I don't find it offensive. Just a little odd.... Seriously...like the dude said this morning....go to regretsy.com. There's worse stuff.

I think they need to do away with the 5-star prisons and make it a little rougher on convicted criminals. If they earn the death penalty, they should be made to stay in a cell by themselves with no windows for a couple of years with no social interaction or 'recess' and THEN put to death. That way they have to live with what they've done for a while. Putting them to death immediately is probably what they would prefer. Would you want to be on that firing squad? I wouldn't.

I know!!! We're finishing a room downstairs so we can move the office out of Ava's room. There is a bathroom connected to it, so we had to finish that first, now we still have to sand, paint, and lay down the hardwoods in the room. THEN we can start on Ava's.

That's like saying, "Sorry, I can't leave you a tip. I just filled up my gas tank......or paid my cell phone bill......or paid my mortgage today."

Just wait till it gets closer and you realize how much you have left to do. Then you'll say, "Time flew by!!! I feel like I haven't had time to prepare!!!" I already feel like that and I have 3 months left!

Agreed. Ever notice the people judging usually don't have kids?

Ava is mine. She'll be Ava Mackenzie. We've already started calling her Ava Mac.

It started on Friday, so it will probably be over before the weekend. LR, My due date is February 19th!!!!

I'm doing well! Still going strong. I was working on Ava's closet yesterday and I think she already has more clothes than I do! FYI to all the pregnant ladies: The 50% off outerwear sale at Old Navy applies to Maternity also. I bought a black wool blend mid-length pea coat for $45 this weekend!

You have a rating box. I can see it. Look in the lower right-hand corner of your posts. Then there's a box below your profile pic instead of stars it says Reputation.

Tardy for the Party has got to be one of the worst songs I've ever heard!!!

Who made you the ref?

I believe you have to have over 5,000 posts.

This time, I know I'm right. I witnessed it in another topic.

The system is already being abused.

I can already tell this system is NOT going to work. Some members have the maturity of Middle Schoolers and cannot handle it. In another thread just now, I noticed someone was voting another member's posts negative even when they were nice. Just because they hold a grudge.

What?!? NO! THANKSGIVING COMES FIRST!!!! I absolutely REFUSE to celebrate anything Christmas holiday related until the day AFTER Thanksgiving!!!

I think it's because it doesn't matter what we think of him. He's the only constant here. Pcommers have come and gone, but he owns the site. He's the owner, he makes the rules, and if someone doesn't like them, find another board. I bet his meter would always be going up and down anyway because he has to deal with so much crap coming from every-which way. He can't make everyone happy and that makes people either love him or hate him.

I have met lots of awesome Pcommers!! I would LOVE to meet more! I've only met one Pcommer I can honestly say I don't like. I haven't seen her around for a while though.

Wow...I didn't even know the 'reputation' thing existed. Is it only for CM's or for everyone?

Even though I know they're actors, Damien's attitude completely turns me off....I can't stand people like him...I think that's why I am not attracted to him.

EEEWWW! NO! NOT HIM!!!!! Stephen is hotter.

I'm watching my hottie Vampires tonight!

Actually, I have a book that has real photos of a fetus inside the womb. How they got them, I have no idea, microscopic camera of some sort? I dunno. They are amazing photos and show so much detail. It's called As Your Baby Grows, and is published by American Baby. I can't find anything that says how the photos were acquired.

I think Unknown may be referring to the pregnancy tickers with the fetus on it and it changes as the baby is developing over time. I (obviously) see nothing wrong with these. I think it's actually very interesting to see how a baby forms and develops. And no, it's not just because I'm pregnant. I think it's a fascinating miracle regardless.
