Ax News

Well. I have some news, and now that all of my immediate family know, I can tell all my lovely readers (W00T!! All 7 of you now!).

Come September 2008, we will be joined in the Ax Household by another wee set of Ax footsteps pitter-pattering up and down the halls. Yes folks, that's right:

I'M GOING TO HAVE A BABY!!!


{sigh} This has been an emotional rollercoaster, to say the least. Who to tell, when to tell them, how long to wait, etc. I don't remember being like this last time, but that was over 7 years ago, and my memory sucketh.

So...with this news comes lots of changes around here...new budgets will be discussed, home improvement plans lay in waiting, belly shots, name polls, furniture purchases, lions and tigers and bears, OH MY!! And you're going to get the brunt of most of it! You'll get to tag along on our journey, all the while helping me by just letting me get stuff out. It may get ugly folks - don't lead yourselves to believe that this will be all roses and kittens. But it'll be a fun ride!! So stay with me...grab a glass of your favorite merlot or iced green tea or Diet Coke, a plateful of whatever you're craving at the moment (I fully support sympathy cravings, you know), and read along with my daily/semi-daily record of our lives during this time.

OMG!!!

Congrats!!!

I am SO excited!

Now I have a baby to look forward to.

Do we know if I'm gonna be an aunt or an uncle yet?

I feel a baby afghan being started or maybe a quilt...your choice.

I will keep Baby CattyAx in my prayers.

Woo Hoo!!! This makes up for having to be off the Internet since Sunday to find out this phenomenal news!

Ok, so I've been waiting for you to mention it here since you left the comment on my blog earlier. I'm guessing you've gotten rid of all your maternity clothes from before - you want mine?
