Happy Tuesday, 2nd Tri mommies!! I hope you guys had a great weekend and a happy Easter for those who celebrate.
((big hugs)) to cdale86. You have our thoughts and prayers during such an incredibly difficult time!
Welcome to NDGOIRISH! Any other newcomers, post below and include your EDD, and I'll get you added to the list.
Farewell to nikkilou10! I think we may be losing a few more this week if they haven't already made the jump. We'll see you guys in 3rd Tri! Other graduates, please let me know below.
*****************************************************************************
As always, keep those appointments and updates coming and those Team Pink / Blue announcements rolling in!
QOTW: In light of Easter, do you have any traditions you hope to begin or continue with your little one(s)? It can be anything, not just holiday-related.
