Summer Maternity

Hello neglected blog how I have missed thee!

It's been awhile since the last post and I'm feeling rather distant from the easy flow of words/thoughts that typically come but I guess this will be the post that will get me back on track.

Work is officially done and I am back on maternity leave and expecting a darling daughter in the next month. Anthony and I have been trying our best to prepare Jack for the birth of his sister - we've read some books with him, he kisses my belly and calls the baby by name (or what we thought would be the name but have since decided we are undecided), he plays in her nursery, and puts his baby to sleep quite nicely. I am confident he will be a great big brother. The journey to come shall be amazing, challenging, life altering and tons of fun!

Anthony's hand is in blue, Jack's "waving hand" is in green and mine is in red.

We've been busy getting the house and yard prepared for summer enjoyment and boy I tell ya it's been difficult with all the rain and now the heat (not to mention the pesty misquotes). Why is it that everything is so much harder when your pregnant and it's hot, and you have to bend down 800 times a day? My days with Jack consist mainly of playing hockey, books, puzzles, coloring, dancing, watering/weeding plants and zoo trips - we manage to do some laundry and stay clean on occasion. I WOULDN'T WANT IT ANY OTHER WAY!

AND WAIT FOR IT... EAT YOUR HEART OUT LADIES!

Happy Day!
