I have really missed blogging. Part of me has been feeling uninspired to write. Another part of me sometimes feels like what I have to say is irrelevant. But then I remembered WHY I started blogging…for myself. So that I had these written memories of what is going on in our lives during an ever changing period. And while I blabber on about random moments in my life, I hope that a few other people out there enjoy hearing about the occasional day in the life of me.
So what's new in our life….Well…We are expecting Baby V #2!!!
I am 10 weeks today (yay hopefully only 3 more weeks of feeling like crap!). Now technically you shouldn't make the "official" public announcement until 13 weeks BUT I figure only about 9 people actually read this blog sooooo not that big of a deal!
Round 2 has been similar and yet so very different. A lot of the symptoms I had with Jack have unfortunately reared their ugly heads again but other than that I feel so different. It's taken a while for this one to sink in. I figured after our first appointment at 8 weeks and getting to see the little bean, it would hit me…nope, life continues to march on and I have to remind myself that there is a baby in there!
I remember after I found out I was pregnant with Jack, I felt like a was this delicate flower that needed to be carefully tended to (HA). I was anxiously reading the books (weeks in advance!), scouring the internet, planning a nursery, monitor all foods and products that came in contact with my body, overall stressing about every.little.thing. This time around, eh, not so much.
The novelty is gone. It's amazing, I've only done this once before but man do I feel like an old pro. I'm cautiously waiting for something unexpected to throw a curveball at me just to get me to wake up.
So here we go again! I'm REALLY going to try and not be a parent who documents every moment in the first child's life and the second only gets an honorable mention so back to blogging I go :)

(P.S. I have like 8 posts I've written the past in 3 months that I may be publishing so my timeline may be a bit out of order :))
I let out a little squeal when I saw your 10 week pic and scared the crap out of Jase! Sooooooo ridiculously cute! You look great!!!! Keep the updates coming...I have missed reading your writing :)
