ! I hope baby comes soon!

My bff saw this over the weekend and was not prepared with how depressing and upsetting it was to her as a mother. Just FYI. She cried for 90% of the movie--like, sobbing.

Oh really?! Thanks for the heads up! I was not anticipating that, and I'm not sure I'm up for that...

It's about a father whose daughter dies at age 6 and his struggles to deal with it...
Good luck today cherryvalance. FX for a great ultrasound.
Thanx ladies. I feel like I've been a one trick pony lately only talking about labour and getting this baby here so I can meet him/her. My anxiety is just starting to get back again with all the what if of something going wrong or something.
cherryvalance, when is the ultrasound today?? Keep us posted. I hate this feeling. Remind me for the 100th time how far along you are? I can imagine that these feelings are going to be here right up until delivery, awick14. I hope babywick comes soon and you can finally hold that sweet little bug in your arms <3
Finally started wrapping presents last night. I'm about 50% done. I'll get more done each night after the kids are in bed. H and I decided we weren't going to get each other anything but I got him a small gift from the kids so I need to figure out how to sneak it in the house without him seeing it. I'm get a couple cards in the mail today and have to purchase one gift online today and I'll be done.
I feel bad that we didn't do any Christmas cards this year. 😞
I took A to the lessons and carols service at the cathedral last night and it was quite nice. I did have to take her out to the playroom for a bit, but I timed it during the more boring readings and was back in time for the final carol. We're not very religious, but I love the choir. A liked it too, but did not like the parts where we had to stay seated. We also made Christmas pudding yesterday. Now my nap refuser is refusing to nap, and we are both starting to get a cold... just in time for H to arrive, lol. Poor H.
lms- I bought my last present today. I need to wrap it and get it to my moms place so my niece can open it there. (we always have opened gifts at my parents place Christmas morning, I have no idea if DH and I will feel up to it this year.)
I'm ready for Christmas except for the baking. I still have around 12 dozen cookies to make. I gave DH one of his gifts Saturday. We are going to Bedford Springs for spa treatments and then out to dinner at our favorite place.
awick14 I could have been done last week but the place I bought my mom a gift certificate to is local to her so I didn't want her to get it too early. It didn't make any sense to have it mailed to me to turn around and send it right back.
OMG! My brother just called and told me he proposed to his girlfriend! They had a trip to Vegas planned anyway so he did it there. Apparently my H has known for a week that it was going to happen this weekend so I'm slightly mad at him but my brother swore him to secrecy. This will be the second marriage for both of them. So I get an awesome SIL, and a step-nephew and step-niece. I'm so excited for them!
I'm pulling out a few stops this week to try to get this breech baby to turn. Moxybustion every night, acu on wed, Chiro in Friday. We have a version scheduled for Monday morning, I'm not sure if I'll go through with it but I'm hoping the baby turns before that so I don't have to decide.
