Anabelle is going to be a big sister! She couldn't be more thrilled. Well, really right before I snapped this picture I asked if she wanted some chocolate and she jumped up and down, and squealed, "yes!" So let's pretend she was really squealing for her future baby brother, okay? But really, she is super excited and talks about lil bro all the time.
Let's back up a minute. I took this picture during a brief rain intermission while it was incredibly windy. Before we even got out of the car, she said, "no pictures mom." She wasn't having it. I even had to bribe her with chocolate to get a smile out of her. After I told her, "okay, let's go home and paint" before the rain got us, she immediately let go of the remaining three balloons. Ensue toddler tantrum the entire way home.
But anyway, we're having a baby boy! I'm 18 weeks along, and I have to admit, it's been the most exhausting 18 weeks of my life. Being pregnant with a toddler is no joke. Hence the lack of blogging, reading or being on social media. Whew. Luckily the second trimester has given me a break.
In other BIG NEWS, I'm opening a shop for mamas and their little free spirits! I've been working on this for months, and severe fatigue and a cold delayed the shop opening. But it's almost here. In just a few short weeks, the shop will be open! I can't even begin to tell you how stoked I am! See all the exclamation points?!
I hope you'll follow me on this new journey and update your reader to the new site: freethreadsblog.blogspot.com. The new site will go live TOMORROW, so don't miss it.
Thanks for sticking with me this far :)
Can't wait to hear more about this new shop and CONGRATULATIONS! So exciting :) The first trimester is kicking my ass... I've never been so emotional/exhausted/checked out in all my life. blogging is definitely on the back burner for a bit, I just can't take the pressure.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yes, the first trimester sure is tough. I'm glad you're giving yourself a break. Your sanity and health are way more important!
