24 Weeks

  • I'm not 25 anymore.
  • My body KNOWS it's not 25 anymore.
  • Being pregnant at almost 34 is harder than it was in the past ... and having 5 kids on top of that.  But Isla is TOTALLY worth it.  So excited to meet her!
  • I've found sleepers and cute things for her to wear ... fun swaddling blankets adorable socks.  It's fun doing girl clothes again.
  • I am sad that it's Easter time ... I've been craving Cadbury Eggs.  *sigh*  they're so good right now.
  • Matt and I went on a little "vacation" to the ocean for 2 nights.  It was a nice break.  Thanks to Aunt Karen for watching all the kids.  We ate out for almost every meal, we went to sleep when we were tired and didn't have to wake up and get out of bed for anyone.  It had been 6 years since we had had a kid-less night ... I hope it's not 6 more years for another one.
  • It's been an interesting journey being pregnant for the 6th time.  I find that there are 2 types of people.  People who know it's #6 and find it amazing/interesting/shocking and want to talk about why and all of that ... and then there are people who know it's #6 and totally ignore the very fact that I'm pregnant and having another baby; as if it doesn't warrant even their interest.  I guess I'm getting used to being different and abnormal in this world.  It's definitely been different this time.

I am thrilled you are having #6! No one could do it better than you.

I am glad you and Matt got to get away for a bit...that is always rejuvenating!
