Don't start a new thread... Introduce/Re-Introduce yourself here

MomZone · 10-26-2003, 03:35 PM

Hey all - let's all introduce and reintroduce ourselves!

I'm Cyndi, I am the founder of the Moms Network Online Community which consists of about 20 websites or so - MomZone being one of them. Moms Network also does quite a bit "offline" too including a large Celebrating Moms Expo each year (next year probably in 3 cities) along with local groups who have their own smaller expos, we have a print magazine and an annual Moms Business Directory and Resource Guide

I've been married for 11 years and have two children - ages 9 1/2 and 2 1/2. I love scrapbooking (hardly ever have time anymore), movies, reading, eating out and really... just being silly.

I'm a Christian, sing on our music and worship team (I love music... used to play piano and guitar too) and trust that God will use me in ways - small or big - that He has in store for me

I love EVERYONE here at the zone and have made many wonderful

whom I trust and care for - even though at times I am not able to be on here very often. I admire people who know what they believe in and support their causes because of their convictions... even though they may be totally different from my own. I admire those with integrity and honesty and utmost... those who are humble.

oh - and I type too fast... so leave typos amuck here... hence having to edit when I catch them!

ok... that was MORE than enough on ME! Tell me about you!

I am so glad the boards are back!!!

This is me in a nutshell:

My name is Elena, and I am the WAHM to two boys aged 18 months and 7 years. My husband David is in the Air Force and we have been happily married for almost 4 years now... We are currently stationed in Washington, DC.

I own and operate two businesses:

Crop Divas: http://www.cropdivas.com - My Online Scrapbooking store
DirectSalesMoms.com: http://www.directsalesmoms.com - My WAHM resource and promotion site

I love scrapbooking, water sports, my doggies (two Labs yellow and chocolate), and just spending my downtime at home with my family...

Hi guys! It is nice to be back!!!

Hi all, I am Darlene. I am engaged to James, we just celebrated our 2 year anniversary yesterday. Between us we have 5 kids, ages 7-18. James is a sprinkler fitter and I am a secretary in our county ***essor's office. I will be starting college in January (sooner if I can) to earn a degree in social work. James is an avid hunter and fisherman. I enjoy darts, scrapbooking, volleyball and reading. I am learning how to shoot so that I can possibly be in tournaments or cowboy shoots with James.

Hi again~
I am Ann and I live in North Bend, WA. I am married to my high school sweetheart, Kevin and we have been married for 10 years. He's lots of fun and so supportive and loving. We have two cute kids, Daniel

is going to be 4 in December and Lily

is 21 months old.

I stay at home with the kids. Kevin is an Optometrist. Daniel is in preschool now and loves it! It's nice to have some time alone to do 'girl things' with Lily now too.

I also have my own little business, Annabelle's Angels, where I hand paint terra cotta pottery and ship it all over the country to clients. It's lots of fun and takes care of my creative itch.

It's also great cause it works around my busy Mommy schedule.

Life is good. We just moved into a new home in September. It's our first home with a yard. The kids LOVE that of course! I love to garden to I am enjoying all the learning about different plants and the Pacific Northwest.

I also love to read, shop (who doesn't?), be with

and family, I am active in church and love the outdoors.

I have been really impressed with this forum before, so I look forward to being a part of it again!! Hi and

to everyone!!

Hello everyone! I joined this site a few months ago and until recieving an e-mail about the changes, don't believe I ever did much on it! :D

Hmmm.what am I anyway? I was married for 11 years and a proud mommy of three beauties (10 (boy), 8 (girl) & 6 (girl)) and have been going through a divorce for the past 2 years. Have been with "new" boyfriend for a year and a half and we are expecting a baby girl in December! This is his first child so he is extremely excited! (As am I not having had a baby for 6 years :D)

I have only recently become a SAHM due to pregnancy difficulties and I'm not used to it at all! I've worked since I was 15 and think I'll be going to school in January to go into Early Childhood Education so that my children can be with me in a new career!

Pleased to meet you all :D

Well, my name is Samantha. I havent really been on the boards since I moved. Things are okay in my life so far. I'll be getting a mini-schnauzer at the end of january. The people I am getting it from said the dogs in heat and they should probably have puppies by x-mas and then i'll wait the six weeks till thier weined (sp?) I am so excited. I have wanted a dog for so long and did alot of research and this breed seems perfect for us.

Me and my dh are celebrating our two year wedding anniv. tommorow. We'll probably go out to outback steakhouse for a nice dinner after work. Cant believe its been two years already.

!

I love all the new smilies that we have now.

! they are cute. Hopefully I can be on a little more now. Its just I work 6-3, so i get up at 4:45, and the time i get home from work and eat dinner, etc. I am so tired i have hardly been online at all anymore.

Hope to talk to you all soon.
