Big Project Reveal

I have not been painting lately. Not really been doing too much of anything exciting.  Chris is home more, which means more family time and I'm loving it.

(I love when I can get a picture of Chloe's laugh, instead of her weird fake camera smile!)

I am ready to reveal the project I've been working on lately. It's a very big project. It should take about 34 more weeks to complete! 

Did you guess it? I'm 6 weeks pregnant!  Right now our little baby is the size of a lentil bean.

I am the WORST at keeping secrets. I can't do it. I have told everyone.  You would think that because a few months ago we had a miscarriage that I would be terrified to tell anyone.  Yes, it was devastating.  Yes, it was one of the worst experiences of my life.  Guess what.... sharing the joy and excitment can not cause a miscarriage!  There is no reason to not tell people because everyone should celebrate and share the joy with us! Worrying is a waste of time and engery.  Something bad could happen to anyone at any time. Sometimes all we have is today and we should celebrate today instead of worrying about tomorrow.  We are very excitied and thrilled about the upcoming year and all the joy pregnancy and a new baby will bring.

I feel good this time around. I feel happy and grateful to be nauseous! I am a little tired.  Ok, actually I am completed exhausted. I read somewhere that if you put your hands on your head and stare at your desk people will think you are working really hard and you can sleep... I might try this! Just kidding.  I am exhausted though.  In fact, I am dog tired and lately I have been going to sleep the same time as Chloe every night!

(This is my favorite picture ever, I had to throw it in somewhere!)

It's like I've been squeezed dry of energy.  This does not stop me from being happy and glowing with joy all day long with excitement.  I am so lucky to work with amazing and supportive people.  My boss said this is the first time in 18 years since he opened the firm that anyone has been pregnant working there!  Everyone is very excited for the office baby!  I can't wait to have a big ole pregnant belly again, like this...

My lack of energy is to blame for my lack of blog posts lately.  Plus, I don't have anything to paint.  Someone did give me this cute little shelf last night...

Maybe a shelf for the baby's room? Maybe a shelf for the kitchen or dining room or Chloe's room? I'm waiting for inspiration to strike before I decide what color to paint it.  I desperately need to go thrifting to find something to paint.  In the meantime, my body is working non-stop creating a little baby!
