MY EXCUSES...

for not blogging much at all since January.

#1: We are building a house...it has been fun watching it built from the ground up and getting to choose the details to make it our own. For example, we got the garage two feet deeper so that our boat would fit in straight (as of now, ours it caddy cornered in our garage and we cannot park any cars in it). The new house is not taking up too much of my time, but trying to sell our house is...We have to keep the house spotless everyday "just in case" we get a showing. That is not to easy when you live w/ a 2 year old.#2. I went to Africa..as I've already blogged about. But, it took some time to prepare for it and then recover from it.
#3. And for my biggest and best excuse...I'm 13 weeks pregnant!...and who wants to blog when you're extremely exhausted and nauseous! Little did I know that when i went to Africa i was pregnant...So when I went for my 8 week ultrasound and it had arms and legs, we were very surprised...I was actually 10 weeks and I can not describe how excited I was that I was two weeks more thru my first trimester than I had thought.
I am still tired but it is getting better. Last time that got better around 15 weeks, so I'm holding on until then. I've been less nauseous than with Kaleb. I am so happy that I'm not working full time (except full time as the mom of Kaleb)...I've been able to rest more in the middle of the day and have more time to cook still, so I've been eating healthier. I'm trying hard this time not to gain 50#s. So, if anyone has any special intuitions if its a boy or girl...I have no idea...some days I think girl, other days, a boy...only time will tell.

So, I hope I will be able to keep up my blog as I grow, b/c I love having this journal of the kids lives to one day show them.

Congratulations! What a great news. Let us know if it's a boy or a girl. Noela is loving being a big sister for now (Everest deosn't play with her toys just yet). Congrats on the new house too. When do you guys move in? Lots to celebrate. We are doing well. Busy, busy with yard work; we are trying to put in a fence as well as grass this summer. Leida
