Hello to all of my Teddy Bear making friends and collectors who peek in from time to time, I thought this would be a good time to share a bit of news with all of you!  We have a 'new addition' to the family! Well, technically he or she is still in the making    but we can all expect him or her to make their big 'debut' late next June or some time abouts.  Yes, we're (specifically I am) expecting.

Will this one be a future Teddy Bear maker??? lol

YAY! Congratulations, Kimberly, to you and your family! Best wishes that you'll have an easy pregnancy and of course a beautiful, healthy baby!

BearBottoms Dec 11, 2006

Oh, thank you all so much!!  This will be our 3rd baby; we already have 2 girls.  Of course it would be a pleasant surprise to have a boy this time around, but we will be pleased no matter what! 

I honestly just keep thinking back on us growing up (I'm the youngest of 3 girls) and am scared to have 3 daughters in the house!!!!! lol  We weren't 'the easiest' to raise!

As for the pregnancy so far, Sandi, I've been plagued with some pretty bad nausea and headaches and TIIIIRED this time around; far worse than either of my girls' pregnancies... Thus no bears listed on eBay lately...  I've just been zapped, and with a 5 year old and a 3 year old still keeping me running..... lol

I'm sorry to hear you're not feeling the best, but most of those symptoms usually fade after 3 months. I never felt any nausea, but I had heartburn on a daily basis and was very tired for the first trimester. At 5 months now, I feel GREAT! Well, besides getting fat!

Cleathero Creations Dec 11, 2006

Oh congratulations. You will have a great time with 3 (I have 4) sometimes you wonder how you will cope as you only have 2 hands but it will be fine.

Lots of babies happening isn't it great.

BearBottoms Dec 11, 2006

I didn't know you were pregnant too!!!  YAY!  Congratulations to you as well!  Oh, yes, the heartburn... I forgot that one.  I've got that on a daily basis as well... YUCK.  I know it will pass soon, but it doesn't make for a fun 2-3 months... lol

And Bronwen, you jumped in here right when I was replying...  Thanks for the comforting words.... I sometimes wonder NOW how I'll make it and I only have 2!  This is usually right about the time one has dumped their cereal all over the floor, the dog's drinking the milk, and the other is in the bathroom unrolling the entire roll of toilet paper...... lol

ah yes quite familiar with that.
Save the toilet roll first as the dog is taking care of the main mess. 

Normally you'll find though that the older ones will happily dob on what the youngest is doing  :crackup: so you'll know exactly what is going on.

Congratulation Kimberley!  :hug: So happy for you.

:dance:  :hug:  YEA KIM!!!!         :hug:

So.... your newest "one of a kind" is sort of in the design stages at this point!    :crackup:   Sorry, bad joke!  You know I am head over heels happy for you!   :hug:

I know it's just an old wives tale, but it always held true with me.... the worse you feel... the more likely the new arrival is to be of the male persuasion!   :doh:

Ah, you ladies all have such promising comments on this 'early pregnancy symptoms' problem I seem to be having.  As I'm right at about 12 weeks now, I keep waking up every day hoping it will be the one that most of the symptoms have finally subsided! lol   :pray:

Bronwen, you are too right.... My elsest already does that.  Only problem is, most of the time all I hear all day is, "Moooooom, Brynn did this......" or, "Mooooooooom, Brynn's got that......" or, "Moooooooooom, Brynn's taking my.... (insert any toy here)....." or, "Moooooooom, Brynn's going to throw a shoe at me...." sigh.

Kim,
lol, yep... But I can tell you all right now that once I'm finished with this OOAK, it'll be the very last and also only one like it..... Also, I don't think I'll be listing this one on eBay, it has too much time and effort in it for me to possibly put up for sale.  :crackup: Speaking of feeling horrible=male persuasion, you are yet another of SEVERAL I've heard this from already... (kinda keeping my fingers crossed) Hmmm, this would be an interesting 'poll'.

Toby, did you end up having a girl or boy?

Marie_ Dec 12, 2006

Congratulation Kimberly !!!  :hug:  :hug:
I hope your pregnancy symptoms will be ease soon.

Daphne Dec 12, 2006

Kimberly,
I too am thinking it's a boy. Poor kid..... all that girly stuff to contend with and put with! :crackup:
Great news!!! :dance:
Hang in there!!
Hugs! :hug:
