Thanks! Exactly!!

Yeah it gets old after a while. Especially in the 3rd tri. I was SO ready to get Alex out by the end I was practically begging my Dr to Induce me haha! I was 40 weeks and 5 days along when he finally came....induced, in labor for 16 hours and had to do a c-section because I couldn't get past 2 1/2 cm dilated. Blah! But yeah, all that is worth it and you totally forget about it all almost immediately! Hell, I'm already TTC #2 if that tells you anything

Aww a baby boy! That's awesome. What names have ya picked out?



too funny. My PTR is dead LOL. I don't know what to do with it. I haven't done one in so long.

just start posting pics of alex

or you could start asking people favorite places to eat

Thank you. I hope that everything works out and you eventually get there too!



Wow, 16 hours and THEN a c-section. That's a little brutal. Glad that you were able to put it to the back of your mind after! And already trying for #2? That's quick! Hopefully it doesn't take as long as last time. I think we are only going to have one. We will decide in a couple years if we want to try for one more. But no more than two!

We have mutually decided on Seth and Noah. But there is one I like better than those that he doesn't like. And one he likes better that I don't like, lol. I like Liam, and he likes Dion. And I just realized after looking at them all together that we might need to throw some names that aren't 4 letters in there, lol.

short names are great when it comes for them having to write their names in school all time

Yeah...it was crazy and you can see how tired and worn out I am in post birth pics. It was such a whirlwind that I hardly remember any of it really which sucks. And thanks. I really hope it doesn't. But if we get to the 5 year mark again I think that'll be it for us. Just say Alex is an only child and go on with our lives. I agree with you though...no more than two. I can only handle the same # of children as I have hands. If I had more than that I'd go crazy!

I really like Noah A friend of mine had a baby in October and she named him Noah. Very cute! It is hard to agree on names though. But Chris and I had 5 years to think about it so we had already decided I really hope that if I have another baby it's a girl and I can name her Melissa after my sister. She passed away when she was 17. And who says you need a name that has more than 4 letters!? My Bro and SIL named all their boys short names. Cole, Max and Sam

Agreed...nothing wrong with short names. Your kids will thank u later

All of my kids have 4 letter words... I mean 4 letter names.

You crack me up

I made sure to give my kids short names. It was hard to learn how to write Michele and I knew how hard it had been for Stephanie to learn how to write her name.

Hi!!

I guess short names are probably best. It's just kind of weird that we picked only short names, lol. It wasn't intentional.

Songs that suit them? I think at least. Hailey is Hailey, need I say more? So far everybody else has been okay.

I thought Casey was amazing tonight.

Hi ladies! Hope everyone is doing well today. It's almost Friday!

This week has been full so it feels like it's been 2 weeks in one. You guys ever have weeks like that? Well, yesterday 2 of my friends had their babies! One lives in VA so I can't see them which I HATE but the other is here in GA so we spent the day at the hospital with them since her baby was in the nursery being monitored for breathing. She had a placental abruption so her baby had to be born via emergency c-section 4 weeks early. But the baby is doing beautifully so they are saying they should be able to go home tomorrow which is wonderful! We are going back up to the hospital this afternoon to see them so I'm hoping their baby will be with them so I can hold her. She's so itty bitty compared to Alex now. It's crazy! Oh and we talked yesterday about newborn pictures and she's going to let me try my hand at hers. I can't wait! I ordered a book about photographing children and babies, a new flash for my camera and a few other things. I'm super excited!!!

I watched it last night. Theme was songs from the movies. Overall I liked it...a few didn't do anything for me.

I really didn't like Casey's song choice ... but he did do well and should be fine this week. I just didn't get it

I will ask her permission to post them after I take them so I can share with y'all. Newborn pics are very special! I told her I'm no professional though so if she wants to get them taken elsewhere after I take some then that's fine with me. But you gotta start somewhere, right? I'm thinking if I get good enough and can start collecting the equipment I need then I can maybe do this as a side job.

I enjoyed Idol last night. Lauren was great...I DO think she sang it better than Miley. But WOW did they ever rip on Miley Cyrus back stage huh?!!! I bet Billy Ray is on a rampage!

Loved Scotty, as usual.

I have to admit, Haley did good with the Blondie song. She still drives me batty though.

Yeah, I actually like Hailey last night. I agree it didn't "stretch" her but it was good (and I really can't stand her either)

My fav was James and I do not like that kind of music, in general, but there is just something special about him.

I hope Lauren stays in ... I'm worried about her. I like her waaaaay more than Haley but I think Lauren may go soon...

Hmmm, Scotty is still my #2, but I hate to say this but I want to see him do something else. Yes, I know he is country and yes as Randy says, if it ain't broke don't fix it , so Scotty is never going to do anything else.

But wouldn't it be cool if he did?

OH, and I really enjoyed Paul last night!!

Thanks Cheri! I can't wait to see how I can get them to come out. I'm pretty proud of some of the shots I've gotten of Alex recently and that was just playing around
