spring

March 30th, 2009

I didn’t mean to disappear for most of March, but there was some actual spring weather here for a while then, of course, the stomach flu hit and ruined all the fun. Now the snow is back and spring seems far off again. But there is spring up on the shelf if nothing else. There is another reason I was away this month and have been a crummy blogger since January really: I’m pregnant! 20 weeks today. I’m not one of those women who bear this burden well. It’s pretty much bitching and moaning for most of the nine months in my case (apologies to my friends and family for all the whining).  I got down to my studio this morning and was actually shocked at how fast my sewing machine sewed.  So yeah, it’s been a while since I’ve done any sewing at all.  And I have a to do pile to prove it. But the first trimester is really over now (not just technically over) and I have some energy back, so things might just start happening again. I hope to be here more than I have been, with actual things I’ve made to show you, but if that doesn’t happen you’ll know why.

  1. Congratulations! And complain away – I used to feel like throttling women that said that they enjoyed being pregnant… I hope the rest of your pregnancy is an easy one.

  2. Holy smokes! Congratulations!!!! Oh – double-whammy dealing with first trimester and stomach flu in the house at the same time. Glad that’s over. Wishing you an easy-breezy rest of pregnancy!

    congratulations, Meg! I am looking forward to more blogging and less puking for you over the coming months. On another note, I love your display/photo–just the colors in my dining room kitchen (but with gray walls) right now.

    Oh congratulations!!! Those babies at the end of pregnancy are wonderful, but I too hate those 9 months prior to their arrival ;) I hope the next 20 weeks are relatively smooth for you.

    Yay! That’s so exciting–many congrats! Obviously, I mean the baby is exciting and not the many months of feeling like crap.

    Congrats!! I recently started blogging again after I stopped last fall when I found out I was pregnant. I just couldn’t focus on anything then. What wonderful news :-)
