You're up so early!

I had a doll named Tina when I was little, I used to like that name I guess, that's all I remember smile

happylib · Guru

Good morning!

I made up the name for a girl, which was Shavalee. I have no clue where that came from.

I didn't have a name for a boy and that's kind of funny since I had my ds first and didn't have E until almost 18 years later.

Sonya any idea when you'll hear back from your co-op about the apartment. Sorry if you told us and I missed it.

Irina I know Christopher is so much bigger now (and every bit as handsome), but he is so adorable in that siggy.

I had Brooke Alexandra and Victoria were big. I had a Cabbage Patch doll named Brook so I was on a kick with that name for a long time. I cannot recall any boy names.

Sonya · Guru

I loved Stacey, Tracey, Debbie, Rose...

can you tell I was a child of the 70s?

Sara · Guru

good morning all!!

my names were brittany and andrew. that i remember. i know i was always changing them.

Sonya · Guru

Libby, no idea about the co-op. the apartment is for sept 1st but who knows. They don't NEED to fill it right away.

The next step will be to get an interview. The committee would have someone from the house, someone from the membership team, and the co-op president. Getting all of those people to agree on a time can be crazy.

There is another place and we are going to take a look at that whenever we can arrange it so we can double our luck. I really want the one we went to see but we'll take what we get.

Ahhhh. I just want this figured out.

I talked to a realtor yesterday and he is going on vacation but he is coming to see the house on the 21st. That is good since there are some very important things I want to do before he comes.

gm ladies! :)

i wanted to name my daughter rebecca lyn and call her becca (remember that show life goes on? i was obsessed with the girl on there!) and a boy christopher todd and call him todd. neither one stuck! :)

i always wanted people to call me jennifer though. i HATED my name so when we played house or whatever, i always wanted to be jennifer. :)

sappy · Guru

good morning!

i can't remember any names confuse

Cuppycake · Guru

Landon and Hunter. And in the unfortunate event (in my mind, at the time, since my mom kept telling me how much I was going to get back everything I gave her, ten-fold), I ran through a long list. Rachel was one of them.

I'm still beyond uber obsessed with the name Landon. I can remember naming babies that when I was 2-3 years old.

Dddiii · Guru

Good morning everyone!

I wanted to call my kids Samantha (Sam for short... loved Who's the Boss) or Jackie.

I also made everyone call me either of these if we were pretend playing.

I'm not positive on a boy name, but I think I liked Max. :dunno

Leah's AV makes me want a cupcake every time I look at it.

I got McD's breakfast this morning. Now I must stop the junking out and get back on track! I always give myself 24 hours from my appt. time to do as I please. The last 24 hours I've been baaaaaaaaaaaad. LOL Yum Yum Yum.

Jennie · Guru

I didn't have baby names for children I wanted to name when I was little, little.

Well, I had a rabbit named Penelope. I liked that name. And a crow named Lily. I loved the name Lily and actually considered the name but our BFFs' oldest daughter is named Lillian nn'd Lily so we can't use it-

But when I was a teenager I had Jaguar Hans for a boy and Victoria Avonleigh for a girl.

Actually- DH likes Victoria and I do too but we couldn't agree to disagree on how to use it whether it would be a first name or a middle name so.....................................

we might use it when it comes time for #3 'cause I convinced him that during my appt. in sept that i'm going to talk to my doctor on how to prevent another pregnancy like w/ adelaide and if it can be done- we'll be ttc in summer 2012

I also had Thomas for a boy at some point in time....

Had to butt in to say please don't say you'll take what you can get!! You don't have to rush, right, so why not take a few extra weeks to find something you will be really happy with? I'm not saying make it months and months but you do want to be able to stay there and be happy for while, right?

OK. Stepping off my soapbox now.

I really really really hope you end up getting the one you saw and loved! I also hope they don't make you wait much longer to find out!

On a side note, I think this emoticon is just very very sad.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PENELOPE!!!!!!! That came on a little bit later in life for me, but then I named everything I can Penelope.

Penelope the french horn. Penelope the lacrosse stick. Penelope the plate.

Yes, I'm a little weird. LOL

After I met Mike and he found out how much I loved the name, he made sure to put his foot down right away about naming a daughter Penelope.

I kind of agree b/c it may become Penny. That is a name I can not stand.

What was that cartoon that had that Penny girl on it and in the beginning her eyes were big pennies? Was it on PeeWee's Playhouse or something?

I don't have a 5 year old yet but unfortunately even I remember myself being like that for a while.

We are all in trouble!

Was this it?

I've had Penelope since I was 6. She was awesome at keeping the monsters away. I want to get her back and clean her up and repair her a little so that when Adelaide is older she'll have that same comfort.

So last night I was busting it on the Wii Fit (The Hula Hoops are quite the work out) and I was wondering just how accurate the scale on it was. When I weighed myself on it and then got weighed a couple days later at the doctor's office it was off by 2lbs but the Wii Fit adjust for clothing, etc...

Last night I had DH weigh w/o Adelaide and w/ Adelaide and sure enough! She's 10lbs 1oz according the Wii Fit b/c he stepped on and it noticed he was 10.1lbs heavier than when he stepped on 30 minutes prior.

She's so different than Colin. He was never 10lbs when he was 5 weeks old! He was so tiny when he was born! This is so different for us!

When my mother came out- I asked her and my sister who she looked like and my mom said, "You. You looked exactly like that when you were born only with red hair. She's you."

DH might get his wish after all- a child that looks like me but acts like him- so far, so good. Right from the start Colin was all me- had to have all the attention all the time (hasn't changed). Adelaide is very quiet.

Forgot to add that is so exciting about TTC again! I needed at least a year after having a newborn to even think about TTC again. LOL
