Today I finished a project I have literally been working on for YEARS! About 2 years ago I found this cross stitch for a new baby name and I instantly knew that I needed it. My mom had done cross stitch for each of her kids, but none were as huge of a project as this one was. I think at that time my Mom was living with us and "babysitting me" because I was passing out so much. I became very discouraged at the time and working on this project reminded me of one of the many reasons why I was going to such great lengths to fix my heart and not give up. So here is a picture of my finished project. I am quite happy with how it turned out. 

Now all I have left to do is put her name, birth date and weight when she arrives.  

My next project is to crochet a white blanket to go with her blessing outfit. 

I'm not a fan of pregnancy pictures. But I feel like I am still "cute and small" and want to document that while I can.  Here I am this morning about 21 weeks pregnant. I am so happy Gap has a maternity department. I literally own most of the Spring line. I don't think I will ever put my stretchy waist jeans in storage, they are SO comfortable. So if you hate maternity clothes you are not shopping at the right store. I love GAP and desperately miss my discount.
