I dropped off the blogosphere. (In case you hadn’t noticed.)
But, I’m back. I got a little overwhelmed by the pregnancy. Well. I take that back. I never got overwhelmed because I stopped blogging. Had I pushed myself to stay up working on projects, taking photos, writing and whatnot, I would have been overwhelmed. And that’s no good.
My body screamed “it’s 8:30, go to bed!” for nearly three months, but I’ve caught that second trimester second wind. I’m ready to start plugging away on projects!
So, fast recap: Christmas was fun – got a lot of baby gear, which kind of forced us to start nesting. We went to Connecticut to visit family (luckily, leaving before that storm smashed air travel for a week!). I felt the first kicks (it’s kicking as I type!). And, as this post goes live at 10:00 a.m. on Monday, January 13, I’m on my way to my first ultrasound at UNC Health Care. Eek! Yes, we’re going to find out the sex. Yes, I’ll tell you! (After family, of course.) And yes, I need to start posting regular bump growth pictures (spoiler alert: I can’t button my pants any more).
What’s coming up in January: Real work on the guest room (about time!), new light fixtures, a teeny bit of nesting and a new hobby.
So glad you’re back! I hope you’re feeling better. I always check back to see if there are updates. So happy for you and excited to follow your story!
