Boston- Enjoy your time alone! That sounds wonderful.

Vanessa- I think you & Dh will enjoy the Infant CPR class. Have fun at your dinner tonight! Unfortunately insomnia is common for a lot of us at this stage. Never had it before in my life so I feel like I am walking around in a cloud.

Robin- Have a great couple of days off!

MM- We were posting at the same time. You are so sweet about the offer of the burp cloths. But don't worry I am going to go online and look to see what they have new. Okay, so you & I will be able to hear each other screaming as we are trying to push out an 8 to 9lb melon!!

Cat- Did you make it to the mall?

Nat

MM - I can understand. My MIL LOVES to iron...she'll iron anything she can get her hands on. She said it's therapeutic for her too. Hey, what ever you need to do to feel ready for Reid's arrival, you should do.

Robin - I think they're both nice. Usually, I am drawn to diamonds but, I like the simplicity of the pendant without the diamond better in this case. In my humble opinion, the diamond looks a little random on the pendant. But, they're both pretty!

Robin, I like them both too but I think I agree w/ boston that I like the one w/out the diamond better. OOH, but the one you just posted is REALLY nice too. huh, well close your eyes and pick one I like the mother son one toooooooooo....
https://www.vandrjewelry.com/Cats/Mo...ProductID=1094

MM- what type of cookies? And sadly, i still have to do a couple toys but i'm just going to get something at target at lunch (i know, surprise, me at target again). As for the stuff to go w/ toy kitchen-- my dd LOVES her apron-- how are you at sewing? my mom made it but they have ones now at target and toys r us if you haven't found anything else... oooh, williams-sonoma carries some cute ones tooooooooo Williams-Sonoma | Catalog ooh, these are fun Mother_Daughter_Aprons-- could you get matching for you and her? and anytime you want to iron, you just come over here Are you sure dh doesn't want to move to MD instead of Canada?

Boston- Enjoy the hotel! that sounds HEAVENLY to me!

Vanessa- enjoy the dinner tonight! We'll have friends in town next weekend and over new years.. Luckily though they're staying at our other friend's house so i don't have to worry 1) about dd waking them early and 2) about cooking breakfast every morning like i usually do when they're here...

I did brave the mall this am- it was pretty empty and i was in by 7:30 and out by 8:30 and had a GREAT commute into work and made it here before 9. I bought a sweater for dh to give me for xmas and a puma tee-shirt for dd that matches the one that dh requested for xmas and i got sil a coach wristlet- boston- not as nice as the one you got your sister, but i think she'll like it and i had a 25% off coupon to coach that i was able to use on it... Now all i have to do is a few toys at lunch and *something* for bil and pick up a gift certificate for dinner somewhere for mil & fil...

Whaaaa? 25% off coupon for Coach?! Lucky lady! I always think the wristlets make a nice gift. My SIL gave me one a few years ago and I use it ALL the time. I'm glad your early morning trip to the mall was so productive!!!

Good morning everyone!

Nat- the temperature has gone up, so the snow will start to melt, but there is still so much of it! Thanks for the heads up on Joys site! The babies look great! I’m so happy for them!

Peachy-I hope your bags are ready!

MM- glad your appt went well! I’m glad you found a doula. We really like ours as well, I think she is going to make the experience even better for us! Regarding the OCD- I think it’s a Capricorn trait so I totally understand! LOL

Boston- I’m glad you had some quiet time last night- and the hotel room thing is SO not lame! You deserve it!

Robin- I like the pendant without the diamond- as much as I LOVE diamonds! I like the #2 alternate with the diamond but I still like the plain one best.

Cat- Good for you! Even if the malls opened that early I’m not sure I would have the energy to go before work!

and i got myself a half-decaf white chocolate peppermint mocha at starbucks-- yummy!

A former coworker keeps getting the coupons mailed to him, he said he's gotten like 6 so far and happened to have one extra in his car yesterday when we all met for lunch and wanted to know if anyone wanted one-- I was like "OH, me, me!" And i'm rather proud that i bought a gift w/ it but am still thinking that maybe i needed something myself tooooooooo....

okay, off to target.

PEACHY????

Mirka- how was your ENT appt?

Havana- are you awake yet?

Maybebaby -- good morning or afternoon!
