I'm so bad at posting here. I keep up on other's post but never seem to reply. Sorry about that.

A- Sorry about the twins reactions to the shots. It's so hard when our little ones aren't feeling well.

Robin- I'm also a fat mommy. It's not an absolute rule that it will take longer to feel movement. I starting feeling things around 17-18 weeks with both of my last two pregnancies. Hopefully you'll start feeling movement sooner rather than later.

Laura- That really sucks that Caleb has to be re-circed. I hope it goes well.

As far as adoption goes, I agree that it sucks that we have to go through all this sh!t. If Jocelyn was born this year or Oregon's domestic partnerships had gone through last year we would have been lucky enough to atomaticaly both be legal parents from the get go. However, because we do have the domestic partnership it does make the process easier. We met with a lawyer back in December, but we needed to save up the money. I called the lawyer last week to say we are ready to go but now he's too busy to take our case. He refered us to a lawyer 3.5 hours away. Anyways, I'm going to try to find a new lawyer in our area and basicly I'm back to square one.

I got a very part time job (like 10 hours a week) at Target. I'm basicly working 2-3 evenings a week so Jocelyn doesn't need a babysitter still. This is more to get me out of the house than anything. Plus now I get the fabulous discount. Also, I'm starting college again in the fall. Just starting with 2 classes, but I'm really excited.

Jocelyn is doing great. She's at such an amazing age. She's not crawling yet, but she can get places by rolling and spinning on her belly. She is doing a ton of baby talk. It's so cute because she looks so serious while she's "talking" to you. My major acomplishment is we've got her drinking from a cup all by her self (it's not even a sippy cup). She still gets her formula in a bottle, but I think we'll start switching that over in a month or two. I started weaning her off the breast about 1.5 months ago. My own stupid reason, but she was starting to play with my nipple and I was having a hard time with that. I did exclusively pump for a bit, but when we went to Sacramento my pumping schedule got out of wack and I pretty much dried up. I was never one of those women that loved breastfeeding and so it feels really good to have all this freedom. Jocelyn goes in for her 9 month (9 months, holly crap where did the time go) check-up in two weeks. I'm really curious as to how much she weighs now, because she feels huge to me anymore.

OK, I know you guys didn't need to read a novel, but thanks for taking the time. I hope everyone had a wonderful mother's day!
