so much on my mind right now

So much on my mind right now and so little time to blog about it. It seems when I am most busy, I just can't find the time or energy to sit down and write about all these amazing things that are happening. But I fear that if I don't stop for a moment and take the time to get these thoughts and ideas down that they will just disappear and I won't be able to remember what this time of my life was like. And really what's a blog for but to share the events and details from your life with others....and so here's what's been happening over the past while. 

For starts I am now 29 weeks pregnant and am truly excited, thankful and in awe of this whole process. As I get closer and closer to my date  I just can't help but feel a mix of amazing emotions and wonder so many things. Like what will our little guy be like? What  and who will he look like? And most importantly, how well will we rise to the occasion of becoming new parents?Life is about to change forever for hubby and I and I know that we are both really excited for it. 

And then as if having a baby weren't exciting and life changing enough, one Sunday about a month ago we decided to go look at houses, "just for fun" we said. Well what do you think happened? We fell in love with a sweet little house and later that day found ourselves making an offer that was accepted. My sister jokingly said, "what's up with pregnant people deciding to move JUST when they are about to have their baby." Seriously! Apparently we like to make things more complicated for ourselves. But at the end of the day we are going to have that home that I have wanted for such a very long time. A home that we can make into our very own. A  home with a garden, a fireplace, comfy reading spots and a lovely park just down street. We will just have to make it work. 

And finally my school year is coming to an end and soon I will be saying good bye to an amazing group of students and an amazing school. I feel so very lucky to have been able to teach at Ancaster High for the past semester and will miss it there so much. I've had so much fun being able to focus on teaching only art and have so many ideas that I hope to share over the next few months.

And so I'm sure you can understand why it's been a busy few months for us. And for some reason I have this sneaking suspicion that it's only about to get even more busy. Above is a picture of hubby and me taken today when we had a lovely picnic with my aunt and her partner. We don't have many pictures of us together, especially while I am pregnant so I am happy that she offered to take it. As you can see I am getting bigger and bigger.
