I canNOT believe this... I had the most beautiful, touching, wonderful 1st post to this new thread and "POOF!" -- it's gone!

Maybe it's the cyber-world telling me it's time to get to bed... good night, my lovelies!!

Good morning and special violet vibes to Pamela!! That is such an accomplishment!!

I have a sleep study tonight, so no posting from me after this til tomorrow. I have had about 6 or 7 and have never gone into dream sleep, so I have two sleeping pills they gave me to sleep tonight. So I know I will sleep good/well. I never know when you can't and can use those words.

I am lucky that I am allergic to nuts, it really limits the candy I can eat!! You did great Kat, if that was me, any food in the house means I MUST finish it. I am not sure where that comes from. I don't ever remember being limited, we never really had dessert, so that wasn't an issue. I do remember though being little and my dad would say I can have 3 donuts, and I always said when I get older I am going to have as many as I want. That is the only time.

Hi to Jennifer, Tracyk, Tracyks, Laura, Carson, Terry, Judy, Suzanne, Suzie T, Heather, Haydee, Kat, Michelle, and a special one to Pamela!!!!!!

GOOD LUCK PAMMY!!

:wub:

WE LOVE YOU!!

I'm with you, Pam!!!

:wub: (However, not sure that that's a GOOD thing! :wub:)

Oh terry, Hero looks so wonderful. I would love to just rub that belly. I just love it when my dogs sleep like that. Can't ever help myself from rubbing their bellies and kissing their necks, LOL. Oh and is that the furry blankie that I gave you two Christmases ago?? I love it! I have one just like it that I keep on my couch too!

Another beautiful day here. Hopefully no more cold weather! I'm ready to go swimming.

We are throwing a party for my sister on Saturday night. She's turning the big 3-0! She said no party but we of course ignored her, LOL...

We are gonna do a cocktail party with heavy appetizers. Is that acceptable nowadays? I have not a clue. Where are my hostesses with the mostesses to help me out here...

This is what we are planning to serve, the prerequisite cubed cheese and cubed meat trays. Assortment of sushi. Pot stickers and pork dumplings. Teriyaki Meatballs. Mini eggrolls. Chilled shrimp with cocktail sauce. Stuffed mushrooms. Hot asparagus dip. Spinach dip. A crudités platter.

The reason we are doing only heavy appetizers is because it's alot of people and we don't want to put down huge tables. Just barstools everywhere and a big dance floor area. Any other suggestions? Something easy? We want to have enough food so that people fill up!

WOOHOOOOOOO PAM!!!!!!!!!!

I am about to head out to obgyn, then to the tea party!

Hello everyone!!!

Laura, every day I take a peek online looking for news :0). I am so excited about your upcoming new arrival that it is the first thing I think about when I log on. I just cant wait to see what he is going to look like.

Another day has passed and I have again had a piece of chocolate before lunch . . . aargh. This time I bit the head off of a small white chocolate bunny, but I left the nether regions intact. Perhaps that is progress of a sort, lol.

I think cocktails and appetizers are an excellent way to go. I always have more fun at these kinds of parties than at a sit down meal. It encourages movement, mingling and ever-changing conversational groups. For a birthday party, I think it will be a perfect choice and your appetizer choices sound great.

YAY Laura! Have fun at both!! Are you going to the obgyn weekly nowadays? Do you know that I still have your present sitting in my car? oh my gawd i'm so bad. Carson will be four by the time he gets his baby present, LOL. No seriously I'm getting it out today, no if and or buts...

Heather - thanks for the encouragement! My other sister wasn't to happy about not having a sit down but I think I like it better like this. That's why I was second guessing myself...

Gah, I can't get myself organized at work today. I have a ton of work and it's already 11am and I've done nothing! Just piddly little stuff that keeps coming at me... I have to just shut my door, turn off my ringer and close my email in order to get this done. I do NOT want to stay late today... can't do it...

Still sending you good vibes Pammy!!

DID YA'LL GET THE TEXT FROM LAURA??

They want to induce her TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No! I did not get this text!! Why? What's going on?? Ack! Ack! Where's Mr. Willy Nilly smilie when I need him quick??

DID YA'LL GET THE TEXT FROM LAURA??

They want to induce her TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YES....how exciting!!! :wub: She must be beside herself!

Still no word from Pamela though....

DID YA'LL GET THE TEXT FROM LAURA??

They want to induce her TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Really???? I am sooo excited at the thought and I can't wait to see Baby Carson. :0)

I was not sure if she was going to allow induction or not because of the difficulties some people have. I thought she was going to wait a little bit longer and then proceed if it didn't start naturally, but I can't remember the exact details of the posts. I think she is due on the 23rd which is about a week away.

If anybody hears anything, please post it so I can check :0)

I am stopping by my house real quick. Yea Laura!!!!!!!! I will have you and Russell in my prayers and thoughts for a quick painfree delivery!!

Hope all is going well with Pamela!!!

I have to ask you guys if having some of the little muffins with fruit in them at Sweet Tomatoes/Soup Plantation is considered sugar? I didn't eat any dessert. But did have three of the mini muffins.

Okay I am off now, hope all goes well with everyone!!!

:thumbup: <---This must be what Laura & Russell look like right now!

Yeah that's pretty much what we look like LOL.

We are going to do it, she said I'm 4cm dilated and where as last week she didn't think I was favorable for the induction tomorrow (which is what she wanted a couple weeks ago), apparently he's now effaced 60% and dropped down.. woo.

So it's scheduled! Russ & I just got back from the Tea Party & Lunch.. we took pics of us at the Tea Party--where we got the final call from doc saying they were able to get us booked at the hospital. What a fun story to tell Carson someday.. found out we were gonna have him the next day while at a political rally!

Ok so I'm suppose to be wrapping things up at work so we can go home and get the house in order...

GTG I'll write more tonight.

Real fast before I leave, I will have my cell phone on tonight (I hope they allow it!) If something happens call me!!!
