yuck have fun getting the house ready!

Morning! Just popping in quick before I take DD to school. Looks like another beautiful day here.

magsnden-as long as you leave that ticker up, we could all keep track of your pregnancy. I don't buy the girls one piece bathing suits anymore either. 2 piece are just so much easier when you have make that potty run.

Gotta run. Be back later.

DD wears the rash shirts from LandsEnd and DH gets some from CA when he goes there.
LandsEnd had a HUGE sale earlier this month and DD and I racked in some serious Amex points buying bathing suits-since we wear them almost year round and for our upcoming trip.
I like the BeachLiving line. I have 2 of the swim minis that match my tankini tops-cute enough to make an "ice run" if need be. I never know when I invite people to swim if they really are or not and I hate to "entertain" in a bathing suit. These are great.

Here are the Sale links:

Girls:

The LandsEnd rash shirts are very well lined(a concern for a growing girl) and they have matching tankinis-even for the little girls. I buy them a bit large since they tend to run snug-too hot says DD.
When our water gets too hot DD wears her tankini bottoms with just the shirt. She says it is cooler that way.

glad they got there alright.

Have fun with the prom prep.
They grow up so fast-but still like to play dress up
I'm a weepy mom, DH puddles up too-I would be/will be a watery mess getting DD ready for Prom.

Happy Friday friends...this week has flown by so fast for me! I can't believe its nearly the weekend already. Not that I have lots of plans, I mostly am fretting about driving down to JFK tonight to pick up my Dad. I'm hoping to avoid traffic.

All this talk of bathing suits! I do tan well myself, except for my forehead! For some reason, not only do I burn, but I turn magenta! I'm a fanatic about sunscreen, especially on my face. I'm the only one of my 37 cousins who has freckles...let me tell you how many people who have asked me why I have them if I'm Asian! (I have a Swiss grandmother, its her fault).

Its so good to hear that all the parents out there are teaching and protecting their kids early against sun exposure. You are laying the groundwork for healthy habits.

Happy Prom going! Wow, what a specia night its going to be. My twins have theirs next weekend. They do grow up so fast, but its wonderful to see them in their formal finery. I can't wait for pictures!

Magsnden...when they calculate the day of the baby's conception, they ask you when your last period was. Based on that, its 14 days from then that the next egg wass released and that's when the magic happened...so that's why you add those two weeks.

Hi (love this smilie)
Thanks for mentioning Webmaster Alec's post. At least it gives a hint about what happened. I can't believe I go away for a few days and you know what hits the fan! I missed all of the confusion.
I've have my pictures ready for my trip report. Now I have to do the hard part...writing up an interesting TR! I don't write or talk much so it will be hard for me.
Have a lovely prom and birthday party!

See what happens when you go away? Crazy, crazy stuff. Can't wait to read your trip report though. And I'd love to see the pics. Been having so much fun looking at DD's pics and seeing the world through her eyes.

i thought of something....if you look at my ticker you can see exactly how old the baby is!!! of course when they figure the dates they add 2 weeks, something i've always considered strange. but i think that's called the baby's gestational age.

so today i'm actually 15 weeks pregnant! yay!
i'm already getting big, seriously, i'm freaked out by this!

Just a "drive by" so only a few comments

Magsnden - Thanks for the link... that suit is too cute!

I got WAY bigger WAY earlier this time around... kind of caught me off guard too.

What is a "rash shirt?" I've never heard of it, but DS seems to be pretty pale skinned (He's always been well lathered up in heavy sunscreen in the past, but the older he gets the more he resists... I'd be up for something a bit easier on us both.)

 

[lighttech]

M&N-don't reply to any of those type of threads you see on here for the next couple of days. Alot of people have been banned in the past week and there's a whole big mess going on. Webmaster Alex posted earlier with this thread. http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1803492

Must admit my interest was piqued as well... I just skimmed that thread real quick... but mostly b/c I can't figure out what in the world could have caused such a stir.

But, honestly, I've got enough drama in my own life. I do hope that no one has been treated unfairly though... whatever happened. I've had so many people be so nice to me on these boards... I guess I assumed there were more good vibes to go around than there actually are. I've so far been happy just getting some extra good disney info., reliving my vacations thru others TRs and hanging out w/ my buddies here. (And trying to save the occasional 0 response thread!)

Well, gotta run.

 

[lighttech]

OK, just saw Bopsmoms links... Have a better idea what a rash shirt is now. How cute! And smart too!

Ahhhh... none of those suits for me this summer... my very large, very belly covering suit is hanging in my closet. I'm pretty comfortable w/ my preggo look, but I was pregnant in the winter months last time. I've never had to negotiate a swim suit while expanded. I must admit I have my doubts about the whole thing.

 

[pepperw23]

Hi guys!!! I missed everyone yesterday.

Too funny with the ticker!!!!!!

Is this one better? Funny I thought the same thing when I did it but figured everyone would know what I mean lol. Wonder how many Dissers think I am pregnant.

Magsden- Yep, got me a Dennis lol.

Thanks everyone for your input on Beaker. I ignored the text and when he asked me if I got it I said yes, but I like to limit my Texts/phone calls by "employees" to calling in sick or late because those things are expensive". I went on to say "I hope you understand" I felt like such a SNOOT!!! But I gotta have piece of mind.

Dreamin- I have mixed emotions about family going along. On the one hand I agree because the teachers need to focus on the students and their safety, and not be worried about chasing their own children around. But on the other hand I understand as a Mom how hard it would be to leave my two behind. Tough call. I hope at least the families paid their own way.

Disney 54- Prom oh the memories. But the real question is how are you holding up? I did okay when it was my DS, but somehow next year when it is my turn to send DD off to prom it is going to be a major kleenex moment...my baby.

I have not read through, I need to catch up. Hello to everyone.

 

[dreamin in pa]

pepperw23-love the new ticker. This one is much clearer. How did beaker react when you told him?

 

[lighttech]

No more confusion Pepper! Now we know exactly what you are saying.

Well, I'm just popping on quick before bed. Got some more cleaning done, and some laundry. I have to work tomorrow, and then tomorrow night will be cake making and decorating. Then, hopefully, I'll be able to finish sweeping up and decorating on Sunday before the troops show up.

DS is super excited... as a matter of fact, I just went into his room to re-tuck him in!! Its almost 11! He's always out by 9 at the latest even if he's rammy, but I heard this tiny little voice as I sat down for my DIS moment and realized he was still up. (Apparently his stuffed animals were not listening and wouldn't go to sleep . We decided that if they were keeping him up, that wasn't very nice and they would have to be put away instead of sleeping w/ him. They decided to listen then. )

Anyway, have a good night all! I'm off to try to fall asleep amidst DHs snoring and (hopefully) no more singing from DSs room until morning.

Just noticed you were on. 'Night Dreamin'! Hmmm - night dreaming... sounds kind of funny together... or appropriate... Oh geez. I must be really tired, I'm just rambling.

BTW - What do you guys think of Colin Stewart? Its a name we are considering. (Stewart was my grandfather, and the Stuart clan is my Scottish heritage, so it sort of does double duty.)

Colin Stewart...mmm....sounds good (had to say it in that authorative mom's voice in my head first ) Seriously, I like it! That's cool that you could find a middle name that represents two seperate important things in your lives.

Hope your DS has a great time at his party on Sunday. Wanna see a pic of the cake. I love cake even if I can't bake for anything.

ps....my DH turned on QVC to watch For Race Fans Only tonight and I got to tell him that I knew someone who worked there. Of course he didn't believe me at first but he sure was impressed when I threatened to smack him upside the head.

 

[pepperw23]

Mornin' everyone.

Just checking in. Getting ready to head to the ODAC tournament in Lynchburg, so I won't be on all weekend (See I'm following our check in rule ha ha) DS had a horrible game on Thur so we decided to go offer some extra support.

pepperw23-love the new ticker. This one is much clearer. How did beaker react when you told him?

Pretty good. He reacts well to my corrections I have noticed. That is a plus. yesterday I flat out told him that I get nervous easy and he seemed to back off. I didn't direct it towards him at all, but I think he took the hint. Tried to put his wife on the phone again and I told him I was too busy but to tell her hello for me. He keeps hinting that she needs a job....yea, not gonna happen

I love that name!! Sounds like a ball player...watch... say this out loud in an announcer voice:

"Now up to bat Collin Stewart...insert last name"

Yep, DH says if a kid has a ball player name he is set for life ha ha. We are way too baseball obsessed our DS was specifically named because DH thought his name sounded like a ball player.

Ooohhh it also sounds like a Dr. Name "Dr. Collin Stewart, please report to ER" Yea, I'm a dork...it's official. I think it is a great name. good job.


Oh, have fun tomorrow at DS party.



Disney54- How was prom? I bet she had a blast.

DL55- Looking forward to reading your trip report. I still have not made my ADR's. I am stuck on the Animal Kingdom day for dinner and the Magic Kingdom day for dinner. We are not much on exotic foods so I am really struggling with AK day. uggg ha ha

I will see you all probably Monday night or Tuesday.

You can tell DH that not only does the person you know work there, but she used to go out and do the lighting for those remotes regularly. I've lit shows at Chicago Motor Speedway, Talladega, Dover, Indianapolis.... ummm, I think thats it. (When you are just working and not doing a lot of sleeping, they tend to run together.) I've gotten to see Gordon, Petty, Harvick and Stewart in person (although didn't really talk to them, they get whisked in and out pretty quick since race weekends are so busy.) If he still needs a smack, I can send you a copy of some of my media/pit passes.

Thanks for the name input. I think I really like it. DH isn't quite sold yet.

And, I'm glad Beaker is reacting well. Have a great time this weekend. Hope the games go great!

Good afternoon. I am fairly new to this board. I joined in 2006 but didn't start posting alot until recently. I am not able to call myself a threadkiller as I have yet to start a thread but I have noticed that I tend to be invisible. I will post in a thread and no one acknowledges me. Why oh why can't people see me?
