It's been awhile

I haven't posted in a while. Things have been pretty crazy around here as of late. The biggest thing is that I am now 9 weeks pregnant. I wasn't supposed to get pregnant for at least a year post surgery, but here I am. So far things are going well. I am not feeling well, but that is getting better. I was never sick when I was pregnant with Grayson, so this is all new. I am being careful about my nutrition, and have lost a couple more pounds. I am down 80 pounds since my surgery in September. This is all very exciting, but scary. I just want to make sure I do a good job taking care of this baby. I am not happy with my current doctor, so I am going to look for a new one. I don't think he got the implications of my surgery . He is nice, but just not for me.
LaRita and Gray are less than thrilled with the prospect of a new family member. I think it will be okay in time.
Aside from that, my mom is doing much better. She will not get well overnight, but she is making steady progress. A huge limb from the lot next to my driveway fell on my minivan a couple of weeks ago. It is in the shop. I found the person who owns the property, and sent him a letter. I paid to have a return receipt so I will know when he gets it. I don't have high hopes of getting anything out of him though. I guess there goes our rebate check. My insurance is giving us money to get it fixed, minus our deduct able. I think we may be able to get it fixed with that. Chris is a mechanic so he knows a guy who knows a guy. It is just an aggravating situation. I was thinking of getting a smaller car since gas is so high, but with another one on the way I guess not. It is also nice to have the van with my youth director job.
Gray is home sick today. He is better now, but he had a fever last night. He has missed so much school this year. Good thing it was only preschool.
I am going to try to post more now. Especially about the pregnancy stuff. Sorry I got so behind.

I'm happy you're having a new baby! Of course, I love babies. Obviously. LoL I had a dream that I told you and Mary that I was having another girl and you both said at the same time, "Me too." LoL Thinking of any names yet? My fifth little girl will be name Tessa Elise.
