MOOvin' Along - Goog Times, Goog Friends . . .

Uma - I hope that in her drugged up stuper the tooth fairy didn't leave more than a dollar.

Three days??? I had no idea it was so close! What happened to our countdown thingy? When do you get back?

 

[betsywdw]

Kelly - How did you miss the big annoucement like 2 weeks ago?!?!?!

Betsy - My oldest is 6. When he was 3 months I got pregnant again, so they are 1 year and 20 days apart. Then I was pregnant by # 2 first birthday. A couple months after number 3 turned 1 I was pregnant with number 4. #4 was a much more difficult pregnancy and I couldn't even nurse him because I had like no milk, so we decided to wait until he was 3 before we started trying. But back in Nov. when all my anxiety came to a ugly head my Dr. said he wanted me off my BC, since there was nothing else that could be causing all my problems. After that we decided we would just get pregnant whenever. Then after Dec. we decided we REALLY wanted another one, so we started trying. #4 turned 2 in the beginning of Jan. Not quite 3, but he is now potty trained, so that's good! I'm hoping after giving my body 2 years to rest I will have a good pregnancy again, like I used to. After this one we want another one close. But not too close. I think we will probably start trying when this one is 1. I LOVE having them close!

I think that is AWESOME! I give you so much credit because babies are hard work but so worth it! I'm sure anyone that acts stupid about it is just jealous! I know that I would love to have a huge family but I just don't know if I'm cut out for it! I think 3 will probably be my maximum. So, are you going to find out the sex of the baby? Are you hoping for a girl? I didn't find out with DD and I'm not sure when I get preggers again if I will. I thought it was awesome to find out at the end. Of course I was convinced that I was having a boy the entire pregnancy and could not believe when DH said "It's a girl!". I really hope for a smooth pregnancy for you! I think you're right about your body getting a break and now it's ready! Congrats! I hope to follow along with your pregnancy! Ever since I got pregnant with DD, I have been a baby and pregnancy nut! I often wish I had chosen a profession on OB. Yes, I'm very jealous of BabyNurse!

NAB - I love story group! We have a ton of fun and you're right, I like meeting other Mommies!

UMA - I hope you're night after Nyquil is better!!! I'm jealous...3 days!!!!!

Kelly - Lost was AWESOME!!!

Good Morning to everyone that hasn't been on yet or anyone I missed

 

[MommyPoppins]

Betsy - We are planning on finding out the sex. Although, I have to tell you that the more I think about it, the more I think maybe we shouldn't since that surprise at the end is the best! We'll see.

Hi everybody.


MommyP: I was wondering how far apart your kids were. You must have the patience of Job, to have all those little ones, be pregnant, AND homeschool. I'm impressed.

We had our kids in pairs. First two are 19 months apart then we waited 3 1/2 years and had the last two 22 months apart. I said if I ever get pregnant again, it better be twins. lol

I found out the sex with the first two, but not the last two. It was really exciting to wait until delivery day. And there's always a chance the ultrasound could be wrong. That happened to my patient the other day. She had two girls and was supposed to have another girl. But delivery day, out pops a boy. The look on her face was priceless. But I think dad's face said it all. It was so funny. Her two girls (they were 8 and 12) were in the delivery room off to the side and when the MD said "It's a boy", those girls started screaming and high fiving. Priceless.


I hope all you under the weather people will soon be over the weather, and cyber hugs to those who are in need.

Hi everyone!

Good to see you all here. (Especially Lil G- you certainly have an advanced degree in life!)


MommyP- the only people who get a vote in your family planning are you and Chad. Just remember than since you are already part of the problem you may as well please your self

Which leads to in interesting question... even or odd? the number of kids that is? I know BabyN had number 4 so everyone would have a riding partner at WDW. I think a lot of people have 3 kids becasue they want more than 2 and 4 just seems crazy... but what do I know???? We were planning on three because of the age gap. I wouldn't have minded two kids (though I always dreamed of 4!) but I didn't want to have two only children. My twins were so much work (the whole two baby thing- plus a lot of health issues) that I couldn't imagine having any more kids. Thank goodness that Golden Child was a surprise of sorts AND a piece of cake baby to boot! I really enjoy my children. It is so fun to watch them grow and develop and be their own completely different little people.

 

[MommyPoppins]

Even or odd. Hmm...if you keep it even there can NEVER be a middle child.

That being said, I might want 7, but no way I want 8. So we'll either keep it at 6(if we can have another after this one) or we'll be odd at 7. A family near us has a ton of kids. I'm not sure, but from rumors and the passenger van and the looks of the yard, I think they have over 10. They're house is TINY! Probably only slightly larger than ours(1500 under A/c) and they only have a single car garage. We drove by the other day and I told Chad, "I'd hate to see the inside of their house, all of them living in that tiny house." He said, "Yeah, from the looks of the yard, they don't have any idea how to organize." I could pack a lot of kids into a small(ish) house because I am so organized. These people's house must be wall to wall junk! Or it's neat inside because they keep EVERYTHING outside. LOL!

I hope this baby is a good one. Kaleb wasn't as easy as Seth and Ethan were...he wasn't hard, but not easy. Plus he is a TERROR of a toddler, what with him getting into EVERYTHING! I'm a little scared since I've had 4 kids, all good...will number 5 be my bad child? Will he/she have colic?

BabyN - Your story makes a good point. Maybe we shouldn't find out...what if they say it's a girl and on delivery day it's a BOY! I don't think we can handle THAT kind of surprise. That would SO not be funny!

 

[UtahMama]

That's what happened on "Notes From the Underbelly" last night! The short haired lady was totally expecting a girl and got a boy.

I LOVE the lady with the glasses!!!! She just cracks me up!!!!

MommyP- I NEED you to find out. Don't ask why. Maybe you can give your sonographer my number? LOL!

I have 4, but my oldest is WAY older so it feels like 3, mostly. Three is easy-peazy-lemon-squeezy.

 

[MommyPoppins]

Uma - I'll have her write it down and I'll mail it to you if we decide not to find out. Okay?

 

[TwinkieMama]

WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOTY!!!!!

 

[MommyPoppins]

Woooooooohoooooooooooooty Twinkie!!!
You not only posted 2200 times, but you also got the 450th post!

 

[NAB]

Wooohoooty Twinkie!!!

I think if I had 3 kids I would go for the fourth. Maybe to even it out. But we will never know......

I wanted a girl so bad when I was pregnant with Hannah. I found out that she was a girl . But I was so used to the idea by the time we had her it took away from the excitement at the end. But everyone is different some need to know and plan.

UMA are you all better today? Can't wait to see more pictures of DL.

I am waiting to play tooth fairy. Everyday Hannah comes home from school I am hoping that it is finally out. She told me a girl in her class got nail polish to and another go a game. Since when did the tooth fairy become Santa Clause and how did they put a game under their pillow

She will get a twoonie. Which is our $2.00 coin. Since it is her first tooth. Long way from a quarter we used to get.

I've been entertaining myself this very rainy, gray day by re-reading Twinkie's TR Mixed Marriage 2. It's really goog. Her DS(6) was a cutie!!! I've gotten through 18 ish pages. I wonder how the Twinkie Twin-Pack likes It's Tough To Be A Bug???

Must go do real life chores. Feeling MUCH better today. Thanks to Equate Allergy Relief.


Jordan got his cap and gown today! My BABY's gradjiating!!!

 

[NAB]

Sorry it is rainy there UMA. Those are the days you would like to crawl back in bed.

Congratulations to your son...Has he picked a college to go to, is he leaving home next year?

My son is trying to do the Suffix "al" and is having a hard time. I am having a hard time He has to come up with 10. He has 8 more years to go until graduates. Seems like a long time but to you I bet it flew by.

 

[poly]

Congratulations to your son Uma!

Nab, I tried making tacos one time- they told me they prefer Taco Bell
That was fine by me, cause I do not like them!

I'm making steak sandwiches for dinner.

My youngest just called from campus to tell me she is going to a concert in Philadelphia tonight with friends -they're seeing Modest Mouse. The group will spend the night at Drexel with a friend from high school. Then they'll take the train back at 6 am so they're back for classes. I'm really glad she lets me know where she's going, and she'll call me later to keep in touch. I've got good kids!

 

[Minnie_Moo]

Nab - How about this for the Cow Pie BINGO prize? A gallon's worth of your favorite flavors of Ben & Jerry's?

A lovely dairy treat!

Hope everyone has a nice evening. It is beautiful here today, but I have a work-related meeting tonight

 

[MommyPoppins]

Uma - Is/has your son done the missionary time that a lot of Mormon boys do? I know they are all over here peddling their bikes in their dark colored nice clothes. I always feel so bad for them. They've GOT to be dying!

Nab - You don't even know how BADLY I want tacos since you mentioned them this morning! One of my children HATES tacos, so we don't have them often.

I helped my sister get all booked (for Sept.) today! They'll only be there for 3 nights, 4(ish) days, but I got them AP's and saved them $29.84. I should be a travel agent! I told her about meeting you, she didn't tell me I'm a nut job, she seemed excited to meet you all! Yay!

We're watching Snakes On a Plane again tonight. The Lemon Pepper Crock pot chicken only smells somewhat goog. Tomorrow night we're going to get pizza from a new place in town that calls itself, New York Pizza. We'll see. Of course, tomorrow pizza will sound horrible.

Just wanted to check in.

Have a good night everyone!

Celery - What's going on with Tea? PM me!!!!!

PS. She (my sister) already has a folder marked, "Disney stuff" I'll have her hooked yet!

 

[Backstage_Gal]

WOOO HOOOTY to MommyP!!!!!!!!!!!!

What happend to your siggie? Did you get a warning to about size?

Uma, glad you are feeling better!

Well, finished my forecast today. My assistant (former one on loan) refreshed my cause of change today to update actuals and erased all the adjustments I made yesterday for forecast time periods . You have to push a macro button to that, I have no idea why she did that!!
Luckily I had comments that were still in the cells with amounts, so it only took me like a 1/2 hour to fix it. Then I coudn't find my boss to review everything before submitting it. In the end I posted the file (which was due at noon) at 12:00 pm exactly!!

 

[NAB]

Poly -- tacos are so easy to make. I don't mind having them. I do like Taco Bell too.

Mommy P-- has had a craving.... The only thing I made my hubby go get me was a DQ blizzard, this was on a winter night and it 35 minutes away. He went though. Good thing it wasn't summer or it would have been a milkshake instead.

Moo-- Ben and Jerry's sounds good, how do you get a cow to move?

Marita I glad you made it in time....does that mean you can come and play now?

 

[Backstage_Gal]

Marita I glad you made it in time....does that mean you can come and play now?

Yes, nab, I can come play now. Later, after everyone is done with dinner.

My network connection hasn't worked this afternoon. I tried 3 times to reconnect it. happens every time I think of canceling my MSN account and extra phone line

Going to try again time now....

Later, folks!!
