OK - so here's why I've been absent...
I am pregnant!!!
And today I got to see the little person growing inside me. A very exciting day!
(I didn't believe it was really true until I saw the little thing wriggle and jump on the screen!)
Thank you all so much for all your kindness and well wishes - I am hoping to feel normal again soon, and one day I hope to be able to re-enter my studio. I've not been able to craft for 6 weeks... my sense of smell has gone crazy, and the new carpet in there is NOT good.
So that explains it.
Thanks for caring.
You all rock!!!
And I PROMISE I'll be back soon with winners of my giveaways and new cards...

Awwww! Big congrats, Lucy and Andy, I'm so very happy for you!! What a blessing! I foresee many baby cards in this blog in the next months ;)
Lucy, hope you feel better soon. I'm sure you've already been given lots of advice, but here's my two cents: ginger scent helps a lot with sickness. It worked for me when I was pregnant (I bought a couple of very fresh ginger scents, one from Origins and one from Kenzo-Kenzoki).
Big hugs!
Congratulations Lucy!!! Take care :)
Huge congrats to you! What a wonderful blessing!!! Hope you start feeling better soon!
congratulations!
hope your smell will be back soon

CONGRATS! Hope the pregnancy is going well for you. It's a crazy time I guess, so put up your feet and look after yourself and bump.
Oh huge congrats to you both! That's wonderful news and I hope you can be at one with your studio carpet again soon. ;o)
Congratulations!!
Big, huge congrats!!! So happy for you! Everyone was worried that you were seriously ill but that illness is a good one! :) Take care and don't worry, it will all be OK soon! And a bit later you'll have the strength of 6 for crafting, lol!
Woo hoo! I'm so excited for you! I was really worrying about what illness you had that was keeping you away from your craft room for this long. How exciting! Can't wait! Good luck, and again, Congrats to you and DH!!!
Congratulations!!
CONGRATULATIONS!!! You have an excellent excuse for not being in your studio to craft. Best wishes with your pregnancy.
ohhh WOW! Congratulations :D
Congrats Lucy! So exciting. I know how you feel. I could not get crafty either for a long time. Hope you feel up to it real soon though :)
I had a feeling....Congrats Girl!
Eeee! How exciting! Thanks so much for sharing your joyful news with us Lucy - big congrats to you and yours ;)
I figure this is *definitely* a forgiveable excuse for not doing too miuch crafting lately - we certainly can let you off!!
Hugs, Ruth S
Lucy... Congratulations!!!! That is awesome!!!! Big hugs to you!!!
Congratulations to you!! Now I don't know if it's true or not, I've never really sat down and did research on it, but a lot of friends and folks who have had girls, said they got really sick at the beginning of their pregnancy. Boys, less often? Anyways, I had no sickness with Chris, so maybe...you may have a little girly princess. So excited for you!
WOW!!! congrats!!
Wow, what a fantastic news! Hope you feel better soon. Enjoy your pregnancy.
So very happy for you and your family Lucy! Enjoy every moment and take care of you two! Will keep a good thought for you often!
Congratulations. A new little life. So happy for you Lucy. Lorelle in Bundy XXX

Oh Lucy! Such absolutely wonderful news! So thrilled for you and your hubby!
Congratulations Lucy! I hope you're feeling better soon!!
CONGRATS!!!!! I just knew that's why you were sick! I had the same issues w/ smell so I feel your pain. It will pass I promise. Take care. :)
Congrats!!! Such wonderful news!! I understand about smells, I had the same issues. A little hint with the smell of the new carpet is to put some bi-carb soda on the carpet (hubbys job) leave it overnight and vacuum the next day, it will help with the smell, leave a opened box of the bi carb in the room as well. Sounds strange but lighting a few matches will help as well.
Congratulations again!!!!!
Congratulations, Lucy! I'm so happy for you.
Oh joy! I am so happy for you! Take care of yourself and that tiny life inside of you. Don't worry about us. We will stick with you and be there when you are ready to craft again. Congratulations and God bless!!!
Congrats! I miss your posts. You sound just like my daughter, she is just now starting to feel better. It will pass.
Fantastic news, Lucy, on my Birthday too :o)
Hope you are soon feeling better, once you get this first trimester over. UNtil then CONGRATULATIONS to you both, look forward to see your creations and blogs again soon. xx

So happy for you and your husband. Sorry that you are not feeling well but it is worth it when in the end you have your beautiful baby in your arms...
CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!!
What a happy time for you and your husband! Congratulations!! Take care and enjoy this experience. It does get better and is so worth it when you finally have that little one in your arms.
Hey Congratulations Lucy!! Take care and crakers will help!!
congratulations lucy - thats the best reason to be sicky. ive just had my first bambino two months ago, and i definitely remember the first weeks of pregnancy - its a struggle to eat, smells make you queasy, and car rides are a nightmare. have you had any cravings yet? i remember one week all i wanted was cocacola, then the next week i couldnt even look at it.
congrats again to you guys, and maybe we'll be lucky enough to see a photo of the scan.
take care, and remember...its all worth it!
Wow, Wow and Wow again!! Congratulations Lucy! I feel badly about you feeling ill -- but I am so happy for you that the "illness" is something so joy-filled. Congratulations a hundred times over!
Hope you are feeling better soon and able to enjoy the rest of your pregnancy. God Bless!
Congrats, Lucy!!! With both of my kids...I couldn't be around the smell of most food for many, many months!! I couldn't eat in a resturant at all! Hopefully it will get better and you can get back to some crafting time :0)
Huge Congratulations Lucy! At least that's a good kind of sick!
Arabella
What a wonderful excuse! So very happy for you. Sure that your body will settle into its new role very soon and you will be able to return to the crafting. Hugs!
WOOHOOOOHOOOOOO!!! Congratulations!!!
HOW COOL IS THAT?????? Congrats, Lucy! Hope your body allows you to get back to your studio real soon! We miss your inspiration!
CONGRATULATIONS!!! I remember those days. I don't know why they call it moring sickness, I was sick all day during my first trimester. Your sense of smell will get a little better, but it probably won't be normal again until you give birth. The first trimester is the worst. CONGRATULATIONS again... Hang in there.
Big congrats to you!!!! Sending prayers for you and baby!!!!
What a pleasant reason to be sick.... congratuliations with your pregnacy!!!!!! Great news. Hope you feel better soon.
gr. Jacqueline
Congratulations, hope all goes well. Lavender used to make me as sick as a dog! Still can't have it in the house!
Congratulations!! I was the same way with my 1st baby. I couldn't step foot near a public restroom lol and I often had to get off public transportation before my stop!! By week 20 my sense of smell was back to normal :)
Congratulations!! I'm so happy for you and your husband. You will feel better soon. Keep your smile on.
Yay! Yipee! Congtats! Virtual hugs to you! I'm so happy to hear you're ok! Take your time and enjoy every minute! Crafting will be there whenever you're ready! And us too!
Congratulations !
Congratulations! That is awesome news. Looking forward to seeing you back to crafting when you are feeling better.
Big congratulations Sista! Glad to hear you have. Had your first glimpse of your little bean!
YAYAY! Lucy I am sooo happy for you and your hubby! BIG, BIG, BIG congrats! Take care of yourself and that little miracle. :) HUGS, HUGS, and MORE HUGS!
Bless your heart, you will get tons of advice. Tea 0r 7-up and crackers. When I was pregnant eons ago (LOL) when I couldn't eat, the only thing I could drink that would stay down was chocolate milk. Good Luck, you'll figure out what will settle your stomach. And in no time, you'll have a big appetite and your doctor will say, my dear you are not eating for 2. But it's all good. Congratulations.
Congrats !!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm happy for you :-)
Yay, congrats! :D
So happy for you ..CONGRATULATIONS!
Was worried it was something bad..having a baby is so special... the beeing sick is not great(understatement!!)..really terrible..but feeling your baby move made it all worth for me.
Congratulations, Lucy. I know you will be feeling better soon. And I bet that little one will have the cutest nursery ever!
Yay!! Isn't it funny to see them move around when you can't actually feel it yet? Feel better soon and best wishes for a lovely pregnancy and birth!
Wonderful news! Wishing you well!!
Congratulations to you! What wonderful news! (Hang in there!)

Oh Lucy that is so WONDERFUL!!! I have been there with that morning sickness. You poor thing. I did figure out on my 2nd baby that it was the pre-natal vitamins making me so sick.
