1. The last post followed a miscarriage of my third pregnancy (I have one child) and was extremely upsetting for me. I accepted it and got pregnant two weeks (yes, that's right - two weeks) later but it was still a huge setback physically, emotionally, mentally. I was so excited for that baby and had invested two careful months into the pregnancy, hoping I could prevent another loss like the one before Hannah and the miscarriage came as a complete shock. No warnings. Just a sinister surprise that caught me one night as I was heading to bed. I learned a lot from it and am okay now. I am so happy to be preparing for another baby. I am content to be pregnant again. I am grateful to be adding a son (yes, a son!) to our family and to learn how to juggle two kids instead of just one. It will be exciting.
in the spring, fill the view with gorgeous green and cool shade in the summer and this fall will shed vibrant, beautiful autumn leaves. I always hoped for a neighborhood filled with trees. I am so lucky.
3. Paul has a new job and has been working insane hours since we moved in. This has left me alone with Hannah a lot and often feeling like I'm doing this all myself. With a new house to settle into and a lot of exhaustion from the pregnancy, everything seems to be going very slowly but we are getting there little at a time. Paul is super helpful when he is home, hanging things, fixing things, organizing the garage, and so forth, but we also have to fit in family time, doctor visits, date nights (a rarity I am sad to admit) and every other crazy thing that comes up that it often takes up the time we set aside to work on moving. So, very little is hung on our walls, but we do have curtains and blinds thanks to my hubby and we are, like I said, getting there. Give us a few more months, hopefully before the baby comes...
Meanwhile, Hannah is my little helper and together, we'll get it all done.
