stopping in to say hello
I just wanted to stop in and say hello. This is the first time I have been back on here since Kylie passed. It is just too hard to see all the pg talk, birth and twin talk...so I stay away and immerse myself in facebook! Thank you all who posted wonderful supporting comments way back when. It's hard to believe the Kiptyn was 5 months yesterday and it has been almost 11 weeks since the worst day of my life. Kiptyn is doing ok, he has shallow breathing so he is setting off his monitor and giving us a nice scare. He is also a lil chunker! He weighs almost 20 pounds now! So much for me having a small baby. We take one day at a time and I am very thankful that I have Haley and Kiptyn to keep me going and living in survival mode. Not sure what I would do if I didn't have them.
Congrats to those who have has babies and good luck to those having babies coming up!
I started a new blog if you all want to see pics, etc. It is www.thetrieufamily.blogspot.com
Take care!
Re: stopping in to say hello
I'm so glad to see your post today! I've thought about you. I'm not on Facebook, so I'm not up to date as others may have been. I know that it may not be easy stopping by here, but when you're able to, it will be wonderful to have you back again. Thanks for checking in and I look forward to another post from you in the future.
A few wks ago, I offered 2010 Hawaii calendars to the ladies here because I had some extra ones (go back a few wks to a previous post). I'd love to send one for you. I have 2 left. It has beautiful pictures of HI. If you'd like to have one, send me an email at Kalani.hawaii@yahoo.com and where you'd like me to send it.
P.S. When I go to the address on your blog, it isn't your blog for some reason. I've tried several times.
Welcome back! It is so hard to come back I know but all of these ladies myself included are here to support you.
You sound like you are doing as well as can be expected.
The picture of all of your children is just beautiful
Take care!
Kalani--Ill shoot you an email. Try taking out the www to get to the blog, maybe thatll work.
ECU--I started ready your blog yesterday....kinda cool about your scholarship! That must really help. Also congrats on your pg! I dont know how you are surviving as MG was your first/only. I think Id be balled up in a hole in bed and not getting out! I have respect for your and your dh.
Aloha! It's nice to "see" you here...
I think of you often, especially now that my Libby just hit 11 weeks. I admire your strength...and hope you'll post now and again here when you can. But I understand if it's too difficult.
I checked the link to your blog and it went to some online church site. Weird. Maybe I'll try again.

I've been thinking about you too and wondering how things were going. You strength is amazing! I can not imagine how you are feeling or what you are going through. I think about you often and wonder how things are going. We're glad to see you post and hope you'll post once in awhile just to say hi and give us an update.
I tried too to go to the blog even with the www and the internet church or something came up... I was hoping to see some pics of your little ones
I think about you often - we were over at the Fedex/Kinko's over by you last week, but it was late - how convenient that they are open 24 hours, huh? Oy! I've been following the blog. Hope Kiptyn is doing better - and Haley sounds like she is definitely keeping you busy!
You amaze me with how strong you are! You are an inspiration for me whenever something goes amiss and I think I can't take it anymore - screaming in the car, fighting sleep, all that stuff. Miss you
It is so nice to see you on here again
Totally understand about it being hard though-- the baby talk has taken over the board... even I need to take a break from it and I have a baby & add to the madness!
I admire your strength ... hope we see you around here more often
CLICK for blog

leslie-
good to see you too back on the boards too. yes, you are amazingly strong. so amazing how your little ones are growing so quickly. hope to see more of you xoxo
I've been wondering how you were doing lately - thank you so much for stopping by! I know that things must be unimaginably difficult...you are an amazingly strong woman.
I also understand why it's hard to come to the board right now, but I hope you know that you're always welcome here!
(((hugs)))
It is very, very difficult. Being pregnant again is a daily mental tug of war that most people could not even fathom but with the support of the wonderful ladies on the boards, friends, and family I'm making it. My doctors are amazing too.
Having the scholarship really helps a lot too.
Even with all of that it is still really hard. I'll continue thinking of you guys. ((big hugs))
