A great big project

Well, I found out about this new project of mine on Wednesday and it has caused quite a stir in my household and will certainly change the direction of my work. Last week I went in for some routine health testing and check ups (which I don't do nearly often enough.) After discussing some of my concerns my doctor decided to send me in for an ultrasound to rule out uterine cancer, cysts and tumors.

We did find something in there, but it certainly wasn't anything I was expecting to find. I had myself all ready to hear news of the worst things but instead we found the beginnings of a BABY! What a SHOCK! And Yes, I know how it got there. That was the fun part. HAHAHA

The girls are excited, though Riley is a bit apprehensive about another baby. She is such a great sister though. Kate keeps asking when we are going to go to the store to pick the baby up. She said she also wants one for her, one for Riley and one for daddy. Let's just pray there is only ONE baby coming.

The baby is due in February and we are praying to make it to January. As you know, my pregnancies are riddled with complications and we would certainly appreciate any prayers and good thoughts you can spare. I will be setting up a separate blog for people to follow my family and pregnancy. I will post a link to that later if anyone is interested. But that way I can keep this blog more arts centered.

Well, Here we go! Wish me luck!

      Thanks Lois, but please don't wish that date on me.  I won't even come close as it is a good 2 weeks past my due date. I think I would have to go crazy if I am ever pregnant that long. HAHAHA

    First I just wanted to say how absolutely WONDERFUL, AMAZING, AND SELFLESS you are for providing us all this info. I hope you dont mind, but I shared your site on a jewelry forum, lampwork etc. I wanted to email you to ask your permission but couldnt find a way to do it. That is soooo exciting about the baby, omg, i can imagine being terrified at the something is in there, only to find out, ITS A BABY!!! CONGRATS AND BEST WISHES....HMMM, IM THINKING ONLINE BABY SHOWER!

      Kelly, that was very sweet. And I don't mind one bit. Share away. Thank you for sharing the link. I actually really appreciate it. And an online baby show is totally unnecessary, though it does sound fun.

      Yeah,  yeah, yeah! Thanks Debbie. Nope, this baby will be an Akron Baby. It might only be a couple of months old when we move though. And we still don't know where we will go. The girls are going to be great. Riley already is and I think Kate is going to be great since she is such a "little mommy" already.
