And.....YES...that ticker up there is for real!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let me start with an apology for no photos in my return debut post. I've got nothing and it was a last minute decision.

Moving on to my excuses....all of which are extremely valid as I'm sure you'll agree.
*first of all, our computer got very sick with a virus and had to spend some time at the doctors so rather than uploading pictures to Josh's laptop everyday, that he would eventually force me to remove, I just said to heck with it!
*While away at the doctor, my computer's memory was cleared and restored and I've lost every single blog address I had in my favorites because of that (and because I had been too lazy to add them to my blog or put them on delicious or one of those other handy things that I have no idea about.) So if you're reading this and I've ever visited or commented on your blog, please leave your blog address in a comment so that I can add it back to my blog list. Please!
*The holidays were very busy, too. Let's not forget that! I was feeling down. Didn't decorate and things around here were too boring to talk about on a blog.
*About half way through January to halfway through February, I was not feeling so hot. Thank God I wasn't in as rough of shape as the computer, but I was bed bound for a few weeks!
*Since then I've been exhausted and sleeping a lot. (It's a low iron situation and we're working on it.)
*Since beginning to feel better toward the end of February/beginning of March, I've been paranoid that if I blogged I'd leak the secret and jinx us.
*In March, we started remodeling the attic to make room for Baby Girl Myers and things have pretty much been non-stop since then. I think the iron is beginning to take effect, but who would know when we are going, going, going?

So I figured that since we found out this week that Baby Myers is a girl and we also took the plunge with a registry, I might as well get back on here and share the news. I do hope that if you read this you'll pray for us. I never feel safe as I'm sure many of you can understand. We are SUPER excited though and trying to just be happy and worry-free as best we can, as we know that's best for the little one.

I think this should cover it for shocking news and elaborate excuses. I'm going to do my best to be back tomorrow....with something!!! Maybe you can help out with names??!!
