Blanket closer to getting done!

I woke up at about 5:30 this morning and could not get back to sleep so I'm on here making an update. First of Happy Thanksgiving and yay 4 day weekend for me! Boy do I NEED that. Well I went to my Doctor n Monday, everything seemed fine, though I have to go back in for another Ultrasound in a month. Apparently my little guy was not cooperative when it came for them to check the heart they couldn't get a good look at it and so want me to go back in so they can get a better view. Now what they had a clear view of looks great. Also I am at 22 weeks and have YET to gain a single pound, wow. Now my Doctor has said nothing about that fact and so it must be fine. I have noticed that places I was a little chubby am not really anymore. Seems my weight is just shifting form one place to another. I'm also feeling him kick a lot more now. I am really curious how Connor is going to react when he finally feels the baby move. I imagine hes going to freak out.

Lastly my blanket I had a goal to finish the cross stitch part of it by well today. I did it! Now on to the back stitching :). Once again I tweaked these photos with photoshop, the colors was really dull in my photo which is not like the blanket at all! bad lighting I'm thinking. Now I am going to follow the directions and the the back sitiching of one color at a time, first off pink.

Sorry took so long to update!

Boy has it been an interesting few weeks. Works been.. well not the greatest to say the least. I could go into a whole thing about it, but wanted to do it in a non public post but do not know if you can do that on blogger.  So I;ll just leave it there for now. I had my big ultrasound  two weeks ago and yes I am definitely having another boy. we've agreed on the name Aiden, middle name to will be Hawaiian like other son, whose middle name means watcher of the winds.

Sunday, snow, cross stitch and all that

I am having a hard time keeping up with posts! Work has taken my life over. This last week I worked 56 hours AND hit the half way mark in my pregnancy. I've been extra moody and crying a bit right now, just so very tired and the in-laws will probably be here Tuesday. Thet fky by stand by so you never know. It'll be a shock for them though they are from Hawaii and just take a look of the picture I took yesterday morning!

My nephews and niece have never been around snow so this could be interesting/ memorable. I worked 8 hours yesterday and hubby hasd to work to so I dropped my son off at Grandma's who the moment got out of the car started throwing snow balls at me :).

Short cross stitch update haven't had time to do much. Have three squares to go then back stitching will definitely get this done before March! My next big project will be making Christmas stockings for my kids and if I'm very motivate for hubby and myself!






lastly if anyone else has a pinterest account.. something I can't seem to stop using so addictive.  here's my account:
