Hmmm Where Have I Been?

Well to tell you all the truth, I haven't really been gone! Why haven't I been blogging? Well... On May 19th I found out I was expecting. I went to the hospital and had my blood drawn to confirm. When my doctor called later that day they did confirm that I was pregnant. Oh and by the looks of your levels you are probably having twins. Well, that was some news. I was happy I was confident, having twin nieces I was sure that I could handle it. My husband was surprised but agreed that it was something we would handle pretty easy. Two weeks later I went in for my first ultrasound. When we started I told that doctor that my other doctor said it was likely that I was having twins due to my blood levels. He said, No, Triplets. WHAT? I said. Right here he showed me. 1, 2, 3. Well it was a good thing I was laying down. He didn't give me that news slowly at all. I was excited but overwhelmed. My husband on the other hand was having a hard time dealing with the thought of three. (He came around quickly though.) The next ultrasound I went in and told the doctor right away if he said there were 4 I would never come back. But there were still 3. So now two more ultrasounds later, I am 10 weeks and they are all doing great, kicking and waving like mad (not that I feel it yet). So most of my free time has been devoted to planning and researching. As I'll probably be on bed rest later on I need to get things done early. Good Bye craft room... Well at least we wont have to worry about getting a room ready, other that the crib setups. Anyway, I am going to try and get some crafting in before I don't have any time for it! So hopefully I'll be able to post more in the future.
So until next time ~ Happy Summer

Thanks so much Audrey. I'm a huge planner/organizer, so hopefully that will help when it comes to taking care of 3 infants!
