Alright Kandice (bakermommy), when's your birthday?! We share the same week! I will be 30 in 3 weeks too (or 29 for 3 weeks as you say, LOL!). Mine is July 3rd.

Bakermommy - I live in Oklahoma, too! We aren't Okies by birth, but my DH and I moved here in 2010 for his job. We are in Edmond and like it a lot except for the tornado season and of course, July and August.

Kandice and Aubre - this is off topic, but my DH has been asked if he wants to set up an office for his firm in Oklahome City. We currently live in London, UK, and have been here for 15 years. we are both British. I love the US and would normally move in a flash, but am not sure if relocating just before having twins is a good idea. Do you both like Oklahoma?

Robin – Mine is July 4th, so I hate to say it but haha you will be 30 before me . :lol:

Totally kidding. I really am holding on to this 29 though. I have been told that your 30’s are some of your best years. So here’s hoping.

Aubre – I live in S. OKC (not the bad part lol). I work downtown though, so we aren’t too far off. Who was your RE? I was born and bred an Okie! Tornado season is a little crazy. Fingers crossed, not too bad this year. Summer last year was miserable from what I hear. I had the babies, so I never got out in it. This year is already looking like it’s going to be another hot one. The weather is just so back and forth here which I’m sure you have already experienced.

Krisite- I love it here. Very laid back and slow pace. Cost of living is super cheap too. Well when you have twins nothing comes cheap, but….. It’s a good place to raise kids. We have some really good school systems and people are really friendly. I don’t know much about the UK, but I think it would be a good move. When are they wanting you guys to do this and do you know exactly where?

HAHA! Only by 13 minutes! I was born at 11:47, my dad was SO mad my mom wouldn't hold out another 13 minutes!

She'd only been in labor for 30+ hours, what was another 13 minutes :lol:

I love it here! Like I said, tornado season can be a little if-y and it does get really hot here in the summertime, but we are happy here and it's a great place to raise a family. If you end up moving here, we should get together - I could show you around a bit! (Plus, I'm not going to lie - I would love to have another twin mama living nearby!) Also, many people who work in OKC live in Edmond (my hubby works in OKC) so there would be a possibility that you would be living here. It's about a 15 minute commute for DH.

Bakermommy - My RE was Dr. Reshef at Baptist. I delivered there, too. Who was yours? :lol:

at "not the bad part" of S. OKC

Yep, the weather is insane here. We were back east when the bad nasty hot part of summer hit last year. We will be back east again this year for it. Funny how I keep planning trips back east to visit when the weather is 113 degrees here...

Dr. Reshef was mine too!!! Such a small world. Smart girl for booking those trips then. It's nice to get a break from the heat for a little while.
