I got a stamp catalog today in the mail... the new Spring/Summer collection. Guess what one of the new product lines has in it? Yes that's right... an owl. The very first one I notice is a decorative brad that has an owl on it, and the words "Hooray". Then I see stamps with owls, rub ons with owls, paper with owls, cards with owls... they're in lots of places in this catalog.
More number stuff today too- 1222, 22, 122 and 222 all showed up a lot today.
Honestly, I'm just waiting for the morning sickness to kick in so I don't have to think about taking a pregnancy test. :) I'm planning on testing on Wednesday morning; that should be plenty of time for the HCG to get to a high enough level to show up on a test.
So excited!

It's a numbers game... oh and some owls
Last night I started reading the book Vanishing Acts, by Jodi Picoult... I just finished it. It was easy reading, but one of those books you just can't put down. There were owls in the book.
I've been seeing numbers everywhere lately-- 122, and also 22. Yesterday when we were out driving around, I drove past a bus-- what number was it? 122. I looked at the clock on the radio in our kitchen when I was getting dinner ready tonight- the time's not right- what time was it reading? 1:22. The temperature when I drove the kids to school this morning? 22. The first two numbers on the tag for my grocery store frequent shopper card? 22. I know I'm missing some, those are just the ones that stick out in my mind. *** Update-- I just posted the blog, and looked at today's date-- it's 1/22. Wow. That can't be just a coincidence....
Also, as I was pulling out of the driveway of my kids' school this morning, I happened to notice the license plate of the car driving by.... +BABY- No kidding.
I'm realizing I haven't yet given the interpretation for 22 yet-
"The angels can see the positive results of your prayers, and they want you to have patience and stay optimistic while the final details are being worked out in Heaven. This is an urgent call from the angels to, "Keep the faith".
Okay, so the way I see it is that I'm pregnant. I'm definitely pregnant. I've seen the owls, seen the numbers, it's really happening. I keep getting this 22 message, becaue my baby is trying to work out with Heaven if he's going to be making this journey by himself, or if he gets to bring a brother or sister along.
I always thought that I'd have twins....

No owls, but lots of numbers...
It's been very quiet here... no owls for the last several days. It doesn't bother me though; I have faith that (as I've said before) all is well and all is as it should be.
I heard from someone I know the other day about how I should be interpreting 1222 (which, by the way, I saw again today-- as well as 222.) She said to read 122, then 2. So here's what those two numbers say in the book, Angel Numbers by Doreen Virtue-
122- Stay filled with faith, because Heaven is working behind the scenes to help your manifestations appear. The more positive your thoughts and feelings, the faster and better this manifestation appears.
2- Everything's fine and will continue to be so. Keep believing, especially since your feelings of hope lead to more positive outcomes. The angels can help buoy your faith if you'll ask them for help.
222-Trust that everything is working out exactly as it's supposed to, with Divine blessings for everyone involved. Let go and have faith.
So I'd say that faith is pretty darn important right now. There's a great quote I found a few months back, "Faith is a passionate intuition".
There's two things that stick out for me-- both in #2.
First of all, the phrase that, "my feelings of hope lead to more positive outcomes" ....Positive outcomes, like a positive pregnancy test? (heck yes!)
Then also in 2-- "The angels can buoy your faith if you'll ask them for help." So I'm wondering if that means that I should ask for another sign. I feel like that's what it's saying. I'm trying to consider what I should choose as a new sign. I guess I should ask the angels, for guidance, right? I'll think about it today, and decide on a new sign before I go to bed tonight.
Once again-
all is well, all is as it should be.
I have FAITH.
UPDATE*****
I ended up seeing 5 owls tonight- a friend who is into stamping sent me a photo album of cards and other projects, and there were 5 owls just in that one album! How's that for the universe trying to send me a message!
It's bedtime, and I'm still not 100% sold on one particular image for my sign. I've thought of a dove, an elephant, a baby, and then even a triangle/pyramid shape. I've decided to leave it to my dreams tonight and see what comes to me.
...off to dream of a sign...

Grey Owl & Conversation
I had a dream last night-- there was a large, Grey Owl sitting in a tree across the street from my house. There was a sort of a large nest that it was going inside of, then flying out again, and landing on the same branch. It mostly had its back to me when it was sitting on the branch. Somehow I knew in my dream that it was specifically a Grey Owl. I don't know that I've ever seen a Grey Owl before, but when I did a Google image search for a grey owl, the pictures that I found were exactly like what I'd seen in my dream- specifically, this one http://www.birdwatchingtours.co.uk/gallery/pix/Finland/g_grey_owl_l.jpg
Today was my nephew's 1st birthday party- I had a great time spending the afternoon with family and friends. At one point, my brother in law was talking about my other brother in law, and the funny things he does to keep my nephew and his brother entertained. One of the things he mentioned whas when he came to visit at Halloween, he was making *owl* noises.
Now keep in mind this was a big party- there were over twenty adults and at least 15 children. I find it pretty amazing that I just happened to be in the room, sitting right next to my brother in law when he casually mentioned owls.
All is well, all is as it is meant to be.
On an aside, I've been noticing that I'm seeing the number 1222 a lot- mostly on the clock, but it just seems like it's turning up a lot. When I looked up the combinations in Angel Numbers, most of them had to do with trusting my Angels and keeping faith.

Oh where, oh where have the owls gone?
Oh where oh where can they be? I haven't seen any owls in the last two days... coincidentally, when I woke up on Wednesday morning, I felt so calm, and peaceful and hopeful. That was the first thing that went through my head when I sat up- I feel hopeful. I've been amazed at the difference in how I feel- none of the doom and gloom of last week.
I also find the timing interesting, because I'm at the point in my cycle where I would have ovulated and conceived this week-- perhaps that's why no more owls... I've already ovulated and conceived, so the universe doesn't need to let me know it's happening- it's already happened. At least that's the thought I'm going with for now.
Maybe I need to ask for a new sign?
Or maybe I just need to have faith that all is well.
I think that's it- All is well, all is as it should be.

Owls Galore
On Sunday night, at the very end of the evening, I saw an owl. I wasn't expecting to see any on Sunday, since I'd seen the twin owls on Saturday. My husband was showing me a program on the computer that is for children- kind of like a computerized version of a felt board. One of the scene options was a forest with animals- and lo and behold, there was a little owl. Made me smile.
I didn't see any owls while I was awake yesterday, apparently they were saving up for when I was sleeping. Last night I was dreaming of owls... Owls on scrapbook paper, owls in trees, owls in books, there were owls everywhere in my dreams last night.
No owls yet today, but it's still early.
...Well, as it turns out, I did find my owl today, although not in a way I expected. I was thinking today about what a friend had said to me the other day about my temperament type- she said I was a "Melancholic". So I decided to poke around on the internet and see what information I could find about it. (I agree with her 100%, by the way). The second website I found said this- "Animals used to symbolize the Melancholic include the pig, cat, and owl. "
The OWL. Ding Ding Ding! There it is!
How crazy is that? Without even knowing it, I asked for the universe to send me a symbol of my temperament.
Another website I found attributed a specific bird to each of the 4 temperaments... of course the owl corresponded with melancholic-
3. Melancholic – Owl: Often very kind and considerate, melancholics can be highly creative, as in poetry and art – but also can become overly pre-occupied with details and facts. The melancholic person is a perfectionist, being very particular about what they want and how they want it in. These people are deep, thoughtful, analytical, serious and purposeful.
Very me.
I'm off to bed- let's see if I dream about owls again...

Double the Fun
Today was my afternoon for "Me Time". It was so nice to get out and not really have anything I needed to do. I went to my two favorite antique/consignment stores, and poked around. At the first stop, I was scouring the place looking for owls. I had to keep telling myself, "when I'm looking for them, I'm not going to find them". I knew I just needed to relax and trust.
On the ride over to the second store, I really relaxed and reminded myself why I was going to this store- because I love to browse, and see all the neat things there. I wasn't going JUST looking for owls. I was looking at everything- if there was an owl somewhere in that store, it would find me.
And find me it did! Along with his twin, sitting right on the shelf next to him. :)
I walked in the store, and had a brief conversation with the two women at the desk. Then I headed for the huge floor to ceiling cabinets, where I always start my browsing. The first cabinet is full of old tools, so I always skip it and start looking in the second cabinet. The VERY FIRST THING I saw when I looked up into the second cabinet was a pair of dark brown owls. I'm guessing they were bookends, about 6 or 7 inches tall.
I didn't see another owl in the whole shop! But those two were enough for me.
Seems like I'm on an "every other day" pattern.
