Whoever claims your swap is it! Let's just say I won't let it go unclaimed!

OMGoodness, those puppies are SOOOOO cute!!! We need a puppy at our house, my boys would LOVE it, just have to convince DH, lol..

I was wanting to comment before on sawithchicks.... sooo sorry your kiddos are sick!! I have young kiddos, too and it can be sooo stressful... do you run a humidifier?? It seems to really help mine, I can put essential oil in the the little reservoir thingy and it also seems to help their breathing.. I'm also a fan of putting vicks on their chests when they're a little bit older ( at least a year, the label says 2, if they're younger I use a really really light layer)...

LOTS of swapping today, obviously if someone is going to get a wildcard swap, wowsa!!

I am getting VERY excited for the NYDH!!! Have to get the basement cleaned out for the bators and a brooder area, since DH gave me the ok to use the unfinished part, woohoo!!

We are now 2 months into this thread and we would like to make sure that everyone is meeting their obligations in a timely manner. If you have claimed eggs before Nov. 16th (unless the offer stated there would be a delay) and have not received them or a DC# that they have been sent, please PM me with the details. If you have claimed PP and it has not been sent within 3 days, also let us know. We will try to make sure we keep on top of any trends.

Here is the link to the spreadsheet to see the results:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Am7IlDTXygsBdFBSanFsNDJRamN4THlUT3dMOHowWHc#gid=0


I have finally finished a summary of all the swaps since the beginning of this thread up to Nov. 15. It is sorted according to each swapper and includes the swaps you claimed and the ones you promised. It can be accessed here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Am7IlDTXygsBdGZ5Vi1ta0lFRmY4UHhiRGhYdHFpcXc
Disclaimer:This spreadsheet is for reference only. I believe all are valid swaps, but I may have missed a roll back or two. If you find a mistake, let me know and I will investigate it.


Here are this week's current standings as of 11:30PM EST, Sun. Dec. 2. For all potential new swappers, we welcome your participation, but please read the rules on page 1, post #1 of this thread.

Game #1 - Whenever someone goes over 7 swaps, they lose 2 swaps the following week. The first person to catch it and post "Jinx"- (name of person going over), gets an extra swap in the current week. If crazypetlady (CPL) goes over, everyone gets an extra swap that week, and the first person to catch her and post "Jinx-CPL" gets a special prize of eggs from CPL. Start stalking!

Congrats to WVstruttin for catching CPL going over!

CPL went over this week, so everyone gets 8 swaps this week!


Game #2 - Whoever claims the 50th, 75th, and 100th swap of the day (yes, I think we will get up that high this spring or before) will win an extra wild card swap to be used in the winner's week of choice.

Congrats to caj1985 for being the 50th swapper on Sunday!

Those in red are done swapping until 12:01 EST on Sun. Dec. 9. Those in yellow are getting close to a limit.

Below is a list of the new swappers that still have to complete their initial 7 swaps, so are limited to one swap at a time until each one is verified. Once you have been cleared by crazypetlady, kraftyladies, babymakes6 or madamwlf for another swap, you may claim another, regardless of what my list says. I don't keep track of whose swaps have been verified, just the swappers that need to have that done. My list is only published once a night, but your swapping status may change a few times during the day. Once all of your 7 initial verified swaps are completed, your name will be moved to the big list. I may not have everyone's name here that is already swapping, but all new swappers will be added here until I hear differently. As long as all your previous swaps have been completed and verified, you are good to go! Happy swapping!

Welcome to our newest swappers - adjduncan, cracrzy4chicks, and emrldgrn1! We're glad you've joined us!

You asked for it, and here it is - swap totals since the beginning of the thread for the new swappers!

x2 on the humidifier.... I don't think my kids could sleep with a cold without one. I use it all the time. I have seasonal eczema and we have gas heat so it just kills my hands. The humidifier helps with my allergies too that the dry air does NOT help.

Told my hubby the other day, I NEVER had eczema this bad till we got married. I never had gas....never will if I can help it....

I haven't tried it personally, but know people who swear by it - put the Vick's on the bottom of their FEET and then put on a pair of heavy wool socks. Really works to ease the coughing and let them sleep.

Quote: I have read that too.... but only do it on older kids for some reason.
