This Past Week...
Has been totally insane for me! I am sorry I haven't been around, here is a rundown:
Thursday was my great grandmothers 100th Birthday Celebration. She was born on St. Patricks day in 1911, so we had a big party for her up near Lake George, NY. The news was all over the story and here is the great clip they did about her:

Also on Thursday morning, DH's sister was induced 3 weeks early due to high blood pressure, and so on Friday Morning we welcomed Anja Marie into the world. She was 4 pounds and 7 ounces, and was 17 inches long. She is still in the NICU but is doing fantastic, they said she is developed, just tiny. Here is the only picture I have so far:
The rest of my week was spent working about 12 hours a day before the party....its been an ugly place around here lately. Some people in my company messed up a project for a client and now everyone is super on edge and playing a big round of the blame game. None if it had anything to do with me, but one of my supervisors said that I should start to put out my feelers for another job just in case....no pressure right?
This week will be more of the same. I am working on some projects for the baby which will keep me entertained while I am at home so I don't have to think about work!
Hopefully I will get to be around here more this week...I have missed you ladies!
Re: This Past Week...
I don't which is more adorable - the little petit bebe, or your Grandmom!!! I loved how your Grandmom said she said her prayers "every day, three times a day...morning, noon and night." How true, and how very precious :-))
And this little one is beyond cute!!! What a wonderful weekend you had - these are both such wonderful events!
They are both so cute! Congrats on the new baby and on having such a milestone birthday in your family!
Sorry about the work situation not being so great...hopefully it will blow over and things will go back to normal...its never a good feeling though!

Like I said on FB, your grandma is SO cute! Congrats on a new niece!! Just said a prayer for a fast and speedy recovery for her so they can take her home!!!! (And you can post more pictures!)
Hope things are slowing down a bit!
Your great grandma is just adorable and spunky for someone 100 years old!!
Your niece is beautiful! Hopefully they are able to take her home soon!
That sucks about your job. Sounds like your co-worker's slacking is finally catching up with them! I'll keep my fingers crossed that you keep your job!

Thanks everyone for your very sweet comments.
Anja is doing well, she has dropped to 4 pounds over the past few days, but apparently that can happen when a baby is in the hospital? Hopefully she will be on the upswing soon.
I will keep everyone posted as soon as I get more pictures!
