A New Addition to the Herd

Congratulations Jo!!


And YES for whoever asked LillyCat is Johanna's mother.

I read this whole thread with a big grin on my face - it was quite a surprise, since, like so many others, I was expecting a new 4-legged addition. I'm so happy for you! You're the youngest 38-year old I know, and you take such good care of yourself that you shouldn't have any problems.

I secretly wished for a girl too, only because I had no brothers and my dad left when I was 10, so boys/men were alien creatures to me and I was afraid I wouldn't know how to raise one! I didn't dislike boys, I just wanted something I could understand better. (Phred - you forgot one thing - men are very handy to have around for killing scary bugs too! ;) :D )

Hope to see you and your tummy at the Memorial Day dog park meeting! rub-rub-rub

OMG I go away for a weekend and look at what I missed! Congrats! I'm so excited for you :)

Oh joy and happiness to you Johanna!! I wish you a happy, healthy baby of either sex! Get lots of rest if you can.

Things to come.....see picture

sorry it didnt attach!

Oh Johanna!!!! Congratulations sweetlady!!!

Whilst everyone is thinking PINK, I am with Phred - I like Boy Babies - but I think that ANY BABY would be a welcome addition to our world (oh, sorry,to YOUR world!!! ) :D

Hugs and Love

Congratulations, Johanna. I am very happy for you and hope everything keeps going smoothly and safely.

I am expecting my first grandniece in late June. :)

:D :eek: :D Congrats Johanna!!!! This thread really surprised me :eek:

Your 2-legger will have a very BIG special angel watching over him/her :) ;)

Congratulations!!

I have many nieces and two nephews. I have mentioned my oldest neice in another thread about her pit bull Bella.

When she, at the tender age of 29, learned that she had adult onset diabetes, insulin dependent, I started calling her my little baby kitty. It so suited her.............she just needed to be hugged, held and reassured - with this huge adjustment to her life ahead of her that none of us could do for her.


She will always be my little baby kitty - such a loving girl with a heart so big and it seems God is filling it lately with tough calls for her to deal with.

Yes, let's call Johanna's baby -"baby kitty" for now - and promise that only strong love, reassurance and security awaits it - boy or girl.

What a wonderful blessing, Jo! I'm so excited for you!

Don't forget to take a prenatal vitamin supplement! (That is the extent of my knowledge about pregnancy, so I thought I'd share! ;) )

Keep us updated! And you will be in my prayers during this special time!

Congratulations, Johanna!!! What wonderful news! I was browsing this forum, because I was posting the news that I will be a new grammy in October ... and I am only 40! :eek:

Best wishes for a healthy, happy baby ... and we need LOTS of updates!!!!

(((HUGS)))

:)

Oh WOW!!!!!! :eek: :D :D :D

That was NOT what I expected to read, but I am SO happy for you!!!!! Blessings for you and your little one and I'm thinking pink!!!!
:D

Looking forward to seeing you in May and I PROMISE I won't rub. :D

WOW! You guys are absolutely the best! Some of you have made comments that have really helped me right now, truly. I would go into detail, but water works **need** to be turned off for now, or, I might dehydrate. :)

Lilith, what a wonderful picture, and it will be just about right on the mark at my house, too!


Thanks for being such a support for me. I wish you all lived in my neighbor hood, so we could hang out all together all the time. Course, that might make it kinda like a giant dog park....and that might keep my baby awake sometimes. :p

Congratulations, Johanna!! :D
