I'm from upstate New York. My name isn't Rhonda. It's Rondack, short for the Adirondack mountains where I like to hike.
I married my college boyfriend and followed him to the Caribbean where he went to med school. After that we bounced from MI to the DC area of MD and now live in western MA. Dh is currently an intern, so he's making crap money, paying off ridiculous student loans (we live to play the "how many houses could we buy with med school loans" game), and pretty much never home.
I love animals, even reptiles and rodents and amphibians. I'm unable to say no to an animal in need, and am more likely to sympathize with the spider than you if you find one in your house.
I'm all depressing lately because I've got hyperemesis and am finding it hard to remain chipper when much of my day is spent in the bathroom or throwing up in a convenient bush.
I first started posting back in April '11 before my one and done child was born in October of that year. MH and I moved to SoCal from IN right after she was born. We don't know anyone here and I'm still homesick even though we have lived here for a little over a year. I have my Master's in Environmental Science but I'm a SAHM. That sounds boring. Ask me anything and I'll tell you the answer.
I am 27, my H is 30, we have a 2 year old DS. We've been together for 12.5 years, married for 5.5 years... the majority of our dating relationship was long distance between CA and AZ, we met on the innanets as young teengers.
I work full time as operations manager and book keeper (..well..basically I'm the entire office by myself, so I do some of everything), for a tiny little up and coming packaging company. We sell boxes and pallets and plastic bags and foam and stuff.
I have my AA in Business, and I still go to school part time so I can finish my BA. I'm majoring in accounting (thinking about changing to a combo degree of accounting and finance...not a huge difference, but I'm really liking finance). Previously I was a music major but decided to switch.. I would say my hobby is playing and writing music, but I haven't been able to do it lately with all the busy-ness in life. In any free time, I usually just try to decompress in front of trashy TV or hang out with the husb.
That's the gist.... having trouble thinking of anything else remotely interesting I pretty much just mom, work (and bump of course), school, repeat.
I'm a SAHM with a DH, DS (8.5), DS (6.5) and DD (3 just 2wks ago). Spend my days trying to keep her out of things and my evenings helping with homework and either at tball/soccer. I don't trust people with my kids unless they're family.
@WarKitten413, I guess it is safe to assume that your weren't Catfished?
No I was not luckily! Quick gist of that story.. I was 13 when I first met him, he was...15 or 16 maybe? ...and at first it was just friendliness...playing online games (like yahoo literati and pool, etc), and chatting on IM, and emailing...then we became closer and decided we liked eachother and started our long distant relationship when I was a month shy of 15 (so young, I know)
8 months after that, our crazy parents acutally let us meet. I was 15, he was 18.... my mother allowed him to fly to AZ to meet me, under her supervision.... I was sooooooooo nervous in that airport waiting for him, but the instant we saw eachother and realized we were who we said we were, a switch flipped and I actually crossed the security rope to go over to him and we hugged for like 10 minutes. *cue gag-worthy cuteness*. All whilst my Mom was standing in the background with her arms crossed and an unamused look on her face of course.
BUT over the years, we had frequent visits back and forth (every school break or holiday), and got to know eachother's friends and family very well....so by the time I moved to be with him in CA 6 years into our relationship, I was pretty much already family.... and then we got engaged immediately and married a year after I moved. All is well.
Hello, sweetie. I'm a companion of the Doctor. Oh, wait... You mean really?
I'm 31. DH and I went to the same college and met online after we graduated. I'm in publishing, and DH is a digital engineer. DD is 7 months old, and she's awesome.
I'm dub wife. I'm 33 and dd is 2. She was born on our 3rd wedding anniversary. I work in investment/compliance and dh has a union job and an Irish accent. We live in northern nj and I'm contemplating going back to school to finish my degree but I no idea what I want to be when I grow up. I'm always on mobile so I just assume all your kids are adorable!
I'm 32, married with 2 girls (11.5 and 19 months). I've lived in Northern VA since I was 5. DH and I have been together almost 8 years, and married 1.5. We got married 3 days before DD2 was born. I love music, enjoy cooking and baking, and I laugh at my own jokes.

Hi I'm wiggys DH and I have been married for a little over 4 years. We met in middle school and "dated" for two years before I broke it off and then after high school we gotback together and have been together ssince. So about 6 years.
We have a daughter who is 18 mo. We also have a dopey pit bull who is 5 and a young cat that we have had for 6 months. I am a SAHM going to school online for my BS in Psychology and DH is a log truck driver.
I started out over on getting pregnant on the nest in 2010. Now I play on GPM and I am trying to be more active here. I started posting earlier this year but It is just so fast paced here sometimes I can't keep up so I just give out love tits!
Missyishere here. I'm a SAHM from BFE Iowa (born and raised right here in not river city). I'm a step mother to a near 11 y/o SD, and I have a 2 year old DD today, in fact. I am a nicey pants midwestern girl, but I can kick some ass if needed due to some MMA training. I'm also kind of the biggest perv in here.

I am 29 and live in New England with DH and my 16 month old DS. My degree is in English but now I work as a manager in insurance. I am a huge nerd. Not like a cool nerd. Like an insufferable, dresses up for the premiere of the Star Wars prequels, nerd. I also love football and beer, I am an atheist, and spanking is my parenting hill to die on (I'm against it).
I can't get the ticker to work, but I have two sons:
I'm 26, an Air Force brat so I lived all over. Met dh at fort hood, got married 8 months later, been married 6 years now. Went through a 15 month deployment and got out:) now we live in Tulsa and have ds who is almost 3, dd is 4 months. Two dogs, moose a Dane lab mix and nala a boxer German Shepard mix. Dh is an electrician and I stay home but clean houses when I can. I love Tim burton movies and most movies in general. Especially Disney/Pixar

I'm a 24 year old living in Portland, OR, native of northern California. I moved to Portland at 17 to go to culinary school (don't recommend it), and worked as a baker until 38 weeks pregnant with my 18 months old daughter. Now I SAH. I've been married for a little over 2 years, wasn't planning on getting KU 8 weeks before my wedding, my boobs barely fit. I met my H playing World of Warcraft, should anyone like something to make fun of me about. I have two pitbulls (see avatar) named Lilliput and Sarah.
Edit: Oh, and my name is Jessica, like about a third of the 24 year old women in the U.S.
Betty, 1 DD (Cora), 1 fur baby (Betty). Married for 16 months (but who's counting!) have lost 4 babies and been a part of the bump since 9/2011 when I joined TtCAL. Possibly 1&D pending some health issues. I'm 4'6'' and I suck at these things.
i am a 32 year old SAHM from upstate NY. DH and i met in 9th grade german class but did not start dating until the summer after our sophomore year of college. we wll be married for 8 years this november. we have 3 kids, DD1 is 5 going on 20, DS is 3 and DD2 is 5 months. i speak fluently in movie quotes and i love to drink wine.
I just turned 24, SO is about to turn 27 and little man is almost 9 months old. We were dating 4 months before I got pregnant. We have our rough patches but all is well overall. We both were born and raised here in NE Fl but I don't think we will stay here long term.
I SAH but I'm trying to go back to shook for radiation therapy or radiologic technology, whichever program I can get into. But I lost my financial aid because I've taken too many classes without getting a degree. I'm appealing it, so hopefully I'll be able to go back.
Besides bumping I like to work out, craft, and I love HP, Downton Abbey, Mad Men and GOT.
I was born in Romania and my parents won a visa lottery. We moved here when I was 12. I have a BS in Bio and a Masters in Curriculum and Instruction.
After college I worked at a med scool, first in a lupus lab and then cloning frogs. I had such a great undergrad experience that I thought the working world would be similar. I was wrong. I changed fields and taught 7th and 8th grade science for 2 years South of DC.
We moved to NY state to be closer to family. They're laying off teachers, so I didn't get a new job. Subbing doesn't pay enough for daycare.
We're moving again next summer in a university town and I'm hoping to change gears a bit and work at the university.
Oh, yeah, I have an adorable 2 year old girl that loves to giggle and sing, a supporting DH, and a 115lb golden retriever that makes a good nanny.
I'm a 29 yr old Canadian. Married to DH for 4 years. I have a 17 yr old stepdaughter, 12 yr old step son, 2.5 yr old son and 10 month old son. We are very busy right now. I had 4 losses before having my 1st son.
I'm a nurse and I'll be going back to work soon. I hate my current job but I've been suffering through it because the hours are best for my family. Recently DH has encouraged me to switch careers and I am working toward my lactation consultant certification.
I'm 28 and mom to one, soon to be two boys. DH and I are high school sweethearts and have been married for 7 years. I am in residency in Chicago for pediatric dentistry and am getting my masters.
Between classes, residency, 2 part time jobs, being a parent, being pregnant, and church responsibilities I have had to cut down on quite a bit of my bump time significantly. I hope to get caught up and can rejoin in on the fun more often soon.
