We have a lot of newbies on the board lately, so I figure we should do a introduction poll and our weekly PG/LO Update. Every week we update the board on our Pregnancy progress and our Child(ren).

3. Sean
4. Crofton
5. My update is that my child used to be really easy and fun to take out to restaurants and now he is a terror. He will not sit in a high chair for more than 5 minutes. All he wants to do is run around. Arrrrrrrgggggggghhhhh. I cannot believe how much energy he has!!
2. Due Date/Birthday: 3/22/10

3. What area your in: The Hereford Zone (aka Northern Baltimore County)

2. Due Date/Birthday: 1/12/10
3. Child(ren) Name: Collin
3. What area your in: Abingdon
4. LO/PG Updates you would like to share:
After weeks of nothing new, Collin has started doing so many new things, I don't know where to start. He claps, raises his arms for touchdown, "dances", signs "more", stands for long periods of time and attempts steps, and he gives kisses. It's amazing how all the sudden he can do so much more! This is such a fun age because I can tell he knows what is going on. :0)
2. Due Date/Birthday: 12/10/08
3. Child(ren) Name: Ella
3. What area your in: Columbia
4. LO/PG Updates you would like to share: Just got back from Disney - DD loves spotting the "mouse! mouse!" Actually seeing him in person - not so much. She likes to say "Sorry Mommy" all the time - hilarious. And, also is a little bossy - "no, no mommy" She's a blast!I got a VW Jetta TDI. (A clean diesel.) It is Salsa Red and has a moon roof. I think I am in love with the satellite radio. This is highly ironic since i totally gave my DH crap about "unneccesary expenses" when he wanted satellite radio. But man is is nice not to have to listen to all the campaign ads on the way to work!
1. Name: Melissa
2. Due Date/Birthday: 4/19/11

4. LO/PG Updates you would like to share: Had 14 week appt last week and heard heartbeat. We have our anatomy scan on Nov 17th. I really don't care about finding out about the gender...I just want to see our baby again! (But we'll find out if baby cooperates.)Someone's getting a little brother!

Happy Birthday, little man. We love you so much!
My favorite money saving tip: I've earned more than $300 in gift cards (Amazon, Starbucks, Southwest!) using SwagBucks for internet searching - and you can too! It's FREE and EASY!

4. B- Has used the potty every night this week both #1 and #2. He has gone from no interest to telling us when he feels the need to go. Whoo!!!
C- 8 months today. Crawling everywhere, attempting to clap, sitting like a pro, cruising the furniture, trying to climb on everything, letting go of the furniture to try and stand on her own. I think we're in trouble with this one

4. LO/PG Updates you would like to share: Pretty sure we've hit teething AND 4 month wakeful this week... UGH. He's been grouchy as can be most of the day, and gnawing on everything he can find and drooling like mad. After STTN for weeks, he decided that he wanted to party Sunday night from 1:30 - 3 when we finally just plopped him in his crib and let him talk himself to sleep (he did) and most of his naps have sucked, too. Lovely.... every single day of forever.

He's also giving "kisses" now, so exciting! Most people try to turn their face so he gets the cheek. However, he'll then grab your face w/ both hands so he can give a "kiss" on the nose or mouth, lol!
