I am THRILLED to finally get to share what I have been so excited about!
My youngest daughter and her husband are expecting!!!!
QUADRUPLETS!!!!
She has always been an over achiever - she started college at 15 and was editor in chief of a luxury magazine at 22 and has done more in her short 26 years of life than I ever thought about doing!
Of COURSE she would do pregnancy in a BIG way!!
You can read all about it on her blog: Texas Tales/Blessed With FOUR!!!
NOW you know what my exciting plans for 2012 are!!
Sewing preemie layettes.......
....and baby clothes.....
...and MORE baby clothes!!
As I recall, a baby goes through about four little outfits or gowns a day
Times that by FOUR and it is SIXTEEN little gowns or shirts per day!
I know you can't tell - but I am SO excited!!
The camper will be our home away from home this summer!
Since Louis Dean lived in it for four years after his wife died.......
we have a lot to clean out, repair and spruce up!
With multiple births you do not have the whole 40 weeks to prepare.
We need to get it ready to roll by late spring for sure!
SO! THIS is what I have been wanting to tell everyone!!
I think there is a wonderful ring to
'The Bell Quad Squad!'
Don't you???
oOOHHHHHHHH I am so excited for you! You will have SOOOO much fun sewing and helping...you are so blessed along with your daughter and husband!! Wish I was closer to help 'hold' those babies when they come!!!
ReplyDeleteLinda that is fabulous news! What a blessing!
ReplyDeleteWow, incredible news. You will all be so very busy, so lucky you have a trailer/truck so you can be there with your daughter, husband and already beloved babies when they are ready to be born, good planning. Big life change for everyone.

I'm so glad you finally got to tell! You are going to be busy - and I had a feeling the camper hint a couple of days ago had something to do with dem babies! :)
ReplyDeleteOh Linda, what news! I am so excited to follow you as you get ready for those new babies. Congratulations to everyone!
ReplyDeleteWow. That is the most exciting news I've heard in a long time. Yes, the time for preparation has come! Hearty congrats to your daughter and her husband.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful surprise!!! Indeed your sewing skills will be greatly needed and how fun to do it!

ReplyDeleteWhat news!!!!!!
No wonder you were bursting, to tell it. :-)
Congratulation to the happy Parents To Be.
(Mmmmm, will they have live-in help, I hope?)
And hooray for getting your camper all spruced up. To use in the Spring. I've never even owned a camper, so have no idea of them. Other than seeing them, when visiting. :-)
