Baby Update: R.I.P.

Just like my baby announcement post, this update will be very simple as well.

As you probably deduced from this post’s title, I have had a miscarriage.

My husband & I are experiencing a wide range of emotions, but are confident we will try again in a few years when his military career is more stable & we can both spend more time with the baby.

Heartfelt thank yous go out to everyone in my personal life who has already heard the news & offers up their condolences.

Understandably, this blog may continue to be quiet for another week or so, but soon I will be back to taking photos, posting my opinions, and giving you updates about my book projects.

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT! 2+1=3: I’m Pregnant!

No fancy pictures. No jazzy fonts. Just the straight news that …

I’M PREGNANT!

My husband & I found out last week, but couldn’t tell the internet world until all our family members could share in the exciting news. We arrived in Florida yesterday & surprised his mom with a grandparenting book. She picked up on the clue right away – there was lots of screaming & hugging.

My current due date is November 2nd (currently 7 weeks along), though it is common in my family for the first baby to be 1-2 weeks late. As you’d expected, there will be baby updates here on the blog, along with all the other nifty things you already expect.

So … there you go, the 1st of my 2 BIG ANNOUNCEMENTS.
