I'm surprised the other gym allows multiple kids on the trampoline, actually. Safety recommendations (even for my little, net-enclosed one at home) say no more than one child at a time. It can be easy to bounce out of control, or bounce just as the other person is bouncing and cause the extra-high bounce. Anyway, I would actually feel more comfortable with a gym that follows safety recommendations for equipment, even if I don't always follow them myself.
Janeen, have a wonderful day with your ultrasound and shopping!
I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders, too, because I finally did our dreaded taxes last night and we are getting a little refund and not having to pay like I was worried about. I wasn't sure how we were going to manage owing $.
What do you girls think of the name Molly? I think I might like it for a girl's name but I am not sure yet.
I confess I am in tears right now. One of my parents just showed up early to pick up her son. She lost her job that she moved over here for. She's moving out of state. She said they would not be back. She also said on the way over here she was thinking that she hates it in Wisconsin anyway but the hardest part would be how much her son loves me.
I love him too. I can't believe I will likely never see him again. My heart is broken.
:bigeyes:

It felt sad to me that they had to watch one other kid having fun by himself. Isn't it more fun to jump with someone else?
I wonder if I'd feel differently if I didn't already go to the gym that allows more than one person on it. LOL
And I love the name Molly!
I like the name Molly. Always have.Quote:

I like the name Molly.
Bridget, I think that would be one of the hardest parts about running a daycare--saying goodbye to your favorites. I'm so sorry.
I LOVE it. It's always been pretty high up on my list of all-time favorite names.Quote:

I like the name Molly too! :)
I confess that Mia & I have been stuck inside for 3 days straight (she's been sick) and we're FREAKING OUT with boredom. :crazy:
Thanks for the opinions on the name, guys, I'm going to look and see if it's too popular, but I don't think it is.
Sorry, Bridget, about the little boy moving. The hardest part for me when I was a teacher was not seeing the kids after they graduated.
Bridget - Hugs woman. That's got to be hard.
I like the name Molly, too.
My recent dictator boss (she wasn't always so) is always harping on us to manage our time, have good customer service and make sure we're accurate and correct in what we say and do.
I confess she just closed an email to a customer (I was cc'd), withQuote:
Have a god weekend!
LOL...a Freudian slip?
Ugh, I just looked and Molly is #32 in popularity in the UK...that's a bit too popular for me, I think.
I like the name Molly.
Bridget, sorry about the little boy. :hugs:
Lydia, glad you are getting some money back! WooHoo!! :hooray:
Kate, I'd feel more comfortable in a place that had rules in place like that for the trampoline. We had a place like that down here (it's out of business now) but they had strict rules in place and I'm sure that their workers moved my kids off the tramp more than once. :laugh: I was glad that they did it before someone got hurt.
Oh, that's not super common. What other names are on your list?Quote:

Alison, Louisa and Kelsey aren't in the top 100. Lucy, however, is like number 25. I like Alice as well but that's number 10. I'd like to go with something nice and a little American sounding, like Travis' name. It's not popular at all here but is where I'm from in Arkansas.
Meh...kids will get hurt..there were plenty of slides and ramps and things that had no rules..Josh was playing all by himself and fell and bumped his chin...I understand wanting to minimize accidents but they didn't even explain it to me even though I'd told them it was my first time there. They didn't say if the gym equipment was off limits (it's not, at our other gym) or anything so I basically learned by observing, and had to corral Josh the whole time. Wah wah wah, I know. Just go to the other gym. LOL
I love all those girls names! Cute.
I like all of them, though I've always had a soft spot of Lucy & Louisa.Quote:

Have you tried Nymbler.com? I entered Lucy and it gave me all of these other names:Quote:

This list was generated from: Lucy.
Sophie, Charity, Reva, Molly, Rose, Rae, Clara, Stella, Tia, Grace, Sadie, Julia, Lydia (hah!), Lila, Ceil
ETA: If you enter Alice, it brings up some names I love, like Abigail and Eleanor, which have been recently popular in the US.
I confess that this is copied and pasted from the May DD forum but here ya go ladies!
The whole experience was just amazing all around. We had about ten people total in the room with us that they had set up like a movie theater with a big wall sized tv screen. Then everyone at my work was watching it live online in the conference room at work, they saw everything as we saw it and they could even hear everything that was going (us talking).
We'll go ahead and start with the most impressive one...ALL of my coworkers and everyone at the ultrasound with us got to hear me say "I know what I'm looking at, those are testicles!!!!!!" His little butt (butt crack and all) is underneath and the testicles are right above) :lol:

And here are some of the face shots... we got tons of pictures and it was really hard to chose which ones to upload so I just went "there's a good one, ahhh that's a good one too" :laugh:

Thanks for looking! :D
Yay Janeen Love the pics!
Anyone else watching the opening ceremony for the Olympics? Good job Canada!
He is a handsome little guy, Janeen! BTW, congrats on passing your glucose test!
I didn't watch the Olympics--still trying to catch up on yesterday's Survivor premiere.
Janeen, great pictures! I love the first one!
Jennifer, I'm watching right now as I browse. It's quite a show!
