Baby is coming!!

My daughter is due to have her 4th child any day now. I am getting pretty excited. She is doing amazing but very ready to hold this sweet baby. This pregnancy was definitely an answer to prayers for their family so that makes it even more precious! Her children 7, 5 and 3 are excited to say the least. She is a "real woman" hahaha..and has her babies at home without even a midwife. It does help that her husband is an EMT and her mother in law (across the street from them) is a nurse and father in law is an MD. And I, well, I like to think I am pretty savvy  in the medical world. After all, I have had cancer. I just know that she will want me there and need much of my wise advice. Who knows, maybe she will want me to deliver that baby. I doubt if I will do the episiotomy (do they even do that anymore?).  I am ready.....

As for me...just been working in my studio. I cleaned and organized the studio, although to outsiders you probably would not notice any difference. But I know...Everything has its place now!  My husband seems to think he can just walk in my studio when I am creating, but today I made sure he knows that he really needs to knock when leaving the house...into the garage (studio) and out the door.  How rude!! Good thing I married a patient man. He would love to park a car in there. Ain't gonna happen honey!

Weight loss journey update...lost 1/4 of an ounce after 2 weeks diet and excercise. Went out tonight for beer and mexican food, and lots of it! I checked into lap band surgery today. You have to meet an awful lot of requirements to be able to have  insurance pay for the procedure. Crap! My husband said he would knock my teeth out, but I told him that would never stop me! I will just have to carry on...

So between pinning, facebooking and eating, I am a busy girl. I will be checking in soon..hopefully with news of a new baby and a 30 lb. weight loss.  I can dream..
