January Jellybeans 2013!...
- Thread starter Betheney
- Start date
Betheney so glad to hear updates on Remi. It sounds like he is making wonderful progress and hopefully will be home soon. I'm so glad Eva is loving him. I know that has to be a special moment to see both your babies bonding.
I'm a SAHM. Sometimes I miss being in the working world and being with adults every day but I wouldn't trade this job for anything. I've felt very lucky to be able to be with DD every day and watch her grow up. I know that next year when she starts school it is going to break my heart. I don't know how I will get through it.
Every mom does it so it can't be too awful. 
I'm 35 weeks today.
Still a honeydew by my ticker but on the bump I'm a coconut! 
I can't believe our babies are almost here!!! On an exciting note, I painted my toenails this morning all by myself!
Good luck at the wedding Jrowen. I wouldn't be brave enough to be there for even an hour. hahahaha! Hopefully your feet won't suffer too bad.

Jaime- cant believe you're 36 weeks!! Try to enjoy the wedding... And don't be afraid to out your feet up. People will understand!! I was in my best friends wedding 2 months ago and was tired the whole weekend but everyone was so nice offering me a seat, etc.

Awesome to hear the update Betheney! We've missed seeing u on here!
Jrowe - good luck on the wedding.... Hopefully they will be ok with letting u rest as much as u can!
Can't believe we're all just about "full term" - getting SO close!
We have the bassinet in our bedroom and it still feels weird that a baby will be in it not too far from now! Kinda scary/ exciting....
Also on the note of what we do.... I work for a company that manufactures electric radiant heat (heated floors) and I've been here 5.5 yrs.... Technically I'm considered "Customer Care" but my job entails SO much more than that term - everything from order/quoting, electrical, installation, questions - pretty much everything that comes to the company goes through my team.

Let's see, let me give you my CV LOL!
For 5 years (while I was in college) I worked as the Executive Director's Assistant at the National Association of Realtors of Guatemala. I graduated in Communication with Specialization in Audiovisuals and Graphic Design. I also have a diploma in photography. So, after that I worked freelance for a while 'til I was hired by a school to be a High School Computer Teacher for a year, which I loved and was the perfect schedule while Chris and I worked on engagement and wedding.
Now I'm a soon to be Sahm with the desire to eventually go freelance again, but not 'til Matthew and I get the hang of each other hahaha.

- Jaime! WEDDING?! Praying for your feet and circulation! Hehe.
P.S. Ever since they changed my signature, there is a huge gap between my posts and my signature, which is very annoying. So, monitor that has been stalking me enough to change my signature twice: Please, change it back to normal without the gap. Thank you!

Nikki- I've been waddling for a while now, lol. And I love the nursery! So cute! And your tree looks fabulous!!!
Betheney- Glad to see you!!
And so glad to hear how well Remi is doing.. Also glad to hear how well Eva is adjusting to him. Can't wait to hear you're bringing him home!!!
As for my job.. I'm a SAHM, used to work fast food. So I don't really miss it that much. With all you girls having gone to college and such.. I feel kind dumb being a former fast food worker. 
Lillian- Thank you so much, hun!
Jaime- Good luck with the wedding! try to have a good time! And happy 36 weeks!
Ditty- Your kitties are so cute!! I had two cats growing up, but my parents were more dog people.. most of the time I am too. But I had a black and white kitty I named Sylvester. The other I only had for a short time.. Her name was Champagne, because of the color of her fur. I would love to have a pet of my own again.. we do have a dog, but it's hubby's dad's dog and I don't really like him all that much.. He's a good guard dog, but he's way to rambunctious when it comes to playing and I don't really trust him around my daughter.
Ginger- Glad to see you, hun. How are you doing? Hope things are starting to go better for you.
DeeDee- Glad hubby came to his senses and apologized. And why is that monitor stalking you so much? Doesn't seem fair.
Sassy- Happy 35 weeks!!!
AFM: I'll be 34 weeks tomorrow!!! Been feeling so tired, but have been sleeping fairly well at night. Poor Rayven hasn't been taking naps during the day for the past week or so and has been falling asleep at dinner. Sometimes she manages to eat some of her food before falling asleep. I just don't know what to do to get her to start taking naps during the day again, so she will be awake for dinner...

I had my cousin's wedding a few weeks back. I was pretty useless the next day. Have a nice time, Jaime!
For the most part, I am a SAHM. I work 1 hour a day as an admin. I used to work 4 hours a day, but they cut my hours when funding got cut and they couldn't afford to pay me anymore. They keep saying they are hoping for investors, and when that happens (*if* it happens, if you ask me), they said I could get my hours back, plus some. Not sure if I'd want to work more than part time with a new baby, though. The good thing, though, is that I get to work from home! So all I have to do is get the boys on the bus, then head into our office in my jammies, put in my hour, and I'm done for the day!
Had a Dr. appointment today. My Dr. is on vacation, so I saw the APRN. Same old thing - pee in a cup, weight and BP, belly measurement and baby's heartbeat. I will be going weekly now. I asked about the ultrasound I never got at 28 weeks (that I was told I was going to have but never did) and she said it's not a routine one, so I probably won't get anymore. Bummer... She said if I was measuring too big or too small, they might do one.
I asked if it matters what position baby is in, she said since I'm having a csection, it doesn't really matter, but it seems baby is head down (which I actually thought I felt in the shower yesterday).
She said she wants to see me to go at least 37 weeks. I'll be happy to go that far, but I don't want much more than that! I really do hope I go into labor before my csection date.

Jrow- not to freak you out, but one of my friends in gave birth in October at 37 weeks (3 weeks early!) soooo who knows you could too! crazy!
I just wanted to share this with you all bc i found this very terrible and disturbing..... someone i know of has a 5 month old baby and he has a ear infection and she went to Walgreens to get her Amoxicillin prescription and then lastnight she went to give him his medicine and noticed it wasnt the babies name on the bottle and the drug was actually an anti-depressant drug given to people with OCD. Good thing she noticed! Walgreens is in big trouble! Who knows what that could have done to a poor infant! If that happened to me, boy would Walgreens never wanna see my face again after the wrath id endure on them.

Oh my gosh!!!!!!
I keep looking at our due dates and it is so unreal! We are all literally about to have these babies!!!! How amazing!! I can't get over it. I know someone mentioned this morning about the empty bassinet in their room .... I have the same feelings. Ours has been in there for awhile but I have been looking at it everyday thinking in just this amount of time, there will be a tiny little person sleeping there!!!!!! Definitely a little scary and exciting all together. Especially since we have DD already. I'm so excited (and nervous) to see what it is like to be a mom to another little person. wow!

Omggggggggg walgreens i would have called headquarters and freeeeeeaked out!
I have a Britax as well. My sister gave it to me since my niece has outgrown it and I was seriously considering just skipping the infant car seat for the other one. I like it and I'm very grateful, those things are expensive, but it is so big! I lifted it without anything in it and its quite heavy. I guess that's what husbands are for.

My Bumgenius and Flip diapers came today!!! I am such a nerd for being so excited about diapers!
Now I have all the cloth diapers I am starting with. Been waiting to wash the stash until I had all of them. EEEEEE!!!
