<p>karen- <strong>yay! It's my turn </strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>how are you feeling? <strong>Not very well actually   I have had really bad sciatica and can barely walk due to the spasms ans weakness in my leg. Going to Pain Management today to try nerve blocks...hope it works!</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>how do your children feel about the baby? <strong>The older 2 are really excited. My 17 month old is pretty clueless (of course) but we have been telling her "baby" when she pats or notices my belly. Last night she leaned over and said "baby" and kissed my belly...too cute!</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>how did you meet your dh? <strong>We met through hockey. He was looking for a new goalie for his team and I answered an email he sent out. I joined his team and later that year I invited him to my Halloween party. He showed up and we spent most of the night talking and have been together since </strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>will you be finding out the sex of the baby? <strong>Yes</strong> do you have any inklings about the sex? <strong>Since DH has fathered 2 daughters already we guessed girl. Just found out yesterday that we are indeed having another girl! </strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>do you have any names picked out? <strong>Still have a very long list that we are trying to narrow down</strong>  are you willing to share? <strong>lol...like a said, a pretty long list still:</strong></p>

<p><strong>Kaelyn</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>were you named after anyone? <strong>No</strong>  were any of your children named after anyone? <strong>My son is junior, which I regret and was only done because he was on his 2nd day in NICU and my ex and I still couldn't agree on a name) DSD is named after DH's mother and Zara's middle name (Violette) is after my Grandmother.</strong></p>

<p> </p>
<p>what do you have in your pockets? <strong>Not a thing</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>what is your favorite time of day? <strong>Sadly right now, it's bedtime. The only time I can get semi comfortable (sciatica) and try to relax. Usually I am an evening type person though...definitely more of a night owl, I don't do mornings well </strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>what is your favorite jelly bean flavor? <strong>Grape. Or in Jelly Belly, it's Pina Colada.</strong></p>

 <span><img alt="thanks.gif" src="http://files.mothering.com/images/smilies/thanks.gif" style="width:61px;height:40px;">   The epidural block worked a little. Now the pain is only in my hip and from my knee down...it skips my hamstring/upper leg area LOL</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span>I think we've decided on a name! DH LOVES the name Maia. We want it pronounced my-a though so I'm not sure on the spelling. Any other suggestions?</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span>Come on ladies...any other questions??? I'm so bored and am on partial bed rest because of the pain.</span><br>
