Here’s an excuse to post these photos again

because I really like them.

Shop Seedpod has moved to seedpod.etsy.com. Barry’s needed something to do during his week home to take care of me and the kids. Along with removing all the wall paper glue from the kids’ room, changing the starter in his truck, catching up on laundry, cleaning out the rabbit cage, reading countless books, and grocery shopping, he took a few minutes to figure out etsy and sent my books over there. I’ve got a few more quilt journals waiting for pages to be sewn in, so I’ll post them soon.

On another note, thanks so much for the sympathy and well wishes. It has been a rough week, but I’ve had all the time I’ve wanted to lay in bed and sleep or just veg listening to Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix (#5) on CD. Sunday’s visit to the ER let us know that the baby wasn’t alive, but I’ve had to wait for my body to do what it needed to. I’ve felt really crampy and yucky all week. Then last night I went through 2 hours of labor– intense contractions and everything. It was hard. I had Logan totally natural, and that was intense, but once it was over I had a little baby, so it was all worth it. Last night was just hard because the contractions were not any easier to work through than having a real baby, but no real baby. I’m just so glad I had Barry there. He knows how to help me relax. He got me dressed, cleaned up the mess… now that’s true love.

I feel WORLDS better today. Like almost back to normal. I showered and put on cute clothes and wasn’t ready for a nap after standing long enough to take a shower. That was nice. Tomorrow Barry will go to work. I’ll stay home and do school and take it easy. I’m so glad the worst is over. Now on to recovery.

  1. “because I really like them.”

    that’s all the excuse you need! :)

    i’m glad the worst is over and recovery has begun – bless you, my friend –

    lots of love :)

  2. I think that that’s a good a reason as any. Wish you well in your recovery. I will say a prayer for you and your family. x

  3. Hey Jessica & Barry — I was thinking about y’all the other day. Crystal and I were talking about craft projects. She’s been crocheting a lot, and has moved onto knitting and is thinking about quilting. Anyhow, I was reminded of the last time I was in Ohio and Jess said she “doesn’t do anything the easy way.” Holy cow, I guess so. This Seedpod site is really great! Handmade everything! You’re incredibly talented, Jess, (and you use such tasteful colors too!). Best wishes – curt
