Robin- in regards to what your son should call you and your partner.....I think it is highly appropriate for him to call you both mommy and there is nothing wrong with it. He is after all going to have two moms. You may want to find two variations like mommy for one of you and mami for the other to keep the confusion down...lol

Maybebaby- You make us all feel inadequate...lol. I have yet to buy the first thing for ours....let alone wash anything.

Havana- Nice catch..... we went fishing 3 weeks ago and had a shark caught in the line....not a big one mabey a four footer. It was exciting for our 6 year old.

Just Peachy- You're funny telling me to be patient as you hardly come across as patient yourself...lol. It is just weird to know that you have someone growing inside of you and not really feel anything. Swollen tummy and swollen feet are my only sign besides the bigger boobs.

lorenali- Congrats on the girls.

Cat- When you are done with painting your nursery you can come and do ours...lol. Seriously, we moved our dd to the bigger bedroom and now we are using the smaller room as the nursery. The bottom half of the wall is bubble gum pink... It will take forever to Killz that.

Anyone heard from Joy or did I miss her post?

iluvmy2mutts- At first I only had my right foot swell now it is both, and bad. I drink about 2-3 liters of water a day.

Boston- I can't wait to find out for sure what it is that you are having.

Lorenali- Congratulations on having girl's!! That is great news! How exciting to know for sure! Hope your headaches go away soon.

Bri- Okay, well it's definitely not from lack of water. Sounds like you are drinking plenty. Hmmm...when is your next dr.'s visit?

Peachy- Such a cute pic of Dh & Cooper. Does Cooper jump in the water?

I am having bizarre dreams, anyone else? I am leaving for NYC (Cat, they have the BEST pizza)tomorrow to visit my relatives so I won't be on the computer as much. I might go into withdrawls not hearing from my girl's. Maybe I will get to lurk around late at night. Be back on the 13th. I don't know why but most of the time when I try and add a smiley face or something onto my posts they don't show up.

Havana - great picture!

Peachy - cool...I'll have to check out the Mutsy this weekend. Just the regular 4-Rider is on sale ($200 off) at the store near me. When I had a glucose tolerance test many years ago, they drew my blood three times (once each hour) after I had the yucky drink. Do they only take your blood once for the test now? That would be so much better! I'm happy to hear you handed of your last buyer until the baby is born. Defintiely a good idea to start simplifying!

Alicia - congratulations on the twin girls!!!

LineaLI - it's good to see you here again!!!

Nathalie - yes, I have had some very bizzare dreams the past two nights. One was me hanging out with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie and basically moving in with them. Last night I had a dream that I had like 5 kids and every single one was born fully grown...and they were all replicas of my sister...not just in looks but in volatile temperment and laziness too. I remember screaming and crying a lot in my dream!! Have fun in NYC!!! Is the taxi strike over?

Bri - I'm one of those weird people with tons of patience for things out of my control (like the baby moving) and no patience when I'm in charge of something. I guess I didn't worry too much about feeling the baby since I knew it was only a matter of time and there was nothing I could do. Plus, when I was admitted to the hospital, I got this weird nurse on the morning shift who kept going on and on about how I should be feeling the baby and I was only 16 weeks. It was such the inappropriate thing to say to someone in the hospital that I actually had a good laugh about it with my Mom who was there.

Nat - Have fun in NYC!! I really miss going up there for day trips from Philly and hopefully the weather is starting to cool off. Are you going to do some baby window shopping?? I'm sure there are some amazing stores in the city. Cooper jumps in the water and splashes around but we haven't been able to get him to really swim yet. I've been having weird dreams too. Last night was George Clooney though so I won't complain!

Boston - What a great sale on the Mutsy. Wow. Definitely go check it out. They seem to always have the lime green one in the stores here but it comes in lots of different colors. Be sure to have someone tell you about it b/c it has so many different gadgets and options. I'm really surprised I don't see many more of them out there.

Great! I'm definitely going to check out the Mutsy, Peachy. It looks like they have the red and the lime green in stock...I really like the red. I wonder what the difference is between the 4-Rider and the 4-Rider light (the one you got). The spokes on the tires are different but that's all I can tell without seeing it in person. The 4-Rider light must be lighter than the regular 4-rider...

Boston- LOL! On the Brangelina dreams!! Oooo...scary the ones of your sister's "clones" though! I would have freaked at that one too. I am praying that my baby doesn't have the bad temper tantrums that I remember my sister having when we were little. Yikes!!

Peachy- Yes, I wouldn't complain about the Clooney dream either! Yes, I am going to do a little shopping in NYC, in between bites of pizza (it is my favorite thing there). I am so glad that you handed off that buyer too. You can take it a little easier now. Maybe Cooper is afraid he will sink! Boxer's don't have too much body fat. OMG, I cannot believe that nurse was saying that to you while you were in the hospital! Some people are unbelieveable.

Walked Jake, got stuck in the rain. Hasn't rained in weeks and this downpour comes out of nowhere. I just had to laugh because Jake hates the water and he would squint to the point of not being able to see in front of him.

Good Afternoon Everyone!

Nathalie- thanks, the one in the hat is one of my favourites as well
Congrats LineaLi on your baby boys!
Alicia- congrats on your baby girls!
Bri01-no need to feel in adequate the only reason I washed the sheet was because i just bought the soap and I was just like “hmm, I wonder how this detergent is” it was total impulse and the only thing I washed!
Peachy- I’m glad you get a well deserved break!

We received the stroller last night and were pleasantly surprised! It’s brand new! It turn out my co-workers sister is a visual merchandiser and the stroller was used in a display at Lululemon (a yoga store) she had all the packaging and everything! We love it! Thanks for all the input ladies

HI Girls!

Maybe-Congrats on the great deal on the stroller! THat is so cute that you were strolling the baby around your house. I made DH do that in BRU! At least no one could see you!

Lorenali-Congrats on your baby girls! I know you and DH must be thrilled! How are you feeling these days? Eating any cheesburgers yet?

Lineali-WOW! 2 boys!!Congratulations!! Also, how are you doing/feeling?

Natalie-Ive been having weird dreams for awhile. I dreamt that I gave birth to 2 hampsters. Also that I had a deformed baby that was 2 inches long. Mine are scary!!

Robin-Go blue!

I just got back from the perintologist and I have good news and not so good news. The good news is the baby is doing really well. He now weighs 1 pound! He's so sweet and it was weird this time because I could feel him reacting to the ultrasound wand. Bump Bump!! Get off of there! So the not so good news is that my placenta has not budged one bit. Its still 1 centimeter next to my cervix. The dr. said my activities are still to be normal, but that I come back in 6 weeks again. If the placenta hasnt moved by then, they start talking about an action plan for C sections, bedrest etc.. He still felt optimistic that it could move in the next 6 weeks. We'll see. I'm fine about it either way. Im just so happy that the tiny man is doing well!! I couldnt post without a proud pic now could I? Top foot and the bottom body sucking thumb with his fee in the air.

Havana - GREAT pictures!!! Can you believe your little guy weighs 1 pound?! Exciting! Sorry to hear that your placenta hasn't moved. It sounds like you're in good hands...and, if you do have to go on bedrest, you have Peachy nearby to keep you company, right? I still can't believe how similar your situations have been!!
