Anael

My DS just called. They are on their way to hospital, my DDIL is losing amniotic fluid. She's 25 weeks pregnant. We all hoped things would have turned to normal. Now all I can do is sit and wait for a phonecall. You're all waiting with me? I'm scared and worried.

OMG, Anael, your family is in my prayers tonight!

Anael

My DS just called again. They're still doing tests, the twins are ok for now but my DDIL has to be transported to another hospital. The local hospital can't deal with premies this small.

Anael--praying for your son and daughter-in-law, the new little ones and you too.

Anael

Still waiting for news. They're in the other hospital and they're doing tests, I guess, I hope.

Oh dear ... what a start to the day for us all .......
Reaching out to {{{{{HUG}}}}} you, Anael.
And yes, waiting here, side by side with you and all the others.

My DS just called. The twins are ok for now, my DDIL has to stay in hospital. They think the problems are caused by the deceased little one but they're doing more tests this afternoon.
Thank you surrogate grandmas for waiting with me, for all the hugs and prayers. We're not there yet but I sincerely hope there won't be anymore problems!

Anael--I hope you are getting some sleep...or at least trying to rest while waiting for the next call...

Here are a few pictures I took of my "new clubhouse" today..not sure if I will keep calling it "the clubhouse" or if I will come up with a new name...any ideas??

Pic 1 is the end that will go towards the road
Pic 2 is the sliding glass door...will face the house/yard
Pic 3 is just inside the sliding glass door...all built-ins will be coming out
Pic 4 is to the right of sliding glass door and steps upstairs; partial wall...this wall will be coming out
Pic 5 is standing upstairs..we are going to put a trap door over the hole for the steps so that we don't have to heat/cool the upstairs...for now

Ceiling downstairs is about 7ft, upstairs in the middle about 6ft...good thing I am short. There is currently no insulation so we'll have to pull off the sheeting...might be able to reuse if it comes off clean. My DD thinks I need to keep the "splatter" paint job and a girlfriend thinks I need to paint it pink! I am thinking something warm...haven't thought too much about it since it will be a while before I get to that point! I am thankful for a DS who is a hard worker and is looking forward to the job of refinishing the building with me so. DH will help when needed too.
