We really need to get stuff for the baby, I went through my baby clothes and somehow I'm missing a TON of clothes from newborn-9 months, I guess lending them out has made the supply dwindle. I'm happy that I still have most of my "favorites". But we need a new carseat and stroller and I've been looking at what feels like millions of carseats and strollers, I've been wanting a travel system, but I've heard mixed things about the strollers, I need a good stroller, we go for lots of walks. Another thing I've been considering is my youngest, right now he is VERY slow and prefers to be held and would ride in a stroller if I let him, I will not get a double stroller, he is 4 for crying out loud, but I have been thinking about a sit n stand, it has a normal stroller seat for a younger child and then there is a platform on back where a bigger kid can sit or stand on, but then I feel like I may be enabling him to not learn to ride his bike, he HATES bikes right now he keeps saying he isn't big whenever we try to get him to ride one.....
Oh sigh, how I wish I had a million dollars, or even a couple thousand, then I could buy both types of strollers and only use the sit n stand when we travel or are going to be doing a lot of walking somewhere..... I also gave away the bumper pads and crib stuff after I had my youngest, because I really didn't like it anymore, so I'm going to make new ones, those I figure I have some time because the baby will spend a few months in our room in the bassinet, I would like to have them done before he is born but if not, no big deal. I don't want to get all stressed out about the stuff that the baby needs or I will panic and end up spending more money than I need to or I will raise my blood pressure, which wouldn't be good for anyone.
I'm also wondering how its going to work having all 3 boys in the same room, my youngest is the lightest sleeper on the planet, I think I might get a sound machine and put it in there to get him used to some sound. We could put the baby in the play room, but then I worry about when the boys want to play or want to watch TV and waking the baby up, argh, again if I had a million dollars I would add on to our house or just buy a bigger one.....
I'm feeling much better today, as far as sinuses go, but I haven't eaten much due to morning sickness today, I am going to try to go to water aerobics tonight, I did get a new swim suit and I think I will be able to wear it for a while after the baby is born....
So I tried to upload pics from the internet of my swimming suit and the stroller, but it wouldn't work, but NO I will not post a picture of myself in the suit, I want the people who read this to still like me..
Side note: I do not own a full length mirror SO imagine my surprise and disgust when I was at the gym and caught sight of my legs, YIKES they are scary, I've always had "thicker" trunks, but when they are muscley they don't look bad at all, they are not muscley right now..... tear....

Glad you're feeling better.
You know, when I want a quick smile, I reread the things your boys have said that you have posted in the sidebars of the blog. Adorable. :)
Money is always nice, and solves those silly little problems.
doesnt it seem like we never have what we need, but somehow we manage....im scared to get into my swimsuit this year..same reason, my legs dont look as good as they used too..lol
hey tiffany, i found your blog through erin's. your boys are cute! and congrats on your pregnancy!
we have a sit-n-stand and i really like it (thus far), and it was a gift, but it really wasn't *that* expensive. we also have a travel system from when maddy was born and i really like that too.
well, crap, i'm sure that doesn't help you really. good luck!
Don't look at your legs right now.....water weight. Horrible. You will be good as new as soon as that cute little baby is here!
