OFF THE WAGON

Okay, so I know that my last post was all about my New Year's Resolution to post more frequently, but I fell off the wagon right away.  We have had so much going on in our lives (and still have so much going on) that I haven't really had the time or energy to sit down and write.  Most of you already know, but I am pregnant!!  Yay!  We are super excited and were really hoping to have our children about 2 years apart.  Well, I'd say that 25 months is pretty close to 2 years!  I'm 12.5 weeks along, due August 28.  So, you could say over the last couple of months I have really struggled to keep up with my always moving toddler and that blogging was the last thing on my mind!  I was feeling pretty bad and have been absolutely exhausted, but feel like my old self is starting to come back some now.  I don't get nearly as nauseous as I was and I'm not quite as tired, but still really appreciate nap time and sometimes go to bed around 8:30 or 9pm.  Being pregnant with your second is a completely different ball game.  When I was pregnant with Alexander all I had to do was get through a day at work (super easy when you sit at a desk all day!) and then come home and lie on the sofa, and then go to bed.  Now, my current boss doesn't quite understand why I want to just lie down for a few minutes.  But, I feel like it is all getting better.  Once I have my energy back, things will be great. 

We're also dealing with an impending move.  Of course we're not sure exactly when or where we are going, but we know that it's soon.  So our house is on the market, which is just stressful on it's own.  But now I have to make sure it's spotless at all times in case someone wants to see it at a moment's notice.  We've had quite a few showings so far, and some interest, but no bites yet.  We're having an open house on Sunday, so hopefully that will generate some more interest. 

The weather has been wonderful so we've been taking advantage and really playing outdoors this week.  Alexander LOVES playing outside so this has been great!  We had his 18 month well baby check (yes, he just turned 19 months) this morning and he's looking good!  He weighs 25lbs (44%) and is 34" long (69%).  The doc said this was still good, he's following his own curve.

Well, that's all for now.  I'll try to post soon and get some recent pics up.
