When I said fairly up-to-date, I was aiming for something more frequent than every six weeks so hopefully I'll pick up the pace. I will say the last six weeks have been crazy. I got a cold the last two weeks of my first trimester, and that made me a sort of tired I've never known before. I came home most nights and just got in bed. Fortunately, the start of the second trimester came with more energy (that has continued) and an improved immune system, both of which were much needed for Mal's wedding (yay!)
congrats Mr & Mrs Owens!
Ryan's been hard at work on baby's room, and it looks great! At this point we are just waiting to find out the gender so that we can add fun color and finishing touches. I know it may seem a little early, but lots of people I talked to said it could take months for some of the furniture to come in so we put the room at the top of our to do list. Everything came in within a few weeks though, and Ryan is a go-getter when he has a project so he got the room in order really quickly. The only thing we have left to find is a glider/rocker.
I've included a few close-up pictures from the baby's room, including baby's first booties and the darling, sweet picture I received from my work gal pals. I am so blessed to work with such caring, thoughtful people.
On top of all that, Ryan and I celebrated our 5th anniversary this weekend (in style...at Wolfgang Puck's Five Sixty restaurant...mmm, mmm!). It's been an amazing five years, and I continually thank God for the fabulous husband he blessed me with. I'm pretty sure the next five will be a little different from these past five, but we are looking forward to them!
We will find out the gender of the baby in the next few weeks....I promise to post with news as soon as I can!
