Baby!

I have been incredibly distracted lately for personal, family reasons. My mother has a bit of dementia (or Alzheimers, not sure) and my daughter has been through three miscarriages in one year. Oh and we lost both of our dachshunds. What a year 2009 was! I hope never to repeat that!

On the plus side, though, my distraction lately has been because my daughter is now 12 weeks pregnant! I am going to be a grandma! Needless to say we are extremely excited over here and that's about all we're thinking about. These 12 weeks have been nail-biting since she's had so much trouble but all is well now! The ultrasound today shows a normal-looking baby of indeterminate sex. The next ultrasound will be the BIG one where they find out the sex of the baby and I know if I should buy pink or blue. Yes if this is a girl she will have a ton of pink and purple.

In January we also adopted a puppy from the South Lake Animal League here in lake County Florida. He's a great mixed breed dog. We love him so much! We went from having two small (mostly short) dachshunds to a TALL larger breed dog. I never had to worry about food on the counter before. This guy can reach the counter with no problems.

That's what's happening in the personal life of the Homeschool Radical!
