5. When was the first time you felt your baby moving? _Jennlin About 17 weeks with Collin, and I have been feeling Bean move for about a week now.
6. How much did you guys have to buy/spend after your showers. Everyone is buying us the "cute" stuff and it is looking like we are going to have a lot of items left we need to buy that we really need. ?karebear219 We bought the large items ourselves -- crib, dresser, carseats, etc. My mom bought our glider, which was awesome, and I used gift cards/credit from exchanges after the shower to pick up some of the other bigger items like the pack-and-play and breast pump. I think it's pretty normal -- people tend to buy clothes, especially with a first baby, and books and toys. Not many people go "OOOH, $300 breast pump!"

8. What are some questions regarding pregnancy that annoy you when asked (i.e. do you have a name? are you having twins? can I tell you what name I think you should use?)? ?IkesHawiian06 I get annoyed when people I don't know well ask how long it took me to get pregnant, especially since it took SO long last time, and "wow, you're clearly gifted at fertility" comments make me want to cut someone.

4. Monday confession?
5. When was the first time you felt your baby moving? _Jennlin 17 weeks
6. How much did you guys have to buy/spend after your showers. Everyone is buying us the "cute" stuff and it is looking like we are going to have a lot of items left we need to buy that we really need. ?karebear219 With Holden we had to buy most necessary things ourselves, but with these babies our friends and family have been SO generous with presents and gift cards that the only thing we need to pay for ourselves is a crib!
7. What is your No. 1 craving? ?MrsEditorJax Sweets, lots and lots of sweets. And any cheese flavored chips...
8. What are some questions regarding pregnancy that annoy you when asked (i.e. do you have a name? are you having twins? can I tell you what name I think you should use?)? ?IkesHawiian06 I used to hate the "are you having twins/are you sure there's just one?" comments, but they dont bug me this time around
