well
My aunt in law (ok that is funny) Offered to come help out when I have the baby. I was totally taken aback! That was one of the nicest things. Totally unexpected and greatly appreciated.
DH is back at his office today. He will be checking into baby leave. We KNOW he has the leave time on the books. BUT a matter of what he is on the books to do. And where he will be needed. Which is why we are checking into this now and not waiting. This little guy will be here in Feb... It is closer than I would like to think lol
My mother. Well something happened lol. She offered to buy us a family baby gift. A set of those high effeciency, super capacity front loading washer dryer sets. When she was up here visiting, she saw how I was doing laundry and apparently it reminded her of when she was just getting started. MANY smaller loads. She says this will help out. OK.... Talk about being thrown for a loop!! IF I get them I will be amazed.... happy too lol love to be able to cut back on time doing laundry. She will be up here for Thanksgiving. We are apparently hitting the Black Friday sales to get the set.
I had to decline on a wedding invite for DH's cousin :( I wanted to go but I got the big ol' too late in your pregnancy to fly/travel that far speech. So I have to send our regrets.
Oh!!! One of my friends up here. She said she wants to throw me a baby shower!!! So I think we decided on the first week in January. I had a shower with my oldest. It was needed. A single mom at 19... I needed all the help I could get. My second. Well a girl at dh's command then threw a shower for EVERY other expectant mom except me LOL. She was really uncomfortable when I accepted the invites to the others showers ;)
I am looking forward to this shower. Surrounded by good friends what could be better? :)
I keep thinking dh will not be home tonight. I think all this time just having a husband a day or two a week is wearing on me a little lol. I guess I should get SOMETHING out for dinner. Last night I couldn't find ANYTHING that appealed to me. So I had a banana and went to sleep.
Poor hubby.... The other day I wanted pineapple. The fresh one I got was bad once it was cut into. So I had thought I bought a can of pineapple slices. Instead I bought two cans of pineapple chunks. But could I eat the chunks??? NOOOOOO I only wanted the rings. Was there any logic behind that? nope. Geesh the pregnant mind is a tricky beast.
