Hello!!!

Thanks so much for tagging me!! I'm so sorry I haven't been around - it's been crazy busy!! And (for those who can see my siggy, you already know), but I'm KU, ladies!! Hopefully third time is a charm for us. 21w4d today!!!

How everyone doing?!

[kaeguri]

agpjt413, congrats!!!! How's it going so far?

Sorry I've been MIA! Busy chasing after my LO, she figured out how to stand, walk along furniture, and crawl so I spend my days making sure she doesn't severely injure herself. She just turned 8 months. Haaalllp. H has two interviews this month, one in Illinois and one in Phoenix. Hoping for the Phoenix job, looks like a pretty city to live. Plus, no snow.

[agpjt413]

Thanks so much kaeguri!! So far, so good!! I can't believe how quickly it's going by!

Speaking of time passing quickly, I can't believe your LO is already 8 months!!!! GL to YH for the job prospects!! I'll push for Phoenix for you guys too!

[lecky11]

Hi bonzo2012! I hope all is going well with you.

I need to get better about checking in, but life is going to be a little hectic soon. I'm 38 weeks pregnant tomorrow and G is turning 2 next month. Aahh!

Congrats agpjt413!

kaeguri I can't believe she's 8 months already! Also keeping my fingers crossed for the Phoenix job for your DH.

[agpjt413]

Thanks so much lecky11!! Holy smokes - 38 weeks already!!!! So close mama!! And happy early birthday to G!! Love that your littles will be having birthdays so close!!

[kaeguri]

lecky11, FX for a smooth delivery!

I can't believe she's 8 months either. I swear, the 8 months I knew I was pregnant took 6 years to go by. The first 8 months of her life feels like 6 weeks. It's insane.

[bonzo2012]

Congrats agpjt413!

Wow, 8 months kaeguri, sounds like you have your hands full with a busy baby!

And lecky11, I can't believe you're so close! Keep us updated as you get close to delivery!

I've been busy with work lately, and we got chicks (see my AW thread for pics). We're getting so close to being ready to start TTC, which is both exciting and suddenly a little scary.

Me too! And the bonus is we were Team Green turned pink last time and are having another girl so don't have to buy anything

[lecky11]

How exciting bonzo2012. Hoping TTC is quick and easy for you guys!

[pittpurple]

Hi everyone!

And double hi to you agpjt413, guess we will just follow each other around :-)

I'm pregnant as well, 28 weeks and all looking good so far. My midwife guessed boy at my a/s but didn't sound entirely convinced so I'm not buying anything yet. Pulled my daughter's clothes out and there's pretty much nothing unisex, I like pink and sparkles too much apparently. So perhaps some fun shopping in my future.

All else going well. Really enjoying having Passover and Easter split up for once, I find those holidays hard to combine.

[pittpurple]

Good luck with the delivery lecky11, and good luck ttc bonzo2012!

[bonzo2012]

pittpurple, I'm glad Passover and Easter are split this year too! Although this year DH's family ended up not really doing anything for Easter so even if we had been in the same state it wouldn't have been as much of a hassle as in other years.

On the other hand, the mixed holiday has brought some sweet interfaith moments from DH's cousins. My favorite was one year one of his cousins was giving the blessing before Easter dinner, and as he got to the end he said "and thank you G-d for bringing us all together to celebrate spring as a family, and...." And trailed off while looking at me pointedly, so I chimed in "we were slaves in Egypt and now we are free". He repeated that with a smile on his face before ending.

This interfaith path isn't always easy, but it's worth it!

lecky11, fx!

@apgjt413, congrats!!!

kaeguri , good luck! I love Phoenix, my friends live there. It's lovely. 8 months sure does fly by! I didn't realize our LOs were so close, mine will be 11 months next week.

bonzo2012 eeee! How are your chicks?! Maybe they will bring good fortune in TTC.

[bonzo2012]

missjenniebean, the chicks are good! I'm training them to eat out of my hand, and today they all did! And I'm able to hold them all for longer periods of time without them freaking out too. They eat a ton, which translates into pooping a ton, so I'm cleaning up a couple times a day now instead of just once a day like at the beginning. But their poop is still so tiny that it's not a big deal. It's so fun watching them grow and become curious and friendly and just full of personality!

Thanks for tagging me, bonzo2012 ! I kept meaning to check in and then two weeks went by and ... whatever, I'm here, finally PS. You and I can be TTC buddies - hubby and I started trying for #2 this month

Congrats on your pregnancy, agpjt413 ! So excited for you! Fingers crossed that the rest of it goes smoothly and easily.

kaeguri , add me to the list of people who can't believe your LO is already 8 months. LIKE, HOW?? Although, I guess I can't really talk. I'm in the same boat. I'm looking back at pics of C from a year ago and she's so fat and smiley and I just can't even believe that she's 20 months already.

lecky11 It's been about two weeks since you said you were 38 weeks, so ... has baby made her appearance yet?? Hope the birth went / goes smoothly for you!!

And hi, pittpurple and missjenniebean!!

[bonzo2012]

toratoratori, good luck TTC #2!

[lecky11]

I had a baby!! Ade.line was born last Tuesday. I need to sit down and write out the birth story, but everything went well and we're adjusting to life with 2u2. I'll post a pic soon too

Thanks for thinking of me toratoratori and good luck TTC!
