The dude dropped off our dumpster early this morning...we were pulling cars out of the driveway right as he was pulling up!! Last night some of the materials for our siding project also got delivered so HOLY SHIT this is actually happening!!!!

I don't have any plans tonight or this weekend. I need to spend some time cutting some plants away from the house so it's ready for siding and painting, and we have to remove our front porch railing, but that's about it. I'm really hoping I can spend some time with @southernpeach89 and Callie at some point so I can watch her walk around everywhere!

@labro Let me know when you have time and we can meet up at Mom's house or my house! I will get wine and cheese!

Ugh so yesterday at crossfit I ripped my hand to high heavens doing 60 pull ups. I put some rip butter on it this morning and it stings but hopefully it helps it heal faster.

Also my photographer finally got back to me this morning and confirmed our location! RELIEF! Hopefully the photos turn out great along with the weather. It has been a bit gloomy this week.

Tonight I was supposed to meet up with some moms for Happy Hour and let Callie have some play time with the other kids but it looks like the mom who is hosting had to cancel. So it may end up being just a relaxing night for Callie and I tonight since DH is working. I need to paint my nails for tomorrow anyways.

Saturday morning we have our photos and then we are going to my neighbor's son's 2nd birthday party. We probably won't stay too long since Callie will be tired after our pictures.

Sunday I plan to spend the day at my parent's house with Callie while DH works. If it's hot, I might bring over Callie's swim suit and let her splash around in her inflatable pool.

@southernpeach89 OMG what a relief!!!! I'm so glad you got everything confirmed for tomorrow! I can't wait to see photos! Sorry we didn't send you beach pictures last night....H and I basically sprinted all over the yard for an hour and a half mowing and edging before it rained and then he had to clean the shotgun. I'll make him to do it this weekend!

I just checked my ticker and this time next Friday I'll be on a plane about halfway to @minskat30!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@labro yay for new siding!!
@southernpeach89 I'm glad she finally got back to you, and can't wait to see how the pictures come out!

Last night we went to visit my bf's best friend's daughter. Before we got to the hospital we went out for dinner at a new restaurant. The food was really good, but I had this grapefruit shandy that I really want more of. After we left the restaurant there was a dunkin donuts across the street that had a walk-thru window. Of course we tried it out. Then we went over to the hospital. The baby is perfect. She's a little peanut at 5lbs 13oz, but her mommy and daddy are not big people so that's no surprise. All of the guys were afraid to hold her. After about an hour I basically just handed her to my bf. The other guys would come over and pet her head.

My bf calls babies puppies, so he bought her a stuffed puppy. They used the puppy as a prop for her newborn pictures. He was so excited when we he saw the pictures.

We have no plans for this weekend, and I'm looking forward to just relaxing.

@speakeasy14 Yay for more new nieces!!!! She sounds like a precious little bean!

speakeasy14 · August 2016

@labro she's so cute! And since they live about 5 minutes from my sister, Emmy now has a best friend!

speakeasy14 · August 2016

@southernpeach89 -- just got an email from Loft. If you are still planning on going to Loft, are you going to regular Loft or the outlet? I have an additional 15% at Loft Outlet that I can send you.

minskat30 · August 2016

@labro - ONE WEEK!!! I woke up today so excited that I'll be hugging you by about this time next week!

@southerpeach89 - Ugh, your hand injury does NOT sound fun. I hope the weather holds for you guys this weekend for the pictures!

@speakeasy14 - Oh my goodness! What a little peanut! And I'm awww'ing over your BF calling babies puppies.

---------------------------
Weekend here will be pretty good hopefully. H and I are going to try and get out and about for walks with Ani and Raj. Plus cooking and errand running. We are also going to see my nephew who I can't wait to hold.

H is going to kill me though maybe before this weekend...I bought another toy for Ani on Amazon...but it was on sale and look at this thing! Ani loves to sit up and hates her swing really so maybe this will be another great place to set her down for a few minutes.

@minskat30 That little toy is so cute! Ani sounds a lot like Callie! She is VERY insistent on what she wants to do and nothing else makes her happy.

speakeasy14 · August 2016

@minskat30 I love that chair! Hopefully Ani does too!

labro · August 2016

@TwoDimes A MONTH???? That's completely unacceptable...what has your sister been thinking????

I hope you get to eat a giant messy burrito for dinner and win Olympic gold for it not falling apart.

AlPacina · August 2016

@southernpeach89 – Oh no! I’ve seen my friend’s ripped hands after Crossfit and it always looks so disgustingly gnarly. I hope you heal up soon! I’m so sorry!

@speakeasy14 – Omg, grapefruit shandy sounds amazeballs. How’s your uterus after the little baby holding? Any aching? (ETA: Didn't we talk once about how someone you know thought grapefruit would get you pregnant?)

@minskat30 – Don’t feel bad about buying the chair. We’re here to validate that it was definitely the right choice to get it. Because it was!

@TwoDimes – Free lunch AND learning?!? Woah. We normally have to bring our own lunches if we want the free learning part. What will you be learning about?

-------------------------

Well I left work yesterday with a huge smile on my face because my soon-to-be new manager pulled me into the hall and congratulated me on my new position! My current manager grabbed me a little while later and told me he wishes me the best, which I can't tell if it was a "I'll congratulate you because I have no choice" or "I think you're legit smart and will do well." I'll try to assume the best intentions.

I already had happy hour planned with a friend, but I told BF that he had to come celebrate with me! We went to a winery I hadn't visited before and they had live music and AMAZING customizable mac and cheese. I had smoked gouda and chicken on mine and could only eat a third of it because of the richness. So yay! I have breakfast and lunch!

When we got home we spent some time outside, even though it was still around 80 degrees at 10 o'clock. Then we spent a while hanging out in bed, and I'm freaking exhausted today. Luckily, every other Friday is my "Friendship Fuel" date with a coworker, so we're heading to Starbucks soon.

@southernpeach89 so glad the photographer is set for tomorrow!! Hope your hand heals quick
@minskat30 that toy is so cute. I haven't really bought any toys or clothes for Eli yet. But I'm sure I'll go a little nuts when he's big enough to sit in things like that.
@labro hope your siding comes out awesome. You decided not to list this year right?
@alpacina I want that Mac and cheese so bad.i had to cut dairy for breastfeeding and life sucks without cheese products!!

We brought Eli to the doctor yesterday and they gave him prescription for acid reflux meds. I hope it helps because he's been so screamy and uncomfortable and we could tell by all the gagging that was the problem.

labro · August 2016

@AlPacina Omgggg your new job celebration sounds sooo fun!! I hope you enjoy those mac n cheese leftovers today!

Congratulations again! I'm so happy for you!

labro · August 2016

@jenna8984 Yeah, we're definitely putting it off until next spring. It just got to be too late in the year to do much of anything and it's better to wait until early spring to list.

I'm glad your doctor got some meds for poor Eli! Acid reflux is NO fun and hopefully it helps him feel better!

speakeasy14 · August 2016

@AlPacina hahah yes one of my coworkers swears you can get pregnant from eating grapefruit hahahaaha -- And there were 0 uterus aches. I really like being an aunt, I can snuggle, spoil, and play, but can give them back when I'm done. Also, I don't do diapers. I have to say, I'm pretty proud of my record... in 5 years I've changed exactly 1 diaper. --- I'm so excited for you and your new job!! Sounds like this boss is 100x better too!

speakeasy14 · August 2016

@jenna8984 They had to give Emmy medicine for acid reflux too and she's on prescription formula. It helped a lot. She really only cries after she eats. Hopefully Eli has the same response and both of you can start feeling better.

minskat30 · August 2016

@alpacina - Congrats!!!! How exciting. You deserve this, lady!

minskat30 · August 2016

@jenna8984 - I hope the medicine helps, Eli! We tried it for Ani but turns out she doesn't have a reflux problem. Did they flavor it? Ani's face when she would take the medicine was hilarious...like "what IS this crap?!?"

Peaseblossom55 · August 2016

I am so tired. I did not get a good night of sleep
@labro so jealous of your trip next week
@southernpeach89 I did a pull up once.....
@alpacina I am so excited for you and your new job
@speakeasy14 wow that is a tiny baby, I think I was about that size.
@jenna8984 I hope the meds help Eli
@twodimes wow the new expansions and plans sound great, it would be awesome if you can volunteer again.
@minskat30 the new toy is so cute. I hope Ani loves it.

I didn't sleep well, I'm tired and am having awful hip and back pain today. I have no patience at all today, especially for my cats for some reason. H found out his grandma of 98 passed away yesterday. She was amazing, I will miss her so much. She was so excited about our baby, she had even emailed me last week to wish me a Happy birthday. I don't know any of the arrangements yet but I don't know if it even makes sense to go back to work next week now. I'm so over August, despite the fact that I love summer.

minskat30 · August 2016

@peaseblossom55 - Huge hugs to you, lady. I'm so sorry about your H's grandmother. I'm praying September is as low key and happy a month as anyone could possibly get.

AlPacina · August 2016

@jenna8984 - Oh man! Cutting out dairy would be the worst! Well, I'll enjoy it extra hard for you. How does eating dairy affect your breast feeding? It's not something I've heard about.

@speakeasy14 - Being an aunt is way awesome. I just like being "that asshole" to you. That grapefruit thing was hilarious. And I am so glad your intern is gone! You can finally enjoy all vegetables again, including cucumbers.

@TwoDimes - That sounds like a great presentation! I hope you find a volunteer opportunity as well. I really miss volunteering, too. I haven't put forward enough effort to find somewhere.

@Peaseblossom55 - I am so sorry to hear about your H's grandma. Wow, though. 98 years old! I'm sending your family some extra love today.

[Deleted User] · August 2016

@speakeasy14 Ugh I already went yesterday at lunchtime. Thanks for offering though...I did end up getting a pretty good deal. Everything was marked off 50% and then I got an additional 50% off of the sale price....so I bought three dresses instead of one lol. Oops.

labro · August 2016

@southernpeach89 Just think of it like buying three dresses and two of them were free with all the discounts.

@peaseblossom55 I'm so sorry for your's and your H's loss.

98 is pretty amazing! I hope September is a much much much better month for you!

speakeasy14 · August 2016

@southernpeach89 you still got some awesome deals!
@peaseblossom55 Fingers and toes crossed that September is 100x better for you! So sorry about your H's grandma, but 98 is impressive, AND she knew how to email!

Peaseblossom55 · August 2016

@speakeasy14 yes I would get happy birthday emails every year and we got happy anniversary emails as well. It was wonderful, I'm so glad I saved them all.

jenna8984 · August 2016

@alpacina I'm not sure exactly but some baby's tummies can't break down certain protein found in dairy, and those proteins come through in the breast milk. They don't harm the baby buy cause gas and fussiness and sometimes reflux. Its so hard I've been off it for a month and all I want is a cheese pizza but I'll so anything to make him feel better

FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
