Sara - have updated you on the AOS sheet Yippee!! I love our spreadsheet!! Does that make me really sad!?!?

Jeraly, you are so sweet you always just make me smile!!!! and no it doesn't make you sad, it makes you wonderful and very helpful as I am obsessed with with spreadsheet checking and am grateful to you for making one so that I can feed my beast and speaking of the spreadsheet, can you update it again please?? We just received notice for our biometrics appt for both the AOS and the EAD.... its April 3rd 11AM here in Seattle!!!!! I am soooooo excited to be on our way :dance: :dance: I know its still a really long road but it feels like we are finally making real progress! YAY!!!!!

and since I am in a celebrating mood and feel like I can share things in this forum (sorry if this is TMI) that I can't say outloud in my 'real life' I just have to share that we have decided to stop using birthcontrol and let things 'happen' I am so excited I think I just may burst. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh I just can't believe all the amazing things that are happening in my life! what did I ever do to deserve all this happiness??? I don't want to obsess or track anything, I just want to let whatever is going to happen, happen, you know?? but I do have to say I feel soooo excited and soooo warm and fuzzy and soooooo close to my husband that I have these crazy happy butterfly feelings and a really stupid grin on my face!

somebody pinch me!!!!! I love everyone and everything right now :luv: :luv: :luv:

Oh Sara that is awesome!!! Jeremy and I want to wait a little before we go down that road so we can just enjoy having time for us - plus we want to get into a family home before we start a family!! We're only going to be renting somewhere cheap to start with so we want to get a bit more settled. But OMG!! I think I might have to start a July Filer baby tab If anyone has any ideas how to set it out then that would be soo cool We can have user name, conceived date, due date, birth date, boy/girl, name of baby or something? How does that sound? OOOhhh I want babies now just so I can make my new spreadsheet

Ok - now I *know* I am sad

That's wonderful news! I am so pleased that things have happened so perfectly for you. Best of luck!!!

BABBLES!!!! What are you doing still here!! Ok so it was over 12 hours ago but still!!!!

Ok - I conceded... I made a sheet called "JBP" (July Baby Progress) Oh that just makes me feel so happy and fuzzy as well

love the new spreadsheet!!! oh I can't wait to be on it! we have been wanting to try for about a year, but between the immigration stuff and living between two countries, (we flew back and forth every month for a year) it just didn't seem like a great time, but now we are settled, getting more so everyday and just figured its time to see what happens! now I have to RELAX and enjoy the journey!!!! of course we are also getting our house ready to put on the market to buy our new family home (we found one we love and are thinking of having it built - its a new community, you choose the lot and the floor plan and then get to pick out all the details, colors, floor, trim, etc - but it wouldn't be ready until late fall) so we have a lot going on!

so is it just me or are there others headed the family way?? I know many of us are in different life stages (which is something I love about our group!) anyone else have big life plans/goals for the next year??? oooooh, this might be a fun topic.......where do you hope/plan to be one year from now?? please share!!!

for us.....in a perfect world, we would be moved into our new home, either just about to give birth or with a new infant, and planning our first trip back home to london to visit since the big move over to the US! what about you all???

Oh the house thing sounds wonderful! How do you even get to do something like that? Is it expensive? Jeremy and I want to build our own home as well but financially we are in no position to buy anything decent for a good while We'll prolly rent cheap, buy cheap then get something we actually like - a lot of moving around but I am hoping we can be settled sooner rather than later - I just want to stop and relax as well now without having to worry about moving and saving and money and all that BS

Can't wait to add you to the new spreadsheet either!!!! I am thinking of highlighting the details in pink or blue depending on whether it is a boy or girl

Well, we have finally completed the AOS packet! It would have been Tuesday, but we've both been so ill this week that it simply didn't happen. It goes out in the mail tomorrow!

As for goals, we're currently making repiars/updates to my house so we can sell it and buy something a bit larger in a better school district. And since I have 3 kids and Griff has 2 adult children, there will be no babies for us! Good luck to those trying! Enjoy!

I've updated your AOS thingy as well Hehehe

Hahaha - it's not like I have a husband to keep me occupied yet! Especially when he gets called into work early

YAY!!! Oh that will be wonderful! Have they been to the US before? You must be so excited Mum is still looking at trying to come out in August but the flights alone are over £600!!

YAY!! I was going to have cuddles with Jeremy tonight (that is, reading "together" in bed while on the phone) but he got called into work - grrr Everyone here is sick as well - sneezing, coughing, sore throats... yuck

[*julez* 124]

I am just finally getting better after a solid week of illness. Griff had it too. UGH! It was awful. Thankfully, the kids have been unscathed by it thus far.

All it takes is one person to come into the office whilst sick and it spreads like wildfire. The lesson: Stay away from the sickos peeps!

[BabyBlueSusie 1]
