Meet the new joy in our lives!


Miss Harper Sue Wurth is here! (that is her on the right) She arrived on Monday, May 1 at 4:25am. She weighed 8 lbs. 3 oz. and was 21" long! She is adorable and perfect in every way! Yes, I am her momma but I really think she's the bees-knees! We have some photos of her up on
John's flickr or you can look at her hospital photos

I am still here...waiting



Whew - It has been a while since my last post - and I don't have a ton to show for that lapse of time - unless, that is, you were to see my big ol' belly! So, I am simply waiting for the babe. I am at 38 weeks and I won't even go into how much I have gained with this pregnancy! I started off with a very slow - healthy and almost unnoticeable gain - then, all of a sudden, I exploded! But people still say, from the back, I don't look pregnant??! Maybe they should look at my grandma ankles! They really do look like my grandma's - I wish I had a photo of hers to compare to mine.

I feel I am ready! I have been having those "Braxton Hicks" contractions - the fake ones to get you ready for the real ones. I have been doing some nesting and finally finished my diaper bag (I'll put up a photo later). I found a job to keep me working from home ... I am now an official distributor for Juice PLUS+ and I am so excited about it - it's a "raw vitamin" but it's not really a vitamin because it's FOOD (17 fruits and veggies in a capsule). Roxy and I have been taking it for about 1.5 years and love it! I just recently found out that I can sell it - so I will be telling all of my dear friends about it soon. I think I will wait til after the baby is here - so be ready to put your ears on and get a quick listen. I have never been any bit of a sales person - so, as insecure as I am about the selling aspect of this, if I talk to people about it, it is because I trust them and care for them .... I need to get thicker skin for sure, so I can tell everyone about it! If any of you are good sales people - I would love some advice!
So, lots of change coming our way ... new baby, new job ... very exciting times!

I also started a new "health" blog - stemming from my excitement for my new business ... Whole Food Whole Life Blog ... so, I guess I have been doing something.
Oh, and if I don't post for several more days - expect photos of a new little gal up here soon! The ultrasound said 97% that it is a girl - but could still be a surprise bundle of boy.

Wife, mother and lunatic





I am wife to this stud and mother to one little gal with another on the way.


I am not really a lunatic ... but because of all that I would love to accomplish in a day I think I must be crazy. I set these huge goals for myself and then when I can't complete half of them I am disappointed ... know anyone else like that? Being pregnant is great - but you really can't get much done when you are constantly tired, out of breath, moody (hormonal) ... I still feel like I have such a limited time to get everything done before the baby gets here. SHEW!


So ... my "to do" list ranges from simple to impossible ... things like "do the laundry" may seem easy to you but they can be exhausting to me, and last all day. Whereas - things like draw or knit - are simple and easy to get into - but I like to finish something before I can actually cross it off a list. Since I draw and knit all the time - they never seem to get crossed off and really shouldn't be on there to begin with. And then there are the seemingly impossible ones "Simplify" and "Get a Degree in Nutrition". Those aren't two things I want to accomplish before the baby gets here - but it would be nice to at least get started before these kids are in college. So, now you can see where the lunatic reference came from... today was a wacky day.
Here is something I finished though
