Due in March/April/May 2013 Roll call!

[Brandles]

We let our youngest make the FB announcement, since he's never gotten to do it before.

Attachment 6498

This is so adorable!!!!!

Rosie- wow!! That would be a very awesome surprise! How would you feel about twins? This little guy still doesn't have a name yet, so that would be pretty easy to overcome for us lol. We just can't agree!

I think it would be cool to have my own business too! I do one of the direct sales kind of things right now, but probably won't stick with it. I would love to have an in home/portable ultrasound business once I get my license! I think it would be great since we will be staying in the military for the next 12 years. Here, the closest elective place is about 45 min away, so it would probably work out well in this area! Just a dream of mine

I wish we had someone here who offered that!

My 14 week scan was done by a lady who owns one, and I had never heard of it before! I think it would be so much fun!!

Y'all are not ridiculous. I know I will be the same way, no matter what they say at my 16 week. I'm almost afraid to find out because I know that hearing boy will crush me.

3m, I've owned a portrait studio for forever. Well, over a decade. Lol. This used to be an awful time of year for my family because I was never home and when I was, I was on the computer and in a bad mood. And I didn't want to decorate for the holidays because I had been doing "holiday" since October. Now I just take 3-4 sessions a month and am much nicer to be around. Lol.

Oh man... amazing. Photography is one of my pure joys, but I was hopelessly stuck in the past with my 1980 35mm. I got a Canon 600D (since I live so far away from family, etc) and I have now had it for over a year. I STILL DON'T KNOW HOW TO WORK IT! So many options. Depresses me. I want to be fully enjoying it but I get stumped on how to change/alter settings. :/ Are you familiar with DSLR's? Care to give me some pointers? I don't like to shoot automatic but there is just so much I've tried to wrap my head around, and with a toddler I've not yet managed to. I keep telling myself I'm going to take a weekend course just to help me get to grips with my machiiiiine but haven't had the money/time yet. Sigh.

Shell- that announcement is adorable !!

I actually would be in heaven if there was another baby in there because then my fate would be decided and I could be done. We are only having four and I am losing sleep trying to figure out what to do for number 4. It would be icing on the cake if it was twins and one was a girl! haha I highly highly doubt it though and I highly doubt they got the gender wrong either. I am sure of one thing though, if this is boy 3 this is my Teddy :-) My grandpas name is Theodore and he has alzheimers and it's starting to get bad, this is one last gift I can give him before he doesn't even know who I am anymore So maybe in the end this boy was meant to be for my grandpa, I like to look at it that way anyhow.

[Rosie85]

We are also giving him the middle name Raymond which is Dh's grandpas name that just passed a few weeks ago

[Shellbelle]

Oh, Rosie, that is so sweet!

Suregena, I'd be happy to help. I'm a Nikon girl, though, so I can give you general digital tips and then guide you to some Canon resources. There IS a learning curve with digital, but if you're coming from film you already have some of the basics down.

[Rosie85]

I have a nikon d3200 and I suck with it...never got to learn and only use auto! so embarressing !!!
