SEPT/OCT/NOV 2014 Roll Call!

Thanks NCBeachy and Kittybear. No I don't do it professionally. It is just a hobby of mine. Over the years I get a little crazier with each one. These take all day for me to do so it isn't something that I do except for my kids and on occasion a close friend or family member.

Last time I was pregnant it was how I told my Mom we were pregnant and having a girl (all at the same time). It was so much fun. I took a heart shaped cake to her work for Valentines day (she thought I was just being nice) but when I put the cake down and she read it I thought she was going to cry. She just kept asking everyone for a knife and couldn't wait to cut into it. Of coarse when she cut into it, it was bright pink!! It was an awesome surprise.

Glad you're feeling better in time for your trip especially!!
Gender doesn't matter. Gender doesn't matter. Gender doesn't matter. Wish it were that easy heh?

Now I just buy store bought things. :(

I am feeling a bit better now that I am nearing 12 weeks. I have been so busy with so much to do getting ready for our trip. It is coming at the perfect time too since I am starting to really stress about the gender. When I first got pg it wasn't such a big thing, but as I am getting further along, I am really stressing about it and I want to stop!!

Sorry everyone is still feeling so bad! I know it is so hard!!

Those cakes are amazing!!! I'll order a Lego one for my sons 7th this June thx;)
I can't believe you did that while sick!! I don't put much effort into anything anymore I'm afraid. One day, when I feel better... Maybe lol

Sorry to intrude ladies but that is so disappointing. Like healthy babies aren't enough for other people?? I wish gender didn't matter too.
If/when I am in your situation I don't think I will tell anyone the gender except Dh and my best friend, and of course all my online friends here at GD. I just don't think I can handle the comments after so many years of gender desire...congrats on your beautiful babies! Wish I was in this bunch....goodness knows I tried!

I think the same way it matters to us it matters to others. Nothing will ever change that! Even having strong gender desire I think it's a given that healthy is most important.

Wanting pink- your cakes are amazing!!!

Maybe the milk means something. I NEVER drink milk and since my bfp I actually have craved it and drank it a few times!!! Interesting a few others have similar cravings for it. - perhaps we need calcium!

Here are his cookies for school. DH and I dropped them off at lunch. We also brought pizza for a pizza party. He is turning 5 which is a big deal in preschool:) Superheros are all the rage at my house!!

Thank you so much for the complements on the cake! The kids really do love their cakes... it is one of the ways I try and make their birthday special for them.
