Out of the Bubble

Yikes!
It's been 11 months since I last blogged! Time to do a little catchup. I can't catch on everything that's happened in the last 11 months in one post, but I figure that if I do a little bit each day, I'll have this blog up to date!

It's about time to start blogging again. Why's that? Now that my baby boy (we'll call him Baby T) is HERE and growing and changing everyday, I'm finding it hard to keep up to date in my little handwritten journal. When was the last time I recorded his weight? November. I don't want all these little details to get lost, so that's what this blog is for! Also, being a fulltime mommy, I don't want to stay enclosed in the little bubble of the world occupied by just me and Baby T. I've read moms can get so cut-off from the outside world that they lose touch with what other people are interested in. I know Baby T is the most interesting topic in my life, but not everyone will agree. I talk to new people almost everyday in my business (yay!), but I think blogging will help me get those mommy-thoughts out without boring the poor people who have to listen to me blabber on and on....

In a very quick nutshell, here's what happened in the last 11 months (details to follow!):
- Suddenly lost my grandfather and travelled by plane at 33 weeks
- Had an awesome pregnancy until the 37th week
- Had a beautiful and amazing baby shower thrown by one of my best friends ever
- Had a very scary delivery involving cholestatis, getting induced, a fever, infection, and an emergency c-section (all in that order)
- Had, and still have, a beautiful and perfectly healthy baby boy
- Travelled to Vancouver with a 2 month old
- Attended 3 weddings
- My sister got married
- Opened up a green, baby, clothdiapering business
- Had an amazing Christmas at home
- Travelled to Jamaica with a 7 month old
- Took Parent and Tot swim class, joined a mom community, and attend playgroups
- Welcomed 7 new little friends for Baby T (Dawud, Ella, Victoria, Samantha, Rebecca, Khalil, and Prajna!)
- Got spoiled by having S at home for the first 9 months of Baby T's life!

Phew!
