Baby News

I had a doctor appointment today and everything is looking great with the baby (who, by the way, is still unnamed). Because I am on Heparin (a blood thinner), we will probably have to schedule and induction prior to my due date. I would rather just go into labor naturally, but it is too dangerous being on the blood thinners. I have to be off of them for 24 hours before delivery. Hopefully the baby will give us at least that much notice--you never know with my kids. All is going well, though, and I have faith that we will have a healthy, happy baby at home within the next 33 days. YEAH!!!

A True Artist

I don't know if this is a famous quote or if I just came up with it myself today but here goes: "A True Artist can find his canvas anywhere." And just to prove it, here is a picture of Bo's art during sacrament meeting today. As you can see, he has used my enormously pregnant belly as his empty canvas. He had a great time, though, and it kept him quiet for a few minutes.






Another true artist: Melanie


This is the purse that she made me for the pay-it-forward game. I love it and I've used it everyday since she gave it to me. The picture is bad, but the bottom of the purse is light and dark grey and the top band is bright pink. I have to talk Wee One out of stealing it everyday, but that's okay. She likes it too. I'm excited to get going on the projects for my own pay-it-forward. I still have one person left to respond, so if you haven't done it yet, get on it.
