Jacque, Oh my gosh! You have to pm me about Aalissa. I can't believe what happened---even though I don't know. I posted the part about us being inner-racial for Aalissa's benefit, b/c I wasn't sure if she knew, not you. I knew that you knew. We're so goofy! Pm me, I can't wait to read it. I'm going to check my pm box now. The computer might run out of time on me, so if I don't get back today, I'll try to soon, and love ya'! Congrats on being an aunt, what a little miracle! Alisha

Alisha: No, I do not think so. Maybe she is just MIA again. I will check my old email account and see if she has sent me anything lately.....
Emily: I sent you an email, but I am not sure if you got it. It was a while back.... I have changed my email address. It is awesomemommy@gmail.com I will write more later. I have to finish getting dressed. Right now I am in my under ware and I have kids that will be here in about 5 minutes.
EMAIL FROM EMILY!!!!
Hey, girl! I've been trying to post to you, but it won't let me. You know how computer illiterate I am and I don't know what to do. Please forward this to Alisha as well. It sounds like everything is going well with you!!! I can't believe you're that far along already! I am dying to hear how your next appointment goes and really dying to know what you're having...I'm going to go crazy if you wait! I hope you're feeling better. I am praying that you're getting your energy back and no more nausea. I am sure that Kailey gets more and more excited every day! Alisha, I can't believe Yesi is 4 months already! Time sure flies, huh? Please send recent pictures! And way to go with licensing!!! Also, I am so impressed that you guys speak both languages to the girls. We actually have a lot of Latino friends here and we beg them to speak Spanish to us when they're with us to help us learn it. We are dying for Scottie to learn it!! Also, my parents are in Costa Rica right now for 3 months taking Spanish lessons. My father has been learning for years because he does a lot of work in Mexico, Ecuador, and Spain, but they wanted to be immersed in the culture so they'd learn faster. They are LOVING it. Everything here is going well. I have still only gained 19 pounds...woo hoo!! But, you'd never believe it, my belly looks ENORMOUS!! I'll take pictures soon and send them. He's is kicking and moving like crazy and I'm getting tired and uncomfortable again. I'll be 28 weeks on Monday. My next appointment is in 2 weeks, I'll be 30 weeks by then. After that I go every two weeks...I can't believe it! I also asked her what the chances are that I'll go early are since I went into labor with Scottie at 36 weeks and after bed rest and such, had her at 38 weeks. She said it's not a given, but likely. And that as long as I'm at least 36 weeks, she won't stop my labor. Which means, I could feasibly have this little man in 8 1/2 weeks! I'm kind of freaking out because I really need to get work in order before I'm gone...not to mention we're in the middle of a HUGE house renovation that is nowhere close to finished. Also, my sister-in-law is asking if she can move here...and stay with us for 2 weeks until she finds an apartment. And his family wants to come and visit in November and December. Ughhh...how stressful. Scottie has been busy growing up. She's now sleeping in a "big girl" bed and going in the potty pretty well, except when we leave the house. But, she's learning. It's like all of a sudden, she's a little toddler! Well, I miss you girls and can't wait to hear from you! I love you both! Em

This has been copied and pasted, I am having a hell of a time catching up today... the good news is that this is my last day of summer care... school starts on MONDAY!!!!
LOOK AT MY TICKER, MY BABY IS IN THE 4TH BOX!!!!!
Kailey's school open house was really cool last night. We really like Kailey's teacher... she seems awesome. There are also two 3rd grade teachers there from Visitation (they started working at Irving last school year) and they both said Kailey's teacher was a really good teacher. Plus all of the teachers in each grade work with all of the kids.... so Kailey will also be working with the Teachers that used to work at Visitation. We also looked at Joe's room(my brother) and met his teacher, his class is right below Kailey's so she thought that was cool. We also looked in Cole's class room (a day care kid that is in the second grade) and said hi to his teacher, he is on the opposite side of the building as Joe and Kailey. I was really nervous, but by the time we left I knew that we made the right choice and that Kailey is going to like it there. Plus, there are 5 kids in Kailey's class that she knows in passing, so that will help her get adjusted to everything new.
Mike got me a DVD burner for my birthday.... now I can make the video at home instead of going over to our friend Chip's house. It will make things so much easier! I also got Remember the Titans (next to Hoosiers this is the best sports movie ever) and the 6th Harry Potter book in paper back. The biggest surprise was the heart monitor, he bought one and I was soooo excited, but it does not work, so we have to exchange it for another one. Bummer.
Anyway, it has taken me 3 hours to type this, I am going to post this now and then get to personals in a bit.
Jacque

Hi girls, Emily, I hope that you check this board so that you get this message even if you don't actually post here. I can't believe how far along you are. When is your actual due date? I thought it was in December of this year. I guess I was way off. Time is just flying for you then. Yesi and Abri are doing great. They are growing more and more every day. Abri turned 5 months old yesterday and Yesenia is 3 1/2 going on 13. She is so sassy all of a sudden. I am on Nutrisystem now. I've only been on it for about 2 weeks, but so far so good. I lost 4.5 pounds the first week, and am weighing in tomorrow. I'm going back to work on the 29th. ugh! Are you still working? How much time are you going to take off when West is born? Is Scottie getting excited? I miss you so much, please try to post here when you get a chance. Jacque- I can't believe your little baby is almost half way across the line. Before you know it, you will be on the last box. SECOND TRIMESTER ALREADY??? This is crazy. I miss you bud, but I have to go b/c it's my mom's bday and I only came on for a second. I'll try to get on here on Sunday. Take care girls, Love ya' both, Alisha

Alisha: Emily just sent me an email, I set up this buddy group so you do not have to be a member to post here.... so, Emily should be checking in soon. She also emailed me her belly pic, she is huge!!! I will email a copy of it to you later today. Emily: Ok, you are supposed to check in now!!! You need to update us on all that is new and exciting in your third trimester. As for me, I have a ton of Internet catching up to do. I fell behind this week because I spent the majority of my free time typing up my Maternity leave notice to all of my day care parents. That way they all know well in advance what my plans are when it comes to leave. I will be taking about 4-6 weeks off, unless I have a c-section. Which I am praying that I don't! I am feeling better, have not puked all week. My next appointment is in 10 days, and within 9 days from that I will have my big ultrasound..... so, within 19 days I will know if I am going to have a boy or a girl. Mike and I were talking about finding out the gender again yesterday and Kailey walked in. She told us that we are going to find out (we keep changing our minds) and that is all there is to it. She said she can not handle all of this back and forth about finding out the gender. Then she told us that our third baby's gender can be a surprise. Nice to know that she has it all figured out for us. Well, we have a soccer game to go to at 8am then at 10am we have a football game. Then it will be lunch...... after that Mike will take over the computer for several hours while he does his homework. He just got his grades in from his last classes and he still has a 4.0!!! I am so proud of him.... anyway, what I am trying to get at is that I will have to finish my catching up later today. I love you both! Jacque

Hi girls, Okay, I'm only able to post quickly, b/c I have to go get my students. I got my computer, but won't have internet hooked up until Oct. 25! Long story. Jacque, your belly is ADORABLE! I want to see Emily. When is she due again? I'm so CURIOUS! Everything okay here. Busy busy busy with school. Girls and Serge are great. Abriyel is sitting up now, and she got her first tooth. She's just darling. Yesi is taking swimming lessons now and loving it. She thinks she's such a big girl now. Take care girls, Alisha

Alisha: The following is an important EMAIL FROM EMILY!!!! I will post more later Alisha, computer problems are keeping me off the net for extended periods of time. I cannot wait till we can talk more often!
Emily: Your family is in my prayers, I just know that everything will be perfect with your little boy!
Okay, sorry for the mass email, but I don't have the energy to call everyone right now. We just thought we'd tell you guys what was going on so that you could be praying for us. We checked into the hospital on Monday morning in preterm labor and got discharged last night. I am home until October 2nd on modified bed rest and terbutaline. Everything looks fine with West. They actuallly did an ultrasound when we got there to measure him and they think he's already 5 lbs. 10 oz which is great. Then they gave me two steroid shots to help him finish growing in case he comes early. I am 34 weeks 3 days now so we need to make it until 36 weeks preferably. We're fine, just please be praying for Scott. He was already in the middle of a huge renovation upstairs and now he's kinda stuck. I can't drive, go upstairs, or really anything. So, we're trying to work it where he can take me to my mom's for the day with Scottie and she can deal with us so he can either work at home or at work. Anyway, that's all for now. We love you guys. We'll keep you updated! Thanks for the prayers. em and scott

Hey, girls! It is so great to hear from you, Jacque! And I am absolutely thrilled that you're having a boy!!! That will be so fun! Has your pregnancy been so different from Kailey's? I know this pregnancy was completely different than Scottie and I've always wondered if it's because it's a boy. I can't wait to see pictures of him! Your tummy looks great, by the way!! Alisha, I can't believe Abriyel is getting teeth and sitting already! Could that be possible? It seems like just yesterday that you were pregnant!!! Please send some recent pics of the girls. I'm dying to see how big they're getting! You are such a good mama and I'm so proud of you! Here's a little update on us: I'm still having contractions, just not more than 4 or 5 an hour mostly. Yesterday I was having about 6 an hour so they checked me back into the hospital only to tell me to double up on my terbutline. It seemed to help a little. Needless to say, I think as soon as I quit my meds I'll go into labor. At least I hope so. I'm feeling okay otherwise. I'm thrilled that I've only gained 28 pounds so far which is a major accomplishment compared to Scottie, so that's a huge positive. I have another appointment this morning. Hopefully she'll check me and I'll have made it past 2 centimeters. We'll see. Other than that, the plan I think is to stop the meds after Sunday and stop the bed rest and I'm praying that I'll go soon after. I'll be 36 weeks on Monday. What do you girls think? What are the chances that you think I'll have to wait a while longer? I miss you girls and can't wait to hear from you! I'm glad to be able to post again! Love, em

Hey ladies, sorry I was MIA for the last part of this week. I actually fell the other day and had some issues... nothing major, but I will fill you in on it later today. For now I gotta get some small things done around the house. I will post a complete update later today.
Talk to you soon!

Emily: Well, Monday has come and gone... I wonder if little West is here yet? I hope you are doing well, and I cannot wait until your next update. --- Yes, this pregnancy is totally different then when I was pregnant with Kailey. I feel so much better this time around, I was sooooo sick with Kailey I could barley do anything. This time I was sick, but only up until about 15 weeks... since then it has been smooth sailing, well other then the fall that is! Alisha: I miss you, check in!!!! Jacque
