HI LADIES!!!

[smjmekg]

So we're officially back in NC, been here in our house for almost four days. We've been busy unpacking, arranging, rearranging, washing dishes, and getting used to our surrounding areas. So far it's been good, a few problems like a leaking hose for the water dispenser on our refridgerator, which has ruined part of our wall...yay, and now I've just discovered that it really WAS my dishwasher leaking water and not just my cooler leaking...yay again. So I guess it's welcome to a new house/being a home owner for us. Elijah is still growing like a weed, and talking more and more everyday. Yesterday marked day one of week 14 for baby number two. I've started getting the round ligament pains, fun fun. Josh is supposed to be setting up our medical today so hopefully I'll be able to make an appointment soon. I wasn't able to get my car up and running so next on the priority list is getting the only working car registered...so I have no choice right now but to sit home all day and not explore Hope Mills (the city we live in). Our neighborhood is awesome! All new houses, and new construction on a couple streets. So far the people we've met are really nice. I'm getting a signal off of someone else's wireless internet right now, lol, so if I'm not on regularly just yet that's why. We haven't decided between dish and Time Warner, our only cable options, if anyone has any input on either please feel free to spread the news. I can't use the card reader on my computer, it's never worked so I can't put up pictures until we get our other computer and the internet hooked up, not that I'd put up any right now anyways...I have a living room full of disaster, a half put together kitchen, things all over my bedroom and in Elijah's room...it looks like a tornado came through my house already, lol! Anyways, I hope all of you are doing well and you'll all let me know what's been going on. I've been stopping and taking an internet break on and off today, but so much has been posted since we had our computer shipped, it's been more than a month so it would take me forever to go back through all the older posts and see what's been happening.

OOPS LOL Guess I'm behind the times!!!

LosingMyMindInGA~~~I did have my first u/s already, at 11w1d, I have pics posted on my profile of my "little alien", lol.

Sunkissed19~~~I'm so glad you had the baby! YAY! I can't wait for number 2 to be born! I'm more than sure I have a lot of catching up to do...being away for one day is bad enough, but it's been more than a month!

nickieb85~~~The house we moved into is 1700 sq ft, 600 more than our 1100 sq ft apartment we had in Korea, but it feels SO much bigger! I don't know if I'd want much bigger than this now...I really wanted something at least 2000 sq ft, but now that I'm here and see how much room I haven't filled...I'm happy with what I got for now, oneday we'll go bigger, but for right now...this is more than enough.

Glad to hear that you made it back to the states okay! I agree with the other ladies and Time Warner is the best way to go and is way cheaper than satellite! We are moving this weekend into a house that is about 900 sp ft bigger than this dinky little condo we live in now. I bet you are thrilled! Sorry to hear about the moving tornado and I think it gets the better of all of us when we move! I am glad to hear that your neighborhood is good!

Welcome back :) ! I had my baby! He was born the day after my due date on May 1st weighing 7lbs 14 oz and 19 inches long...my birth was a wonderful experience and i loved it! he is now a little over a month old and thriving...u can check out pics on my profile :)! a bunch of other ladies had their LO's too...u have a lot of catching up to do!! we missed you!!

I had a HORRIBLE time with both DISH and DirecTV.  Got rid of BOTH of them and went with a local cable  company.  I will NEVER have satellite again.  

Glad to hear everything is coming along.  Hopefully things will settle down soon and you'll be able to get your first ultrasound :)

Thanks! I know, time is flying by so fast, I'll think it's maybe 6 and it's already 8 pm...it's weird since the sun doesn't go down until after 9 pretty much...the last six or so weeks have gone by so fast, and we've been so busy...it's nice to be able to sit on my butt all day, well unpack all day instead of having to go to this person's house, or visit these people, go here, go there, drive to this state, or that state...I'm finally HOME!

welcome to NC....my suggestion would be Time Warner....i just got rid of satellite and switched to Time Warner....my bill went down and so far I've been happy with my service...i absolutely love the on demand feature Time Warner offers especially their preschool channel on demand...

btw...i live in Wilmington NC

congrats on hitting the 2nd trimester as well...14 weeks already!!!! time sure did fly on by :)
