TO CUTE!

I just came across this and thought it was to cute to not post. Maybe we should all try something on the list :)

"How To Get Pregnant:

1. Donate your last piece of baby equipment to Goodwill.
2. Send your youngest child off to kindergarten with a dance of joy.
3. Start writing that novel you've always dreamed about ( or take golf lessens, join a bowling league)
4. Spend $ 500.00 on a new wardrobe for work
5. Get a cat or a puppy.
6. Just finish all the paperwork to adopt a child.
7. Let your best friend or sister use the baby name you'd been hoping to use for your next child.

I have another one to add to the list.  Maybe, just Maybe if I set a date for my wedding that will be enough to bring on the BFP...I've been waiting as I do not want to be huge and pregnant at the wedding.

Maybe that's the problem...maybe there's a particular happy dance that has to be done.

Bridgette- all of my boys have their 3 grandfathers first names as their middle names, I don't know what i'll do if I have another boy! Wait, thats wrong, Salvatore's middle name was my FIL's middle name....so confusing!

That is so cute. I almost did "2. Send your youngest child off to kindergarten with a dance of joy." The problem here I guess is I did not do the dance of joy right. So I will have to try to dance with joy each day that I put him on the bus. :)

I don't think it's narcisstic (sp??).  I like to think of it as tradition.  Tim's middle name is his father's first name.

All of the names we have picked are family names.  Unless we have twins, then I had to stretch it, but the middle names are still family names.

Yeah, Rossie shoot for the shoppnig spree - LOL

Too cute!!

I had gotten my dog two years ago so that won't work, giving away my baby stuff!!! Did that along time ago my DD is 11yrs old lol. AS for names, haven't picked any yet. Still arguing about it with my BF, If a boy he wants Albert , like his favorite baseball player and i said "NO" it reminds me of Fat albert from the cartoon. So that won't work. Not much on that list for me to work with lol...

Bridgette- I like the name Evangeline, it's not a common name and thats what I look for. My kids never had a child with the same name in their class.

Aileen- so Madison it is??? I don't think it's that big of a deal with the middle name, i'm not to crazy about first names though. And Elizabeth is a very pretty name.

I know...I always think of you when he says Madison.
You don't think it would be weird for her to have the same middle name?  It seems a little narcissistic to me.

I'm going with Evie for a nickname since I'm not such a big fan of Evangeline.  But I understand it's important to Tim as it's his g'mas name.  Better then Vangie which is what they called her!

I like Elizabeth, why wouldn't you want her to have your middle name?  Madison is the capital city of WI where I work and play.

I could always call her Eva, eh?
I don't think I could convince Jim though... if i told him we had to name the baby that because it's a fertility treatment for you he'd laugh in my face. =) And if it actualy worked I'd have to spend the next how long having babies so everyone could give me their names!
He's set on Madison, and he likes Elizabeth for a middle name.  I like Elizabeth but it's my middle name (for my grandma) and I'm pretty sure I don't want to give a baby my middle name.

Lori - my Macy's card is recovering from last weeks trip.  I fulfilled #4 and then some!  Good thing I pay the bills, because DH's eyes would pop out if he saw it.  But hey a girl needs a little retail therapy once in a while, right?  And I have been putting off buying clothes for a very long time.

Aileen - do you want to name your girl Evangeline?  Eh?

Bridgette-LOL! Maybe next time he comes in instead of crying when he leaves i'll do a happy dance! You better take that Macy's card and get shopping!

Steph- see, the puppy thing worked for Aileen, so maybe just maybe!

Aileen- maybe this will be the easy way for all of us to pop up on your list, hey it's worth a try!

Aileen - =)~  still not funny

Well, I went back to college, got a puppy and spent a ton on new winter clothes.  That BFP better be right around the corner because there's nothing left on the list for me to do!

bridgette...eh??  See?  I was right.  You might as well just move a little bit north. =)~

I got a puppy, she's abbynormal,  It worked for me.  I also cheerfully sent DD off to preschool, not Kindergarten, but close enough. I've been writing a novel for 15 years already, so I'm pretty sure that didn't have anything to do with it, but I had started a writing course that I never was able to complete.
