Fit Mommies August 15th

[lorig]

Hi Everyone, it's good to finally meet you...this is Abigail Ann or you can call me Abby. My Mom said it looked like the other thread was long enough, so she asked me to start a new one...I'm very advanced for my age.

My Mommy has given me a kiss and hug from each of you. She told me how all of you have been praying for me and for her. We are so grateful for your prayers and sweet words of encouragement and blessing.

It took me quite a while to get here, but I'm so grateful to God to be here and finally put faces to all those voices I've been hearing everyday. I love my family and my Mommy said to please let you know that she loves all of you.

Love,
Abby, for my Mommy (Lori) - PS Julianna, I hear that you and I are less than a day apart in age! How cool is that??? I'm thankful to the Lord that you made it here safely too.

Abby - You ARE quite advanced for our age. No wonder it took you so long to come, you hands must have been HUGE! lol

Lori - Still praying for your recovery. Enjoy your baby moon! Hugs

Ah, welcome, Abby!!! It will be interesting to have you around!! Thanks for starting our new thread too! What a sweet baby girl!

Hey---I can't wait to get caught up! I figured I'd missed a lot over the weekend! Two new babies! Yahooooooo!!!

Sitting here and listening to the sound of the rain---YAY!! But am feeling "sick".... I wonder if it's from doing only 1 workout last week???

We are trying to decide when we can go to Maine for our September trip and it all depends on FM!! I'd like to be around for at least 2 weeks after her baby arrives to be able to help. Poor girl---everyone is telling her what would be good times for her to deliver!

Have a great day, everyone!

LOL Jennifer! Yes, with my first one due around Christmas, I had all kinds of people telling me when I should deliver, and how that wasn't a good time to "plan" a baby (we didn't "plan"--we had infertility and miscarriages before so we didn't care WHEN a baby came! )

Hmmm....does this mean we might have to push our trip out a little later?

Welcome Abby and Julianna!

Hoping to see the chiro today and get this hip back in place so I can get back to tapping!

[Nikki Dawn]

How are you doing , TRisch? I am hoping the chiro will help you feel alot better!

Abby, Welcome! You definetly are advanced for your age! Tell your mommy to take care of herself and we are praying for her!

Jennifer, hope you are feeling better soon. Hugs! FM can have her lil one whenever it wants to come! That is so awesome to have you to help! I am sure she feels your blessings!

Hope everyone is having a good day. We have been through quite a bit of attack. Needless to say we signed my ds up for school and need prayers for Wednesday morning. I really hate to unload personal garbage so I will leave it at that! I am sure the Lord knows when you pray! We are dreading this whole week and will be glad once it is done!

Have a good day to everyone!

Joni, how are you doing? Is life getting any better?

[Mom7plus]

Julie and Lori -- CONGRATULATIONS!!
Your daughters names are beautiful!! How nice to have two new girls here! I'm also glad you are both doing so well. Praise God!

Hi everyone! I have been trying very hard to stay off the computer and get things done. It's been working, but I miss all of you. I have been praying for you (all of you) when you come to mind. God has brought many, many of you to mind many times over the past few weeks!

We are all doing ok. The normal huge family, lots going on stuff. I guess!

My time is out -- children need me. I don't know anything that has been going on except the new babies, so I will keep praying for all of you. Maybe I'll find time to get back on here soon.

Miss all of you.
-Carol

It's great to hear from you, Carol! We love to have you pop in and would enjoy catching up with you whenever you have the time.

Jennifer, whenever FM's little one arrives is God's perfect timing! Don't you just love the comments by "well-meaning" people? LOL! I don't mind when people say, "have the baby on my birthday!" But, other comments put pressure on...I think sometimes people just don't know what to say, when a simple, "God bless you and Congratulations" or "I'm praying for you!" would suffice...

I'm enjoying my "babymoon." It's more of a challenge with this one, because in all previous years, my dh had a week off of paid leave to be with me and help following each birth. This time, he's having to work odd-jobs and just trying to keep the bills paid. I know it's hard for him, because he'd rather be here...I'm very grateful for all the work he's doing and for the older ones as I couldn't do this without them!

Blessings in Jesus,
Lori

Hi Everyone! Can I join you? I have been doing T-Tapp on and off since 2007. I am getting back to do it. I just joined the Renew University with Charlotte.

[WendyD]

LoriLou- Hi, welcome and jump on in!

[just7]

Glad to have you, Lorilou!

I've prayed, Wendy! Praying that all goes well.

It's okay when others are trying to let you know when your baby should be born...but when your own FATHER tells you that it would really help the REST of the family to have the baby THIS week (1-2 weeks before your due date) so that everyone (Mom, included) can go on the September trip....it's a little hard to take!

Actually, she is fine with it. She knows, better than anyone else, that this baby will arrive when it is supposed to. And I'm not even going to stress over whether or not I should go to Maine with the rest of the family if the baby hasn't come yet.

Great to "see" you popping in now and again, Carol!

I'm getting concerned about Joni, too. She is usually on at least once a day and there has been nothing since everyone was so sick and she wondered if her dh had a blood clot! Praying for her and her family....
