Newbies? Call out!

Do we have some new kids on our block? I've noticed low post counts from some of the posters, since I can't see siggy's I have no idea if they are old posters under new names.

Re: Newbies? Call out!
MOG I LOVE THAT YOU'RE BACK! I realized I was funnier pregnant when I was looking through old posts. Then I realized it was because we had a hilarious group of ladies.

Nope 2 kids is for sure not newbie parenting status. How long have you been on TB, what brings you to the Parenting board?
I'm new. I'm Shauna, and I've been lurking (creepy, I know). I started over on TK, but have migrated a bit lately because it's been slow over there lately. I'm 23 weeks along with my first little one.
Let's see... I am an Assistant Manager at a used bookstore (although it's a chain with over 100 stores in the country). I read a lot. I like Big Bang Theory, The Glades, and Psych. My husband and I have been together for 8 years, married for 1 1/2 years.

I am Niki, I have a 17 month old daughter, I am alone in my office in the late afternoon with nothing to do but bump and I like to zone out to TB after my family goes to bed way too early for me!
We like creepers here. Welcome.
I am so not a newb; although my badge says otherwise.
Whatever, cheers ladies! (B)
I figured it was better than just jumping in. It kind of sucks though: either you jump right in without knowing everyone and feel like the new girll who sticks her nose in, or you creep for a while and feel like you "know" people and they think you are a freak when you ask them personal questions.
It's tough making friends.

Really? What made you pick this SN? Tell us more about your DD!
I'm almost done with my tall boy and I just laughed a little too hard at this.
I lurked quite a bit while we were youngsters on 1224, followed the herd to parenting, posted here and there and now work has gotten in the way. Total bummer!! Plus it made my head hurt to keep up with all the posts. Hopefully work slows down and I can focus more of my time on you lovely ladies because you are all very entertaining!
TB mobile seriously sucks!!
I don't feel new because I've been lurking on TB for a long time, but don't contribute often. I usually don't get on here until late in the day and usually what I want to say has already been better said by someone else. I sometimes think to myself that at the rate I post I will get to Bronze status sometime around when DS goes to college.
Like a PP said, I feel like I know some of you, but don't want to just jump into conversations like I know what I'm talking about. Sooo, turns out that I'm just as awkward in e-social situations as I am in IRL ones.

I'm a looooong time lurker. I'm like Fairynice and awkward in e-social situations. I'm pretty quiet IRL too, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised. I reply to posts here and there, but I haven't started a thread in ages, maybe since TK.
Anyway, I have one DS who is a little over 2.5 and another LO on the way who is due on DS's third birthday. I've mostly lurked on the age boards when DS was that age, then followed over from 12-24 during the great migration. DS was over 2 by then anyway. I'm hoping to lurk less and perhaps even reach bronze in 2013. We'll see.
I thought it was funny.

I became a mom in July and still scared sh!tless. I generally lurk a lot and post seldomly due to the fact I'm terrible at online conversations and tend to either sound really sarcastic or really insanely idiotic.
Hopefully participating here will break those two. And maybe learn a thing or two.
I hold on so hard and pray that I won't say something wrong. I look at the stars and dream that the universe was ours.
I am not a newbie I joined the knot when planning my wedding in 2003 then the nest then the bump. I am not an avid poster, until recently. I am a SAHM of 4. All the craziness around here makes me wonder sometimes. Seeing posts on this board and the SAHM board makes me feel a little better.
I mostly lurk and have no idea how to even make a siggy.

I've been around since 6-9 months, I think. I'm mostly just a lurking lurker. When I do post I am ignored about 99% of the time.
Ah well, when I do have a chance to get on here it's pretty damn entertaining. I like it here and hope to start posting more.
I never had an into post here on parenting. I have a 6 y/o DD and a DS that will be 2 in a few months.
ETA: I hate smores poptarts but buy them for the kiddos bc I know I wont touch them. Cupcake poptarts are amazing though.
I recognize your SN. I hope you'll stick around.
Hey!! Nice to see you around here! Your DS is getting so big!
I love your sig pic and your kid looks just like the one in the movie.
Thank you! Your LO is too, what a cutie
Thank you, he also acts just like him.
I'm ihearttab, tab is my husband of 4 years. We have a 14 month old DD named Lucy, a 4 year old colliepointer mix named Basil and a 10 year old cat named June. We live in a tiny town with flighty ISPs so I mainly post from my cell. Please to excuse all grossly exaggerated figures and a sad lack of parentheses in my posts.
Ex: It took me 23 minutes to write this. [It didn't take 23 minutes, promise.]
<-------------------- Don't be fooled by the newbie status. This isn't my first rodeo...
:::waves to everyone who knows who I used to be:::
I love Kerrville. If I could choose any place in Texas to live, it would be there, I think. And welcome!
Did you have a different SN before? I could swear I recognize your DS from a siggy somewhere.
Yay! I'm glad you made it over! I hope the parenting talk doesn't bore you, we try to keep it to a minimum.
Thanks! My husband was born and raised here and he stole me from Austin about 5 years ago. It's really a great place. Where in Texas are you?
I'm not a newb, I'm an enigma shrouded in mystery.
I actually know who a lot of you ladies are, but you probably wouldn't remember me, (including you manatee) I watched, mostly quietly as all of you were molded into the internet persona the evil puppet master so painstakingly created.
No but seriously, I was around for awhile in first tri, migrated to an offboard, then the board turned into Panem, and I fled to the district we all previously thought had been destroyed. (Aka Thebump) but I still clearly care about my kid more than any of you bishes, because I barely ever post.
I'm in Dallas for now, looking to move south, near Victoria.
