Matt and I went in for my 20-week ultrasound this week, fully expecting that our hunch would be confirmed and that we would be told by the tech that it was a boy kicking around in there. Guess we’ll never be trusting our hunches again! Baby girl wasn’t exactly being cooperative though, so it …
The Lost Weeks
Sometimes I wonder if I’ll look back at the last four and a half months of my life and wonder what in the world I was up to. I had relied on blogging as my personal journal for so long that now, looking back at the scarcity of posts, I’m wondering how I let so …

Birthday Week
Well folks, I’m 28 big ones today. You wanna know how I celebrated? By having to work over 12 hours due to parent-teacher conferences while running on way less sleep than normal. Luckily, although Matt nor I celebrated much for our birthdays this year (his was last week), we have an awesome trip …
