Baby Brandon Allen Lastname arrived weds 2/20 at 1:03 pm via scheduled c-section. He was exactly 7 pounds, and 19 1/4 inches long.![]()
Congratulations! What a blessing for your family!!! I'm thinking late in July? We usually take Josh's sister for her b-day, and that's when it is. That's tentative at this point of course, but we are gonna start nailing down some little trips like that before too much longer. What are your thoughts?
We're getting a sprinkling of snow right now!![]()
Dawn, I know you can appreciate that.
Us Southerners get excited at the sight of the white stuff.

I'm soooo done with snow.
I love watching the Biggest Loser! They are all looking so good!
Has anyone seen or heard from Sandy lately? I miss her!
Mark was the obvious choice to go home though. He looked awesome when they showed him at the end!!!
I am numb still, but am sure I'll have pain later in the day. Soft foods for me today. WI on Friday is looking good!!!
.

The good news is he said everything looked normal through the microscope, but he went ahead with it just to be sure.
It's always something when you can be sitting on the counter thingy with a blanket covering you from the waist down and your dr gives you a hug with your backside exposed.
Oh Joy!
Mine didn't even hug me after I had my sons.Whew, what a night. I was woken up at 1am by....an earthquake! It only lasted about 10-15 seconds but the house shook and bounced my bed away from the wall! No serious injuries and no damage thankfully. It was my first earthquake (and hopefully my last!) I think it was a pretty minor earthquake really, but for a country that doesn't normally get them...pretty scary!
to everyone who needs it and
to everyone else!
What a way to wake up!!! I have never experienced an earthquake and quite frankly, hope I never do. I am glad everyone is safe.My eating has been very Peepish.... but we just counted and we are down to 49 days until the trip to WDW.... even if I lose 2 lbs. a week, I will just barely beat my goal of 30 lbs. So I HAVE to keep at it or I will have nothing to wear!! ..................................P
I am home today as I had a wisdom tooth pulled this morning and they told me not to go to work.I am numb still, but am sure I'll have pain later in the day. Soft foods for me today. WI on Friday is looking good!!!
I am off to update my TR and catch up on Wendy's.![]()
Just a quick update, my grandpa and my aunt are both doing well so things are looking up.Works for me I'm easy!
The test was way better than I expected. I totally psyched myself up and almost threw up on the way over. What the nurse described on the phone and what I felt were 2 totally different things.
Just some mild cramping on and off, but I am fine.

Can I meet you too if it's a date I can do? I am in Buffalo and it takes about 3 hrs to get to Cedar point, I think. I haven't been there in about 8 years!!
The more, the merrier. We didn't get to go last year, so it's been 2 years for us. And the last time I was there, I couldn't ride Millenium Force because the belt wouldn't buckle, but it was so close. And now I'm down 2 pant sizes, and by then I hope to be down 1 or 2 more, so I should be able to ride! 
Glad you're OK. I've been down that road.Whew, what a night. I was woken up at 1am by....an earthquake! It only lasted about 10-15 seconds but the house shook and bounced my bed away from the wall!

Hope you feel OK. Ice your face to keep the swelling down.I am home today as I had a wisdom tooth pulled this morning and they told me not to go to work.I am numb still, but am sure I'll have pain later in the day. Soft foods for me today. WI on Friday is looking good!!!
Glad to hear it!Just a quick update, my grandpa and my aunt are both doing well so things are looking up.
I did not eat well. I had 2 pieces of pizza for lunch, and then I had to work late to get caught up. When I left work after 11 hours, I called DH and told him I had a Cold Stone Creamery birthday coupon burning a hole in my pocket. So we had ice cream for dinner, followed by salad when we got home. I did get on the bike for 40 minutes, which was remarkable because I felt like carp. I just couldn't let the day go by without doing at least 1 peepish thing. Now I'm off to drink some water before I get in bed, so that's 2. I don't want to have to hand over my membership card
Happy Birthday Dance.
Monica, glad the test went well. I can remember being terrified for that very same procedure. That kind of stuff never gets easy or comfortable.
Danielle, Cold Stone? Oh gosh, wish you hadn't mentioned that. That stuff is amazing.
I've been a very good peep diet and exercise wise. Melinda, I must admit, I do like how I'm feeling with the addition of oatmeal and flax seed to my diet. I think I really needed that fiber. I wish I liked oatmeal but it's getting easier. I just wish they could make it taste a little more like pepperoni pizza. Oh well, can't have everything.
Thanks, but that comment about pepperoni pizza oatmeal was hard to swallow.
