My friend Jenny has had several "Ten Things Tuesday" blog entries. I have thought about doing one for a while but haven't gotten around to it until now.
The things I miss about being pregnant:
1. the big round TIGHT belly that looked cute in most clothes
2. the anticipation of finding out if we were having a boy or girl
3. feeling every move
4. not really worrying about exercise even when the waist was quickly expanding
5. being the only one who knew when Gracyn had the hiccups
(which she continues to have about 4 times daily!)
6. not feeling too guilty when I pigged out on ice cream while watching The Biggest Loser.
7. having the excuse of not being able to reach your toes = pedicure!
8. being tired after working all week, going home to all the work a mother must also do at home, and being pregnant = manicure to go with pedicure!
9. the nesting phase- I sure did get a lot of things organized and cleaned up! Wish I were motivated like that more often!
10. Carrying with me, at all times, a constant reminder of the miracle that was growing inside of me. Thank you God for allowing me to have the honor of being Gracyn's mommy.

Life with two little ones..
I am trying to adjust to our new life. I can honestly say that it is wonderful and very easy at times. At other times I feel so confident and then I get blindsided by all the things that need to be taken care of right then! I know all of you moms out there understand. I am going to try o make blogging a part of my schedule again. I miss all of my friends that I keep up with online! I just feel blessed to know that I don't have to go back to work until April 13th. Only six weeks of work and I will be off for the summer! Here are some pictures that capture our current routines.
Enjoying yummy treats on Valentine's day- Carter would have eaten all 5 pieces in the box if I had let him!
We also spend a lot of time just looking at our little girl.
Gracyn's first bath, with lots of help from her big brother.
Of course Carter has been playing ball(baseball, basketball, and football). Here he is perfecting his catcher's stance.
Gracyn just sits back and takes it all in. So far she is very laid back!
