Little Life Update

So I am finally feeling good enough to write another blog post. So much has happened that I want to write about. But I'll start with a basic update.

Manarola, Cinque Terre Italy

In August, Jacob and I enjoyed a two-week vacation in Italy; something we really wanted to do before having kids. We traveled through Rome, Cinque Terre, Florence and Siena. It was really hot, but absolutely wonderful. My master plan is to write a blog post about each place. We'll see if that happens.

About a few months ago (September), my husband and I found out that I am pregnant. Now I'm 4 1/2 months along. Oh yeah, and we're having twins - a boy and a girl! We are so excited and we're looking forward to all of the new adventures we will experience.

Jacob and Me (4 Months Pregnant)

The reason that I haven't written a blog in so long is because I was one of the lucky pregnant women to meet morning sickness face-to-face. Oh yeah, and it's not anything like how they make it seem in movies and on TV; where the character woman simply "spits up". No, it is like having a flu all the time and for me it lasted 2 1/2 months. Morning Sickness also brought her friends - Migraines and Mood Swings. lol. Luckily, I started feeling better a few weeks ago - just in time for the holidays. I feel like my old self again - with some minor side effects.

So what's on my plate now? I've started the process of converting our guest room / office / "drop the junk in here room" into the baby room. Jacob and I registered at Baby's R Us and realized just how much "stuff" comes with these little ones - especially since there's two. So, we need to get rid of a lot of stuff. That's all for now. My goal is to get back into the swing of blogging - so get your eyes and minds ready!
