Hi mommies. It seems I never have time for a proper post these days but I wanted to pop in and say hi. I have been having a rough time with baby #2 these days. I have so much "pelvic" area pressure I feel like the baby is just going to drop out if I move too much. I have a Dr's appt today and from what I hear this is normal. I did not have this feeling with Aidan but he never "dropped" down either. It's been hard chasing Aidan around and I still have my friends dd 3 days a week. I hope you all are well and I will post again when I can!
 
Hi Everyone,

I just put Kevin on the bus and Liam is playing at my feet with all of his birthday loot, so i've got a few minutes to finally post a proper catch-up with everyone! I took Liam for his 1 yr appointment today - He's 28 pounds and 31 inches long - OOF - he's such a big boy!

Bellacam - At around the same time in my pregnancy with # 2, I had a similar pain/pressure like you were describing. It's very normal, and just means that the baby is getting bigger. Some days, it seemed as if the baby grew overnight (or your belly grew overnight). I hope the pain starts to go away for you soon.

Buzznbelle - So glad to hear that Celeste is adjusting well to Preschool! Have a nice quiet day at home today!

Robin - My SIL and I have had the conversation numerous times how everything seems to be geared for families of 4. She was contimplating having baby # 3, but her girls are 7 and 4 and I honestly don't think she's willing to go back to diapers and no sleep. I think it's great for anyone who likes to have a large family, because it's a lot of fun having kids around. I hope the kids are behaving for you today and that Molly is feeling better.

Alisa - I really like the bedding you picked out for the baby on the way. You really get a lot of items for the money! I can't believe the story about that PTA mom - Holy cow!

Justine - Sorry you had such a bad night with the baby crying, and DH being less than helpful. I hope today is going better for everyone!

Fabumouse - LOL at the "Poo Blowout"....those are the WORST! I hope all is well!

Tamie - Cozumel sounds like a great idea. I went there when I was 18 on a daytrip from Cancun and I remember it was a nice spot for snorkeling. I had to smile when you mentioned that this may be your last trip before thinking about starting for baby # 2 - that's exciting!

Diskim - Your aunt is in my prayers. I hope that she gets some good news soon. How did Back to school night go?

SL - I hope things improve for you at work sometime soon. It's got to be really rough having so many people leave in such a short period of time.Hope you're able to catch up on your sleep tonight!

Tasha - I have to go over to the Desperate Housewives thread and see what all the fuss is about!!! Seems that Liam and Kylie are right around the same schedule for walking. He's still not walking a lot, but he did walk the other night and I have it on tape as proof! I'm thinking it'll take him a good 3-4 weeks of practice before he's actually walking to and fro around the hosue. Hope school is going well for you!

Ryan840 - Thanks for the Elmo Cake compliments - that cake came out better than I expected. I'm not a cake person really (I like salty snacks like chips and doritos) however I have friends and family who love cake so I got it made at the Wegmans Bakery. It was half chocolate and half vanilla cake with chocolate pudding.

Jill - I hope school has been going well for you! How are the girls doing after the long weekend sleepover incident? How is John? Anything else new going on?

Loretta - Any more news on the PT job front? Did you resubmit your application to the Tampa call center?

J & D - Thanks for posting the links to Overstock.com. I've never really gone on that site before and they have lots of great things - maybe i'll even order something!

Floridafam - I hope your side feels better today. When do you go for your tests? Keep us updated on how you're doing.

Nucpharm - I'm sure Matthew will be right behind Liam with the walking. I'm sorry to hear about your sister's money troubles. I think I may have missed your original post but I hope things work out.

Ginamarie - You poor thing ! I can't imagine seeing you running out the door with your baby food jars in your hand with your shirt on inside-out! Talk about a bad start to the day! Try not to worry, we all have moments like this! Hope class went well for you last night and you were able to catch up on some sleep!

Hi to Gems, DisneyPhD, Gottalovethem, Dizagain, Joats, and all of my mommy friends!

Does anyone else have the Leap Frog Pretend and Learn cash register for their children? We got one a few years ago, and Liam is playing with it now. They stopped making it for some reason (not sure why?) but it was the best toy and all the kids who come over to the house to play ALWAYS play with this toy first. It sings songs about money, making change, and it has a little scanner with tags. Not sure why i'm mentioning it, but it is a great toy and it's a shame it's not made anymore (I tried to buy one for a friend once in the store and that's how I found out).

Well, i'm off to the dry cleaners and to the supermarket. My day off from work is sometimes busier than any day at the office! Have a good day everyone!
 
Tasha - I checked out the DH thread but couldn't find the argument. I'm glad you put that person in her place though. I hate when people get high and mighty on the boards.

lissawynn - Jimmy looks so cute and innocent in his new picture. I am just not going to believe you when you say he's acting up.

Bnb and Robin - I hear ya on the difficulty of vacationing with a big family. It's like you are punished if you have more than 2 kids. I'm not planning a vacation at all this year. My friends have direct orders to slap me upside the head if I mention Disney World this year. I've got all I can handle with 2 weddings in the spring.

justhat - OMG, I had to laugh at the image of all three of them following you around the mall. I also don't like the way DH does things. He's awful when it comes to emptying the dishwasher. You would figure that since he lives in the house too, he might know where the dishes belong.

bellacam - You poor thing :grouphug: ! I felt like that when I was pregnant with Aidan. The pressure was horrible! Hang in there!

Well, I need to get some copies made, but I wanted to check in really quickly. I have Emily's back to school night tonight. DH and I are actually going to get to go together since my mom can come watch the kids. We used to be able to do everything together. With 3 kids, it has become impossible. I remember when Emmy was little, we both attended all her lessons, games, etc. Now, it's always one parent running them to something.
 
Bellacam, I had that feeling with this baby from about maybe 25 weeks till he was born. It might have even been earlier than that, I forgot. Funny how that happens cause I was miserable at the time. He felt like he was kicking his way out, but simultaneously punching my ribs. And I didn't get that with Madison till 2 days before she was born, when I assume she "dropped". This one didn't drop till I started to push so not sure why I always had so much pressure down there.

BnB, glad that Celeste likes preschool now. That makes drop off so much easier doesn't it? Madison cried every morning at drop off from the first day till mid-January last year-I thought it would never end. Her teacher said she was fine as soon as she walked in the door and she was always happy and playing when I picked her up, but drop off was a nightmare. This year though she can't wait to get there in the morning. Oh, and yeah, I hate that "I'm tired cause the baby's been up" thing too. My husband has never once gotten up with either child, mostly cause I rarely pump so he can't feed them so why get up, and I understand that, really I do. But since you're not getting up to feed and change anyone then don't tell me you're tired that your eyes momentarily cracked open during the night!

Alice28, I can imagine how hard it is to travel with 3 kids. Just 2 will be bad enough money wise, with an extra plane ticket, etc. You're going to Hawaii in March right, or planning to anyway? Do any airlines you're looking at offer reduced fares for under 2s to be in a seat? I know Molly's birthday is in March but not sure if your trip is early or late March. We got a lot of "infant" fares for Madison when she was under 2 and they were 50% of the adult price. And we actually got one when she was over 2 cause she was under 2 when I booked and I didn't think about it. Then I realized and felt bad and called the airline but the person I spoke with said since her birthday was the week before not to worry about it, they don't label the ticket as "under 2" so no one would know. I appreciated it cause the fare had gone up considerably since I booked my ticket.

And sorry to hear about your day yesterday too. I found it kinda funny that your husband had to check on your ability to call the ped like you haven't done that enough with 3 kids. My husband also suggested mylicon and tylenol last night, about an hour after I had already given him each one. They're so quick thinking sometimes. I hope your headache is gone. I'm in a very good mood today though so hopefully that will last, and hopefully you are too!

Floridafam, yes, he's a dr, and an anesthesiologist no less so talk about precision. But at home, totally different story. I asked him to bring Madison's dirty shirt upstairs Monday night, he brought up Henry's clean and folded clothes instead and told me there was no shirt of Madison's to be found. I walk halfway down the stairs and sure enough, there it is, in plain sight. So that's why I'll be going along with him to the store tomorrow. We have to get a new charger for the digital camera cause we lost ours. He claimed Best Buy didn't have them but when I went yesterday, surprise, they did. But I didn't have the model # with me so while I thought I knew which one I want to be sure. They had every type though so not sure why he thought they didn't sell them. We also have to buy a new baby gate for the top of the stairs since the one he installed ripped out of the wall the next day. It's been 2 months now and I'm really nervous since Madison seems to be forgetting about falling down the flight in July.

Speaking of that, my husband said I should not have posted that here cause one of you might report me! I said we'd all be reported if that were the case since a couple of other kids fell down the stairs the same week, not to mention how many have in the past. Sometimes I think he's insane.

Fabumouse, that picture is too cute! I loved the previous photo of Madeleine cause who can resist a sleeping baby, but this one is adorable! I hope the bedding wasn't too bad. My husband would have left the bedding as is too. While I rant about him today, when Madison was potty training she had a poopy accident while he was watching her. He cleaned her up and changed her clothes, but then left the poopy clothes for me, in a pile of dirty clothes in the laundry basket! I didn't know till days later when I washed her clothes. Imagine my surprise and joy at that.

Tasha, glad that the daycare thing worked out even better than you had planned. And great that you can still take your vacation cause I think they're very important. You've got me interested in the DH thread now!

Lissawynn, that is the sweetest photo of Jimmy!

Just heard a loud noise come from Henry's diaper. Gotta go!
 

Sorry to butt in here. I'm am not pregnant nor am I a new mom (my youngest is 9)
but I thought some of you may be interested in the podcast my dh does. He is a practicing pediatrician and he did this podcast b/c he never seems to have the time to devote to educating the parents in his practice. There's so much he wants to explain and talk about, but a full waiting room of patients makes him forced to give the Cliff notes version.

He does segments on infants, toddlers, school age kids and teens, so there's something for everything. This week's was a bit different b/c of some timely news topics that have come up (infant formula recall and the spinach thing)

But...I hope you'll give it a listen. He gets emailed questions in and he just LOVES to answer those b/c then he feels like his show is parent focused. Feel free to email him with a question. If you have any feedback (good OR bad) please feel free to email him or send me a private message (sorry, I probably won't keep up with this thread)

You can find his podcast at www.pediascribe.com/podcast (or it's in my siggy) or you can search for "Pediacast" in the iTunes store. :)

Thanks for listening!!!
 
Well, hello and goodbye...just sat down and....you would think Carson would SLEEP since he's only slept a total of about an hour since 5:30. No such luck, I guess. I will try to catch up later AFTER I report justhat's DH to CPS because he didn't install a gate properly and several months ago his daughter fell down the stairs - he did that on purpose, you know. :rolleyes: :rotfl2: Bye!!
 
Let's see how far I get today... I was inspired by everyone's new siggie pics so I finally got around to updating mine, although I'm not happy with the green border but I'm way too lazy to mess around anymore :crazy:

dizagain- I know how you feel about Carson not sleeping, my little sleeper (the only thing he was good for :rolleyes: - ok, he's good for kissing and mashing too :p ) has decided that sleep just isn't important and often drives me nuts as he's exhausted and only happy in my arms.

Robin- I'm glad Molly doens't have an ear infection, sorry she's sick though! I can't wait to see your pictures of them in their costumes, I don't think I ever mentionedhow adorable they looked in the pics you posted way back when.

Jill- I meant to wish you good luck with the girls sleepover but never did so you can blame me for all the chaos! You are a better mom that I for putting up with that stuff, I have no patience for it. Happy early birthday to Katie!!! (I think you said it's Friday, right?)

justhat- I'm sorry you had such a rough night and that your DH is of no help. It can be so frustrating can't it? My DH is guilty of many of the things everyone has been mentioning lately, including leaving poopy clothes for me to take care of. I'm glad you're in a better mood today!

Well, that's as far as I can get, Jack is not happy with me for putting him in his saucer. fabumouse- I love the new pic of Madeliene, that face is too cute! Kailey looks very cute too!

Gotta go!
 
All of these new siggy pics are SO adorable! DH is home and is exhaused. He only got 3 hours of sleep before he came home. Looks like he'll be no help to me tonight. What am I going to do with Jimmy for the next 5 hours?

I am being observed tomorrow and I need to get my stuff together so I can relax tomorrow morning.

TTYL!

Btw, Jimmy only LOOKS innocent! ;)

In the last photo, he looked like he was cooking up trouble, so he deserves an angelic turn. :angel:

If anyone is around - I started a thread on peeing one's pants. Not that anyone on this thread might ever have that problem. ;)
 
fabumouse, I peeked at your thread- looks like some nice tags might be coming out of there!

I finally got around to putting the boys pictures I had taken onto the computer, if anyone wants to see them here is the link. It was for Jack's 6 mos and Alex's 3 year.
 
Ryan840, I just looked at your photos. They're adorable!! I can't believe you got so many great shots with both kids. Incredible. How did you ever decide which ones to buy? I would have gone broke. Oh, and great taste in clothes-Henry has both of those outfits Jack is wearing, and the Old Navy 2006 is in green too. I'm beginning to think we're way too alike. (BTW, we've got a tempurpedic bed too!)

Gotta help Madison in the potty. Somehow New Nick apparently has pee on him. Not sure how that happens with a girl, but whatever.
 
Hey everyone- great new siggie pics Fab, Ryan & Alisa! Everyone sure looks cute. inspired me to share this pic of Molly taken last Saturday at the bouncy place.
Fall2006030.jpg
Once she got used to the footing, she was a wild child!

Justhat- Molly turns 2 on March 8th, and we want to do our traveling about the last week of March, so I can't get the discount fare. I thought about that. I did point out to DH that, ahem, at least Molly is still free at Disney! And he said, "I thought we had to pay once they turn 2" and I said, "Oh no, it's THREE!" He just gave me a look.

I'm glad you are in a better mood cause I'm not! Still have just the edge of a headache, but decided I needed to try and whip our front yard into shape - it looks pretty bad. So I went to the Depot and bought some Mums, bark chips, round-up, fertilizer and grass seed. And then as I am working my tail off, I get madder and madder at my DH. I love him, he is a helpful man, he loves the kids, dotes on me often, but as far as general yard and housework goes, he sucks. ESP on the yard. And I was just getting so mad thinking how he wants to move to a BIGGER house with a BIGGER yard and guess who will still have to do everything? Me. Sometimes I feel like he takes no pride in our home and keeping it looking nice, especially the outside. He's always telling me to call a gardener, but ladies, I swear to you, our front yard is tiny- I would feel stupid needing a gardener. It's literally like a 7'x13' patch of grass in the front, along with a raised rose bed, and then oh, a 3'x20' strip along the driveway. And then the back yard, which is decent sized but not big by any means. Is anyone else's DH like that? He was on a tear again last night about why we should move and I thought his reasoning was ridiculous. He is very afraid of the kids across the street having a very negative influence over our kids when they are all teens. Sam already knows that those kids are fine to play with, but that they get in trouble a lot and he knows that's not good. I just thought it was a stupid thing to worry about, esp because I would say there is an 80-90% chance they won't live here then.

Anyway, I just had to rant a minute. It's almost like my kids with their toys- they have SO MUCH and yet they want something bigger and better when they don't even appreciate what they have right in front of them, nor do they take care of it. I feel like my DH is being the same way about a house- why do we want to invest a ton of money into a bigger and nicer house when you won't even mow the darn lawn or fertilize it twice a year? Or pull a weed? Or mount a TV on the wall that your wife has been nagging you to do for 8 weeks?

I better just stay away from the phone cause if I call him, I will regret it right now!

Bellacam- ironically, I had that feeling with my 1st. I carried him so low. By about 35 weeks I couldn't walk anymore and I stopped working sooner than planned. I mean, I could walk, but not far! It hurt so much! Sometimes that feeling subsides though- I hope it will for you!

OK, I need to go lay down. Molly is asleep and I am tired from having her in our bed all last night. Even with a king, somehow that girl managed to crowd me to the edge!
 
justhat- Too funny about the outfits! I guess my Gymbo habit is out of the closet ;) I actually just got into it this summer when I found out that it's actually cheaper to shop sales there than to buy at Target or Wal-mart and the like, then there's the resale factor. I LOVE that Old Navy set, the hat had to grow on me but I think he looks so silly and cute in it. You'll have to post a pic of Henry wearing his.
I remember you saying you had a temperpedic bed and I must confess that we got ours because you mentioned that it could be folded to fit up the steps- that and the rave reviews Robin gave hers! It's funny you mention getting good pics of the boys together, because the poor girl worked her butt off trying to get Jack to smile that day and he REFUSED! We were all laughing and I was really surprised at how well they all turned out. And I spent more than I've ever spent on those pictures because I couldn't decide- usually I get the $8 package but this time it was $50 or $60 WITH the half off coupon, and that was only for the ones of them together- the others were different sittings. It's amazing where pee ends up, isn't it?

Robin- That pic of Molly is too cute! And I know what you mean about not even having enough room in a king bed- Alex sleeps horizontally in between us so we're always shoved to the edges too. That's why we were just dying in the queen size. Can't wait til Jack starts to crawl in with us too, it should make for a fun time :rolleyes:

I gotta run, I have a Dr. appt and then we're having spaghetti and meatballs at my parents house, yum!

EDITED FOR TYPO: The hat had to grow on my but :rotfl: :teeth:
 
I'm trying to order Henry's nursery photos (yes, a bit late, I know) but that's not working right now so I thought I'd check back in here. Alice28, love the photo of Molly. And love the dress too. ;) Madison almost wore that to school today, but I only bought the long sleeve shirt for it and it was near 80 degrees today. She did wear a Gymbo outfit, that summer line with light blue, yellow, and ivory with tiny flowers on it (same one that has the light blue elephant dress). I bought the shoes with that line too, which I almost never do, so she looked pretty cute, if I say so myself. I think I have a photo of her in that outfit on our other computer so if I do I'll post it.

Gotta say that our husbands could be related. Really, I think every man on this thread could be. Except maybe Zalansky's husband cause I don't think I've ever heard her complain about him not helping enough. If I'm right with that, tell me what the secret is! ;) And I've been waiting on wall mounting the tv since it came in May. If he ever does that then we can move the dvd player off the of the floor and I can get in/out of my closet without moving it. Wouldn't that be nice. The dvd player that we bought in March when our old one died, just 1 month before he bought a Bose system that includes a dvd player. :furious: :furious: Cause we needed to spend money on 2 of them!!! And just in case anyone is wondering, yes, I agreed to the Bose thing, but I had no idea it included a dvd player.

My husband just called and is on his way home and wants to go out to eat. He must feel guilty cause he hates this place.
 
well seeing as we are all changing our siggy pictures I have done mine, but I can't get to grips with the Photobucket resizing thing now that they have changed it, so I might have to mess with that a little more!

Ryan - your sig pics are adorable! I love the one where they are looking at ech other so cute!! :)

Lissa - Jimmy is a cutie pie too! Do you still call him EK? Cos I don't think he looks like EK in that pic!! :teeth:

Robin - Molly is getting such a big girl! She looks like she is having so much fun! :banana:


Bellacam - I have got the low down pelvic pain too! It really hurts sometimes and nothing seems to ease it. I am not lookng forward to another 17 weeks ofthis!

Justhat - Sorry the baby was crying - my DH sound similar to yours, I think that they just don't see things the way we do and that they don't think at all!!

Fabmouse - we had poo blowout on Friday night when Shelby had the food poisoning, our bed, shelby, clothes, and bed sheets were all covered in it, cleaning that lot up was not what I wanted to be doing at 3am. kids huh! :sad2:

Hi to everyone else that I missed, we are watching the last two episodes of Lost to refresh our memories before the third season starts next week, we download them off the web and watch them at the same time as you guys then. I can't wait to see what happends next!!!!

we have had a few more entries to the Christmas Exchange -

Hey - maybe I can make it through a post now. Carson is being entertained by three girls singing and playing the piano! I have fifteen minutes until we have to leave for piano lessons.

Anyway, I guess it must be the weather/season change with the DH's...trying to find an excuse for their behavior as mine is just as bad lately. Yesterday he came home just as I needed to leave to pick up Hayley and he actually told me he would go...I asked him to stay with Carson instead and he said no. I told him I hadn't left the house in two days and he said, "Isn't that what you want? To stay home with the kids and not go out to work???" I'm assuming he has other issues as he's not usually so outright obnoxious, so who in the heck knows what I have in store for me tonight!! And our neighborhood lost power for like an hour last night and it was MY fault (of course) that the flashlights I keep all over the house were missing in action. Never mind that we only use the darn things like once in a blue moon and DD's manage to find plenty of uses in the mean time! I bought two today and laid them on his pillow - he can sleep with them tonight if he wants to! :)

Anyway, you guys have the CUTEST KIDS!! I''m loving all the new pictures today and I promise I will try to get some up eventually. :)

Bellacam and T16Gem - Sorry about the pelvic woes. It's still very fresh in my memory and I thought Carson was going to just fall out every time I got up those last few weeks. Hang in there!

justhat - Hope Henry doesn't have a repeat evening and maybe your DH is shaping up since he's taking you to dinner somewhere he doesn't like! ;) Hope so!

fabumouse - glad you had some time to create eye-catching threads today - Madeliene must be doing great! Kailey's note is TOO CUTE...just wait, soon she'll be after you to let her e-mail the teacher as well. Hannah always comes up with excuses for things and expects me to let her loose on the computer - NOT!!!

Alice28 - BREATHE. Ok, good...one more time now...hope your evening is an improvement on your day! :cheer2:

Diskim - Have fun at back-to-school night! I'm still praying for your aunt... Oh yes, and don't let those PTA MOM MONSTERS intimidate you. I finally got over it and went about my business. I always volunteer for shifts at events but I will NOT get tangled up in the politics...they need to get a life.

Well, a big hi to everyone. I didn't get to finish so I'll try to get back later...gotta get the boy in the carseat!
 
OK, my day has gone from bad to worse. Here's me right now- :sad: :sad: , literally. Why I choose to come vent on the computer is beyond me. I already called my mom and DH- no I didn't vent on DH, I got over that quickly enough.

I posted about the street drama yesterday.

Today I go out to clean up my mess I left in the front yard from planting and the dumb kid from next door (the neighbor who blew up- his grandson) says, "You call the cops?" (he's 6 and has a speech problem). I said, "What?"
Him- You call the cops?

Me- Yes.

Him- Why?

Me- (sighing and see his grandpa across the street) 'because those boys were being naughty and the police needed to talk to them.'

Him- "oooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....we thought it was cause my PaPa."

Me- :eek: :scared: I glared at the grandpa, who wouldn't look at me, and went in the house.

I'm so sick of living in the middle of white trash central, I cannot even tell you. For 9 and a half years I have tried to ignore it, I've tried to roll with it, I've been nice and civil to these people when all I have wanted to do is scream at them to clean up their darn yard and have a little class. Our neighborhood is what I would call working class soon to turn into yuppiville, but not quite there yet. It's almost all historic homes, which are becoming 'hot' and new restaurants are going in, homes selling for $300-500K, that were selling for under 100-200 9 years ago. There are many reasons we want to stay, as I've shared, but I will not put up with neighbors being passive aggressive with me & mad because I called the police about a fight in the street. With 8 children standing there gawking.

Dh and I grew up in yuppie-ville and wanted to get away from it- we hated living in Beemer-country USA where you were poor if you didn't dress in Guess and Esprit. We wanted to have some 'normal' neighbors who worked hard and yet had good manners, etc....not snobs like practically everyone we knew. That's why we moved to OR, and why we chose Oregon City. All the suburbs on the west side of town are like carbon copy California burbs. No thanks. But enough is enough. I called DH gulping back the tears and saying, "I can't put up with their crap anymore...I just can't...."

DH, whom I dissed earlier and now am regretting it, whose whole JOB is to diffuse unpleasant situations, and he's GOOD at it, is marching his buns over there tonight when he gets home to set things straight and to give him a small piece of his mind, and yet without losing an iota of his temper. Plus in our little neighborhood, he's still kind of viewed as the 'hero' and people are a bit intimidated by him. I cannot wait til he's home. I could tell he was pi$$ed by what I told him, and it takes a lot to make him mad, so when he is, watch out. Especially when he has time to think awhile because he is a master with words.

I'll update you more later. Sorry for all my whining lately. I also think I am going through a MAJOR hormonal dip/surge as the depo should be wearing off and a normal Aunt Flo should be here any day....I just feel sooooooooo depressed and moody! :guilty:
 
I am too cranky and crampy to do a full post. Robin, I'm with you awaiting AF and miserable. :furious: :badpc: :furious:

I LOVE all the new siggie photos...they are gorgeous!! I'm staying up on top of what's going on w/all of you and hope to post more soon.

I'm going to take my cranky butt upstairs and park it on the couch with the bag of FLIPZ (chocolate covered pretzels....a PMSers dream) I just bought at the grocery store and watch the tube.

Just wanted to let you know I was thinking about you all.
 
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....flipz...............I always HAVE to buy the chocolate covered Mickey pretzels at WDW (I think they are exactly Flipz)- they are killer! Mixes the PMS necessities all in one- chocolate, salt and crunchy! Heaven! Hope you enjoy them.

I gave myself a shot about 40 minutes ago and am feeling a little better about things. When I called my mom she was just like, "Stop thinking about things....you obviously are feeling down, and it makes no sense to try and even think about moving when you feel sick or have a headache."

Moms are so smart.
 
Hello everyone! :goodvibes

The new sigs are gorgeous! I've added mine as well. I can't believe I only have about 6 wks left till I go back to work. We've hired my niece to be our Nanny. The woman I hired quit before she started. It's going to cost a lot, but for the sake of having family and flexibility it will be worth it, and she won't be live in.
Dean is doing awesome, climbing around the furniture, just trying to get going. I hate that he puts everything in his mouth though! :guilty:

I can't wait for the Christmas exchange!
