Hello everyone! Jess, your self pics are great! The pose with the arm over the head made me giggle. It would be tough to position yourself and not end up blocking your belly (or have a pic of the ceiling or wall.) = ) I've been feeling achy too and short of breath the last couple of...

Happy Birthday, Jen!!!! Have you gotten a gift from your DH yet? If so, what did you get? Just think, on your next bday you'll start getting gifts from your DD. I love homemade cards, pictures, etc. With my DS, I've discovered my hidden love for crafts. If he were only as enthusiastic...

I'll have to check out Target soon. Am trying to lure my couch potato son out of the house today. Okay, so he's not really a couch potato, but he's gotten used to having Noggin on (which he does jump and dance too on the positive side). It was so cold & windy for a while there really wasn't...

I was wondering about feet growing/spreading while pregnant too. My supercomfy shoes suddenly started feeling like they had a bump under my arches. Not very comfy anymore. They also are starting to feel tight on the sides of my feet. I try to loosen the laces, but then they feel too loose...

Happy New Year!!! Hope everyone had a wonderful, safe New Year's Eve. We stayed home and ate fat food. = ) DS (age 4) wanted to stay up until midnight and made it until about 9:30 when he passed out snuggled up against my shoulder. DH & I were up until probably 12:05. I'm very proud of...

Laura, I agree with everyone else. I'd be mad too. At my ob/gyn office, when my dr gets called out on a delivery/surgery they call each of us up there to reschedule so they're not wasting our time. Skyy, I've been thinking about how I'm going to approach working out after the baby is born...

Hi MDBecky! I'm Tana and I'm 30 wks pregnant today with my 2nd child. I have a son who's 4 and am expecting a girl. She's been named Emily by my son. "Emily" received Christmas gifts from my in-laws and my FIL has been telling his cronies that's the name of his soon-to-be granddaughter. LOL...

Okay, I finally attached a couple of pregnant pics. Neither one is spectacular, but you get the idea. There are so few pics of me (at least wearing matching clothes, combed hair, etc.) LOL Tana (hoping I did this attachment thing correctly.)

Hi Jess! Looks like we posted about the same time. I was thinking the same thing about the spices and my son. Then again, he's at that age where anything that looks different than a hotdog or chicken nugget is "disgusting". LOL Tana

Wow! It's Tuesday already!! Tomorrow's the last day of the year...yippee!! Our babies are right around the corner! DS and I have had colds. He was up all night Friday with a cough. I slept on his floor and woke up with a cough myself. His cold is much better, but mine keeps getting...

Hello! Sounds like everyone had a nice Christmas week. It was so much fun watching DS open presents. It takes him a while to realize it's Christmas morning which is funny. He woke up that morning and was concerned about a stuffed bear that had a string come undone. Slowly it dawned on him...

Hello all! Guess what? I passed my 3 hour glucose test!!! Yippee!!! I would totally do big fat preggo cartwheels if I knew how (never could do them..sigh). Anyways, I was shocked and elated when the dr told me 'congratulations'. Woohoo! As for Christmas plans...tonight one of my best...

Jen, the bedding and accessories are adorable! I think yellow &/or pink would look great on the walls with that. It would also carry over to toddlerhood and match whatever she/you pick out for the next bed/bedding. But, this is coming from a gal who has white walls in every room of her house...

Wow! That sounds scary, Jess! I hadn't heard of that. Will they check your platelet level at every appt from now on? Did the doctor ever mention that they might need to check your boys for something similar? Thank goodness you don't have slow and drawn out labor. I've heard about women...

I've gotten a lot better with having my blood drawn. Doesn't seem to bother me as much as it used to. They had to draw blood 4 times during the 3 hour glucose test. The worst part was sitting in the uncomfortable waiting room chair for 3 1/2 hours. Luckily I took the afghan I'm crocheting...

Jess, I'm sending you some healthy vibes down your way. It's bad enough being sick, but sick with company has got to be miserable. Jen, I'd think several pounds have got to be water weight. With your feet swollen off and on for a while now. My boss's pregnant wife (due late Feb) gained 9...

Yuck on the fire ants biting your kids, Jess. We had lots of ant this year in our yard, but they were the regular brownish red kind. Just annoying especially since they'd have their hills next to our porch & sidewalk. They'd catch DS's attention. Yummmmm...sugar cookies! I love baking and...

Thanks Jen & Jess! The diabetes did go away after I gave birth. It's just depressing having it happen this time of year. (I know I still have a chance at passing the 3 hr...keeping my fingers crossed). DH made peanut butter cookies Sunday and a boy scout delivered a canister of lite carmel...

Hello to all! I found out yesterday that I failed my glucose test. I'm scheduled Friday for the 3-hour test. Ugh..I know in the grand scheme of things it's not terrible. I had it with my DS, but ugh it STINKS! I don't know why it's really bumming me out this time. I'm mad and sad, yet...

Oh yum! The pistachio cream cookie sounds DELICIOUS!! I never knew such a cookie existed. Yummy Yummy Yummy Tana
