A long road...

I know that it has been months (!) since I have last posted...  and many are wondering if I fell off the face of the Earth (?), so here is the scoop.  In December along with the news that we would be having a little baby girl we were also told that I had Placenta Previa.  (fyi - when the placenta attaches over the birth canal)  Although I knew that the potential for complications was there, the doctors were so up beat that I really just put it out of my mind...  Well.. the placenta refused to move and at the end of February it got a little more complicated and I was forced to be on bed rest in the hospital... and that it where I stayed until April 17th, 2008 when we welcomed Margot Marion Olesen into this world by scheduled Cesarean. 
   
She came about 3.5 weeks early and she is tiny, but she is healthy and needed no extra help after birth and came home with me a few days later.  Maryanne is so excited to be a BIG SISTER, and Michael and I are just glad to be a family again...  Thank you to everyone who was there to support not just me but Michael and Maryanne too...  So it's a little crazy here, but I hope to be creating again soon.
