22 Weeks!

Well, well!  Somebody has been swamped and has fallen behind in updates!  Fear not, I have an excellent reason why this tragedy has occurred.  

It's called AUGUST.  22 amazing, sweet, new first graders entered my life!  I have fallen in love all over again and become engrossed in my work.  Combine that with weekend birthday parties, weddings, friends, family, sore achy feet around 6:00p.m., and doctor's appointments..... and you have the perfect recipe for a lack of blogging.  

I had the best of intentions.  See Exhibit A for proof:

                                                                      Exhibit A

I made this the first week that school started (3 weeks ago).  Unfortunately, that was as far as I got.  

Well, that's enough of my "I feel guilty for not updating, and I am trying to convince you that I have very legitimate reasons...." rant.  

Things are getting exciting around the Klaus House!  Now that we know we are having a girl, we have entered into dreaming and planning mode!  I have been thinking about nursery ideas and slowly, but surely building my registry.  Nick has been talking about how awesome and well-rounded our little girl will be.  She'll be sweet and kind, while at the same time, in love with Batman and all the things her Daddy will teach her about.  He is going to teach her how to change her oil (Note: Her Momma doesn't even know how to do this) and have self-defense skills.  

My pregnancy is going great.  I feel relatively normal (beside the belly).  I feel great during the day and have energy!  By the end of the day, I am quite exhausted, but that's generally the case after a long day at work.  Baby Girl has been kicking for a few weeks now.  I love feeling each and every jab... it reminds me that she is growing, active, and well.  

22 weeks down and only 18 to go!  


P.S.-- She already LOVES her Batman rain boots.
