seattle nestie-bumpie transition....

soooo.....seattle TB is usually pretty slow- and seattle TN is pretty poppin' (check it out  if you never go there!) but we're starting to get overloaded with baby-related posts, and us mommas/almost-mommas/wannabe-mommas are going to all come here and say "hi" and bring our baby posts here. hopefully this will "wake up" seattle TB a bit, and relieve the notyet-mommas/never-mommas on TN of our baby talk....

 

so let's start here:

hi i'm jenn! i've been posting on TB here and there throughout my pregnancy, and now am a momma of a little girl and couldn't be more thrilled! i've been a "regular" on TN for some time now, and on TK before that, so you're not really getting rid of me. sorry. Stick out tongue

i'm 26, live in lynnwood, and am currently following my chinese tradition of 30 days of house-arrest after a baby.

 

seattle nesties turning bumpies, say "HI" in this post, so we don't bombard the board the same way we did TN a few years ago :)



Re: seattle nestie-bumpie transition....

  • Since Jennlin started this post for us... Smile

     

    Anyway here goes: Hey, I'm Alise and I'm 24, live in the Yakima Valley.   I've been mostly lurking and posting in the weekly check in's as much as possible. I don't always remember to do so every week but I try!

    I started posting on TK before I got married, then after I got married and moved to WA I found the Seattle board on TN and lurked and eventually started posting there. Now since I'm pregnant and due with baby in 8ish weeks or so I've been posting on several different boards here on TB.

  • Congratulations, Jennlin!! I had no idea she was already here - awesome!

    My name is Angel. I used to be a regular poster, but I rarely find the time to open up my laptop these days and Bumping from my iphone is a PITA. I like stopping by every once in a while when I'm sure the children aren't harming themselves. Stick out tongue

    I have two girls, one is three and the other is seven months today! Here are some pictures we had taken recently of our little family if you want to see us being goofy.

    I'm 31 and in North Snohomish County. I love planning and am a retired wedding and events coordinator. So now I put a ton of energy into kids parties. Pinterest is my favoritest thing. Big Smile

    I planned the last girls night out at Belltown Billiards and My next girls night out idea is the Mom Pr!om. I'm so excited!

  • I guess I am guilty of being a casual nestie/bumpie lurker. Once I got my BFP, I've tried to chime in to the bump more! I know this board was a happening place for such a long time then it kinda vaporized! I would love to be a real part of it!

    I'm Amy and live in the Olympia/Lacey area. I'm 32, married to my high school sweetheart (just celebrated our 15 year dating anniversary!), have a 5 year old beagle that I love as if she was my child and am a nanny to two little kids, 1 and 4. Being a nanny for 4.5 years has given me a lot of prep for being a first time mom but not completely, I still need a bunch of mommy-guidance!

  • I'm KRoseToes! I've been posting on this board for over three years. Unfortunately, no baby yet due to infertility issues, but we're moving forward with IVF this summer! I'm a management analyst and I work for the State. I really love my job, but I am insanely busy right now and have an hour commute each way (which kind of sucks.) 

    I'm a sporadic poster because: 1) I can't post from work, 2) I work long hours and then don't have a lot of time to post by the time I get home, 3) I've never been pregnant and don't have children, so I can't contribute a lot to the conversation. However, I hope to post more as we move forward (and hopefully I get pregnant this summer!)

  • I'm Ciara. I'm 25 and live on the peninsula. I have a 9.5 month old son named Edmund. I post every once in a while. I can't post from work because posting from my phone is a pain. I was originally on TK and then on TN for a bit before moving over here. I recently went back to TN because it was more active than this board. We are gearing up for Edmund's second surgery and the doctors appointments that come along with it. I'm also starting to plan his first birthday party. I can't believe he is almost a year old.

  • This is awesome.

     I was never really on TK, and ended up getting pregnant right away so I skipped the nest entirely. I live in eastern wa but did live in the seattle area for a short time. I have a lil boy who turns 7 months on FRIDAY! I just discovered TN-seattle recently.

    Anyways....here I am! Hello!

  • I received most of my shameful 10,000+ post count from this board, but sadly, I too ran away for greener pastures after this board died. I've been spending the majority of my time on TTGP, then 1st Tri and October 2012, only coming here to check-in and occasionally offer some advice. I miss this board though. I hope you girls can kick it in the pants!

    Hi, my name is Katie. I live in Seattle. I have an almost 3-year old son, Max. I will be 33 too soon, and I am pregnant with my second, due 10-12-12.

    My name is Stephanie. I'm 32 years old and I live in the Lynnwood / Everett area. I just posted on the Seattle board that I'm interested in starting a "Seattle Mom's Club." I'm a first time mom to my son, Jason Graham, who was born on 2/17/12. Please email me if you're interested in forming a support & activity group!

  • Jennlin! Congrats - I'm anxious to hear your birth story! Did you ever find the # to the FMC? ;)

    My name is Brianne - and sometimes go by Bri. I have 2 beautiful kids, Jackson (2.5) and Malia (10 mo). I am 32 and live in Mill Creek.

  • Hi! I haven't been on here in quite a while, hopefully it will liven back up! I'm Angie, I have 3 year old twin boys and an 11 month old daughter. Welcome!

  • I, too, am guilty of bailing when the board died.  But I'm trying to peek in more often these days!

    I'm Michelle, I have a 2.5 yr old daughter named Lila, and I live in North Seattle.  I started on TK in 2005, then did time on TN and moved to TB at the beginning of 2009 when I announced that I was PG.  Smile 

  • I used to post here all the time, but I've gotten out of the habit lately.  If traffic picks up, I'm sure I'll be around more often!  I've got 2 kids, age 4 and 2.5.  I've actually been around since the Seattle babies board started (2007 or 2008, I think).

    Jennlin! Congrats - I'm anxious to hear your birth story! Did you ever find the # to the FMC? ;)

    no, lol. i gave birth the day of my appt. but i called the afterhours number on my OB's card, (but i don't know if this is directly to my OB's office or to FMC) and it all worked out... i think.

    i've been working on my birth story, but it's ridic long. i think i need to make a short version, too haha. 



  • Hi, I'm Carolyn! I am rarely on this board. Usually I stick around the December 2011 board and/or the baby names board (but honestly most of my online time is spent on my blog or Facebook). We live in University Place near Tacoma. We have three daughters (see sig), the youngest is 2 months old as of Sunday. And I'm a photographer. Nice to meet you all :)
  • Hi! I am Alicia. I also used to be on the boards all the time, and as the board dwindled, I checked back here less and less. I would still lurk, but couldn't post because I ended up signed out and couldn't remember my log in info for the life of me. I have it now so, Yay!

     We used to live in the north end, and now we live in MI. I have 3 kids, Luke, 14 years, Ella, 3 1/2 years, and Thea (Tay-ah), 17 months. We are talking about number 4, and I might be breaking dh down and will start ttc this summer. :)

  • I'm Cupcake Pirate, was on TK before my wedding and skipped over TN because babies are cuter than houses to lurk after.

    Wee Girl/BabyCupcakePirate/Lillian is 11.5 months old. Where has the last year gone? I'm in the Tri-Cities and am an occasional poster, but I finally got to Bronze so that has to count for something, right? It seemed like there was a mini baby boom that may have contributed to the death of the board?

    It is good to see familiar faces!

    Jenn, she's gorgeous (as if you didn't know that already!)
