So here is what Mel and I did for our big Saturday night...We watched a rerun of the Lawrence Welk show! Does anyone here remember that show? We had some good laughs making fun of their outfits and hairdos.

Lawrence who???

Don't know any of those books.

Susan-I am sorry about the chemical. But I am glad you are okay. Phoebe will be a big sister when mom is ready!

Gator fan here.

I think I bruised a rib? cracked a rib? from coughing so much. It hurts like hell. No relief laying down either. Oh, and I am not speaking to Dh because he is being a ****ake. How can he not see the freaking full laundry basket right in front of him and not take it up the 2 flights of stairs for me? it is really heavy so obviously I should be doing the laundry, folding the laundry and carrying it, oh yeah, and putting it away? Well, it is a good thing that he can remember to take care of all those dam n orchids or they would rot. But the shower gifts? Nope, i guess I am expected to transport them. Along with my responsibility to make sure the house is locked and alarmed because even though he passes by every freaking door on the way to bed and the alarm, his poor arm must be too heavy to lift and push a few keys to turn the alarm on. But that is okay. I woke up at 1am this morning with the worst leg cramps in both legs, and it has been painful all day, cramping on and off. But maybe even though it is painful as all getup to get off my arse to turn on the alarm and do other chores, maybe it is good for me somehow. Especially since the poor baby had a nice relaxing trip to the gym to go in the jacuzzi. Who am I to take his relaxation away.

Nope, I am not pissed. I think I will sleep on my nice new couch and if the jerk tries to wake me up I will go ape-****ake.

I am sure I will feel better in the AM. Just feels good to get this out. Sorry for dumping

Jen..You little spring chicken! You missed out on Lawrence Welk!

Sorry Walt isn't pitching in tonight..Mel gets like that too although now she has an excuse. One of my pet peeves is when she can't throw out the "out of date" milk. So she'll open up the new carton but leaves the old one in the fridge..can't you just throw out the old one? Silly I know, but it gets to me for some reason! But as the saying goes, we have to take the good with the bad. Hope your legs feel better tomorrow. Do you think you may be low on potassium?

Morning Carie, morning Amy!!!

I can't figure out what to have for breakfast. DH has left for work and I'm useless in the kitchen. I guess it'll be toast. How pathetic.

Yes Jen, chilly-willy is a grilled cheese sandwich and I like mine with a bit of tomato just to burn my chin with.
Also I hurt my stomach everytime I cough. It's a dry tickle cough and I cough all day.

Poor little DD said she has a sore throat and headache today although she communicates where it hurts by poking herself in the throat and says ouch and squeezing her head. Being sick sucks.

Tia- i was on insomniac for the last part of my pregnancy.

Jen- Welcome to the home stretch. You will want to kill DH from here on out. I used to take the folded clothes out of the basket and put a few items of his on each step just to be a jerk until he got the picture.

April- I remember Lawrence Welk...

Morning Ladies! y'all were definitly chatty last night!!

Jen- sorry Walt isn't pulling his weight. I'd go ape-****ake on him even if he didn't wake me up! lol. Love how that works, get mad if they do, get mad if they don't. Thankfully DH does all the laundry here, vacuums, loads and unloads the dishwasher, everything...I am the lazy butt but only because he does not want me doing any of this. I don't mind, I have domestic chores! lol

April- I find that unless I'm sitting down and concentrating, it can be hit or miss on whether I feel the babies too. I forgot to mention that. I'm sure she has felt them, but hasn't payed the mind to really feel it, if you know what I mean.

Heidi- Lately my food obsession is grilled cheese! Mmmmmm!! Sorry DD is sick again! Poor little Sweet Heart!!

Susan- I lvoe that you left some clothes on each stair, I'd do that too!! And don't worry about your sweater not fitting, remember Phoebe is only 3 months...it will come off!!

Hi Liza, Kelly, Amy, and Jess- chatty chatty girls! Gives me somethign to read.

I guess the morning grazing has begun. I know this will sound bad but I was waiting until like 10:30 to eat breakfast and then eating the rest of hte day too. Well, I must be doing something right anyways because Lay and Mo (LOL run them together fast) are measuring within two days of each other AND are measuring a wee bit ahead of my pregnancy dating but now, they're demanding that I get up early to eat breakfast, I don't mind but it's beaver dam chilly in the morning. LOL DH has decided I'm not allowed to go with him to speak to his parents if I'm going to tell them how much they've fooked up our lives! Boo!! They should really know that! LOL
