I'm jealous of you because...

[JillMelissa]

I was thinking the other day about how there are so many things other people have that I'm jealous of (um, certain strollers come to mind :lol: ), when what I really need to do is start being happier with the things I have! I thought this would be a fun way for us to have pointed out to us some of the cool stuff (both material and non-material!) we have, as well as to maybe check out the journal of someone you ordinarily don't visit.

Take a peek at the journal of the person who posted before you. Go back a few pages, or read through it from the beginning if you're so inspired. Then come back to this thread and tell that person what's going on in their life that you're jealous of! It's always nice to be reminded of how lucky we all are with the wonderful things and people in our lives! And, maybe you'll read something here that piques your interest and makes you want to check out a new person's journal and meet someone new!

[~Andrea~]

what if they don't have a journal? I don't have one here (or at UB), but I can tell you that I am jealous of your brand new house :lol:

[MaryNH]

This is an awesome idea:) BBL to add more......Andrea....I am jealous that you only have one child. While I love both of my girls, it is so hard to do anything without feeling that one is getting slighted. I miss the days of just "one baby and me".

[AahRee]

I'm jealous of that gorgeous ring you just gave yourself for Valentine's Day (Diamonique or not, it's beautiful!) and of the fact that you just got to go STROLLER SHOPPING, which is pretty much my favorite type of shopping ever! :lol: (And Isabella and my Katie have the same pink sweater :biggrin: So I know you have excellent taste! :biggrin: )

[mcox]

I'm jealous of your brand new house Anne!! It is so pretty and I am very happy for you. Congratulations!!

[Nadine]

ITA- this idea is awesome and it can help to get to know ppl you wouldn't "meet" otherwise...

OK- what am I jealous of? I guess I am jealous of you having a low maintenance girl! She is adorable and fun to be and relatively easy to deal with...
And if that isn't true- then I am jealous of you sounding so calm, in control and not whining about your daily life....
It was great to visit your journal and I'll definitely come by to say hello...

[Shannan]

Here's what I'm jealous of Nadine, through all of your trials and problems, you seem like you have it all under control. Even living in a country that has more turmoil and is in the national news all the time...and yet you still live...not just survive but live your life with a sense of community that I do not have here. I'm going to continue to visit you and find out how life is going with you.

[mcox]

Hi Shannan, I am so jealous of your easy birth!!! I'm also jealous that you have a little baby to hold and mine is already 2!! :bawl: Oh yea, and your garden tub!! :lol: I hate my little tiny bathtub. :dead: I barely fit and there is no way Olivia and DH would fit too.

[mcox]

This is a great thread Jill. I am really enjoying getting to know new people. Thanks.

[Hilary]

I am jealous of Olivia's gorgeous curls!

[mcox]

I'm jealous of Madelynn's gorgeous LONG hair and those to die for eyes!!! :love1:

[Brooke]

I'm jealous that Olivia will fall asleep watching Nemo in your recliner! Even if she only did it once, that's more than Rebekah has ever done. And I'm jealous of Olivia's car. I want to get one for Rebekah but I don't want to pay for it!

[AahRee]

Brooke, I'm jealous that your mom lives so close to you. I miss mine. :( And I'm totally jealous of Rebekah's room. It's SO cute!!!

[mcox]

And I'm jealous of Olivia's car. I want to get one for Rebekah but I don't want to pay for it!


Brooke, I didn't pay for it. My parent's did, so be jealous of them. :lol:

[mcox]

Anne, I'm jealous of that picture in your signature. It is so beautiful!! Where was it taken? Is it close to where you live? If it is, then I'm REALLY, REALLY jealous!! :lol:

[AahRee]

I wish it was close to where I live, too! :lol: It's Santa Cruz, CA, at the Boardwalk. It's one of my favorite places! We live near the Pacific, but since we're off of Puget Sound, we don't get any waves here at all. :(

I'm jealous of the fact that Olivia is wearing a hat in that picture in your signature, and not trying to tear it off! :lol: Katie used to wear them, but now I'm lucky if I can get one to stay on for 5 minutes. :rolleyes:

[Lette]

Anne... I'm jealous that you're cute little girl's birthday is in May instead of December like mine and my daughters. :lol:

Ps. I also love your new house, but someone already posted that! :)

[mcox]

Lette, I'm jealous of Lexie's hair and of your beautiful house.

[Kaybee711]

Lette- I am of course jealous that you have two beautiful children.

Here's my journal:

GOOD LUCK! :lol:

[AahRee]

Lette ~ You and I have the same birthday, so I know exactly what you're talking about! :lol:

Ker ~ I'm jealous of Mark and his determination to have a baby with you. Phil would have given up long ago, and I think it's so great that he's as passionate about it as you are. :nod: And I'm also jealous of your adorable Snoopy and Sophie. They're such cuties!

[Nichole]

Anne, I'm jealous of the fact that you knitted those gorgeous longies for Katie. I need to get back into knitting, but I don't think I'm brave enough to start such a tricky project. :)

[Nichole]

Oh, and Lette - your daughter and I share a birthday, so I know what you're talking about, too! :)

[Karri]

Nichole - i am jealous that you live in San Diego. That is where I've always wanted to live :(

[Nicole]

Karri~ I'm jealous that you are a SAHM, I know how hard it can be for you at times with all 3 kiddos and how hard you worked to get there and it's so what I want too. And I'm also jealous that Aidan doesn't get much fast food, 2 times at McD's wow!, we are fast food freaks :nono:

[Kaybee711]

Karri- I am jealous that you are a SAHM. Both of it, the SAH and M parts! :lol:

[Kaybee711]

Damn I'm too slow around here!

[mcox]

Nicole, I'm jealous of all of Abby's beautiful clothes. BTW, I'm watching 3 outfits you have on ebay right now. ;)

[Nicole]

Michelle~ If I would have known that you wanted some clothes I would have sold them to you, if you win anything I'll combine shipping and do it for as little as possible ;)

I'm jealous of the fact that Olivia is such a good girl who sleeps well AND will do well for professional pictures!! And the curls kill me, why didn't Abby get mine :tantrum:

[mcox]

Thanks Nicole. ;) Actually the last time we had her pictures made she cried. :( We were still able to get a few good ones but nothing like we got when she was smaller. And as far as sleeping well goes, this week has not been good. I love her curls too. :) and I'm so suprised Abby didn't get your curls. I guess she got her hair from Scott.

[Shannan]

Michelle, I'm jealous of Olivia's beautiful smile. Aiden will smile but not as big or as bright...yet...

[Cat]

Shannan I am jealous you have a garden tub!

[Jennifer]

Cat I'm jealous you live in Scotland! I know it's probably not so cool when you live there full time but it looks so pretty in pictures.

[JillMelissa]

Jennifer, I'm jealous that you went to Hawaii for your honeymoon. I've always wanted to go there!

[Marcella]

Jill - I'm jealous that you are a SAHM, and that you're building a gorgeous new home.

Here's my neglected journal :blush:

[AahRee]

Marcella, I'm jealous of the spa gift certificate you got for Valentine's Day! It's been SO long since I've done something like that, and it sounds like heavan. I hope you have an awesome time! :biggrin:

[Brooke]

Anne - I'm jealous that you are a SAHM and that you're building a new house and that you have a dr that listens and really wants to help. I can't seem to find one of those around here.

[mcox]

Brooke, I'm jealous that your mom likes to keep Rebekah while you work because my mom won't keep Olivia. :(
