new: obf june swap - gettin' dirty!
Comments (150)The baby will be here between Thanksgiving & Christmas. LOL That's how much we've narrowed it down! Seriously, the new date is November 25th, but my last 3 have all been 2-3 weeks overdue, so I honestly don't expect this one until mid-December. We had an original due date of December 15th, but that isn't lining up with how big I'm measuring, the baby's length..etc. So, we think that back at the first of March when I had the miscariage, that it was possibly twins...and I only lost one. My midwife says that there is no way to know for sure (I refuse any invasive tests beyond ultrasound), so we'll just see when this one decides to pop out. If it's earlier, then we know. The only thing we know for sure is that it doesn't have a winkie. LOL It'll be my luck that I'll carry PAST Christmas....I seem to have the gestation period of an elephant. UGH. LOL Okay...was that TMI?? :O)...See MoreNEW: obf june swap sign-up!

Comments (97)Carol-I posted a new July swap for you...sorry I have been so busy this week I didn't check in earlier. If you can post when one has been started hopefully you can use the one I just did for you. Thanks Astroknot not sure if Carol read your post. Margaret-I received my box and shame on me for not posting earlier. Please forgive me. My anniversary was today and I had to set the alarm clock and get up to dig for two ladies who buy alot of plants from me. It was a good morning but I am so tired. Was really hoping to do something really special with DH but it did not work out. I do hear some fireworks even though I cannot see them. LOL Anyway...Thanks so much for all my goodies, the gift certificate was way enough. Margaret sent: Body butter-Vanilla & cinnamon (I love this stuff.) Flag can cooler 6 pack refill for Pop-up note dispenser Pop-up note dispenser (I go through these like mad) Volleyball note pad (It could be a soccer but I need it) Flag Holder & Jumbo Glow stick(Dawson will take this from me) Two pig ears for the dogs(They loved these, I will have to get them some more) And my socks-I truly love good socks and these are airplus aloe infused....I know I will be searching for more of these Margaret it was just like Christmas opening your box and everything was wrapped so special. Thank you so very much for your kindness. I hope you and everyone had a fabulous 4th of July. Shirley...See Morenew: obf's- june white elephant swap
