Hi! We had a a cold rainy day here in the south, time for soup recipes! Any good ones??

Hello mamas.

What are you busy with this week Melissa? How is little Mary? Is she walking?

Hallie, I have a couple yummy soups or crockpot things I love. When we are home I will sit down at the computer and type them out.

I think the lack of sleep is catching up to me. I feel drained.

Mama.

I've been hunting for a new carrier. The Ergo is to short for June now. I need something easy for Ray and quick for me. I love my wraps, but I need something different. I have my heart set on a Wompat from wearababy, bug she won't ship them to the US. I need to find someone outside the US to buy for me! Lol. I'm just dreaming I guess...

I think my eyes are going I read Amy was looking for a new career and then went into talking about her ergo---lol I gues I am tired!

Britt I hope rest comes your way.

Hallie--It is cold and rainy here too--I am thinking about some squash type--fallish soups. Gwynenth Paltrow has a cookbook out called my fathers daughter--and she has the most amazing soup recipes in it. I check it out of the library whenever I am in the mood.



I am actually liking the cold weather. It feels good to not sweat the moment I walk outside.

Dh went away this past weekend and it was me and the 3 monsters--I mean kiddos. They were good I just had a migraine. Blu had his first soccer game and he had a blast. Peyton watched the whole game and cheered, and Tanner ran around--he likes to run forward and then backwards. Everyone kept coming up to me saying how good Blu is and that they know Dh and I were college basketball players but Blu is really good at soccer. Dh and I laugh bc people are already ready to label Blu as a soccer player and talk about soccer as a future and I just think--Some perspective people he is 5!!!

We teach our kiddos sports but that is bc we are able to--if we could we would teach them to play piano--we could care less if they decide to play sports or not--just live a healthy lifestyle. My dream is for them to actually play in a rock band--Blu would be the drummer and Tanner the lead singer--lol! OK I am just crazy talking now.

Nvm. It wasn't the lack of sleep. It is the flu. My older two have been throwing up and in bed all day, Dh and I have been feeling sick but trying to ward it off and manage the little ones. And, we are leaving in the morning for a 10 hour drive home, no ifs ands or buts says DHs unit. I really hope we are all feeling better.

Ps- Sorry for being a downer this week.

[dagmomma]

So sorry about your week Britt. Which I could help in some way. I hope everyone is feeling better soon.

Had a Dr appt yesterday and Dr couldn't find heartbeat. I am staying optimistic bc I am only 11 weeks and I have an anterior placenta. So I am just going to continue to stay positive and not worry--thats the game plan.

[Lifeisjoy]

Prayers for both of you Britt and Alison.

praying for you that it's just placenta placement. When do you go for another check?

Halloween but I think I am going to change that. But it will be 4 weeks.
