Hello everyone, How are you Ladies doing? I'm doing alright. So, what are your plans for Halloween?
Wife to Robert July 14, 2006. Mother to Lilly July 10, 2007. One on the way Due March 12, 2009.
Things are good here... controlled chaos everyday :) My 3 yr old is in a bit of an eating strike right now, so I am trying to outwit her at each and every meal. The twins are fat and happy, just had their 6 month appt (granted, a month late since I can never do anything in a timely fashion anymore). They each got 5 shots and an oral vaccine, so yesterday wasn't fun for them, but they seem to feel better today. Diana has changed her mind at the last min and decided that she wants to be a witch (AGAIN!) for halloween, instead of JoJo. I want to dress the twins as bacon and eggs, but have had the WORST time finding an iron on of either item. I might have to go and get the printable iron on transfer paper and just print one from the internet.... Not sure of the logistics of trick or treating this year... since the twins go to bed early, we will have to start earlier. I don't want to short change Diana just b/c her sisters have an early bedtime. So things are good here. HOw are things for you??
Things are going pretty good. Lilly started showing signs that she is getting ready for potty training. She got a potty chair for her bday from her aunt. She has gone a lot in the potty chair. Someday more then other but we are letting her do what she wants right now since she is only 15months. IT is so cute she goes down the hall saying her word for potty and starts hitting the bathroom door. When she does that she usually goes in the potty. Sometimes she gets up to soon and goes on the floor, but we think she is doing good for her age. She has also started talking a lot more. We can't understand her half the time though, but she seems to understand a lot of what we say.
The pregnancy is going good so far. I'm 21 weeks and 2days. Not sure what we are having. They think girl, but aren't sure so we have to wait tell March to find out.

That's great on the potty training! Diana took about forever to really get the hang of it, and it's such a relief that she is on the right track now. We are still in pull ups at night, but I am just happy to only have to change diapers for 2 kids right now, instead of 3! Why do you have to wait until March to find out the sex of the baby?? Did I miss something? How do you feel about having another girl?
At my ultrasound on the 21st. The ultrasound tech said she thinks girl but that she only 50% sure. lol Well we knew that. They wont let me have another ultrasound. I feel find about it. I always wanted 2 girls and a boy.

Oh I see. Too bad they are being stingy about the u/s. That was one really great thing about having twins, I had an u/s every month to make sure they were doing alright. It was a treat! That is great that you guys have one of each now.. I am sure it takes the pressure off a bit right? Well, that of course is assuming that you really really had to have a boy. My husband doesn't care that we don't have any boys... his family is kind of uptight about it. He is the only one to carry on the family name, so of course it's come up in conversation, but I can't imagine having boys now that I have this gaggle of girls! It's all what you are used to I think.....
No, we don't have a boy. We have one girl. The one due in March will be baby #2. DH really wants a boy.

Sorry, I misunderstood the previous post :) I blame not having enough coffee! Ok... so you have one girl now. Got it. Well, if your hubby really wants a boy, then I'll keep my fingers crossed for you guys :)
