Big News!

I have been a very bad blogger lately. November was a crazy month. September and October were too, for that matter. The Boy's been traveling and hard at work wrapping up things before the end of the year. The Babe's been sick. I've been sick. We've all been stressed. The nights are getting longer and colder and the days are short and grey. And as we enter The Holiday Season, I am reminded that the last time we spent Christmas with our families in The States was 2007.  So, yeah, I've been a little down lately. Sometimes it's so easy to focus on the stuff going wrong that I take for granted all the stuff going right.

And there are a lot of things going right right now. The Boy is happy doing work he loves. The Babe is happy. He loves his new school. And me, well, I have something I've been dying to share with you for a long time.

That's right! Baby #2 is on board! We're 13 weeks and oh so very excited!! The last few months have been exhausting, which is why I haven't been around so much lately. There's been the exhaustion of pregnancy, the exhaustion of running around after a toddler, the exhaustion that comes with a never ending cycle of the flu, plus the mental exhaustion that comes with trying to figure out just how the Danish medical system works. Now that I've been blissfully flu free for the last week and my first trimester is coming to an end, and we kinda sorta have a grasp how things work here, I'm hoping my energy will return and I'll be getting back to posting more regularly.
