FINALLY FRIDAY


TGIF!!

My goal for the weekend is to declutter my house!! I am starting tonight. I have made me a "To-Do" list which always seems to help me. I hope to have everything off my list by the time Monday morning arrives. Everything seems to always get cluttered during the holidays.




Also, I have some very EXCITING NEWS to share with everyone.

Another reason I was not posting as much on my blog during December, was because my mom was diagnosed with endometrial cancer right before Thanksgiving. As everyone knows, when you hear the word cancer you always think/prepare for the worst. She had a complete hysterectomy on December 22. She was only in the hospital for 1 night and then she came to my house to stay for several days during Christmas. She did great with the surgery. No problems during her recovery. They also removed some lymph nodes to test. Yesterday, we went for a follow up at the oncologist.............COMPLETE SUCESSS!!! I am so happy to let you know that she is great, healing well, pathology report was great and NO radiation needed!!

What a great way to start the New Year off!!

Have a great weekend and I'll see you Monday!!

NEW YEAR'S ANNOUNCEMENT ....

I'M PREGNANT!!!

I am 18 weeks pregnant with my 2nd child. I have known for 2 months but I waited until after my 1st trimester to share the news. I told my family and friends Christmas.

We are very excited but it was a little bit of a shock. I tried for 4 years to get pregnant with Payton and I ended up having to take medication due to having PCOS.

If you have noticed, I have not been posting as much on my blog in the past month. I stay so sleepy and my energy is completely gone by the time I get off work everyday. I really have to push myself in the evenings just to get Payton dinner and a bath. I feel like I am sleeping my life away on the weekends. Hopefully, this will pass soon.

My due date is June 11. I have 22 +/- weeks to go!!
