Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii fraaannnnddsss!

[zpanjwani]

Hi laides! Sorry I've been so MIA for the past few months. I've been really busy and haven't had any spare time to check in. So since then and now I've received a promotion that comes with a ton of extra responsibilities and often times working 10ish hours a day, we've sold our home, purchased a contract on a new home that won't get built until the end of June so we're living with my parents until then (kind of a nightmare), and I'm having a girl (!!!) and seriously look like I'm 80 months pregnant. So that's my life, what's going on with y'all? Fill me innnnnn. Your turn!

[roo1582]

Congrats on your little girl and also your new home! You have definitely been busy but I'm glad to hear things have been going well

[somethingcleverer]

So nice to hear from you, congrats on your girl! She is a little fashoinista in the making

[zpanjwani]

Thanks y'all. What has been up with all of you lately? I feel so out of the loop

[summergirl1211]

Congratulations and haaaaiiiii! So glad you had a second to stop in and say hi. I cannot wait to see this little girl when she's born and all of her adorable outfits. I hope your stay with your parents goes well and everything goes smoothly with your house. You've definitely been busy!

You'll have to let me know how the house building goes. My H and I are thinking of building next spring. I'm excited but terrified at the same time.

Congrats on your baby girl! Glad all is well.

[traceyt07]

Congrats on all your good news! Your dd's going to have some really great body guards! So glad you got to stop by and check in. Hope to see you around more often.

Congrats on the girl!

We are also selling our house. It should close by the end of this week I think and we are are living with a neighbor until we can buy a new house. My H just started back at work, so hopefully in 2 months we can start looking. I am also preg, 8 weeks tomorrow.

I think we just had a thread where everyone kind of gave an update on things. I'll look for it and tag you in it.

[cookiesandwine]

I'm sorry, who are you again??

[pinkluna]

Glad to see you around! Congrats on a girl and good luck with the house!

[bliz1712]

Congrats on the girl!! When are you due again, I forget? Hope you come around more often.

[zpanjwani]

EDD is 8/17, but I will be getting another c section so a few days before. Time is flying and needs to slow down for a second.

[aimeefarrahfowler]

Heeeeeeeey!

Hey girl!

So good to see you swing by and update us... sounds like it's been hectic, but in a really awesome way! A girl, a new house, a new job... how exciting!

Things for me/us have been cray - short version: we are living with my IL's since the move to MN in Dec. In Feb. we found out about a birth defect with baby #2, and I've had a ton of procedures and other crap, and I've now been on Hospital Bed rest with PPROM since April 12th... so 3 weeks 3 days so far.

Things overall are good though, baby and I are doing well... We bought a house, and closed last week, so H is doing all kinds of stuff at the house like cleaning, painting, removing wall paper, to get it ready for us to move in. Some things I'm ok not being there for, but it would be nice to go to the store with him to pick stuff out instead of me having to do it from a hospital room!

Definitely check out the thread MM started where everyone kind of updated on their lives - it's a good round up!

[zpanjwani]

trixi282 (did I tag correctly?) I've definitely been keeping you in my prayers. Do you know yet when you can finally be discharged from the hospital? I can't even imagine how rough this has been for you and your family. I'm happy that you can at least come home to a brand new home

[sarasansh]

Congrats on the promotion and the girl! We just found out last week we're also having a little girl.

[mommymadness]

Congrats on having a girl!! We are currently staying with the parents as we buy/sell, so I know all about the chaos!! Good luck with everything!

You did tag correctly!  Thank you for the prayers, they are appreciated!

Unfortunately I won't be discharged until after baby is born.... I'll be 34 weeks tomorrow which was my 1st goal when I was admitted, so that's good!  I had more tests today and after the MFM doc reviews stuff we'll talk about our next goal(s) or milestones, and when I might deliver; we'll schedule a csec.

I could be here another 2 weeks or more - but we'll see what the tests say... either way we'll have an early baby with a NICU stay.  And baby will need surgery eventually after birth.  We just don't know yet if that will be right away or a few months down the line.  There are quite a few 'wait and see' type things that will be determined after baby is born.

Hey!! Congrats on the girl! Any names picked out yet??

[zpanjwani]

I hope baby can hang in there as long as possible and fx for good results from today's testing. I can't wait for this entire ordeal to be over for you (surgeries and all) so you can settle in with J and the new baby without worry. I'm rooting for you, girl!

[zpanjwani]

cbear it's been a battle with names. I want Jenna and Eric wants Arianna. Our compromise name is Jasmine so I think her name will likely be Jasmine Sophia

[aylafsu1881]

That is a lot of exciting news! Congrats on the girl. I know she will have two awesome big brothers!

[mightybee]

Wow, so many good updates! Congratulations! I can't wait to see pictures of #3--your kids are gorgeous!

[cbear]

Well it's a gorgeous name!

[lkamenko]

[MissMusic]
