JoAnn,

Ok, how cute are those pictures? Thank you so much for sending them. And, I really want a digital camera, though I'm not sure if I'd ever figure out how to use it! LOL! Tessa is so adorable and looks like such a happy little thing. Question... when did you get her ears pierced? I loved the side view picture... her little earrings and hair looked so cute! Maybe it is time for another one!

JoAnn,

I had Olivia's ears done at 10 months and she barely flinched... and, we never had a problem with them. I'm thinking about getting Emma's done a little bit earlier than that. I'm still debating as to when. What dummies to wonder if little Tessa is a boy. Can't they look at those eyes and tell? Duh is right!

{{{HUGS}}}

Thanks sweetie, I think she is pretty adorable myself. I had her ears pierced at 2 months. I didn't want her old enough to fight or be tugging on them. I like to do it so that people know that she is a girl. Although some people still say "what a cute little boy" DUH!!!!!! lol

As for the digital camera, it's very easy to use, I promise. You can usually check them out before buying them at most major stores.

Love & hugs,

Jo-Ann

Jo-Ann, How did Tessa react when they pierced her ears? If I have a girl, I would like to get it done but wasn't sure when a good time would be and I don't know if I could take such crying without crying myself. Tessa definitely looks like a girl to me!!!

Tessa is so cute. I love her little teeth. I can't believe she is

almost a year old. Are you planning a big bash for her first birthday?

Janice,

Those rooms are actually my kitchen and family room - I love those colours too.

I'm glad you had a nice shower, sounds like you are off to a wonderful start.

Pam,

Thanks sweetie, she is my little cutie pie. She has six teeth now, but you could only see the bottom two. She is eating almost everything that we eat now, which makes mealtimes so much easier.

We are having a big birthday bash for her on November 24th. I always throw a big party on their first birthdays. And with Tessa (as with Casey) they are extra special, because I feel very fortunate to have them (my miracle babies).

Love & hugs,

Jo-Ann

I had 's done at about 8 mths and she screamed and cried. So with Sasha I had it done about a month and I found it much easier to calm her down. I guess it all depends on the child.

I think Tessa looks like a girl too, but she still gets mistaken occasionally. As for the ear piercing Tessa barely cried at two months. Sasha I did at one month, she hardly cried either. But at 8 months screaming and cried, it was horrible, that's why I did it earlier with the other two. It is emotional (at least for me), but it's worth it. I've heard of people getting their kids done at 4 or 5 and they will only let them do one. I figured this was a better alternative.

Love & hugs,

Jo-Ann

Jo-Ann, Maybe it is better to get them done earlier. I never really thought about that. I will just have to bring someone with me, so I can walk away when they do it!!!!!...or else I have a feeling mommy might cry....

JoAnn,

I really, really can't believe it's been almost a year that we were waiting for Tessa's arrival. Where in the heck does time go? Anyway, I hope her party is a blast and I want to see pictures of her smashing into her cake!

{{{HUGS}}}

[Guest guest]

Jo-Ann,

Tessa is so adorable. What a beautiful little girl. Watch out when

she starts walking - she looks very curious!

Sounds like her party is going to be great, how exciting that she is

1 years old, but sad that it went by so fast. Last year when I joined

the ep group, she was just born at the same time.

Kim,

She is already curious lol! She has been driving me crazy the last few weeks. She loves to climb and will attempt to get up on anything. Everytime she gets close to a piece of furniture the leg goes up and she tries to pull herself up. I had to hide all the stools and storage boxes that I have in my office. I found her up on one of the storage boxes the other day. It was scary because she could have fell against the desk and it has sharp edges. Another day someone forgot to put up the gate (not me) and we found her upstairs in the master bedroom with Casey (he was playing Nintendo). She is already getting into everything, I can only imagine what she will be getting into once she is walking and has better reach.

I think it's only a matter of weeks, she is standing completely alone for a long time and has attempted to take a step, won't take her long to figure it out lol!

Just now she is playing in my office, she found the diaper rash creme - it is everywhere - I have to run - lmao.

Love & hugs,

Jo-Ann

Jo-Ann,

That is funny, it sounds like you are going to, or already do have

your hands full. Little ones always keep you on your toes. I love

that they are so curious, but it gets tiring. Tessa probably will do

things faster and be into more stuff because of her older brother and

sisters, we found that with my neice. She did nto even want to play

with baby toys, she wanted the older toys because that is what

everyone else was playing with.

I tell my dh I can see right now in Christians face is he going to be

into everything! I can just tell.

jo-ann,

well we are 7 days past O and still well above the cover line of 97.4...

they have been going up and down ...

98.0, 98.2, 98.0, 98.3, 98.0

is this normal??

I have been having some sharp pains on my left side and it is making me nervous. I am 99% sure I am NOT pg and the pain is just probably the cysts.

I really have no symptoms except utter exhaustion and constipation but these are also symptoms of my chronic illness...

So you want another one?/ Space it right and we can be pg buds together!!

Love,

lisa
