did I really need another reason to play on the internet??

oh, but this will will be fun... a journal of the special times in the lives of my family. it will at least help me get over my guilt for not keeping a pregnancy journal!

we are so busy! grace has just started preschool 3 mornings a week. she absolutely loves it and I am amazed at what she has already learned in 2 short weeks. lessons about ideas that I have never even thought to teach her. did I mention the stuff she brings home? it's covering the pantry door and I just can't stop looking at it- I'm so impressed! as if 3 morning a week of preschool wasn't enough for a busy 2 year old, grace is also taking a weekly gymnastics classes as well as a weekly dance class were she is learning ballet and tap.... there will even be a recital!! she loves it all so much that I keep her in it, even though it's a busy schedule.

on top of grace's overbooked life of a preschooler, I'm expecting a new baby in January!!! the children will be exactly 3 years apart. my last appointment included a 15 week ultrasound. the tech seemed pretty sure she was looking at another baby girl... 80% sure to be exact. 80% sounded high to me, so I've gone with it... girl it is! I've chosen fabric for the nursery, purchased an outfit (it was on sale and a perfect coordinate to a dress of grace's- couldn't resist!), and I've started this blog, "2 Pouty Princesses." I will go back for another ultrasound a week from Friday and she should be able to give me an answer that is 100%. oh, the work ahead of me if she was wrong! a new nursery to plan and I'll have to start a new blog with a new name!

I'll be updating and adding pictures often, so drop back in to stay in the loop!
