I am in my best friends wedding next Friday and her mother just passed away last night. The funeral is this Friday... one week before the wedding. I am without words for her  Oh no! That's so sad. All you can do is be there like everyone else said. My mom passed away a month before my wedding - and it was difficult - really really difficult. I can't imagine a week. My tips would be: (a) The day of the wedding - really focus on the wedding and not the passing. I had a hard time with the "I'm sorry to hear about your mom" sort of thing - it made me cry every time. (b) Make sure the photographer is aware of the situation and doesn't do something stupid like ask where the Mother of the Bride is (c) Make sure the dj is clued in (d) If they are doing the Mother / Son dance - make sure someone is close by the Bride - it was the hardest part of the wedding for me. This is all such good advice. My FIL passed away 10 months before our wedding. I seriously can't imagine what it would've been like if it had only been a week. I'm sorry about your friend's loss birdsofafeather. |

birdsofafeatherOh my god that absolutely sucks. Your poor friend. QuinnI would have 100% kept them 😂 even though we already have 2 cats that would not have acted nicely towards new kittens lol. Since it's kitten season I keep seeing adverts for them and I'm like omg I need that kitten. And then I remember they grow up into hunters and leave dead mice and half dead birds in our kitchen for us to find in the morning... Dogs aren't much better, our last foster pup swallowed a dead baby squirrel then threw it up on our couch lol  Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk |

I'm so sorry for your friend birdsofafeather. Yes please let us know if you find anything good annperkins. I love Yoga with Adrienne but I don't think she has any prenatal. I did find prenatal Pilates but haven't tried any of the vids yet. Maybe I'll do.one tonight and report back. clucky I think I'm going back to waxing when I can no longer see. I miss my Brazilians but was trying to save money. I think pregnancy calls for the splurging lol Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk |

So my toddler fell down about half a flight of stairs tonight to our basement. She's okay except her eye hit the banister that holds the hand rail. She will for sure have a black eye now. This is our first major fall/black eye event. Basically breaking my heart. And now I don't think I'll ever let her do stairs solo again.

She's now bouncing off the walls. Totally her normal crazy self. So I'm taking that as a good sign. She says the only thing that hurts is her toe. 😒 |

Today a store clerk asked me if I knew what sex the baby was. It's the first time a stranger has asked me about being pregnant. Maybe my chub is starting to look more like a bump.

birdsofafeather, I'm so sorry for your friend, so hard. a, sending your kiddo healing vibes! laurensc927, that is disgusting, dead squirrel... file that under one thing your kid won't do! So far for prenatal yoga videos I've done the morning and bedtime ones by Sarah Beth Yoga, I much prefer the morning one though, the before bed isn't relaxing enough. I've done a few different ones, the Tonic ones are pretty relaxing for before bed, but not difficult in any way. Prenatal Yoga Center has some good yoga videos too, which are more traditional. I've done a few videos with an exercise ball too, they were both quite annoying, but the workouts were good. Bodyfit by Amy and Fitmomma. Those are all on youtube. I think I just said few, videos, and ones like a thousand times, so I apologize for my crappy brain power right now!

Does anyone have any baby must-haves from Ikea? I think we'll order our crib and dresser from there and a few other things, but if you have any suggestions, let me know.

E also took a good fall down stairs last night. She was helping me water the flowers on our front porch, took a side step and her foot went off the step. She lost her balance, fell onto the stone step, then off the edge onto the pavers walkway. So much screaming. Besides a scrapped elbow she was fine though. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk |

And poor mama - it's so hard watching them fall. |

QuinnThat's all I have been doing for the past 4 days is shopping for all the pink things I would spam in pictures of what I got as they are literally just the cutest clothes in the world but I don't think you guys wana see that lol. I do need to calm down though as she isn't going to wear half of what I already have got, DS never did with his clothes that we got him. But it's just all so cute and pink

Found another name for little pink.
Well I only have Emmeline (Emme) but for some reason I'm not over struck by it another, really confused lol.
But I saw Amber yesterday and thought it was really nice.
Thoughts on Amber?
