Oh, has anyone used those "wall stickers" on a textured paint wall? My hubby is worried they won't stick, I think he's nuts (it is a very "shallow" texture, not like ****lies sticking out or anything...)
They should work, I have had the same concerns with some of the ones we sell at Michael's and everyone who has used them says they will work with a slight bit of texture. I think I'm going to buy a small pack and try them first.
Congrats, Yolanda!
My goals-
Earn a masters in neonatal nursing
Snorkel the great barrier reef
Adopt from S. Korea
Go on several more missions trips
Attend a Crossroads Discipleship Training School
Travel all the continents
Micah and I also have some joint ones, but they are kinda dull, lol.

I honestly have no idea what my long term goals are right now. Our retirement accounts are taking a serious beating, but when the babies are older I would like to perhaps work part time, if that's what works out for our family.
Congratulations, Yolanda! That's wonderful. 
Ladies, I am so embarassed. Nathan is currently the only boy in our weekly playdate group, and today he bit a little girl ON THE FACE. He didn't break skin, but her face swelled up good and she's gonna have a bruise. He hasn't bitten anyone in well over a month, and he only bit another child once before, and that was several months ago. I thought we were passed this stage.
But they were hugging and being sweet, and he just turned his head and clamped down.  And that wasn't all too. He was especially aggressive, pushing and pulling. He can plow over the little girls who are a good bit older then him. I do discipline, but it's such a work in progress. And today he seemed very off, he was chewing on his fingers and just didn't seem like himself. I told Nathan we're not going to get invited to play with kids anymore if he keeps this up.
Well, we're having our first rain in weeks, and we need it bad. That's a blessing.
Oh, the mom of the girl was very sweet about it, very understanding. But the girl's father doesn't work (doesn't really need to) and he was there, too. He's very protective of his little girl and was understandable ticked off.

Aww, that sucks, Ruth! If it were my daughter, I'd be understanding too because you did discipline him.

Thanks guys! Sorry, I posted that and then went MIA... I was taking my computer into town to get it fixed, then rushed around shopping and doing errands, then my friend came over, and now I think I ended up fixing my computer by myself! Score, saved $50 on computer tech! Now, as long as it doesn't happen again...
Jae, I'm feeling ok...it was "planned" so we're all good. Especially now that we're building the house and we'll have a bedroom!!
Oh, if anybody has me on FB, please don't mention anything there, I just took the test this morning, so my family doesn't know yet.

Kim, my mom's employer had a diapers & wipes party for her 3rd baby. She already had one of each, so diapers were the a way to go. I have so many girly clothes from my awesome SIL, and I'm getting a reclining swing lent to me, that what I mostly need is diapers myself.
We're reusing the crib, Nathan is moving to a twin that we already own, but we're buying a guard rail and shoving it into a corner of the room. He'll be able to get on and off from the foot of the bed, so it should be safe, even if it isn't a toddler bed. We already have bookshelves for his room. I have fabric for curtains and pillows.
All we'd like to have is a dresser for clothing storage, maybe a toy box and a little table with chairs for him and a friend to sit at. My baby is growing up!
How very exciting for Nathan! Just make sure that even though you've got the guard rail up you put some pillows or a fouton mattress (that's what we did for Hannah) by his twin bed, just in case he does fall out. And it might be a good idea to try transitioning him now, if you think he can handle it, before your daughter comes. He's going to test his limits with his new found freedom for sure. Do you and your dh have a plan of action on how you're going to handle Nathan's getting out of bed when he's supposed to be napping or sleeping at night?
CONGRATULATIONS Yolanda! How exciting! When is your first doctor's appointment? You and I will be due right around the same time.

We're still in the process of getting the room ready, but we plan to have him settled there before Christmas, and the baby is due in January. But Elizabeth will be in our room for a little while, anyhow, so it's not like she'll be moving directly into his old room.
About getting him to stay in his new bed? Well, I plan to have the room completely ready and have him play in in for a little while before we move to nighttime/naptime usage. Then I am already braced for a rough first week. We'll just have to be very consistent and understand that it won't be instantaneous process to have him sleeping in a new bed that he can actually get in and out of.

I hope to be homeschooling, having an organized house, and kids I like to be around. I'd like to be back in Pittsburgh and have friends we can hang out with... I'd like to be caught up scrapbooking and maybe have a small craft side business for fun...

Sure would be nice to not go to choir practice tonight...
