Hello to all! Well as you all have pry heard by now we are having another baby in our family! We are very excited and can't wait till September to meet this little one. So I have been quite sick like normal. I guess I should know by now that I won't be like my mom or sister and not get sick. There might not be to much to write about because I have been spending my time in my bed or the couch and only getting out when I have to. The 2nd I stayed home for church with Nigel because he wasn't feeling well. The 3rd Kelly took Nigel with him to town and Heidi and I ran to Beaverlodge for dinner. I did get some buns made also. The 4th I cleaned the house. The 7th we had a town day. The 9th was a very scary evening for us. Heidi wasn't wanting to eat her supper and she was complaining that her head hurt. So I gave her some medicine and we told her to go lay on the couch for a bit. She was asleep within minutes and  I knew something wasn't right because that is not like her. We where getting around for church and she woke up crying saying her head hurt and her eyes hurt because the light was so bright. If any of you have ever then to our house you know that we don't have many lights in our living room. So we shut the lights of and she was still crying about her head and the lights. By this time the medicine had been in her an hour and didn't seem to be helping. I called the nurse hotline and they told us to get to an ER right away because it could be pretty serious. By this time she was barfing. So we rushed her in and while we where waiting to be seen she barfed a couple more times. They told us it was mostly likely a migraine. They said it doesn't happen real often in small children but it can if they are getting sick. So glad to know it wasn't anything life threatening. The 10th Kelly had a course in GP. In the evening we went to folks for supper to be with Isaac before he left for Haiti. He finally got to much awaited call for his papers but he has to be in Haiti to get them. The 11th Kelly was at his course. The 12th Kelly again at his course. We had potluck at church for dinner and we are food committee so I needed to be there. The technology committee came and gave us to talks. They where very interesting. The 13th Kelly headed to Edmonton to get some wood he had ordered. He was home by night time. The 18th Kelly took all of us to GP for supper. The 21st Heidi had a teeth cleaning and I wanted them to look at my filling I done a long time ago that was still bothering me. Turns out that I need a root canal and those things are not cheap. Thankfully I had just gotten Alberta Health Benefits which might cover it but I won't know for a few more weeks. I had my first DR appointment in the afternoon. The 22nd I went and did my blood work and Kelly had some to do to. The 24th was my first ultrasound. We got to see one very happy baby with  a heartbeat in the 150s. I came home and started sewing some dresses. The 25th I sewed. The 26th we went to Lorne Toews' for dinner had church in the evening. Well that is all the news for this month.  Isaac did get his papers and now can work in Canada. I think he has Permanent Residence like I do. If so he has to live in Canada 3 out 5 years. He plans to come back here the first part of March. Not much new to tell about the kids. They are very excited about the new baby and wonder why mommy's tummy is always sick. Till next time......
