GTKY!

[The_Priminator]

Tell us about you!!

I'll go first! Hey I'm Prim! SAHM to DD & DS.

I love cheesecake, coffee & Gilmore Girls!

Both my kids are speech delayed but their receptive language & understanding is stellar. They understand so much, but it's getting them to use words! Abby is stringing sentences & we are working on more fluency. Alex is still a screechy pterodactyl at almost 18 months but we are always reading/learning.

What about you?

[faupanda]

I'm panda, DD1 is 3, DD2 is 20 months, and DS is due April 3. Dd1 goes to preschool twice a week for 2.5 hours a day, she is also speech delayed but has taken off since joining preschool at the beginning of the year. She is still in speech therapy. DD2 will be getting her evaluation soon as she has less than 15 words.

I was a bookkeeper in my previous life, DH and I have been married for 5 years, together for 10. We have two dogs, rescues from a rescue group and animal control. I love coffee too, and most sweets, lol.

[namastebiotches]

I'm NB. I stay at home with my lovely 3.5yo son. He goes to preschool M-Th for 2hr 45min (ha!) He has a speech delay but like OP, very good receptive & basically understands everything. He has pronunciation issues & it's as if he doesn't want to get past the jargon/gibberish toddler stage even though he has a lot of decent words. It's hard to explain.
Been with the Mr for 12 years, married for 5. I'm a pretty terrible housewife.. he cooks 99% of the time & I eat too much.

[franklymydear]

Hi there! I never posted on the SAHM board on the bump but decided to jump in! I am currently staying home until I decide I would rather not!

I have a 6 month old baby girl, love anything to do with the water (kayaking, paddleboarding, sailing and fishing), and love to read. I'm am a terrible knitter and painter but I enjoy calligraphy and cooking! My husband is a certified sommelier so any wine questions I can help!

Can't wait to participate more in the boards, although I definitely find it hard to find time to post... Baby girl doesn't love napping right now but I can't really complain because she sleeps about 11 hours straight at night!

[nolemomma14]

Hello! DS is 6 months. He's currently a rolling machine and gets mad because he can't crawl. I work from home a few hours each day and have to go into the office Tuesday mornings but other than that I'm home with DS. Still trying to balance out housework, time with DS, and time for myself and DH, but it gets a bit easier everyday!!

DH and I have been together 4 years in February and our 2nd wedding anniversary is in April. I love to cook, watch cheesy movies, and love all things FSU!!

[crunchEishwife]

I am Starlite which is obvious, umm SAHM to DD 9 and DS 15 months.

I love coffee,gossip,outdoorsy stuff and day drinking.

[barnabee]

I'm bee, my little cutie is four months old and so I'm new to the sahm thing. I love smoothies, coffee, and running. I love being home with my girl and want a few more little rascals but I'm also finding myself bored at times and wishing she would join in on my constant one sided conversations.

[things]

Hi! I'm Aeona. I became a SAHW shortly after my ex and I married. Before that I was a document clerk for the county. I'm looking into re-entering the workforce when my youngest is in preschool, so around 3-4 years old. I'm not sure what I'll do since that all depends on what route I will go with grad school. Three girls, two boys -- ages 10, 8, would be 6, 5, and 7 weeks.

[samsi]

I'm Sam. I have one son, 6 months, named Zachariah. I became a SAHM because daycare is too freaking expensive while trying to buy a house. I'm currently finishing (or trying to) college. I met DH in 2012, married in 2014, baby in 2014. Zach is a reflux/mspi baby and recently started passing food trials. I enjoy ice cream, coffee, cooking, and naps.

[mrsmuq]

I'm MrsMuq/BubblesMartin over on TB.

I mostly (previously) posted on SAHM until the Great SAHM Exodus of October 2014. We live on a GBCN proboards site now.

Figured I'd straddle both boards as I like both groups of ladies.

I'm a SAHM to a 2.5yo DS. I like Starbucks, books, and long walks on the beach.

[babygsmommy]

Hey ladies!! I'm a sahm to my 18 mo old ds. I was on TB and migrated over yesterday when all that stuff went down.

I love coffee, scrapbooking, reading and wine. Oh and chocolate too!!

[mamanorris]

Hi ladies! I have been a SAHM since I had my almost 3 year old son Jackson. We also have a 6 month old son
Lennon. I love being a SAHM mom mostly because I don't have to get dressed everyday. I love my coffee, crocheting, books and gossiping.

[BostonKisses]

I'm LadySansa, SAHM to my 4 year old. I do work occasionally as a substitute teacher for some extra fun money. I love reading, gaming, Star Wars, Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, The Killers, Bastille, Sherlock, and Downton Abbey.

I have my degree in music education, and am a certified teacher. I didn't have a permanent position before becoming a SAHM, but had a few LTS positions, and I kind of liked doing that because it helped me further discover which grade levels I really enjoyed teaching.

[jensriot]

Hi, I'm Jen, SAHM to two girls (6.5 and 4) and a boy (2 in March). I was an Accountant until DD2 was born, then decided to stay home. We're in the DFW area, been married for almost 8 years, together for 16+.

I was diagnosed with GAD last year and started medication in October. It was the best decision I've made for me and my family.

Random stuff - my oldest does Taekwondo and is awesome at it. I had a corneal transplant in 2009 and corneal collagen crosslinking last year. Our family is complete and I'm busy and exhausted.

Oh and I love wine, all the wine.

[kate]

Hi, my name is Kate, from Austin TX. LO is 6 weeks old. I'm madly in love with her and am thankful that I get to stay home with he. 

I was a lurker on D14.  Time to come out of the shadows.  Nice to meet you!

[acarpediem]

Hey everyone! I'm a SAHM to a 4.5 month old little boy. My DH and I just celebrated our one year anniversary but 3 years together. We currently live in Paris, France so you might see me commenting at weird hours. I previously worked in retail but was lucky enough to quit when LO was born.

I love watching movies and tv shows, especially all of the reality ones. Me and wine are best friends but are on a short break until done breastfeeding.

@ladysansa - how do you like the new Star Was trailer? Do you play PC or console. I prefer PC, and love playing MMOs and RPGs. Game of Thrones and Sherlock are some of my favorite shows. Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead, and Sherlock are pretty fucking awesome, too. DH and I also watch Arrow, The Flash and Helix Basically anything action/superhero, fantasy, sci-fi, dystopian, and post-apocalyptic.

[sagen]

I am Sagen. I am also been binge watching Gilmore Girls during naps! I watch and fold clothes, so I have never been more in top of laundry. I do a lot of laundry with a family of 6. My husband is a doctor, I am a SAHM for ten years now, and we have been married 12 years, and have 4 kids. We have a daughter who is 10, and 3 sons ages 8,6, and almost 2.

[butnotthearmadillo]

I am Armadillo,

my son is 19 month old, live in CT, and stay at home. My husband and me are from (different countries) Europe and met in a Ph.D. program in the US. I currently do not have a work permit, but we are waiting for our green cards, which may take a few more years. Our son is a little American though!

The past year and a half was pretty tough, my child is not a big sleeper and seems to be either teething, sleep regressing or developing a new skill. We are still sleep deprived, up multiple times a night and can't imagine how parents of 2u2 do it. We just made it through the awful 18 month sleep regression so I hope I can keep up posting if LOs naps continue to be longer than 45 min a day.

I am a pretty nerdy/geeky person, and like to read, cook and sew. I watched the entire Justice League cartoon during the first weeks of breastfeeding on Netflix, and am a fan of a lot of other animated shows (The Last Airbender, Noragami, etc.) as well as STTNG and DS9.

[noodles84]

I am Shannon! Stay at home mom to a 5 year old and a 5 month old. I didn't stay at home until the second was born. Still getting used to it. Probably should put more effort into putting myself together during the week. My daughter is in half day kindergarten in the afternoon. Actually looking forward to her being home in the summer so we will have more time to get out and do things. Trying to get through the winter here in Pennsylvania and daydreaming about the park and swimming pool.

[hurricanenellie]

Hi! I'm Janelle, I have one DD, 4 months old. Was laid off the week I gave birth from a large oilfield company so this is pretty new to me. Trying not to go stir crazy but also not feeling super productive aside from nursing and keeping our baby girl happy.

[HCB89]

I'm Hilary and I'm new! I am a SAHM to two girls, ages 4 and 3. I homeschool and I was a SAHW prior to becoming a parent so I am pretty useless outside the home My husband is in the Coast Guard and we currently live in AL. I am a totally exciting person that enjoys working out at home, playing video games, and looking at Pinterest. Excited to get to know everyone!

[thedish]

Hi! Dish here. I am a soon to be SAHM. Looking forward to "officially" joining you ladies whenever my little girl decides to make her appearance!

[MadisonPenny]

Hi! I'm MP

I'm a SAHM to my 11 Month old DD and just found out that Im pregnant again.
I have 2 (crazy) dogs who keep us on our toes.
I love Criminal Minds, reading and dancing around the house. DD seems to have inherited that from me. She's always moving to music.
I love to travel but won't be doing that for awhile.

I never posted over on SAHM at TB but hope it's okay if I join you ladies over here.

[abcmommy]

Hi everyone! I'm Melissa.

I started lurking on the SAHM board on TB after I found out I was pregnant with DD in March 2013. I hope you don't mind that I join in now.

DH and I have been together for 5 years now and will celebrate our second wedding anniversary this June. I just graduated with my BA last December and currently SAH with our two children. Anna will be 15 mo next week and Benjamin just turned 2 mo. DH is currently working on his PhD.

Having 2u2 is crazy so I don't really have any time for hobbies, but I hope to keep somewhat active on here.

Both my kids are speech delayed but their receptive language & understanding is stellar. They understand so much, but it's getting them to use words!

Hi Prim I remember you from ttgp before you had your son.

My in info is in my siggy.
My ds is a crazy strong willed little dude and I am struggling so hard to get him to learn things in prep for school in the fall. Would LOVE and tips y'all got!
My dh has been able to sneak teach him things while playing videos games but I mean he reallys needs to learn to sit down and by taught.

[Katra]

Hi I'm Katra, fairly new to posting but hoping to change that. I have a boy (4) and a girl (2), I've stayed home since my son was born.

[vlagroupie]

Hey yo, I never posted on SAHM at TB but thought I'd try and join in here. DD is 9 months, I work 2 days/week right now but wish I could stay home all the time. Can't wait till the weather breaks and we can start getting outside and enjoying the weather instead of being cooped up in this house.

[awful]

Hey all! I've been SAH since DH went active duty for the Air Force at the end of 2012. He's a pilot and flies fast planes. I had DS Sept 2013 and am due with DD in May.

I love cooking, crocheting, and sewing. My favorite food is strawberries and when I'm not KU, you can find me with a wine glass in hand.

I do teach dance occasionally at night which is a ton of fun and it's nice to be able to leave the house kid-free.

[tiamiaxx]

Hey all
I'm Tia, SAHM to DS who is just on 2 and expecting our 2nd in July.

Pp mentioned cheesecake and now I need some desperately.
I'd love to go back to studying sometime but we shall see.

Was in July 15 on TB and thought I'd join here too.
Looking forward to getting to know you all
