I'll be saying a prayer for you! And please feel free (if you are comfortable with it) to stick around the threads. We would love to be here for you!
Very, very cute!!! I especially like the sea theme.Here is a photo of DS1 room. There is another dresser that isn't in the pic and now there is a glider in there too. DH had friends come while I was at work to paint the room.
Here is the bedding I just bought today for DS2. We're going to paint a color called oatmeal and do some simple ocean decor. Their rooms get so much light during the day it will be nice and bright in there.
Its true that there isn't much outside of pink for girls. I didn't know what Madeline was going to be so I had a lot of neutral tones given to me beforehand before my sisters came two days after she was born with a duffle bag filled with girl things! There were a few items that weren't pink but majority of it had some pink in it! It gets a little better as they get older though!
Good luck!!! I hope you can keep us updated! If not, then we will hear from you on the "flip side"!
But its gonna be a great haircut for summer (I will post pics later after I get them loaded on the computer). Then after that we went by our Childrens Hospital so she could turn in her money she collected at her birthday for the hospital. It was a good feelin' day yesterday! I'm very proud of Madeline! Today is the last day of her spring break and we are heading to the aquarium to see Winter the dolphin with the prosthetic tail!
I'm sorry, but I found this very funny!
I tried to resist looking at little girls stuff (especially when I knew it was Lucas and not Cassidy) and almost everything I loved was like orange, green, yellow,etc. I have the cutest green dress I could NOT resist that has pineapples all over it. DH made me promise, after we found out, I wouldn't dress Lucas in it.
It's gotta be the different areas, too, I guess??
WHAT? how did you not know before now? Im asking her all kinds of questions (Im the "Frank, don't sugar coat anything" friend!). Apparently shes not showing, her reg. clothes still fit, she took a PG test back in october and it was positive but in nov. she bled the entire month so she figured she miscarried. Yadda yadda ya! Im flabbergasted! She hasn't told her parents (which she still lives at home with her dad, his wife, and her daughter-- shes in her early 20s), has a boyfriend (his was the abortion and this one, daughter from a bad night in college with a different guy). The entire story is just embarrassing. So anyway she tells me this and tomorrow we have a Bridal Brunch with a bunch of girls we are mutually friends with. I haven't seen any of these girls in quite some time and ofcourse not that this was my spotlight- but if there ever was one going to happen its gone now-- along with the shock of hers, it will definitely spotlight.
I say "congratulations, are you going to keep it"... naturally, because she got rid of one last summer (I didnt say my friend was the smartest person in the world-- or someone i think real highly of). She says she must-- its too late. Shes DUE with a GIRL JUNE 5!!
Wow, I do hope everything works out ok for her.
)... can't bend over, just little things I don't think about (because I STILL don't feel pregnant at all) but to not have a clue??
I can't even tell the difference.
That is nuts. That is pretty much where I am, 2 days ahead of her.
I already can't roll over in bed without being careful (or knocking the wind out of myself
I really hope she's not been out partying or anything like that. My concern is does she smoke, drink?
but she said she stopped those after she thought she miscarried. So thats a positive!First off:
Staley: Your babies are ADORABLE!!!!
DMickey: I hope to see good news posted
And I LOVE all the nursery pics. Wish ours is that far long...
OK,
So... today was my doc's appt. And I've been having "digestion" problem lately (the past 2 weeks). I told the midwife that and she said "It's normal. Your baby is pretty much wreaking havoc on your digestion. Not to worry."
I thought... good... because I'm having like these gas pains while I'm sleeping. Sometimes when I'm just sitting around and stuff and it just made me mad.
So she went ahead to check for the babies heartbeat right and as soon as I lay down, came this stupid gas pain... I cringed... and she said?
"Did you feel that contraction?"
me: Wha?
midwife: That was a contraction.
me: You mean that was NOT gas pain?
mw: Nope. You have to start counting these...
me:
All these times I was complaining to DH about having gas, apparently it's contractions!!!!
AAACKKK!!!
Did you have time for an epidural at all?
Thanks!! It's supposed to snow on my b-day...woohoo! I have to work all day anyway, so no big--it ALWAYS snows or rains on my b-day. I was actually born on Easter and my aunts tried to get my mom to name me Bunny!
