I just wanted to pop on here and wish everyone a very Happy New Year :)
.
I hope y'all had a wonderful Christmas too. Ours was very low-key this year - I spent extra time on the couch as I STILL haven't been feeling any better (for a bit there I started feeling worse - so not fun). Thankfully though everyone's been pretty understanding with it all.
.
I just passed the 14-week mark with this pregnancy - we're hoping it means that soon I'll start to feel better (I have all my fingers crossed for that) and that I'll start having an appetite again. These past couple of months have been very difficult and a lot of tasks have been piling up. Added to that all the holidays and celebrations and being busy at work I've been feeling extra overwhelmed and stressed (and having EVERYONE tell me "not to stress" and let it all go isn't helping LOL - I always have a lot on the go and a lot on my plate and letting it all slide for 2 months has just made it worse. Owning my own business means there are a lot of things that HAVE to be done and I'm the only person to do them. Catching up and getting everything done that NEEDS to be done will be quite the job....but that's all a side-note for now).
.
Anywho - we've *just* started purchasing some baby items (the after-Christmas sales were too good to pass up - I just saved a fortune on the car seat and stroller combo!) - since we're starting from scratch! We got rid of ALL the baby stuff years ago. We weren't planning on ever having more kids and after our two a lot of it wasn't in very good shape anyway (and with all the new regulations things like car seats and whatnot expire so it would have been useless to keep them anyway) - so we're LITERALLY starting with nothing.
.
Trying to figure out and budget all these new purchases is another little hurdle we're working on - but a bit of a fun one too. There is way more out there and a lot more options for baby gear than there ever was 7-10 years ago when I had my girls!
.
So besides all the regular life chaos I am hoping that I can get back into stamping and filming videos for y'all SOON. It's been so many weeks since I've made anything - I just haven't had the energy (creative or otherwise) and sitting at the computer for more than a few minutes makes me nauseous. Hopefully that passes ASAP.
.
I also wanted to thank everyone for the well-wishes and kind comments here, on my YouTube channel and my Facebook page. It's been very much appreciated! ((((hugs))))

It's hard to believe 2012 is nearly over. 2013 will prove to be an interesting and exciting year and I can't wait to see what all it brings! :)
