Cathi - I can't believe that woman. After I read you post I went to my scriptures so I could give you some good ammo to go back to her, but hubby said I was crazy. I told him, it just infuriates me when people stick their noses into others business. I'm a very religious woman too, but that doesn't mean I'm going to bow down to my husbands every whim. I always tell my friends marriage boils down to this: you, your hubby and God, no one else. Don't let anyone tell you how you should be running your marriage. GRRRRR...

Nascar - we were going to get our crib at BRU's too, but after seeing what JC Penney had to offer we went ahead and bought the crib, dresser, and changing dresser on JC Penney. We had it shipped to the store and went and picked it up. We saved over $800.00 on what we would have spent at BRU. We didn't get but one gift card there from all the showers, so I didn't want to pay out of pocket.

Mery - I'm sorry your OB is making you stay at work. I am actually hoping everything goes well and I'm able to work until the 15th of Dec. I plan on putting the rest of my paychecks in savings, since I don't plan on working again after the baby comes. Funny though I would love to have the baby on the 16th of Dec. We find out on Nov 11th whether or not we will be induced.

Hopeful - I'm sorry they made you stop working when you wanted to keep working. I'm torn sometimes, like I said I want to work until the 15th of Dec, but sometimes I think it would be so nice just to stop. We have SOO very much to get done here before my mom arrives and my hubby's parents arrive and the baby arrives. The only time I'm worth anything is on the weekends. I get home from work and I'm almost too tired even to fix dinner. It's crazy.

Martha - I'm sorry you had to do the 3 hour test. I hope it turns out good. I know what you mean about doing everything you can for those boys. This past week I started getting a sore throat and had a headache for two days, so I stayed home and in Bed Tues/Wed. I will not put my baby at risk! Although, while I was at the OB on Wed she lectured me on the N1H1 vaccine, which I refuse to get. I got the flu shot and I didn't even want to get that.

Northeast girl - I'm hating this weather too! It seems as the only good weather is during the week while I'm at work and then every weekend it's raining and icky. I have stuff to put in the shed, I need it to be nice. My hubby needs to mow the lawn and get the leaves up, Weather man please give us some nice weather for a change!

asm not much is going on. We got the crib up last weekend and this weekend we put together to two dressers. It's starting to look like a babies room. We haven't decided if we are going to paint the room or not. I'm now trying to figure out what we need that we didn't get at the showers. I got coupons from BRU for diapers and a gift card, so I decided to check out diaper prices and in case ya'll are wondering Target is the best place for diapers over diapers.com, BRU, Walmart, amazon.com, and Drugstore.com (I was only looking at pampers and huggies, since that is what the BRU coupons are for). Although the prices are pretty comparable and with coupons I would shop at pretty much any of the stores. If I was choosing between Target and Walmart though I would go to Target. The coupons at BRU are printable and some are pretty good. I only printed a few that I will use, but keep in mind if you are registered at BRU you have a 1 time purchase (what whatever 1 item or all items) that are on the registery for 10% off, so I didn't bother printing any of the coupons that were 10% off, since I can get those items with our 1 time offer off the registry. I did however print the 15% coupon on diaper bags (only found one I liked) and the 15% off all bedding sets $100 or more. I'm not sure if I iwll be using either, but the coupons are good through 11/25. There are some coupons on the printouts that are only good this week like $5 off 25 purchase or more (read the fine print this excludes a lot of stuff) save $4 on diapers and get a free $5 gift card when you purchase 2 diapers (which can be used together). At all both my showers I only got one bag of diapers, I was in SHOCK, I thought I would have more diapers than I would know what to do with, so now we are off to buying some. Tomorrow will be my first birthing class, we are taking a three week Self Hypnosis Birthing class and then one Saturday class called Childbirth 101. Other than that not much is going on with us. I hope everyone had a Happy Halloween.
