WOW! Thank you to Okie!!! ...and reason for being MIA

I just realized that not only did I reach 200 followers on my blog today, but I also just became #40 on the Cricut Top 40 list!!!!  Now...I'm sure that I won't be able to hold my #40 spot for long, but it sure was nice to see that, even if it's only for a moment in time!   I have to thank Okie for posting about my Pink ATG giveaway on her blog which has been driving people to my blog in droves!  I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your support Okie!!!

I'm sorry for the lack of creating and posting lately.  It's been kind of a roller coaster couple weeks around our household.  I found out almost 2 weeks ago that we are expecting our third child.  To say we were a little surprised by this would be an extreme understatement (I am turning 41 in November and have an almost 6 year old and 10 year old).  Once we accepted this we started to get a little excited and started to anticipate reliving all of those wonderful pregnancy and newborn moments!   Well...this past Monday I started bleeding and it's continued quite heavily this entire week.  The good news is that I haven't been experiencing any pain or cramping.  We've been to the doctor and have had blood taken and need to go back tomorrow morning for them to draw some more blood so that they can compare the hormone levels.  So...until Saturday morning all I have to do is lay in bed and try to relax.  For those of you who know me well.....relaxing does not come easy to me not normally a part of my vocabulary.  I am trying to stay positive, but I have to admit that I'm scared.  I know that whatever is meant to be will be, but I would appeciate any extra prayers and pixie dust that you might be willing to send our way.

  17. Melissa, sending you lots of prayers, positive thoughts, pixie dust and a big ((hug)). I hope things go well for you. Please take care and follow doctor's orders. I know it's hard for us moms who are on call 24/7 but at a time like this it is okay to be selfish and just take care of yourself. So put your feet up and rest & relax. :)
