It's been a while since I came on here and man oh man how things have changed. it's about time I start keeping up with it all.

Life taken a beautiful turn and my significant other and I are now expecting our first child together. I'm already a mom to a wonderful 5 year old but this will be the first time I experience pregnancy and birth and all the joys and hardships of a newborn, yay! As of today I am 7 weeks and 2 days in, I have already started looking at girls names because I'm keeping my fingers, arms, legs, and toes crossed that its a girl. keep your fingers crossed for me too! My other half seems to be genetically disposed to having boys but I am hoping to break that cycle. Yet, no matter what my beautiful bundle ends up being I will love my baby all the same.

Now the craziness begins. Do I find a way to be a stay at home mom or do I find a new job to afford daycare. Oy, now that's the big dilemma right now. Of course I would love to stay home and take care of my world and be the one seeing all the big and little moments, guiding my child in all sorts of directions. I just have to find a way to make it happen.

If any of your have thoughts please feel free to share and toss ideas around. Hearing from you is always appreciated.

Namaste
