A New Addition to the Herd

Congratulations Johanna!
I’m so happy for you.
Soon you’ll have something like this crawling thru your doggie door.

This is my granddaughter Mackalyn.

I like the name Lily, or Lilyana, Liana.

CONGRATULATIONS JOHANNA

I'm so thrilled for you - take things as easy as you possibly can. A friend of mine who is 39 on Tuesday is expecting her second baby on April 22nd - her first baby was 16 in February!!!
She's found feeling tired the worst thing to contend with - so lots of feets up for you young lady!!
I wouldn't say I'm biased towards girls - but maybe the colour of this will give me away!!
Keep us up to scratch on how things progress baby and Mummy wise - any strange foods you get a yen for are always interesting!
{{{Hugs}}} across the miles to our newest Mummy-to-be!

W:eek:W!!!
I'm so happy for you Cataholic!:D
I thought for sure you were going to add another tux kitty to the herd!
Is this the reason that you promised to be good until April 1st?
Are you past morning sickness yet? That is the worst part of pregnancy in my opinion.
Remember to never serve your kitties tuna for breakfast when you have morning sickness, I learned that the hard way.:p
Also make sure that someone else does litterbox duty for you.

Samantha has some advice for your tux herd.
Dear Tuxies,
Enjoy mommy's lap while you can, soon it will disappear completely!
If the baby cries and mommy doesn't hear it make sure and yell at mommy and give her "The Look" complete with airplane ears.
When the baby is big enough to start crawling after you, make sure you have lots of high perches and hidey holes you can run to if needed.
Samantha has survived living with 3 babies over the years and the good news is that babies grow up to give you more love, hugs, pets and treats!:)

Oh, Johanna, I am so happy for you! :D :D Congratulations!:D

{{hugs}} :)

p.s. I'm thinking pink! :)

Oh Johanna, what wonderful and special news! My heart has really ached for you with all your trials and tribulations, and I'm so happy for you now to hear this news. I know it must not be easy dealing with the effects of pregnancy, but how fun to plan and look forward to that miraculous day!

*hugs* to you, and be SURE to keep us fully updated :D

I had a great aunt named Indiana Markley who was a rum runner during Prohibition.....hmmm....maybe not...;)

Congratulations Johanna!! I wish and prayer for a healthy happy baby( either way) You are in for a changed life and blessed, just remember enjoy even the frustrating times as they grow way to fast.
As to the squirt issue I had one of each it doesn't matter (especally at the doctors office) as to names how about some capitals ,Dallas, Rio ,or Helen (helena)
My kids had unusual names at the time now every one has them, Clarissa and Benjamin.
Read baby name books and choose one that you want you child to be as an adult. If Ben had not been named as he was he may not have lived. I beleive his name made him strong. Clarissa'a made her artsy.

No wonder you've been so quiet here lately;)

Since I've always wanted a little girl too, I'm thinking PINK!

And I agree with Phred and Amy:
