re: JMM Reunion

Lani I am glad that your feeling better   I miss Harlee being in my belly too. Exp since there will be no more babies for us. Its hard to say that and I think that is why I miss her in my belly lots. But having her here and seeing her simle and laugh and the things that Daddy, Aeris and Konner do is the best! She is so loved by Aeris and Konner. I was so worried that Konner was going to have a hard time adjusting to not being the baby but he just lights up when he holds her or trys to play with her.  

AF was supposed to be due in the next couple days so my positive tests were really early.... But started bleeding today   Bright red, few clots. Very "period" bleeding.... So I guess chemical pregnancy?     ugh! So frustrated

I'm sorry honey   I know that pain all too well. Don't let it discourage you though, get back on that horse & try & try again. Wish I could give you a big, gigantic hug xoxo

Sorry I haven't been around much, I've been sick for weeks - slowly getting better   but as a result of me getting sick, the house work didn't get done so I'm still catching up on it. Simon also picked up my stomach bug & we all know what men are like when they're sick lol.

Well I have to take Milla to the vet in an hour & I'm still not anywhere near ready so I best go get myself together.

Will talk to you all soon, I've been reading along but I couldn't read & not reply to your post Vis xo

Hey all.... I've been reading along! So sorry haven't been responding been pretty busy lately... and for some reason starting to feel sick again..   Valisa- sorry to hear that!!   Hopefully it'll happen soon!! <3 P.S. Those cookies you posted on FB totally made me crave!!! arrrghh! Lani- Glad you are feeling better girl! Love that youtube video you did... Jessie- I hope things get better quick mama.. I know I'll probably have a hard time adjusting to a new born again but it's so exciting! Helen- Girl...... I'm hanging in there.... I haven't changed my due date counter on BG so it's telling me I'm 27 weeks.... but if I did I'd actually be 29 weeks too!! I have a doctors appointment next Monday so they will tell me if I'm going to stay due in November... I sure hope it stays cuz I'm ready for him to come out... hahaha... Kristy- did you cut your hair?? I just noticed!! I love it!!!   Jojo- Hope you feel better too mama.... all you mamas that had girls made such cute babies!!

Amanda how are things with you?? haven't heard from you in forever!!!

Sooooooooo..... I'm not working now.... It feels good to sleep in again! omg!! I can't wait for this baby to be here!! I keep feeling the tiredness and everything creeping back up on me! So it's a good thing I stopped working again... hmmm, I may be going to do an internship with Human Resources because I'm almost done with my Bachelors! (whoop whoop!) I can't wait to be done with school! it's so hectic and with all the papers I have to write... annoying! lol... But yup! I'm just ready for little Jesse to come out already! My cousins threw me ang my other cousin a surprise baby shower and it was sooooo nice! They really hid the fact that they were throwing one!!! lol.... anyhow!!! I just thought I'd chime in here before I login to do school work! Glad to hear everyone is doing great!!! ttyl!

Hey gorgeous gals! I've been reading along on my phone.  

Valisa, I'm so sorry you keep going through this. Sounds like a chemical pregnancy. Maybe wait to test until you're officially late from now on just to keep your heart from hurting. Love ya girl!

I'm doing good. Life as a Mommy to two is definitely not a boring one! I'm always feeding someone, wiping someone's little butt, reading, coloring or playing. Never a dull moment! I'm so happy my mom is here to help because if we didn't live together then I dunno how I'd ever get any cleaning done! I'm almost 5 1/2 weeks post partum! Starting Monday I'm back to Vegan, starting c25k and the 30 day shred. After I do the 30 day shred I plan to do p90x if I can find time for it. If not, I'll have to find another 30 minute workout series to do. and at night I'll be back to Yoga.  

Madelyn is growing like a weed! She's already 5 weeks old, 9lbs 13oz and 21in long! She's starting to smile a bit, and when she sees me she starts kicking her legs out and waving her arms and cooing. I love this stage! It ALMOST makes me want 10 more babies. LOL. She's an easier baby than Nicholas. Nicholas was more needy, and wanted to nurse all day long. Madelyn is content with lying on her boppy after a feed and just staring out the window, or at whatever book Nicholas and I are reading. She sleeps for good stretches during the day, 2-3 hour naps. And at night she's only up twice SOMETIMES three times. I definitely have no complaints.

Nicholas is adjusting amazing to having to share attention with Madelyn. He loves her. He constantly wants to hold her, and pick out her outfits, is always bringing her a blanket, or toy. He reads to her a lot. If I change a diaper he's right there handing me everything we need, and he HAS to brush her hair after each diaper change. I love watching him with her. I can't wait to see them run and play together in the future.

John had a 5 month temporary postion working for the United Way, but that ended August 31st. We were very worried he wouldn't find any work, but luckily he was only out of work for three days. The temp agency found him a good job working at the old Army Depot. He's making metal on the same machine they use to make Grenades. It's a temp to hire job, but they arent looking to hire for 9 or so months after he starts, because a lot of people can't handle the job. So he's still looking for something permanent, but for now, this job seems pretty steady. He works 5am-1:30pm m-f and it pays $10/hr. Permanent employees start at $12/hr and then work their way up to $16/hr. It also has benefits once permanent, and it has a Union! Hoping they see that he has great work ethic and hire him!

Here are a few pics that I'm sure most of you on FB saw, but just in case you didn't, enjoy them here.  

Love ya all, I will be lurking!

Lani, Jess and jojo how r u all?

So YAY for passing my GD test, I was really nervous cause I gain too much weight this time and too fast but I'm on the clear...tks God. Baby is measuring big too, like 2 weeks and half or something so my doc is predicting her to be bigger than Ada but will have to wait and c. Nothing else going on, trying to get ready for her shopping and all that fun stuff.

I'm trying to do my workout regimen for when I give birth and I kinda wanted to do Shakeology again.... buuuuuut..... yeah idk... Kristy? What you doing? I can't wait to put my body bugg back on!!!

Valisa- bahaha.. I wish! When I'm not sleeping I'm trying to do school work.. I haven't even took out my camera too much lately.. How are you doing with school these days? Still with WGU? I switched schools and I have a paper or two due every week so its kicking my butt! I'm almost there though! whew!! What are you getting your degree in again? Anyway, hope all is going great girl!! oh yeah! What are those workbooks you use for Brooke? I bought some from Toys R Us but I'd like to have others.. Jayley's so into drawing/tracing these days...

Helen- I feel you girl.. I'm ready to give birth! ick! How much weight have you gained already? I've gained 30 pounds... I'm hoping it all comes off quick... Since I lost 30lbs within the first week of having Jayley.... I hope its the same! hahaha... but I feel you my back it killing me these days!

Hey ladies, how are we all doing?

Well before you hear it anywhere else...



We were not TTC we were actually TNTC but here we are again. Simon & I had decided we couldn't take the hurt of losing another pregnancy so we just decided no more but apparently God had other plans.

Please say a prayer for us that this little one sticks around for 9 months & beyond.

Congrats Jess and good luck darling, will be praying for you and keeping fingers crossed untill the "safe" zones
