You hit it head on...half the time the only problem I have is that I miss him so much, that any time I try to talk it's automatic tears. I do think Creedence Leigh sounds alright, but JoJo's middle name is Marleigh, so people might think we've run outta creativity! I really like the middle name Dylann, but it doesn't really go with Creedence. Creedence Dylann Callenius? Doesn't really flow. I dunno. I am already hungry. I am debating between Taco Bell or my fav chinese restaurant for some Lemon Chicken. What I really want is ice cream.

you ladies, I don't even know how you deal with it. I'm so attached to mike, I get ansy when he mows the lawn and is outside for an hour and ignoring me. I know that's extreme but I can't help it. you guys are so strong and you're doing great! patti, I am with you on the mobile! I went to go put it on her crib and then I saw instructions, I was like hell NO, directions for a mobile!! was not in the mood, it's still not up. erin, waht about MAE for a middle name? I love that, I would have used that if we didn't have claire for mike's grandma.

See, I love Mae. My best friend from high school (who I don't talk to that much anymore, yet whenever I see her it's like old times and she is the sweetest, strongest person I know) anyways, her middle name is Mae. But I think I've mentioned it before and it was shot down. It's short and goes well, so maybe I will try it again. Gabbi, I think it's cute you are so attached to Mike. I'm not THAT attached, but it really sucks when you are used to having someone around and the all of a sudden they are gone. If he stays in Houston much longer (like 6 months to a year), I would consider moving to the hellhole that is Houston.

Oooh I like Credance Mae!! That sounds great!! Try again Erin! Ok, and I love Dylann as a first name. Geez with all the boyish names that I have liked, you would think I was really wishing for a boy!! Thanks for adding to my confusion. Because that name, like Ryann has my middle name in it which I want to incorporate somehow. ANDD we don't know anyone named Dylann!! lol!! Oh the name sage continues! I think it always frustrates me too that I miss him soo much and maybe don't feel like he misses me the same. I am sure he does, but guys don't always show or say it and he doesn't cry about it like I do either!! lol! Gabbi - I am glad to hear that you and Mike are so close - I love to see people like that! Isn't Houston really really hot???

Patti, I love the name Dylann for you guys (and have been secretly vibing it into your brain) :-). And Houston is no hotter than San Antonio (it's only 3 hours east of San Antonio), but it's a helluva lot more humid!!! But the traffic is HORRIBLE and the city is sooooo crowded and not in a good way like New York.

I like dylan too, but what happened to shayna?? gosh, I'm glad our name choice was easy for us. we even have a boy and girl name for the next kid! I just did some shopping on my lunch break. I've been bad lately with spending money, but I know once I'm not working I'm going to be cut off so I gotta get it in now! it just really sucks that we have the added expense of formula and that's something you guys don't have to worry about - I'm not even going to produce milk so we have no choice. our mortgage is literally 3,000 month plus all the bills and now baby, so things are going to be TIGHT!! erin, if I were you I'd move to houston!!! but that's coming from the needy attached wife in NJ!

erin, what'd you decide for lunch?? I just had a cuc_mber and tomato salad with a banana, nothing scrumptious today. but I bought a new pair of shoes at Aldo, these ridiculous strappy sandals that I couldn't even fit on my feet right now but I really wanted!! and I got a tablecloth at anthropologie and more clothes for casey at baby gap and I got mike some new boxers from gap too - they are having a big sale. I gotta get home before mike gets home though and unpack this stuff before I get caught!! if I get caught I'm going to have to seduce him and then he'll forget all about it. haha, see that's the best thing about mike, he can't resist me so whenever he's mad I just seduce him - he fights me at first but ALWAYS gives in, then he forgets he's mad at me! guys are so funny :)

Houston is awful though Gabbi. I wouldn't be able to leave the house for anything because the traffic is so horrible and the roads are so confusing. I went with the Lemon Chicken and it's not as good today as it usually is. Boo. I couldn't seduce a life sentencer right now if I wanted to. I feel so yuck and huge!! No wonder you only gained a pound-you're eating bunny food! Salad does sound good though, but with chicken and cheese and ranch dressing.

Hells yeah I think he will get over 9lbs! In the last 4 weeks only they put on approximately 2 pounds....soooooo add those 2 to the already probably close to 6 lbs and you have 8 pounds and that's not taking into consideration the next 2 weeks until you even get to 36 weeks. So yes, honey, he will be d__n close to 9 lbs I fear. If you don't want the automatic c-section, maybe she can induce you (a__suming your cervix is ripe) at like 38 weeks. I personally, would take an induction over c-section, especially if you know you are getting an epidural. But only if my cervix was ready.

Thats a very good idea. Remind me to ask her next week incase I forget. We will jsut be 34 weeks tomorrow so we still ahve 6 more weeks today and I believe he is likely over 6 lbs now so i did figure he would get that big. So I was a bad girl today. After my doc apt Jeremy and I went to burger king. I just couldnt say NO. I am so tired of this rabbit food. I had to have something real....lol.

Does anyone else's baby move in ways that actually hurt? I swear this has to be the boniest kid ever! Alicia, I am SO curious now to see how big Mason is going to be. For some reason, I think Cree will be my smallest. Can you believe we are already 34 weeks? I got kinda sad today when I thought about this being my last pregnancy and my last 6 weeks and such. I told myself I need to start enjoying it. Easier said than done! But seriously, I am gonna miss this so much when it's over. I was talking to my husband about tube tying and stuff and I just mentioned that I wanted them tied rather than cut in case in a few years we wanted one more. His response was rather comical. Something along the lines of "We're gonna have four kids Erin! I was happy because Josephine was 2 and a half and things were getting kinda easier. Are you nuts!" But I can't be pregnant forever, nor get pregnant just because I like the feeling of being pregnant. (Not rich enough for that!) :-(

I know erin. Only 1 month and 13 days for us. It is coming so quickly. I'm sure Jeremy's response would be the same as Carls. Unless we had all 4 boys. Then Jeremy would be like sure we can have another. And not just cuz the next might be a girl but becuz it would likey be another boy and then thats just one more boy for him to have. But I doubt i could ever do this 4 times. Your a strong woman....

guys, I'm freaking out. I'm just realizing that casey has been moving like a maniac ALL DAY. like never before. I feel like I read somewhere that that might be a cause for concern - like maybe she's in distress or something?? I mean, I was just there last night and her heartbeat was fine. but I've never felt so much consistant movement from her, it's literally been going on almost all day. Mike MADE me call the doctor and I left a message for the nurse - I felt foolish but whatever. what do you guys think??

Strong or stupid? I sometimes wonder.... Gabbi, don't freak out. Is it literally all day, or only now and again? Because Creedence will have like 30 minutes of crazy movement and then times when I a__sume she is sleeping and times when it's just a nudge here and a booty lift there. I think you did best by phoning your doctor. They will be the only ones to tell you whether or not to be concerned. A NST never hurt nobody!

Okay, I reread your post and you make it very clear that it's all day-my bad!

thanks erin - it's so nice to have a veteran mommy. the nurse just called me back, they asked the doc and he's not worried. they said unless I was having other signs like contractions or spotting an active baby doesn't worry them. but the nurse was nice and didn't make me feel stupid. I'm sure they get tons of calls for much stupider stuff and from much crazier mothers than myself. or at least I'll just tell myself that :)
