that is way cute!!!
 
My oldest son just after he started crawling loved to play in boxes, we have a few pics with him in them, and he loved wash rags too when he was a baby, he would play with one for a while. Children...you buy them a $50 toy and they play with the friggin box. http://www.thesmilies.com/smilies/rolleye0014.gif
 
Aww, what a cutie:)
 
Adorable!!!!! :)
 
My son is 4 and he just LOVES a box! He makes everything out of them...airplanes, helicopters, cars, club-house.....I just don't get it! (and I can't stand the boxes in my living room either!) Everytime he sees the UPS man come by - before he even stops at our house mind you - my son is asking if he can have my box when I unload it so he can 'build something'.
 
That is the cutest sample I've ever seen!!!!! What a sweety!!!
 
WOW!!! I hope I'm that lucky on my nexr shipment....
 
Hey, how do I get one? I bet it was one of the plus bonuses!
 
Anne is now googling any possible way that she can get a baby and PC products while only paying one shipping charge!
 
My daughter is 10 and she still likes the boxes!

And Why not?!
 
If you are going to buy a baby on the black market you better get a good deal on shipping!!

Anne & Gillian & any others ttc'ing - I thought about my post a little more & I feel like I should apologize. It was insensitive of me to post my pic like this when I know that you are struggling. I'm sorry.

WAY too cute!!! :)
 
Crystal- I am so glad that you posted this pic, and I don't think that it is insensitive AT ALL. You can't just hide your kids in fear of hurting someone's feelings! It is an adorable pic and I don't think that anyone TTC would be offended or hurt because of this pic! Thank you for sharing and please feel free to share anytime :)
 
Crystal: You better take that back! NO APOLOGIES NEEDED! I am by no means bitter or upset about people who have been blessed with children. I'm just waiting my turn--that's all! Please continue to share pics of your baby! Just adorable!

I have to admit doing the Babies R Us event was hard. But all those babies were so cute!

BTW: I don't think I could afford the black market. LOL

Thanks, ladies. I feel better knowing that I didn't upset you guys! It was just after I re-read my post it kind of came off wrong today. It didn't help that my 2 older kids (girls) were giving me a run for my money today. I would've given them to you & paid the shipping!

I will keep both of you in my prayers at night for baby blessings soon! Though, if you were to get pg right away, that would kind of mess up conference, wouldn't it? ;)

PS - I take my apology back.... I don't want you girls after me! :D

LOL! I have been thinking about conference too! We really can't afford it (a baby or conference!) but they are both fun to think about! I am not on BC right now, so eventually it will happen. I will figure out what to do about conference when I find out a due date.
 
That is so cute! :D
 
I hope to have one by conference. Just thining of Chicago in July and pregs. UG! Gillian: You would melt out there!
 
I would! Hot for us is 72 (for two days in July, LOL!) so I get hot pretty easily in a hot place. My pregnancies didn't affect me too much temperature wise, but I was hugly preggo with both of them in the winter/spring.
 
When I was there is was 102 or 103 and humid. I felt like I started sweating when I arrived on Wednesday and didn't stop until I got home Sunday. Ewww! I swear I showered two or three times a day and STILL felt nasty.

That's just a good ol' Illinois summer! It is soooo yucky here during the summertime. I usually do the multiple showers thing too. There were days that I didn't even go outside this past summer!
 
Those are the types of pics that make me want another baby...then I sit and reflect and remember that they turn 2 and then 3 and then 10 and then....

I know, me too. Then they turn into (gasp) teenagers!

I am only 2 years away from having one of those teenagers in my house. Puberty has started and things are way out of control and he's a boy...I can't imagine what it will be like with my daughter!
 
Hey! I want one too! lol
 
Does anyone have the number for a free baby from PC? Do I have to order a certain dollar amount in supplies first, LOL????
