I think the most fun was announcing it to my oldest daughter. When I was pregnant with my second, she was 8 years old. We took her geocaching but we hid our own geocache for her to find. Inside was a big sister shirt, a poem about a new baby coming and her very first stuffed animal. With this pregnancy, I sat both kids on…

Hey ladies. I'm due late August or early September. I haven't been to the doctor yet to better figure that out. This will be my 3rd child. I have an 11 year old daughter and a 3 year old daughter. I miscarried between the two. I'm nervous right now about working out. I just want to see that heartbeat and I will feel much…

You can also go for walks with your baby if weather is good! My toddler loves our walks and so does my dog. All 3 benefit from it. Plus we get to talk about things around us and turn it into a learning walk. Like colors of flowers and cars, types of vehicles (bus, truck, trash truck, boat, construction vehicles, etc) that…

You want to spend time with your baby that you are away from all day while at work. Tell her that there are a lot of men out there that wouldn't want that and she should be lucky she found such a great father for her child. She should be picking up throughout the day. The heavy clenaing can be shared by you both on…

I have a fitbit so it adds up all my steps and gives me calories back to eat. I changed my settings to be strict because I was gaining weight (I don't think it is too acurate with how many exercise calories it gives me) So since I changed my settings on here, I start my day with only 1200 calories but by dinner time I have…

Interesting. Sounds yummy! Do you think feta could be switched out for the goat cheese? I'm not a fan of goat cheese. Thanks :)

I only count water and unsweetened iced tea as water. Juice and coffee are logged in my food. I think whatever you want to do but I would make sure you are drinking plenty of other 'fluids' besides coffee, soda, juice, etc...

1. How do you feel about your child's school? I love it. I use my Dad's address so she can go to the better school in my area. Both schools are within a mile from my home but my dad's is so much better. 2. How do you find out about the activities and decisions of your school? So far no problems but my daughter is a good…

Everyone's advice is great so I am not going to repeat that but one thing I didn't see anyone post (unless I bypassed it) is show him some success stories with pictures from this site. Show him casually like, 'Wow babe, look at this persons before and after pictures! I can't wait to add all of mine' Maybe that will light a…

I hate nailpolish on anything but my toes. But I LOVE my makeup. It is my best friend. I have a lot of acne and scars and it hides it somewhat. I know you guys will probably say the makeup clogged my pores to give me the acne to begin with but acne is in my genes. I wear foundation, mascara and some chapstick. I am working…

Alloy.com has nice jeans and affordable. I'm 6' so I buy them there to get their long inseam jeans. Love them! Usually around $30 a pair.

I don't but I would if I thought I had a reason to. She is only 10 so maybe in a couple years. I do however go through her phone on occasion. She only texts her parents, auntie, poppa and her best friend so all good there. (BTW- for those who judge- she walks to an after school club with some friends so her phone which is…

BUMP! This is a legit question!

I'm in! :o) SW: (Starting weight) 194 CW: (Current weight) 175 (my lowest this time around has been 171- I need to get back there) GW: (Goal weight for the month) 165 Reward- Well on 3/28 I am headed to Vegas with my long distant friend and our two older children (10 years old) for some roller coaster in the Adventure…

I was 19 when I had my first baby. Before I got pregnant I could eat what I wanted and never gain an ounce. I gained about 70lbs and it messed me up after she was born. I wish I was healthy and active during my pregnancy. I don't want you to stress but just remember to take care of yourself too. Go for little walks and…

You did a great job and are absolutely right about the things you didn't eat that you could have. Amazing! Keep up the good work!

Jealous. I want a pair too. Hoping one day. I want to make sure I am done having children first. I nursed both of mine and it made them so crummy looking. My husband still likes them but I sure don't. Anyway- enjoy!

I wanted to be a vet or work in crime labs doing forensics. I am a life insurance agent. SOOOO exciting! :yawn:

I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing- Aerosmith How Do I Live- Faith Hill sang it better than LeAnn Rimes

I remember teaching my Dad what FUPA meant. He laughed so hard! Except I use a different word for the P on women! :blushing:

I happened to already have tee tree oil diluted with water in a spray bottle from when my daughter had lice. I noticed ants in my bathroom one night and used that to spray them. I just sprayed from the back door to the bathroom trash and took the trash outside. I went to bed and when I woke up they were gone. A couple ant…

Bump for the recipe!

I felt like my Fitbit was giving me way too many calories back so I changed my goals to lose 2lbs a week. That puts me at 1200 calories in the morning but as the day goes on- it adds more and more and by the end of the day I get over 1500 and that is what I generally eat. Depends on how much I walked that day! If it says I…

Thank you everyone for your support and feedback. I am so happy to share that my daughter is back to herself. It was probably about 8-9 days total of struggling but her cold has completely gone away and she has her appetitie back. When I asked her straight out if she was not eating because she was called fatty- she swore…

We do have a close relationship and talk about a lot of things which is why this is so puzzling to me. I have talked about why her body looks different than her other friends. She has an athletic build (I personally think her other friends are too skinny but I don't want my daughter to judge them like they did her) I just…

I put apple cider vinegar on my face before bed. You get used to the smell and it has balanced my PH really well. I have horrible acne and it is the only thing I have found so far that helps as much as it does. I get the Trader Joe's unfiltered organic one. It has the mother in it and is the best out there.

I am not pregnant but joined this group because I am hoping I will be by summer. I have two little girls already. Fingers crossed to get blessed with a boy for my last and final baby. My oldest daughter is Shaylee Michele and my youngest is Delaney Kate. Shaylee is celtic and means- fairy princess of the field. Michele…

Yo Momma is so fat- not even Dora can explore her!

Your momma is so stupid she put two quarters in her ear to listen to 50 Cent!
