Baby's heartbeat

It's real it is really real. I went to the DR with Angie Tuesday, since she is age 36 and has high blood pressure, they did an ultrasound just to be sure everything was ok, well it is a tiny thing only a speck at this time but it has a strong heartbeat, yep only ine but it is very strong per the tech who does these dozens of times a day. OMG a tiny heartbeat for a baby I never thought would be!! I was overwhelmed and stil choke up everytime I think of it!!

Sunday was Father's day and my husband's daughter called she and her husband live in VA with their beautiful daughters who are so into Soccer!! Sad to say we don't see them at all it's been 3 years, it is so hard for them with the girls and my big bad Marine has little time off that they can get this far away from home. We understand with the girls being teenagers and their own activities but it doesn't make missing them any easier. Of course we could drive up there too but it has gotten to where in our older age all we want to do is veg here at home after working all the time!! So Hi Tammy, Judd, Lindsay and Taylor!!!

only 1 more week till I get to veg in my pool all week I swear you will have to MAKE me lift a finger around the house, I plan a week of playing only!!! I cna clean and cook and all the wifely duties some other time! Daniel will be here all week and I'll have Kerry (my step grandaughter) one day to play with us too. Bobby says he may run a dozier for a friend of ours for a few hours and I told him go ahead, I am doing NOTHING!

Time to get dressed for that dreaded work! one of my bosses is on vacation, whew that is always a tough time, it means I have to cover two desks! but you know what they say about payback...hee hee he is due a much deserved rest tho! he works way to hard and worries way too much! hope he enjoys these days with his wife and family!!!

Smooches everyone

Happy Father's Day

I just spent 30 minutes typing the funniest blog ever and the electricity went off so guess it wasn't meant for me to post that one, so I am just going to make this time short and sweet I refuse to type all that again, Like I could remember it all anyway!!

we did Papa's day yesterday enjoyed it trememdously, a day with family is wonderful no matter what dayit is!!

Daniel is looking forward to spending a week here and we are too, so July 3rd hold on it's happening for real!! got to remember to pick up some icy pops for the freezer since we will be outside in the pool 99% of the time! Of course he's gonna want to play on the computer too, and lay around with his game boy so I will get some slow time too I am sure. Working on a baby blanket in some beautiful snow white Bernat Boucle Baby I won off ebay, it is turning out beautiful tho is a bit tough to crochet. My hook wants to hang some doesn't slide off real easy but that's ok I have till Feb to finish! yeah righ I have so many WIMs to do before that baby gets here!!

gotta go now in case the electricity goes off again, they MUST be working on the lines somewhere or they just want to piss people off getting ready to go to church..ha

I'm having another grandbaby!! YEAH!!

Wow it's been a while, My daughter called me Monday morning so very happy she is 36 and pregnant with her 1st child!! we are overwhelmed, she has wanted a baby forever, and has had so many female problems we NEVER thought it would happen. As soon as she goes to the DR we can start buying, ok so yesterday I bought a lamb blanket, I spent over an hour looking on line for a christening gown pattern knitted, found a couple hope Mawmaw is smart enough to do the pattern. and what if it is more than one, she has been on fertility drugs for almost a year!! we could have several, oh my!!

Right now I am into dishcloths, I joined this fab group on yahoo who does dishcloths, what a great way to learn different patterns and they are so quick. We did a KAL (knit -a-long) for a red dress representing women and heart attacks it was so much fun, just getting a few lines to knit each day and not having a clue what it was you were knitting then finishing and saying wow...

we started a new one yesterday, I am also stripping and staining my rocker, swing and glider on the patio, whew is that a job?? well gotta get back to work. Thanks for letting me share all my happy news, I wonder what Dano is going to say about a new baby at Mawmaw's house, think he'll be thrilled he's wanted a brother or sister this way he can have a cousin and still be the only one!! ha Mawmaw will still treasure him!! in a few weeks he gets to come stay a whole week wiht us, I can hardly wait we'll hav eso much fun swimming and playing and playing with the goats!!

Keep on Knitting...
