Anyone Heard from Concretegurl?
 

I think the last posting she made was the 8th so I am thinking she must have had her baby. Anyone heard from her? Just want to know that everything went well and she is joyously caring for a new baby boy! So exciting!

Since my baby-making days are long behind me, I have to live vicariously through the younger folks! I'm making her a baby afghan -- slow work with one hand not cooperating but it is almost done. I think she may have beat me though :) So how about it -- anyone know if she has had the baby yet?

I haven't heard....sending good thoughts her way though.

And Debra....how sweet of you to make her an afghan!!! Wow! I can't wait to see pics! I absolutely love homemade blankets...quilted, sewn, crocheted, all of it!

I thought I remembered seeing a mention in a post that she was expecting. Maybe she has already had the baby if she has been away since the 8th. How exciting for her and her husband! I'm like FlDebra and my only way to enjoy babies these day are through others and can't help but get excited when I hear a new baby is here or about to be!!!

Not yet! All excited for nothing recently, unfortunately still waiting on baby.

Been dealing with some stuff and lots of getting ready, contractions are steadily on and off at only up to 30 minutes apart, so back to the Dr. in the morning, will post pics soon and updates.

Thank you all for the well wishes!

Thanks for posting and sounds like the time is near. :)

I hope everything goes well and that your baby is healthy and that the delivery is as painfree as possible.. I know the baby will be very loved. I will be thinking of and praying for you, Shannon.

Sending well wishes for you and your baby Concretegurl:). What a happy time. We are expecting our first grandchild (it's a girl) in two weeks (more or less, lol). Exciting times for sure. Can't wait to see your pics.

Awwwww a beautiful new baby on the way! Can't wait to see pics! I wish you an easy delivery and a quick recovery! :)

Hope he comes soon. I know how those last few days seem to drag by and you feel so ready to have him in your arms! Praying for an easy delivery, and most of all a healthy baby! :)

I only have a few more rounds to go on the afghan. I am using a new pattern, a little different than ones I've made before. Hope you like it! I used primary colors in the round -- very bright. When your little one outgrows it, you can make it a pup blanket! All my pups love afghans!

Debra....you are making me so jealous!!! Can I pretend to be having a baby so you will make me one?? :D Hint hint.....ummmm, it's a boy too....love the colors baby blue and brown! ;)

I'm kidding (about faking a pregnancy :eek: ) just think a home made blanket is the most awesome gift!

Hope all is well in the baby department.

Wishing concretegurl ALL the best, and sending HUGS to you.

I can't wait to see your new baby!:p

I love babies :) Can't wait to see the new addition to the YT family!

This is getting exciting and am so happy for you. I pray you have the easiest time delivering ever and that boy comes into this world happy and healthy. Hugs to you and the wholethat family, furries included.

He's here!
 

Marek Benjamin 4-22 10:09 a.m. 8lbs 1 oz!

Red hair, lots of blond and brown tones through out 10 digits top and bottom and eyes are still dark blue thus far...

After about 3 weeks of on/off nonproductive contractions, attempts at mild induction (stripping membranes, teas, massage etc) we scheduled a medical induction for Friday morning at 7 a.m. during the 'overdue' non-stress testing in the hospital.

Well Thursday night was rough, restless, then exciting...we showed up to the maturity ward at 6:40 a.m. Friday in labor ready to go no induction needed, a couple hours later we had a new baby!

Haven't had time for much fun or leisure lately but I hope to post again soon!

Oh! The dogs are adjusting nicely, a little curious smelling at him, no marking any baby stuff...well yet so lets hope, and they all seem very calm with him, almost aware he's a baby; a bit defensive of what's going on when he cries though, Elvis will prance and circle and 'grunt whine' at me. Scoobers is pretty familiar with babies, he just likes to sit by watch, a of course loves people coming over-they are really here to see him. Princess Monster is surprising turning out to be very mellow and well behaved with her curiosity!

Baby doesn't mind (no jumping or crying at all) their barking at all; guess he heard it before and it's a familiar sound actually, he'll sleep through them altering to someone at the door! Sister is a lil mom again so helpful, and brother is adjusting to not being the baby in the family anymore.

Congratulations on a safe delivery and a beautiful baby boy!
Welcome to the world Marek :)

CONGRATULATIONS! What a beautiful baby boy! I love his red hair! Looks like you will have a couple of helpers there! Glad everyone is adjusting well and Marek is getting a warm welcome by all. Take care of yourself -- rest when you can!

I will mail out your afghan this week! :D Hope you like it.

Congratulations and what beautiful pictures of your baby boy. Looks like you are teaching him to be a dog lover already. :)

Congratulations, what a cutie!!

Congratulations!! What a beautiful boy!! :D

I am so very happy for you and your family!!!

I was just thinking about you yesterday wondering if he had made his appearance yet. Congratulations~he is beautiful :)

What a beautiful child that young man is - and so big! Girl! That must have been tough going.

I love his red hair and his baby-boy face! He's already got distinctive features for one so new. Take lots of pictures and keep showing him off, please. Congratulations on your little miracle and a belated Happy Birthday to Marek Banjamin!
