Wonder where I've been??

Well......me too!! it's been 2 yrs since I've been on this thing and I am GONNA do better! Starting today! I am sitting here trying to keep my eyes open so I will be back after while (maybe late this evening) and I promise to update!! Until then......

Apron Swap

I'm SO excited!!! This past spring I watched an Apron Swap go on via Cynthia's page. I was really jealous, lol. So, when I seen the Summer swap sign up's were open I decided what the heck, I'll give it a try. Now, there is no guarantee of what my attempt of an apron will look like (Lord, please let it be good) but I'm goin' in full force. I just thank heavens that if for some reason my apron doesn't turn out it is stated in the rules that I can BUY a HANDMADE apron to swap with. I'll keep you updated as this adventure unfolds!! ;)

P.S. Sign-ups are open until April 15th for anybody that wants to join in too!! Below find a link to the site with instructions to sign-up

Ok. Now now about the tagging..... I visit 2 or 3 pages at this time and they all have already been tagged, therefore, I'll catch ya next time!!

You mean that's suppost to go IN my mouth....

I know it's been a little while since I've posted, but I caught this picture this evening and just HAD to share it!! My poor little piggy gets as much of her milk on her as she does in her. It's really too cute, or is that just cause I'm her mommy, lol?? Time is flying by so quickly. Doesn't seem like she could possibly be a month old already. I feel so increadibly blessed to have this little blessing and I thank God for her ;)

What finger are you?

You Are the Index Finger

You are ambitious, driven, and capable. You aren't afraid to take responsibility for your actions - or place the blame on whoever deserves it. You are honest, free thinking, and objective. You see things in your own way - and you aren't afraid to let everyone know about it. You get along well with: The Thumb Stay away from: The Ring Finger

I would like to introduce....

Carlee Jo Priest

I'd like to introduce the newest addition to our family. Carlee Jo Priest was born February 5, 2008 at 11:36 am. She was 5 lbs 9 ozs and 18 inches long. We had a little bit of a ruff start, but we are doing well now. I went into the hospital on Sunday night for induction only to end up laying there untill Tuesday when it was finally decided I needed a C-Section. (reckon???) I really didn't want to have the C-Section, however, by the time Tuesday rolled around I was ready. Once the decision was made it was only a matter of time before Shawn and I heard the sweetest sound the Lord has ever made.....her cry. It was later that evening when the nursery discovered that Carlee's blood sugar was low. A newborns level is suppost to be over 40 and hers was 25. They put her in the NICU and started a sugar water IV. It took a couple days, but her level finally came up and her IV was FINALLY took out. THEN...little miss lazy starts having some trouble breathing. She was breathing so shallow that her oxygen levels were dropping, however, she overcome that as well. And as I said before, she is doing much better now. She is growing like a little weed. As of yesterday she weighed 6 lbs 2 ozs and has grown and inch and 3/8ths!! Well, below I've included a couple other pictures and I'll do my best to get more of her up in a timely manner. (if that's possible ;) )

A bed for Carlee

Well, finally, my little girl has a place to lay her head. I am so excited about getting her bed up that I just had to share a couple pictures. I'm 37 weeks today and I'm very ready for her to make her appearance. I go to the OB today, so I'll let ya know what he says.....
