2,000 = Silver correct? I'm pretty darn close. Help me get there with an "Ask me anything?"

Purdy please!
Re: Silver?
2,001 technically
Hows the nauseousness?
When is your first appt?
Are you actually "ready" for #2? (I'm terrified at the thought!)

Yes, I should have this option. We'll discuss it at the first appointment, but the two surgeon that did my c-section are the two OBs that I will be seeing throughout this pregnancy and they used special stitching to close me up to give me a better shot at a VBAC and both said that I would be an ideal candidate for one. We're going to do whatever we have to try to make it happen because I really want to avoid surgery if at all safe and possible. Especially since this time around I'll be home with both Alex and the baby and if I have to have another c-section I won't be allowed to pick Alex up at all for several weeks while the incision is healing and the thought of that kills me, especially since he'll already be adjusting to the new baby and will be too young to understand why mommy can pick up the new baby and not him
I really really hope it doesn't come down to that but we'll cross that bridge when we get there.
LOL, no, have at it! Which cut are you going for? The bangs?
... what if I used a picture of your tattoo for inspiration? ?_?

haha, no. I'm too lazy to have bangs. but I want layers like yours:
We actually have a wedding to go to in MA on July 21st at the Harding Allen Estate in Barre, MA. How close is that to you? I don't want to go to the wedding at all because traveling with Alex was miserable the last couple of times we've gone somewhere longer than two hours away, but if we could turn it into a G2G I might agree to go. It's Joel's cousin's wedding and I've only met her once and he never talks to them so it's not like a close relative, so selfishly I don't really feel like it's worth the hassle of the travel to get there and back. We'll see....
LOL, again, which one?
The bird, the tree or the stars? :-P I have to get the tree finished still but now it'll be awhile again. I also want to change the flowers in it from pink to red which I kind of wish I had done to begin with but ah well. I also want to get my dead dandelion with the seeds blowing across, just have to figure out how to fit it into the scene so it doesn't look out of place.
da tree!
That one was always my fave.
I'm trying to get an idea of what I want my next one to be and that one always stuck in my mind. I'm creepy like that. ;p

According to GoogleMaps, that's only an hour and 40 minutes from Braintree! Cut that in half, meet somewhere between Framingham and Worcester, and I think we could have a decent GTG!

How is the house?
Will the new baby have its own nursery?
Stand up for something you believe in.
I'm good with that. Get rounded flowers though, not my pointy one, unless you like them. I wish I had gotten rounded petals so they look like real cherry blossoms instead of stylized ones. I still looooove it, don't get me wrong, but if I could do it over I'd have them red and rounded!
Like this:
Are you free that weekend? It would make Joel super excited if I said I wanted to go to this wedding (I told him he was welcome to go by himself lol).
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO -- thats the weekend I'm going to be in Maine! Why does everything have to happen during the same weekend?!?!

The house is coming along. We've working on the outside now. Baby will be in our room for the first while, since Alex is now 13 months and still sleeps in our room. It's a big room and his crib is on the opposite side of our bed and it's pretty rare that he comes into bed with us, he sleeps really well in his own crib so before the baby comes we'll transition him to the spare room to be his bedroom and baby will share with us. If it's a boy then Alex and new baby boy will eventually share a room. If it's a girl we're looking at some minor construction to add an additional "office" (aka: bedroom, but office for the permit reasons
) We've already started putting some money aside for that "just in case" and have friends that can help us with the addition should it come to that.
Booooooo!!!! Very lame! Now I have no motivation to go to the wedding and I'll have to stick to my guns lol. I keep telling Joel he'll have a great time with his family and I really don't mind if he goes without me. I don't know if he's going for it though.
And with this post. I should be silver. *Points to joined on date* Only took me nearly four years of posting lol.
ETA: Thanks for helping me reach that oh so important milestone ladies
