Baby Name Game [ten points to my faves]?

1) Duncan and Brooke Culkin are popular dancers, and love to travel because of work. Brooke is expecting a little boy, and wants to name him after a city, to display their love of traveling. Duncan’s father just died, and his father was very religous. So his middle name should be from the Bible.

2)Oh, poor Alice and James Lacroix. Do you know the twilight jokes they get? They want their twin daughters to have names that are in no way related to twilight. Alice’s parents were hippies so their daughter’s middle names should be hippy-like.

3) Adele and Trevor Baker are expecting twin sons. They both love NASCAR, and want their sons first names to be from NASCAR. However, Trevor hates Kurt and Kyle Busch, so they can’t be named after them. Adele also loves shakespeare and wants their middle names to be from one of his plays.

4) Rebecca Wilson is an expecting single parent. She loves celebrity baby names for her future daughter. So, both first and middle names should be celeb baby names.

5)Brandon and Erica Tremaine are having twins, a boy and a girl. Erica wants her sons first name to be from one of the Jackson 5, and the middle to be somehow related to Erica. Brandon want his daughters first name to be from a musical, and her middle name to be from a song.

1. Phoenix Joshua

2. Macey Summer & Paris Marley

3. Elliott Romeo & Joey Orlando

4. Lilly-Rose (Johnny Depp)

5. Michael Eric & Glinda Sadie (Wicked & ‘Sexy Sadie’ by the Beatles) x

John and Edward to enter the jungle!?

The twins have apparently been offered £100,000 to fly out to the jungle, after Katie quit the show on after just one week.

According to the tabloid, show producers made the offer via Jedward’s X Factor mentor, Louis Walsh, who has flown to Dublin to speak to the twins’ parents. "It would be a nailed-on ratings coup if Louis manages to persuade them it’s a good move for their career," an insider is quoted as saying. "Louis still believes ITV haven’t offered enough money. But the twins were completely unknown a couple of months ago and everyone around them is saying they should make hay while the sun shines."

When asked about the offer by GMTV host Ben Shepherd, John said: "Can we do that? Are we celebrities?… We’re up for any challenge, we’ve got to think about it together and see if it’s for us."

Would you like to see John and Edward get stuck into some bushtucker trials?
Me? I would love to see them in the jungle, as long as they dont do all the trials, I reckon that after you’ve done a trial, people shouldn’t be able to vote for you the day after :)
NOOOOO I hate John and Edward, I was relieved then they got kicked out of X Factor, and where ever I go they’re EVERYWHERE! I’d hate it if they went on the jungle cos its good at the moment since Katie Price left and they’d probably be voted to do every trial and its so BORING seeing the same people do them over and over again. Also, they’d probably win cos for some reason people love them.

So, its a NO WAY for me lol.
I have one question… would YOU like to see them?

What are the chances of me having twins?

So people on both sides of my family have had twins..

My mothers side - My mother’s aunties are twins. Twins run in my mothers side of the family and usually skips every generation so it would fall on me and my generation.

My father - I have a half sister. We have the same fathers but different mothers and she has had twins.
All natural. How much are the chances improved of my having twins with this history of them etc.
Thanks.

The average American has a 1 in 90 chance of having twins (no fertility drugs). Your chance of having them is only slightly better. The every-other-generation thing has to do with your father. If your grandmother had a hyperovulating gene and your father inherited it, and then you inherited it, then you have a much higher chance of having twins. However, this is not the case in the direct maternal line. If your mom’s generation did not have twins, then it was just coincidence that there are multiple twins in your family. Maybe something in the water…who knows.

In my family, there are NO multiples to moms under 38. However, moms 38 or over, ALL have multiples (twins, triplets and quads). So, even though there were multiple multiples in my family, age (and obesity apparently) were factors here, not an inherited tendency.

My husband recently found out hat he has 3 year old twins by his ex . We have been married for about a year and 1/2 and everything has been pretty perfect until his ex showed up and told him that he has 2 kids.This woman isn’t just a random ex-girlfriend either. They were in a five year relationship and engaged, they grew up together, their parents were friends, she was close with his family and he wanted to marry her. She left him a few weeks after they became engaged. She left him a note and moved to a different city a few weeks later…that’s how she ended a 5 year relationship. What he didn’t tell me until know was that he went to go see her a few months later which resulted in a one night stand..which resulted in her becoming pregnant..which she conveniently forgot to tell him about.

I can’t really be upset by any of this as it all happened before we even met, but it all seems so surreal. My husband has two beautiful children by another woman who he was in love with for years, whom he probably be married to right now had she not have left him

I don’t know what to make of the woman. She’s quiet and polite which wasn’t what I expected. Why would she tell him about the children 3 years later? She had 3 years + 9 months while she was pregnant. She’s an attorney and has a job where I’m sure she earns around 6 figures, so she doesn’t need his support financially. She’s beautiful and could probably have any man she wanted. My mother in law and her mother are close and the woman’s own mother didn’t even know she had kids. I figure there has to be something seriously wrong with a woman who would walk out on her fiance and a five year relationship, not tell him they had children together and not even tell her own mother that she has 2 kids. I pointed this out to my husband who jumped into full on protective mode and automatically started to defend her. Saying that she had a rough childhood, her father was abusive, she has trust issues.

It’s odd watching him with the kids. He met them at the park and they looked like a perfect little family. Both of them the boy and girl look just like him. I think he still has feelings for her. I can see the way he looks at her. It doesn’t help that she’s recently moved back here and is adamant about him being a part of their lives. My husbands family seems to adore her and the kids even after everything that has happened..the kids I can understand, but her I can’t. My husband won’t talk much about it which is what bothers me because we usually talk about everything, but he’s been talking a lot with her. He seems to be lost in his own thoughts lately. I don’t know what to do. Is there anything I CAN do? I love him and I don’t want to lose him.

I honestly have no advice for you but I feel terrible for you.. this is going to be a steep hill to climb though. All you can do for him is be supportive and understanding. But don’t let your guard down, his ex may have finally told him about the kids because she has her own plan. I hope this isn’t the case but just in case keep your eyes and ears open.

Good luck to you.

Chpt. 1 DOES THIS SOUND ANY GOOD…?

Title: Getting There -The Vine Twins
By: Jenna K
I am writing this book… and i have gotten a few chapters in..
tell me what you think! thanks.
Needs work. i know. More detail…
Better story line..
And the format is not like this… i had to pull it all together so i wasnt spaced out
on this website…
so please give your comments. best one. gets best answer…lol

Chpt:1 The Start
“Nik. Nikki! Pick up the phone!” Lexa yelled to me as she entered my bedroom and woke me up.
Lexana Vine is my identical twin sister, my other half. Without her I would be completely lost! She understands me when no one does. She’s my best friend…
My name is Nicolette Vine, Nik or Nikki for short. I’m about 5”6 and I have naturally honey brown hair, and brown eyes. My sister looks just like me.
Were 16 years old, juniors at Bellwood High in *************, C.A. It’s January, the beginning of the semester.
Like most twins- we are very different. Lexa has a girly, preppy type of style and attitude.
I on the other hand, don’t. I guess you could say that I’m the laid back type. I’m not as confident as my sister. She’s comfortable in her own skin. And I’m not. I don’t know why either. It’s just me, I guess. I sat up quickly and answered the cordless phone charging on my bedside table. Cleared my throat. And spoke.
“Hello?” I asked. Still looking at Lexa standing in front of my now closed door walking slowly over to my computer desk.
“Hey Nikki its me.” I recognized my mother’s voice.
Let me cut in here…my moms name is Tracy and my dads name is David. They are both professional photographers (that’s how they met) they work a lot and work with celebrities from all over. When we were little Lexa and I used to get personal photos and headshots taken. Were really into acting. That’s our dream. To become famous and be on movies and TV shows. We’ve only landed in a few commercials when we were 8 and we’ve been completely connected to being on camera ever since. It’s in our blood.
“Oh hey mom what’s up?” I asked.
“Oh I was just calling to let you know that me and your father are going to be a little late coming home off work tonight. We have a big “17 magazine edition” were shooting of Ashley Tisdale.” She stated.
“Oh alright then have a good day!”
“Ok sweetie, Love you!” she hung up.
I hung up the phone and put it back on the charger. I looked over to Lexa now sitting at my computer desk online chatting on the Internet using my white laptop. (She has her own black one.) She turned around and looked at me closing it shut.
“What are you going to do today? She questioned.
“ Uh, I’m not sure yet…you?
She sighed. “I have to go to drive to Amber’s house rite now to work on that biology project Mr. Dasid assigned yesterday.”
“But, Its Saturday morning.” I said.
“Exactly which MEANS I only have 5 more days to work on it!” Lexa added. She got up quickly, out of my computer chair and headed for the door.
“Oh and before I go DON’T forget to feed Kay Jay! I’ll call you later on your cell.” She left. (Kay Jay’s our puppy we got last Christmas)
“Ok!” I called after her but she was already downstairs. Ready to go.
I finally got out of bed and looked over at my alarm clock. It read 10:27 am. I walked to the restroom Lexa and I share down the hall. Located rite next to our parent’s bedroom.
I reached the bathroom. Brushed my teeth, washed my face and put on some “covergirl” mascara and blush. Then I brushed through my golden brown hair and used bobby pins for a “half up half down” style I got dressed in my usual “at home” outfit skinny jeans and a white spaghetti strap with a button up blouse on top. I headed downstairs and grabbed my favorite cereal from the cabinet. Cheerios.
I sat there thinking of how I was going to spend my Saturday. When I finished eating, I cleaned my dishes and grabbed some grapes to snack on. Then I headed for the stairs.
I went to my room that is painted one of my favorite colors. Orange. My fuzzy bedspread and rugs are Brown my other favorite color. I chose the theme based on that…
I went to my new laptop that I got on Lexa and my last birthday that recently passed on December 4th. Checked my e-mail and saw that 6 of my friends were online.
Haley, Jenni, Melrose, Janae, Mark, and Noah.
I entered chats with three of my good friends there, online. Janae, Haley and Melrose. We spoke back and forth talking about school and this one new store that opened up at the mall Lexa and I work at 4 days a week.
I invited them all to come over so we could go to the mall for the day and hang out. Janae wrote back and said she didn’t have a ride over, so I got ready to go and pick her up.
As I got offline I got my money together and put it in my leather brown bag I usually use for school and switched out my folder and pencil packet for my wallet and my favorite book “Secrets of My Hollywood Life” I like to read when I’m bored. I put on my brown Chuck Taylor Converse, rushed downstairs, grabbed my keys, lo

its a good start for sure but its really thin and you haven’t gotten the flow quite right its like story (showing) pause (telling) story, pause…
what you have is a good but you’ll need to review and revise more.

My contact just asked a question about fetal movement and when it starts so it got me wondering, since I am having twins (my first pregnancy) should I expect to feel them sooner since there is twice the movement and less room? I know right now they have plenty of room to move since I am 14 weeks along. When should I expect to feel movement? I can’t wait!

I’m 19 weeks with twins and I’ve been feeling them since about 16 weeks (at least I think it was them), I thought I’d feel them earlier than most people but even now I don’t really get distinct movements that make me think OMG they’re moved. It feels more like butterflies.

I don’t know what to do. Is there anything I CAN do? I love him and I don’t want to lose him.

I am truly sorry. No-one is really at fault here. What I mean is no-one really did anything wrong. She walked out for whatever reason. She didn’t tell your husband about the kids probably because she was scared after what she did. Now you married him and didn’t know he had BAGGAGE. Not your fault or his really.

Unfortunately you are now placed in a situation you probably wouldn’t have chosen otherwise. You need to decided what position you going to take on this. Are you going to be the supportive wife and do all you can to help this work….so that you husband can be a daddy? Or are you going to fight everything and cause more problems? Or are you going to just say this is to much for me I’m done? I honestly don’t know where I would stand and cant say which choice is a better one for you. Because this situation is going to be a HARD one for sure.

Your husband should be understand how OFFAL this is for you. But then again he’s head is spinning. Maybe in time if you are supportive and Loving he will start to realize that he still has a great wife. Maybe have his kids over. Maybe have a sit down with his ex, your husband and yourself to make things work. If you are caring and understand he should be able to see that you are just trying to make this work and that you must really LOVE him if you are so willing to help this along. He does have kids now…….He cant deny that even though how he found out was a bit LOW.

Obviously don’t Put this woman down. He may not love her but he did have feelings for her at one time. So just say, "I’m sorry honey," I didn’t know her past. This is all going to work out. Be excited for him about his kids. Show him you care about them and are willing to be LOVING to them. All this will show YOUR LOVE TO HIM and that just like your Vows said…..FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE. Unfortunately this is the worse. Good Luck and maybe a prayer for some help from above could be helpful.

I remember watching this movie a few years back about this girl who visits her friend’s house when she is sick or something. Her friend had a twin brother and they apparently needed the girl to have their twins because the friend is sick, and for generations the twins were having twins with each other… I can’t find anything about this and it’s killing me! Has anyone else seen it?

umm…. this actually sounds really gross…. why are you looking for it again???
