Official "Not so new mommies" thread

[DisneyPhD]

New ones welcome too.

Since my DD can hardly qualify for a new baby anymore, and hasn't for a while let's start a new thread for moms to meet and discuss the ups and downs of parenthood, and what ever else we can think of.

This thread is not just for members of the official new mom thread or official expecting mom thread, anyone is welcome to join.

I have 2 girls. Lily is 2 years old, Anna is 5, that is us in my siggy on our last trip to WDW a few weeks ago (along with DH.)

So welcome everyone.

Hi, just subscribing right now. Talk to ya later

 

[katerkat]

I'm here, too.

Russ is nearly two now! I can't believe how fast the time has gone.

 

[belle&beast]

Great idea! DD is 5 and DS is 3. We are having lots of new behavior problems with DD lately. Too much to write about right now, but let's just say we've had 3 great days and DH and I are just enjoying the peace as long as it lasts!

 

[MosMom]

I've got 2 of my own. Moira (Mo) is 9 and Elliot (E) is 4. I just can't even believe when I first came to these boards Mo was only 2! These kids grow up on us too fast!

 

[tiggersmom2]

Well, I have a DS13, DS4 and a brand new DD on the way! I guess you can call me "an old pro", "a not so new mommy" and a "brand new mommy".

 

[Rachie0507]

I'm a mom too! I have two kids--Annie is 6 and Nate is 4. This mom thing is pretty tough I'd love to have a place to come and commiserate with more of my kind.

Ryan840, the photos you have in your signature are beautiful!!

My only son is 14 and 7 inches taller than me... I consider all of you NEW!!

Actually I started late and all of my friends have grandchildren or kids out of college and mine is in middle school. I guess I am sort of NEW....

 

[juligrl]

My two DDs are in my siggy (as is my furbaby).
Jaycie is 3
Jenna is 10 months now
and Pebbles (my furbaby) is 8

All three of them celebrate their birthdays in March!

 

[DisneyPhD]

Yeah!

So good to see some old friends here and some new faces too!

Congrats Tiggsmom2, I guess it is going to be tiggsmom and piglet soon! (I know piglet really is a boy, but I always think of him being a girl.)

juligrl, we have a couple of March birthdays in our family too (mine and DD's, my moms and my nieces all with in a few days of each other.)

I guess June/July was a good month for you in the past.

I never did get around to joining the new mommies thread after being in the moms-to-be thread, but I'd love to stay in the loop with the "pros"

My little guys turn one on Monday! And my DSS turns 12 in February - which is so hard to believe, he was not quite 6 when I first met him. Time sure does fly!

 

[almburr]

the baby turned 2 in December. I no longer have any babies. DD12,DD8,DS6,DD5 and DS2.

Never really knew where to fit in.

Hi

Shaina - 17
Michael - 8

 

[ClarabelleCowFan]

I'll join!

I have 2 DDs - Jess is 13 and Abbey is 8. I also have a little boy on the way due at the end of May (ACK!). I thought I was done but I guess God had other plans.

I don't know what to do with boys. My house is full of pink stuff, Barbies and American Girl dolls. Hoping you Moms with boys can give me some tips.

I felt the same way and wasn't quite sure what to expect with my boy but I can't imagine my world without him. Now mixed in with the ponies and the pink are rescue heroes and robots....or wobots as he says. He is such a litte lovebug. Wayyyy snugglier than my daughter is.

It will take ooooooh about 1.5 seconds to adjust to the difference.

 

[LaraK]

I'm game....two kids, Caitlin 4.5 and Connor 2.5

Awwww, thanks. That made me tear up (pregnancy hormones raging and all).

Sorry to butt in....
But thought some of you mommies might be interested in my dh's podcast:

Thanks for letting me barge in like this.

 

[juligrl]

Yeah!

juligrl, we have a couple of March birthdays in our family too (mine and DD's, my moms and my nieces all with in a few days of each other.)

I guess June/July was a good month for you in the past.

Jaycie's birthday is March 24 and Jenna's is March 18 (as is Pebbles birthday - not that I had anything to do with that).
Our anniversary is June 17
