Meet Baby Number 5.
We are so super excited for this little one coming in May! But I did not feel good AT ALL during my first trimester. Verrrrryyyy tired and verrrrryyyy nauseous. (Not as bad as what Heather describes in this hilarious, must-read post of the excellent Mama Knows, Honeychild, but bad enough to feel like a useless blob). And if I had an ounce of energy left, or a minute of feeling decent-ish, I was going to give it to my family.
I'd known I was pregnant since the end of September, but went ahead with my blogging plans because I thought it would help distract me from how bad I felt.
Hahahahahahaha!!!
Ahem. Anyway.
So there you have it! I do hope and plan to be blogging more and finish sharing some of the stories I'd planned for the series. Here's one more picture of Five, practicing the old kick-Daddy-out-of-bed move. This was the first thing we saw the baby do.
If the baby was trying to scare Matt a little... it worked! ;-) Mainly because Five's big brother sleeps, practices kung-fu, and pees in our bed most nights. *sigh* hashtag things to work on before May.
But we're are seriously so, so happy. Like happy-dancing, happy-crying happy. Am I excused for my absence? ;-)
Couldn't think of a better sweeter "excuse" for not blogging...wow! Four children, soon to be FIVE!! Congratulations - and you are certainly excused!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Barbara! And whew! :-)
