Hi, Mandy!

I just saw the pictures of the baby shower and room.  I was sad to miss it, Paul had an away track meet.   I usually don't ask for the car on those days because the last thing he wants to do is wait for me to pick him up.  Anyway, I'm glad to see the Beautiful BABY Room!  I think I have the same nursery furniture.  Israel's theme is sports.  He's got B-Ball Baseball & Soccer.  As far as your isomnia, it gets worse.  But it is the body's natural way of preparing you for baby.  Isn't that amazing how God thought of EVERYTHING?   Well, Sleepytime TEA by Celestial seasonings worked somewhat for me.  I ran it by my OB first and he approved it for me you should ask yours. Take Care.    Angie.

Mandy,

I am glad to see things are going well.  It is so neat to see pictures of you pregnant.  It won't be long now.  I was so anxious at the end, and now two months have already flown by.  Jaylin is a very sweet baby.  Please send me an e-mail or give me a call when you get a chance.

Hey Mandy!  I completely feel your pain...so much that I'm gaining too.  Somehow, that brownie, 2 cokes, 3 pudding packs & 2 bananas all fell right on my hip.  But, as I like to think of it...I might not be retaining water, but I am retaining baby!  And, so are you.  The only bad thing is I am retaining baby in my face and chin too!  :( 

Anyway, it's always good to know that we can relate.  I definitely, as always, appreciate it when you write.  So, is your little angel head down yet?  And, are you having any contractions?  I think I've been having the braxton hicks, but I'm not sure.  It's either that or just really bad gas that I won't admit to my husband.  Well, take care of you and your angel!

Hi~

I am actually looking into the Bradley Method as well. I see that you are 30 weeks along right now, so if you are serious about doing the course, it's usually a 10-12 week course. You can go to bradley.com and see where there are instuctors in your area and get in touch with them. They might be able to let you start coming if they already have classes in session. I would recommend it just from what I've read and talking to Bradley Instuctors here where I live. Let me know what you end up doing and good luck!

Hi Mandy,  Thanks for signing my guestbook!  And thanks for the compliments on our nursery too!  I have really enjoyed putting his room together.

As for where the decor has come from, I got the comforter set, the valances, the diaper stacker, the border and that whole theme set from JC Penny.  All the furniture came from JC Penny as well.   The light switch cover came from Target and so did the lamp on his dresser.  Thing is Target has gotten rid of that stuff now, well at least ours did anyway.   The name letters came from Michaels craft store.  I made the name hanging myself.  I got the bare wood letters and painted them white, then I found the little painted wood jungle characters from Michaels too and glued them on the letters.   All of the items for the name hanging and the frame I made came from Michaels.  :-) 

Hope things go well for you! 

Thanks for signing my guestbook!! I know, Kayden's ultrasounds were crazy!! The peace sign is soo clear, no one believed me until they saw them  I hope that your pregnancy goes perfectly!!! Thanks again for signing!!!

Here is my latest update...

Israel will be 3months on Sunday 3-12.  He weighs 15lbs!!  ALL NURSING! My baby smiles now, and LOVES our strolls outdoors!  He now knows strapped in stroller=outside!  He smiles like crazy when its time for his stroll.  Today,  I took him outside and came back in after 15min oh my gosh did he cry as soon as we crossed the threshold!  So back outside it was for us and he stopped as soon as he was out the door again!  As a matter of fact, he fell fast asleep 15min into the 2nd go around.   Triniti is battling her allergies so she is confined to the boring indoors by her dad.  She's so cute asking for tea (sleepytime) and chicken noodle soup and hearing her swoosh around the apt in her Hello Kitty slippers.   Despite all of the tough times one may face as a parent -these are the days that I will never forget!
