July 12<SPAN st

brownmouse

M: 1) Weekend was great. My parents came into town. 2)I officially got my first pair of belly pants. After going to work, and having my boss help me tie my shoe because I couldn't reach my feet due to over-tight pants(that were rubberbanded at that!!), I broke down, and got some belly panel jeans. Comfy now!!!  3) July is HOT. And Humid. I mean...only about 90 degrees, but the humidity makes up for it. Sundresses, yay!

T: I hope they get his brown hair. My hair is naturally the blondest blond you can get. At least, it was when I was a baby...not it's the color of dirty bathwater. I also hope they get his skinny-as-a-rail-ness. Plump babies are cute, but being a teenager seems to be a lot less stressful when you're not as pudgy as I was..... 

 

Side Note: SOOOO excited about the gift exchange!  I can't wait until my person answers my questions, and gives me some ideas so I can start shopping/crafting!

courtj

I hope our child gets my DH's blue eyes and hard work ethic. I hope he gets determination and attitude from me!!

tmp-116966375004162

I'd like to be added to the list. ?I'm due July 21 and it's a boy! ?My name is Deb and I'm 24 years old. ?Thanks!

MindyCarr2009!

i hope our baby gets DH's hard work ethic and determination and i hope he gets my outgoingness and humor

calex33

From DH: laid-back personality, skin color, dimples, extrovert?Me: blue eyes, teeth, book smarts?

b.heather

I'm very good with English (my mother is an English teacher and I have an MA in technical writing), so I hope baby gets that trait. My DH is amazing with computers too, so if baby gets both of those skills they will be a powerhouse!

On the pesonal side, we are both very loving, and I hope we pass that on to our baby :-)

madonnadouwanna

For looks, I hope she gets DH's blue eyes (that's how I noticed him!), his teeth, and my height.  Personality, I hope she gets his common sense and laid back attitude and my book smarts, determination, and caring personality. 

danaann78

I hope baby gets my ears and teeth, but other than that I'd love for him to be a mini DH.  I am fully expecting him to have the "Salamone Chin."  For as many generations as I can remember, everyone of us (in a HUGE Italian family) have the same chin. If this little man doesn't have THE chin, I'll be a little disappointed. 

Kendall13

1) Half of the weekend we spent on a cruise boat returning from Cozumel Mexico, and the other hlaf was spent driving back home from Tampa.  I'm very tan, but now I have to hang out in 20 degree weather and snow!

2) I hope that our baby gets a good mix of our features... I would love a mix of our skin tones with his lips and my blue eyes.  I hope that our kids are tall like he is, but that they have my athleticism.

allicia82

T:  My DH has the most amazing green eyes.  Everywhere we go, people (usually ladies) comment on how beautiful his eyes are.  I really hope that our baby gets those eyes and DH's skin tone and maybe his cute little curls.  I'm really fair complected and my hair is straight. 

seabass22

I hope the baby gets my blue eyes & strength and DH's curly hair & patience.

SteffaniO

From me: teeth, nose, book smarts, memory

From FI: hair, height, metabolism, work ethic

jenniferb96

I hope our daughter gets my dark brown curly hair and my DH bright blue eyes!!!

Kery1499

I am hoping she gets Dh's smile and teeth! Its really nice.. Dh wants her to have everything else mine.. haha he really loves my cheeks< i have a round face

prettyshoes

I hope that my kids get DH's work ethic and his sense of humor. I hope they DO NOT get his extreme worrying habit....we shall see.

jmstone

M:  (1) Our weekend was very uneventful. We basically just laid around in our pj's together which was actually very nice - DH hardly ever has both Sat. & Sun. off so it was nice to have him around.  (2) No appts but DH can feel the baby moving every morning & night while we're laying in bed. He thinks that's pretty amazing. (3) I know we're just in Ohio and it shouldn't be too hot but it can get pretty unbearable. The humidity gets pretty high, so even though the temp may be 80 it feels like 100 and sticky.

T:  I hope our child gets DH's sense of direction (b/c I'm incredibly horrible), work ethic, his dark, dark hair, his cute nose, & skin type (I'm oily & acne prone)

C.Mo

 What traits of yours or your DH/SO do you hope get passed on to your children?

Me: body type, work ethic, my teeth since I never needed braces.

DH: coloring (brown hair, brown eyes, olive skin), sense of humor, calmness under pressure.

music247

M: (1) How was your weekend?  (2) Any baby/pregnancy updates?  (3) What's the summer weather (July!) like where you live?

My weekend was okay -- We didn't do much, had a tire blow out!! And we went to view a hall for our anniversary party this year. I felt the baby kick for the first time Saturday night!! Summer in Baltimore is H-O-T.

 

 

T: What traits of yours or your DH/SO do you hope get passed on to your children?

I hope my children get my DH's fine hair and his nose...everything else can come from me. LOL

*Bee*

I hope she gets his green eyes and wavy blonde hair.  I also hope she gets his smarts and relaxed disposition. (Please, Kate, please be relaxed and easy-going and not high-strung type-A like your mama!)

SwellyBelly

I hope he gets my DH great teeth. (Mine are awful....no matter what i do!) AND maybe his beautiful blonde hair when he was a baby! Ide love to have a little blonde baby!  Maybe he will get my caring side and patience. I want him to be just like our 6 year old. he was so easy! ( its not going to happen )

tandt92505

I hope she gets his:

1) Legs, I know that's weird, but mine are much chunkier than his.

2) Patience and even temperment

3) Ability to understand and manipulate machines and technology

 

FirefightersBride

I hope they get his kind nature and beautiful blue eyes!

Jennloves

DH's sense of humor and my work ethic.

MrsSchoon04

M: (1) How was your weekend?  (2) Any baby/pregnancy updates?  (3) What's the summer weather (July!) like where you live?

Pretty slow weekend around here. It snowed here which it never does! DH and I are both recovering from a cold so we didn't do much.

 

It is HOT here in Alabama in July. Not really looking forward to it.

 

T: What traits of yours or your DH/SO do you hope get passed on to your children?

 

I hope our son is tall like DH, has a mischievous personality, and is honest and hard-working like him. From me...I hope he likes to cook at least a little, likes books/art/culture, and is understanding and forgiving. I hope he gets both our work ethics. 

 

~sassymama~

Hi, I have been MIA for awhile. I can't get on the website from work anymore! We found out last week we are having a BABY GIRL!!!

M) 1.Our weekend was great! Bought some baby clothes and finished up the registry as well as ordered bedding! 2. My update is above! 3. July is usually hot and humid, but not as hot as August usually!

T) I am hoping our children get my DH's baby blue eyes and healthy teeth!

{tam*jan}

T: I hope our children get DH's logical and laid back attitude. He's always sure everything will work out and he's usually right.

AZ2MN4LOVE

I hope our children get my laid back go with the flow personality and DH's charm. Looks wise I have a pretty good guess that they will have blue eyes and blond hair since DH and I are both blond and blue eyed. i

sorry for the multiple post computer at work freaked oops

lovelyophelia

I hope our child gets my ability to do math, DH's blue eyes and patience. I really hope DC ends up with anything that is tied ot my ILs.  DH has a lot of warped views thanks to them.

mjstraub

My DH and I are complete opposites, haha!  From me, I hope the baby gets my drive for life and ability to finish what they start.  I am a go getter and work hard for my acheivements.  From my DH, I hope the baby gets his common sense and ability to think mechanically.  I can't even hang a picture on the wall, so you see the point!

 

Starlette1983

Good morning!

I hope that our baby gets DH's metabolism!  And his hazel eyes are very nice too!  For a non-physical trait, I really hope that baby gets his work ethic... it is so much better than mine!  He is very responsible and a big problem-solver type!

Mrs Kittle

T: What traits of yours or your DH/SO do you hope get passed on to your children? My DH is so laid back vs me = high strung. I hope our Peanut is a little of both.

allowry

M: (1) Weekend was good, go to see BIL and SIL

(2) Got a call from Dr. yesterday, have to come in a week early to talk about blood results I am a high risk patient but I still hope there's nothing wrong.

(3) Pretty freaking hot!!!

T: I hope she gets my hair, as much as I hated it when I was little.  I looked like Annie, I do really love it now.  I hope she gets a little of my husbands height but not all of it, he's 6'3 and I'm 5'3.  Definitely my feet.  My husband wears a 15!

Sunny70

I hope the little one gets his nose! He has the cutest nose in the world and I hate mine with a passion. Also his metabolism, and some height would be good, he is 6'3" and I am only 5'6".
