Should had just put it on Facebook. (Not that we could see it. :rolleyes

Congrats girl on the wee on the way.

Esteemed POTN member Sevillafox had the Title "I'm knocked up" throughout her pregnancy. Maybe Chrissy would like to wear it out for awhile.

Thanks, Chris! I haven't posted anything on facebook yet. We haven't finished telling our peeps yet. I actually had to delete a post by my Aunt so no one would be spoiled! I'd certainly take "I'm knocked up" over my current title. :rolleyes:

@Chrissy congratulations, now we'll have to save a screenshot of your avatar, and title...... For 12 years.

Thanks, Sam! I know how you're always trying to help me out and all, but I think I'll pass on that this time.

I'm here for the free margaritas....

Congratz Chrissy!!! Fabulous news!

Thanks, Flo!! I'll let you have my margarita. Or, like Dave, you and Penny can share it.

I think you're her for the lovin'.

And yes congratulations Chrissy.
You are not thinking of naming he or she Horton by any chance , are you?

Thank you, Max! You know, the thought crossed my mind, but then I wasn't sure my husband would go for it.

No bubbles to burst here Chrissy!
I'm just a happy little Skymon, for you!

And looking forward to being an internet (Sky)godfather, like the rest of us, when Little Chrissy is born.....time for a new thread, methinks!
