Can you ever be ready for a baby?
Before you get pregnant, you might have all the boxes ticked, or you could be the 'let's just see what happens' type. No matter what your style, it can help to think about the emotional aspects of parenthood.

And it a 50/50 chance of that happening, it is either usually that sort of thing or a strength type challenge where they have to hold a pose for hours, he could do well at that type of thing.
Still no Cheryl, hope she is ok Jen |

QUOTE (Jen1 @ 15/12/2012, 12:31 PM)  Normally Cheryl is around, I wonder if she is moving again? Oh Jen you know me so well.....Just drove across the country to move house AGAIN - I knew when my DH got his removal dates that the Survivor finale would be that weekend. I was happy Denise won after Malcolm was voted out, either of them were good winners in my book because they worked at it and didn't just ride coat tails or luck into it like some other recent winners. The only downside is that I would have preferred both of them in the finale rather than Mike and Lisa but I guess that shows the strength of a good F2 pact where you aren't scared of the other person beating you  Personally if Malcolm is returning I hope he does the opposite of JT (who he reminded me of, JT crossed with Kim who won the season last year) and actually wins next season. He seemed very self aware as well as interesting and competitive. |

Nice to hear from you Cheryl!! Wow, how many places have you moved too? It is very inconsiderate of them moving you when the Survivor finale is on.
 QUOTE The only downside is that I would have preferred both of them in the finale rather than Mike and Lisa but I guess that shows the strength of a good F2 pact where you aren't scared of the other person beating you original.gif I would have loved to see them both in the finale together. Lets hope that Malcolm does make it further in the game with this next series.

Sunny Canberra now, no longer do I have to work out time zones to see when Foxtel shows are airing but on the downside I won't get Survivor before the kids come home from school next year
