Weeks 20 and 21

It's been two weeks since I had surgery to remove a vaginal cyst.  Thank you to everyone who prayed for or thought of me and the baby!  What's most important is that Plurk (a.k.a.

About Me: No I'm not a mystic


I answer to many names Misty Lou, Misty Jean, Mystical and even Extrafancy are just a few of the nicknames to which I answer. The most important names though are Wife, StepMom and, soon to be, Mom. With all these names it's sometimes hard to know who I am! This blog started as a Nebraska girl learning, trying, succeeding and failing at gardening in Colorado. Along the way in growing my garden, I grew my family too as I married a wonderful man and became stepmom to two precious boys. Now our family grows more as I'm pregnant. So here is all of me as I share my family, home and garden. BTW my middle name is Jennifer; my name is Misty Jennifer Montano.
