Are you happy to be having another boy? I hear so many things of people secretly wishing for one gender over the other, what about you? Do you scrapbook?

Amy:

I'm EXCITED to be having another boy. (I've actually wanted to have 2 boys FIRST...) Steve was the one who, at FIRST, was disappointed because we were having a boy, but he's happy about it now too. I guess finding out early really helps mentally prepare you! :)

I feel like I'm a washed-up scrapbooker. I used to do it religiously. (Like at least once or twice a week.) But then life happened and I don't think I've scrapped for years! (Notice the plural....it's been a LONG time!)

How hard was it to give up the sugar during this pregnancy? My doc says I am probably heading that way, I want to know how many days I am going to be grouchy from not getting sugar!~Jewelle

Jewelle:

Thankfully, I haven't had to give up sugar. I'm on insulin, which actually counteracts the GD fairly well. There are actually days when I need to boost my calorie intake (because I lose weight when I'm pregnant instead of gaining like you're SUPPOSED to....) On those days I totally justify taking a whole lot of candy as my remedy.

I'm sorry that you're heading that direction. If you have any other questions PLEASE don't hesitate to call or talk to me!! I love rambling on about myself! ;)

Did you do your visiting teaching last month? ;) BTW, I counted you, hope that's okay.

Elena:

Does half of the people count?? I actually just TALKED to two of the people....so I counted it, but as for going out and doing actual "visits," uh, I slacked off. My poor partner now realizes that I'm a bad partner, but I think she puts up with me! (And I've told you to count me....PLEASE, you know more about me than any other VTer I've ever had!!)

Do you ever watch soap operas while eating bon bons? Isn't that the cliche' SAHM thing to do? I think all men secretly think that is what we do all day. I once actually did it (minus the soaps). The bon bons were yummy!

Mattsmom:

I HATE soap operas.....is that bad?? My mom used to watch one when I was growing up, but I have never and have no DESIRE to ever watch one now. Yeah, it's a little cliche, but I think the normal SAHM thing is to go a bit crazy and find her computer friends to comfort her! ;) (Is there a place around here that SELLS bon bons?? Those sound really good right now!)
