Think she's found a home!

A girl at my Mom's work said she'd take the kitten home and see how her and her other cat get along, and if it goes well, they'll keep the kitten. Momma said she has 3 girls, so I have no doubt that the wee one will get all the attention and love that she needs. If you all would please continue to pray that the transition goes well, I would greatly appreciate it; but I feel quite relieved that at least a highly potential home has been found for her.

Update and Advertisement

My dr visit went fine today, but I have no progress to report. The doctor said that he was head down, and I don't think LJ liked being poked in the head!

In other news, while Gary and I were out today...on a back road that we NEVER take at that time of the day...we passed by a little baby kitten stranded on the side of the road. The poor thing looked simply terrified, and I couldn't, in good conscience, just leave it to die. So Gary, being the big-hearted guy he is, told me to turn around and we picked it up. We were going to take it to the animal shelter, then Gary reminded me that both of our cats came from there, and everytime we've gone there all of the cats seem to be sick. So I then I decided I'd have to take it upon myself to find her a good home.



So if you are interested, please contact me (either phone, e-mail or blog comment is fine). I'm willing to throw in all the "stuff" that you'll initally need to take care of her (litter box, litter, food, food bowls, toys, etc.), and I'll also pay to have her spayed once she gets old enough. I'm really desperate to find her a good home. She really has a sweet disposition. She seems to be equally content to sit on a soft towel as she is to sit on your lap or in your arms. She's very tolorant, and I haven't heard a single hiss from her (even when Nala hissed and growled at her). The only time shes "cried" so far, was because she didn't really know how to lap the water out of the bowl. So I got an eyedropper, gave her some water, and she was content once again. Even if you can't provide a home for her, I'd appreciate it if you'd help me by praying that the right owner for her comes along.

Time is getting away from me!

Goodness, time is simply flying by for me. My camera battery died, and I'm not exactly sure where I put the charger when we moved the office from one room into another. We're in the process of organizing the office, and of course we MUST have it before the baby gets here...so once I find the charger we can get some pictures off of my camera.

I have a doctor appointment on Wednesday, and I hope to know more information than I know now. I can't be certain, but if I had to guess, I'd say the baby dropped over the weekend (which with a first-born can happen anywhere from 4 weeks to 10 days before delivery, so it really means absolutely nothing). I suddenly can eat more food without compromising my ability to breathe! There are a couple of other things that are/have been happening that make me think he's dropped, but I don't really feel that they're "bloggable." Either way, I bet the dr. will be able to tell for sure, so I'll find out if my instincts are correct.

Gary and I have our anniversary coming up on the 31st! We will have been married for 4 years, but as many of you know, we've been a couple for much longer (12 years....no break-ups, either!). I honestly couldn't imagine the past 12 years of my life without him. On one hand it seems like we've been together my whole life, and on the other, it seems like it was just yesterday that we went on our first "date" (or whatever you call going to the movies when you're 14 years old!). I'm SOOOOO glad that I prayed I'd marry him someday when I was 6 years old (he was my first crush). I really could not have been blessed with a better husband.
