A fail and a few (BIG) updates...

Its no surprise that I have completely FAILED at keeping up with blogging, hence the date stamps on this post and my last.  EEK! I thought about blogging quite frequently, and the nice casual reminders from my friends about my lack of blogging hasn't quite provided the motivation I needed.  However, can I throw out a few excuses to make me feel better about the lack of dedication --- sure I can!  To top that, I will disguise my excuses in the form of updates to really showcase my sense of denial:


Updates since April:

--We put our house on the market in late August--it sold in record time (woohoo) and we began the crazy-mad hunt to find our next home.  (Insert Drama Begins here) We sold our home the end of October and had a few contracts on other homes fall through so needless to say we are shacking up with my parents for a few weeks. 

--The good news is that as of last night we have a ratified contract on a home that we love and we just need to keep our fingers crossed that no unforeseen issues come up and this home falls through like the others!  Fingers crossed that we will be in our new home before Christmas!

-- I am 15 weeks pregnant today!  Whoa, yes, there ya go, this is where you can lift your jaw off the floor to continue reading.  I feel like there is so much I could write about this update but here are just some quick thoughts: yes, we were trying; no, we didn't think it would happen as fast as it did; I will be 20 weeks right before Christmas and we can find out the sex if we want; we are still unsure about whether or not we want to know the sex; our families (and friends) are super excited and so are we!

-- I will be starting weekly pregnancy update posts as soon as I start to "show."  I mean come on, who wants a weekly update without a photo--not me!  ** I promise that is not all I will post about, I am still utterly obsessed with the idea of decorating our new home and weddings.  Super excited for all the fantastic weddings coming up in 2013!!

So there you have it, a re-cap of whats been going on.  Things have been really crazy with the move out, the move in, the hunt for our new home all while being pregnant for the first time!  Lots more to come, seriously, I promise!
