We do both. Since they have almost 20 kids in their school classes we buy for those and make the teachers cards. We also make cards for other family members. I think as long as I get a Valentine's Day card that the person...

surveygrrl Yes, I do think that the handmade ones are worth more than store bought ones.

surveygrrl That would look silly giving Elmo cards...lol. And only having to make a few for the important people is good too.

I have been trying to get out for a few weeks now. I was hoping to double date because I can't even remember the last time that happened. Our last date night without any kids was back in September for my husband's birthday. We...

surveygrrl I think we are going to try to have more dates just as husband and wife and then have a couple dates where we go out with friends. Sometimes it is harder to go out with friends because we are both trying to coordinate days and babysitters.

surveygrrl Yes, going out always seems to cost money. We try to swap babysitting with someone else so that childcare is not another added cost of going out.

There are a few I would rather not do but I really hate scrubbing the floor. I don't really enjoy doing dishes but I love when they are all done and the sink is clean. I don't like the chores that require my hands getting wet. I...

surveygrrl I know what you mean about the weekends. I have so much to do during the week I try to do the same thing like throw in a load of laundry then clean the bathroom. I have 3 kids and it is hard to go behind them or to move all the toys to vacuum. When my husband...

surveygrrl Oh my gosh, I forgot all about that. I remember so many nights that I had to stop making dinner because touching the chicken or meat would make me feel nauseous. Congratulations on your pregnancy! I hope your S.O. will help you with the dishes more often :)

I try to work out with the kids if possible but that limits what I can do. Walking, bike riding, maybe taking a wlak in the woods but with a baby that hard. The kids get tired of walking and some days it is too cold. I wish I had...

surveygrrl I have been trying to do toe points andthings like that when I am stuck sitting and when I am putting laundry away I have started doing lunges down the hallway. I do squats while brushing my teeth and arm lifts while waiting on the microwave. I know that won't...

Here I can start planning in March and start getting some plants going inside. We really can't start planting outside until later in April. I am trying to decide now what we are going to grow this year because I want to get my...

surveygrrl I know what you mean about the list of wants. I have to do that too because of the space I have for my garden. I have to keep it closed in because of the rabbits and deer. They seem to eat more some years than we do.

On facebook my favorite game is "Country life". Out of all of the farming games, this one holds my attention the most and the one I play the most often. it's sorta simple, but realistic. Next, would be Yoville, and then probably...

surveygrrl I do try to video tape some things but take more pictures than anything. I don't have the video camera going a lot of the times that they are doing or saying something that I really want to remember. I do make a slideshow DVD of their pictures each year....

surveygrrl Oh goodness. I am glad she didn't have her hair cut short. I do all the hair cutting in our house and the kids know that I am the only one allowed to cut hair. Not even Daddy. haha.

Once I get started it doesn't take me long. It takes longer to get my husband to start doing it. He gets almost to the end and then I end up finishing it up. I guess we make a good team but it is so hard to get him to...

surveygrrl I think of how it would be easier if we did rent and then the landlord would have to bother with them but some of them have to do with changing wall colors and things that landlords really dont want you to do. They seem to like plain white and possibly a cream...

surveygrrl Yes, I think it was just normal jitters. I have been getting a little nervous a few days before each appointment this time. I think it's because I don't really think about it too much because I have been so busy and busy with the 2 I already have. I haven't...

surveygrrl I am so late re-responding....lol. Good luck TTC #2. It seemed to take a lot longer this time than the last 2. I was wondering if it was ever going to happen. Hopefully it will happen for you soon.

surveygrrl Thank you! I am 99% sure we will be done after this one is born. I am planning to have my tubes tied since I will be having a c-section anyway. I love you little Peanuts avatar. Our nursery is done in Peanuts, well mainly snoopy and woodstock. We jokingly...

surveygrrl Thank you :) You are so right about hwo each pregnancy comes with anxiety and jitters. It seems like each time I am nervous about the same things but I have different reasons.
