Finally in the mood to write again....
I know, I know, it's been over a month since I have added a post. So much has been going on since Christmas. First, I found out I was pregnant, we decided to buy a larger house, we found a larger house and put an offer on it, then I lost the baby and had to have a D&C. We decided we will still get the larger house - we need it.

Losing the baby was very difficult. When I first found out I was pregnant (not planned by the way) I was not too happy about it. I am going to turn 40 this year and Amanda will be starting college in the fall. After a while though I got used to the idea and even started to get excited about it. I was starting to shop for maternity clothes and look at baby furniture on line and we had a room picked out in the new house that would be the nursery. So when we went for my ultrasound, which was being done to help determine the exact due date, we were shocked and upset to find out that the baby did not have a heartbeat. I was very depressed that whole weekend.

I am feeling better now, both physically and mentally. I have decided NOT to try again. I feel like I am getting too old and we already have 4 daughter's between us. Of course I was really hoping for that boy that I always wanted, we even had a boys name already picked out.

Bill had to leave this week to go to Florida to work on insurance claims for the tornado damage. He called last night and said he had closed 4 claims in one afternoon and would get to come home sooner than expected - like this weekend! That was great news!!! We have so much to do around the house still to get it ready to sell. We also have to finalize getting all the paperwork in for our new mortgage loan and I really need him here right now.

I'll try harder to keep up with this blog from now on. I do enjoy keeping it.
