Live, YAY I'm so happy for you!

and, Desiree yay!
Moo, that room is soooooo cute. I feel inspired by all the nursery talk. I might start picking colors soon. All I have for furniture so far is a cosleeper and an old rocking chair that's been handed down in the family. But, I want a dresser and a couple other pieces of furniture for storage. We have a perfect room in our house, one that's just so tiny I can't imagine it being a regular bedroom. I haven't done a thing yet, but hearing everyone talk about their plans is getting me excited to do more with it. ... and if there's one thing I learned last time, it's that it's never too early to pack the hospital bag. I'll be doing mine super early this time, too.
Campn, as to your potential houseguests saying such a thing, I can hardly believe they'd actually say that! How rude! I have kind of an inappropriate sense of humor, so if anyone ever said that to me, I'd probably reply with a totally straight face "actually the whole reason we're having another kid is because we didn't want you visiting anymore"

Love the announcement, how cute!
ginge I remember how uncomfortable that was. What I'm having trouble remembering is what I did last time for relief. I can't remember... I think maybe I put the cream on them I'd gotten to avoid stretch marks on the belly and that gave some relief. It's a horrible place to be itchy!
Today in honor of the holiday, I wore a pastel colored shirt and told my MIL that I looked like an easter egg. Since she hadn't seen me for a while she was very surprised I was showing this much already, so her reaction to seeing me made my joke even funnier. To me at least heh I crack myself up sometimes.
