I've just watched about 5 episodes of Jon and Kate + 8 and Kate is a total whack job. She wouldn't let the kids eat ice cream at Disney World because it was messy and the kids would get a little sticky??? They are kids!!! Sure, I understand how tough it must be to raise 8 kids, but if you couldn't handle a little mess, then why have 8 kids????

Happy New Year Everyone! I love you girls

That show is nuts! I saw the one earlier today when they were attempted to potty train. I can't even imagine the noise level in that house. Kate is more than a little OCD but I can't criticize

Happy New Years Everyone!! We'll post more pics soon. I just made dh take some of Cooper and Aiden cuddling on the sofa.

Six days in the hospital. I almost forgot how cozy my bed was... not that I'll be spending a lot of time in it!

I can't wait for all the great news around here in 2008!

Well DH never got called in. He just got called a million times during the night. His car accident guy was actually 78 y/o and died in the ER. Then another brain tumor came in and then a guy jumped off a bridge at midnight. We don't know about te bridge jumper b/c DH never got called again about him, just that he was on his way in. Most likely he did not make it or he is completely fine(which I doubt).

I was in bed by 10pm and DH went in the other room to finish watching the movie we started. Then he just stayed in there b/c his pager kept waking me up.

I just woke up feeling completely fine. no m/s, no hunger, no sore boobs. I am beginning to really panick and have anxiety attacks. I can't wait for tomorrow but in another sense I am not looking forward to it.

How was everyone's night?
Amy- feeling any better?

Susan - when i was prego with my twins, after wk 8 - i had no symptoms at all.....but i never had m/s. My RE said as long as i was on progesterone, the m/s would probably never come, as m/s is normally caused by an imbalance of hormones. not one single day of m/s did i get

dont worry about symptoms disappearing, as they will.....be replaced with movement, slight twinges in the tummy, I cant wait for you to feel them move upward - it is amazing - like a light swish from side to side or top to bottom.

I am so excited for you!

Happy New Year Everyone!!
I have been SO busy with in-laws and party prep, and my internet has been funky with the bad weather. I have missed everyone. I have some catching up to do!

Susan, I cannot wait to hear about your U/S tomorrow!

But I will have to do it later, I hear my houseguest stirring............

Good Morning Ladies! Happy New Year to Everyone!

We had a nice evening last night. Very simple and fun with our two best friends. Dinner was good and we played Taboo and rang in the New Year in the hot tub.

My chest is very congested and this cough really hurts. Just achy all over. But...I have to say I'm thankful that it's not a head cold. I hate the stuffy/runny/red nose more than anything. I'll take the chest cold instead.

Amy & Jen - Hope you're both starting to feel better!!

Welcome back Rachael! Glad to hear you're at home. You'll have to give us a peek at what your daily/nightly schedule looks like. I hope everyone is settling in and I'm so glad to hear that Aiden and Cooper are already cuddling!

Susan - Can't wait for your news tomorrow! I'll be checking in all day from work but it sounds like you have an early east coast appointment so that's good!

Christine - Congrats on your beta yesterday! Looks like this was a natrual cycle? So glad for you!!

Okay, I'm addicted to the Jon & Kate show too. I cannot get over how much noise is in that household. And I can't imagine being so outnumbered!! I keep wondering how they keep their eyes on everyone and make sure they're safe - especially when they're outside. Then I remember that they have a full film crew following them around 75% of their day and I realize they aren't outnumbered at all. Kate is a basket case and Jon is a punching bag. DH won't watch it for a second. Drives him crazy. And it doesn't involve a football or golf clubs so it's clearly not worth his TV time!

Happy New Year!!

2008 is here and I don't know how to feel about that. LOL.

Susan- Good luck tomorrow!! We're there with you in spirit, I promise!

Ronni- Sounds like fun! Unfortunately for us, it was WAY too cold to be in our hot tub! LOL.

Christine- I'm still so thrilled for you!

I'm still achy and snotty. Losing my voice. And it is in my chest too. We just took down our Christmas tree...DH is trying desperately to get 3 boxes of oraments into 2 boxes...kinda funny

I got DH to watch Blades of Glory last night. I saw it on the plane to Boston-it was hilarious! We laughed so much! Then we watched D ick Clark and the ball...that man is what, 600 years old?

Anyway, 2008 is gonna be a great year for all of us.

Speaking of zits, I've got a doozy on my chin. It is horrible and it's the kind that makes your eyes water when touched, ouchie!

HAPPY NEW YEAR Ladies .... we have so much to look forward too, this year is going to be great for us all.

Amy and Jen I'm hoping you are feeling better, sounds like it.

Last night we didn't do to much. We went to our friends house and played some card games i.e. uno and phase ten. Then at midnight we watched the space needle fireworks. It is funny being on the sober side of things, some people are just ridiculous with some alcohol in them, Derrick being one of them. LOL By 1200 I was beat, so ready for bed but Derrick wanted to stop in and say hey to our friends on the way home so we stopped for about an hour. We ended up playing Rock Band and again I was laughing at the drunks. Finally I got home and had to scrub the estrogen patch sticky stuff off of my gut so I could reapply more patches. So by the time I went to bed it was almost 200 - Yikes. Needless to say I just got out of the shower ready to start my day, it's 1200.


Okay so lets talk PIO. My arse is so welted that I'm not sure what to do? Last night the PIO hurt so bad it was the first time really it hurt. Not sure why, maybe it could have been the spot or maybe it was because it was on a bruise? Hmmm ... but I need help. It hurts and I'm not sure what else to do about it. I sat on the low heating pad for about 30 mins and still the welt is there. Any ideas on what I should do? **Amy and those who haven't done PIO yet. Please do not let my post freak you out, it really isn't bad at all. It was just that one injection. So please don't let me get you thinking it is horrible, when your time comes it will be great.**

Christine and Susan we will be thinking about you for sure, tomorrow will be great.

Alana miss you!

Hope everyone has a great New Years Day!
