Facebook Got Me Again.....

I saw this tonight on Faceb.ook .....

[Insert name here] is EXPECTING AGAIN!! I know, I know it's pretty crazy isn't it? I really don't want to believe it myself. I wasn't going to put it on here, because it will be obvious soon enough, but thought I needed to make it official. I mean who would have guessed AGAIN!! So now you know, it's official. We are expecting *frigid weather* AGAIN tonight and tomorrow!! **Re-post if you have any sense of humor.!!*
ha ha got ya!!!

When I first read this, I thought "Crap! Not another Faceb.ook pregnancy announcement! "  Then I thought what a stupid post!

Yup, Faceb.ook got me again!  Not sure whether to be pissed off, or just relieved.  I guess I'm relieved.

Thanks, I have a sense of humor ........ but no thanks, I'm not re-posting this.

For those of you not in the Midwest, or have not been up to date in US news, here's what's happening in most of the Midwest of the United States.  Check out this video.

The Forgotten

I was on Faceb.ook tonight and saw this on my 10-year-old nephew's status:

"sadly, has no cousins..... :-( "

Sometimes I forget that we (Babe & I) are not the only ones affected by our infertility.

On my side of the family, there are the three of us siblings: My sister, my brother and I.  My sister has 3 kids (13, 10 and 6).  My brother is not married, and has no kids.  Me... well, you know the story.

My BIL (sister's hubby) has one sister.  She also is not married, and has no kids.

So that means not only do my nieces and nephew have no cousins, my sis and BIL have no nieces or nephews either.

My mom and dad have grandkids.

My brother has nieces and a nephew.

Babe and I have no kids (we're trying!!)

But my sis, BIL, and their family are affected by our infertility too.  I've never really put too much thought into this, but we forget that they do suffer a kind of loss too.  No wonder they are our biggest supporters!

Thanks, Sis and BIL!!  We love you and miss you guys!

Thanks, Facebook!

This was an ad on my Face.book page today.

So not only do I have do deal with pregnancy announcements, ultrasound pictures, birth announcements, baby pictures and "guess what cute thing my child said/did today", Face.book is also in my face with a "pregnancy solution".

Thanks a lot!

Yah, that one didn't get a "like" from me!
