I don't know how far from Arlington Frisco is... but I know of two fabulous pediatricians in Arlington.

I'm currently using Rainbow Chidlren's clinic on 360 at Mayfield. We see the Nurse Practitioner, Candice. She's WONDERFUL. They take Medicaid and Chip.

I also love Sherry Nussbaum. The only reason we left her was that we lost our insurance when DH lost his job, and she doesn't take Medicaid, but she DOES take CHIP.

Both ladies are fab!!!

God bless!

Hi Teenie!

Where in Arlington are you? I'm off of 360 and NE Green oaks.

I have 3 little boys... ages 7, 4 1/2 and Two. And a DD due at the end of September.

Would love to do a get together soon, we just need to schedule it a week or so in advance so my DH can get a ride to work.

God bless!

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I had a waterbirth with DS3 at Betty's. Probably will do water birth again this time.

And she used to have just one birthing tub, but this past year installed one in the second room as well!



God bless!

Definitely possible!!! Fingers crossed for you! When are you going to test?

I took a test a when I was a day late and it was negative. Took a test when I was 3 days late and it was positive.

God bless!

I actually kinda like the waiting in anticipation.. I actually never tested with Elijah or Naima!

So I am making "Thank you" goody bags to give to the people who attend my shower.

The bag will be a dark chocolate brown, with a pink organza bow, and decorated with the ribbon that has pink baby feet on it.

Inside the bag will be:
Sugar cookies in the shape of onesies with Bella Lynn's name across them, individually bagged with a tag that says "Thanks for celebrating with us today."

Little pink organza bags that have pink and purple candy in them.

And a teddy bear book mark (flat metal in the shape of a teddy bear) with a pink tassle.

Anyway, also on the outside of the bag will be a semi-custom made sticker. I just got the proof from the designer and it's even more adorable than I had imagined it. The only change I'm asking her to make, is to add a "!" at the end of the "Thanks for showering me with Love."

And then I decided that for my Thank You cards.. I'm going to place an order for more of the stickers, and use them to make my Thank You cards for my gifts... I love it.. tell me, honestly, what you guys think!!



I think it's too adorable!
