It's been a while since an update, so here's what's been happenin.

Joel and I are expecting in January, which is part of the reason for my absence. The first trimester had me down and feeling, quite frankly, out of commission. Which is rather difficult with a toddler. What little energy I did have, was spent taking care of Cora. Yes, there was laundry and toys laying around and cooking sometimes consisted of frozen pizzas and spaghetti (more often than I'd like to admit).

But hey! I'm feeling 10x better now that I'm 15 weeks and in my second trimester. Housework is finally caught up and cooking has consisted of less pizzas and more of the good stuff! Well, I'd like to think so anyways. And since I've been able to feel those first little flutters in my belly (which has began popping out), I've really started to get excited and enjoy this pregnancy. Although, daily nap time is still happenin.

As for Cora, since she's been stuck in the house with me, she did some dance lessons. She can take some "practice classes" in the summer and hopefully get her signed up for a semester in the fall. She really enjoys it, even though her attention span still jumps all over the place. AND it wears her out. Win Win.

And now we're preparing for the busy busy next five weeks. There's six birthdays (all under 3 y/o), baby showers, adult birthdays, and babies being born! Craziest time of year, next to Christmas. So we're making up for all that time spent at home. :)
