A New Year


It is officially a new year and I can not wait to experience all that 2010 will bring especially the arrival of my little Angel in May. This past year was an interesting one...holding some of my worst experiences and ones that will forever be measured as my best. My life has changed so much since this time last year. I went from measuring my success by the length I had climbed on a corporate latter to now measuring it by my experiences with friends and family. Change brings new challenges that can remind us that we are capable of more than we ever thought possible. I have opened my own company and started consulting but not for the original purpose I had many years ago of making lots of money but for finding happiness in what I do and spending more time with my family.

20 weeks

I am officially 20 weeks pregnant! It amazes me how time can fly by without you even knowing it. I'm half way there and everyday I continue to ponder the question I am constantly asked, "Are you having a boy or a girl?" The wait is closing and we hope to know as early as next week!
The most amazing gift I have been given this holiday is feeling the baby for the first time! There are no words that can accurately describe this feeling but... it is amazing, miraculous and life changing! While the baby doesn't "flutter or pop" constantly he/she is pretty active with what I can only imagine is some form of acrobatics.

Promise and Commitment

I promise to blog more and share this special time in my life so that I never forget! ;)
