I have never started a thread before :dance: I think we are still tired from being sooooooooo excited for JustWaiting ( Jean & Mohammed !!!). I swear that was the best news we have all heard in a looooong time. You go girl :thumbs:

So why am I starting the thread ? I woke up at 4 am starving .. and here I am at 5 eating and on my computer. I sent my husband off to work and usually I go straight back to sleep but today I am eating. I am having for breakfast green apples with peanut butter ... yum :P

My pregnancy has been great so far .. I am almost in my third trimester and things have been great. Baby has been real active. I have had bad back pain but it comes and goes. My weight gain has been normal and no swelling or stretch marks (YAY!).

How is everyone today ?

Reunited and it feels so good ....

LB that's so funny about the apples as I have been craving the exact same thing lately. I am off to work this morning. I have been having contractions the last two days and am sort of just waiting for them to start really kicking in so we can go have this baby! Hopefully he'll come before the new year (extra tax deduction lol jk). Youssef is starting training for a new job tonight so I'll have to see what I can find to do to entertain myself for a few hours. Mikhail stayed with my grandparents so we have the house to ourselves. I might do some cleaning and TV watching woo hoo! Have a great day everyone!

Good morning! I just found out that the girl I was going to work with in my hopefully new job/position is going to be leaving me and moving to Georgia. That's so sad. I think if she goes and I get the job that I may not be able to go to Morocco for another month or so. So that's sad news cause she's really nice and we get along really well. Oh well, I wish her the best.

Anyway, nothing new going on. Hopefully I will hear from someone soon about a job interview for that higher job I applied for. I think I am going to start to look for another job that will pay more just incase I don't get the position. Maybe I will just switch jobs anyway.

I can't wait to go to Morocco! I am so excited! I can't wait to see my MIL and meet the rest of the family!

Well I hope everyone has a wonderful day! Take care!

I'm happy to hear things are going well Noura. :) I'm sure you're still feeling so high from everything and I guess it must be nice to float for a while.

Jean, you're next!!!! :D

Allah tries his chosen people through many hardships, but those who persevere through adversity, surrendering themselves before the will of Allah, shall be blessed with a superb reward.

-The Prophet Muhammad (SAW), as reported by Anas bin Malik

A time will come when the sky is torn apart; when the stars scatter, and the ocean drains away; and when the graves are tossed about, and laid open. At that time every man will be told what he has done, and what he has failed to do; and every woman will be told what she has done, and what she has failed to do.

-Qur'an, Al-Infitar, Surah 82:1-5
