Hey everyone! Jen - Here is what I am doing for Mother's Day. I made a little 6"x6" scrapbook that goes like one of the baby counting books. My mom's is something like: One little girl growing as fast as she can. <Picture of me as a kid> Two people building a life together. <Picture of me and...

Thanks for starting us off Jen! I just am getting my energy back so I went overboard this weekend. 3 mi run BM2 - upper body only Stretch Max 8 loads of laundry washed all the windows in my house and am cleaning out the nursery so that we can also scrape popcorn off the ceiling and paint. I...

What beautiful pictures of your boys. Congratulations, I am looking forward to hearing all about Liam when things settle down a little at your house. I am so glad that you and Liam are doing well.

Yay! Congratulations Laura!

well. i guess that is one way to get your heartrate up. :p no reason to think he should disturb your workouts, though, so just keep up the good work.

My sister-in-law swears by the stuff and besides gas, also used it to help with hiccups. It seemed to help get rid of them for my niece.

Congratulations on your baby. How old is your first? I am just ahead of you (due in November). I was exercising pretty well at six weeks, at around seven I got too tired. Now, I am starting to get back into my workouts. I have dropped my weights significantly. I figure my sets should feel like...

Some fun ones I have played... Baby Gift bingo. A Nursery Rhyme quiz (Mamma got a book with all the nursery rhymes after we were done) Lay out an array of small baby items (comb, brush, diaper pin, lotion). Let everyone look for 3 - 5 minutes, then cover it up and let everyone remember what was...

I am pregnant with my first too! I have been taking careful notes for the past couple of years from other mommas, though. Here are some smaller things that you may not have thought of... Lap pads - can be used as a changing pad, but mostly keeps leaky diapers from needing a complete crib...

I am here! Still pregnant, and looking forward to my first checkup next week. I am eating everything in sight (no morning sickness!) and have not gained any weight :p My exhaustion tells me that my body is doing hard work, though. Jess and Laura - you guys are so close, I hope the time is...

That is such a cute top! I cannot be much help without seeing more of the pattern, but have you tried searching for errata for the book? Often you can find a page of pattern mistakes and what they should say. HTH,

I always like something with jello for the big holiday dinners, and a seven layer salad is usually a big hit. Other ideas, I have a really good (tasting, not for you) Chinese cabbage salad recipe too. I have no idea if we are having anything at my moms. I guess I should ask. :D

Quick warning about Song of Ice and Fire: There were SUPPOSED to be 7 books in the series, but the 4th one got too long so it has been split into two pieces. The second half of book 4 is SUPPOSED to come out in September. It has taken SIX YEARS to get both halves of book 4. Martin keeps...

Jen - Congrats on the baby, we are right together, but I do not have my first appointment for two more weeks. :( This is my first too. Jess - Thanks for the encouragement. I am not too worried about what is to come, just doing my best with where I am now and taking notes on what needs to...

I am seven weeks! I feel like everyone else is so close, and am not looking forward to all of the aches and discomforts you guys are describing of being big. :p I am looking forward to meeting this little person though. I have been really tired, but no morning sickness so far. I am doing STS 3...

I agree with everyone else. Your in-laws do not have a say in whether or not you and your husband have children. I think being pressured into having children that you do not want / are not ready for would make you a worse person than stating what is right for you and your husband. Another...

I am in the middle of STS and am just dropping my weights down to "maintenance" level. I figure if I have to push for the last three reps, I am too heavy for that exercise. STS has not been hard to modify, and I am still getting a good workout, just making sure I do not get strength gains. I...

Hello ladies! This week I played ultimate frisbee with a bunch of teenagers Sunday afternoon, now I have had a sinus headache for two days :confused: Ordered STS Cardio, Monday and that was all the excitement I could stand. I am more excited right now about 20% off than the workouts since I...

If you cannot extend the discount code, what about allowing us to "order" back-ordered items. I could go ahead and buy the weighted gloves, and then wait for them to be shipped until they are in stock again. Thanks,

I do not have any real advice about the birds and the bees, but please be sure that he also has the basic Good Touch / Bad Touch information. This is covered in many schools now, but he needs to know that if some adult says "no one will believe you" that is a lie.
