It's been a year and a half since I last blogged. A YEAR AND A HALF! I've missed blogging, but hadn't felt the desire to start back. To be honest, it's time consuming and when I was blogging before, I was working outside the home and I would blog at work (what, are they going to fire me now?) Also, when I was blogging before I didn't have a whole lot going on in my life besides keeping a tiny human alive, and as luck would have it, I've been really successful at it! I didn't feel like I had much to talk about, but now I do.
I finally felt the urge to start back when my mom started in on me about our upcoming arrival. For years I ragged her because there weren't many pictures of her pregnant with me, but there were millions of her pregnant with my older sister. In fact, at one point in my life my sister had me convinced I was adopted. I swore I would give equal attention to each and every pregnancy. Wrong. I haven't taken the first belly picture with this pregnancy and I'm 23 weeks along. With Miller I had a weekly play-by-play of my belly growth, hormones and cravings. Poor baby boy won't have as many pictures in the womb, but I intend to have enough so he realizes he was, in fact, carried by me for 9 long (hot) months.
So, there you have it. Guilt has gotten me back in the game, but I'm glad to be back! And what have we been up to in the past 19 months? Here's a very quick recap.

I guess we have been pretty busy these last few months, but we are so excited about the newest journey we've started. As I mentioned before, we sold our home & bought some land. We are getting ready to break ground on our next (and hopefully long-term) home! We are beyond excited and I can't wait to take you on the journey with us!
