Week of August 15th!!
Hi All,
Hope everyone's having a great weekend! We went to my niece's b-day party last night, she'll be 10 on Friday. Time sure flies! I was good, had 2 small slices of pizza and some salad. I did have 2 cans of root beer, but I almost never drink soda, so that was a treat for me. I only ate a few bites of the cake too.
Wednesday is the big day, we go for the U/S to confirm it's a girl! OK, I hope I'm not too disappointed if it's a boy. I don't think I will, at least not for more than a few seconds, but I am silly worrying about these things.

Hey Lauren~
Enjoy your ultrasound! I have learned that depending on who does the ultrasound, it is reliable or not for gender. I have caught many a baby who's gender was not what the parents had been told to expect. Sooooo....bring something yellow to the hospital for the baby to wear home just in case.
My kids had Wendy's for lunch today (their grandma got it for them and brought it home). I am so proud cause I made myself a chicken sandwich with pickles and tobasco and I did not snitch a single fry! (My problem is once I snitch one, the rest are history too).
Going running tonight. GO, go, go!!
Jen

Jen, GREAT for you going running!! Good for you not snitching any fries! You're a strong woman!! With Peter I remember the U/S tech saying something like, congratulations, you're having a turtle! And then explaining that with boys, it looks like a turtle and girls is just 3 lines.

Afternoon all! It was a big food weekend for me because I went on a vacation. You all know how it is when you're on vacation. No rules! So I have to get back on board. I'm going running tonight too Jen. Hopefully we don't pass out! ha ha. Happy Monday everyone.

hello!
Thought I'd pop in to say hi. I'm taking ds back to school later this week and then off on a business trip with dh so August is still crazy for me. In September I should get back to normal.
Lauren - exciting that you will find out on Wednesday!
hello to everyone.

Any change of venue seems to reek havoc for me. The last two concerts I ate and drank way to much. Especially Sunday, it was a wine tasting night before the concert. There were about 30 Pacific Northwest wineries handing out free samples to wine that ran 15-60 dollars per bottle. After drinking that much wine I certainly don't watch what I eat. Yesterday wasn't much better. My weight seems to be creeping up and not down. I was 198 this morning and only have 4 more days before the long bridge swim which is a race I do every year (1.78 miles). I am doing it, but it will be very slow considering I have only swam 1/2 that distance twice this summer.
Jen: I totally admire your getting out there to run! Way to go!
Lauren: Ultrasounds are so cool, congratulations!

It's another boy. I'm happy, but will admit that I'm pretty disappointed too.

Oh, Lauren!! I know how it feels to be happy and bummed at the same time. There is an attachment that happens, in your dreams and your imagination. Congratulations on another son! (The positive banana sign!! )

The dissapointment will fade fast with the arrival of a new baby. Our motto lately Remember the newest baby is always the most perfect. Congratulations!

Sorry it wasn't a girl Lauren. But just consider yourself lucky that you are pregnant. We've been trying for 8 months now with no luck. I'm sure you'll love him regardless.
Hi Jen. My run went well. I'm going again tonight after my doctor's appointment. I have to get my yearly physical (fun!). I've been limiting my meat intake and working out so hopefully my cholesterol has dropped from 230.
Take care ladies.
