I'm back...

....a couple months shy of a year later! What happened? Well... just a few days after I posted my last blog I found out that we were expecting baby #2. It took us a little by surprise... wait... that's a lie!!! It down right shocked us. While we wanted to add to our family, right then was quite what we were expecting. After all, we had a 5 year plan. After much trouble getting pregnant with Ashlinn we were not expecting it to happen out of the blue.


Anyway, the pregnancy wasn't a normal pregnancy in regards to what most women experience. It started off with morning sickness which was the first sign to me that something was up. Around the 14th week I started experiencing the same problems I had with Ashlinn's pregnancy except this time around it was much worse. I'll spare the details from the hell that I endured because quite frankly, I'd rather not remember the hell I went through.

So, onto the best part...we welcomed another little girl into our family. On July 9, 2009 our precious little girl, Emersyn Jean was born at 5:20pm. She weighed 7lbs 3oz and 19 inches long.

She is such a great baby and if it wasn't for the occasional squeal from her you wouldn't even know we had a newborn in the house.

Big sister is finally starting to adjust to not having all of the attention. I thought I was going to lose my mind for a little while. Although I thought she'd want to be more of a helper...she's just not that into it.

So, that my friends is where I've been for the past 10 months or so. I have gotten back into my card making and will hopefully be updating on a regular basis again as I am working on more fun projects for upcoming craft shows :)

Stay tuned!!!
