what are you waiting for, huh?

...I think this blog title is some kind of taunt from a victim to a psycho in a horror film. I could be wrong.

Nonetheless, what was I waiting for? Per my usual M.O., I overloaded my life with craziness and haven't had time to do anything but a fast-food drive-thru blog. Pathetic, really. And perhaps a sign that I need to slow down, especially since I'm at the halfway point of my pregnancy. Nah...that's crazy talk.

But I suppose I should at least catch up with where I left off at the last blog.

Four weeks ago I was relaxing in San Jose, CA with Kelsey. We had a fantastic weekend! I saw Black Swan for the first time (again, what was I waiting for, huh?), got a whirlwind walking tour of SJSU and San Francisco, spent an afternoon in Santa Cruz enjoying food on the pier and watching Kelsey get pooped on by seagulls, laughed at an Anjelah Johnson show at The Improv, went toe-to-toe with a surly car rental agent to get some money back (and won), and then spent a day relaxing before flying home to be back with hubby. Amazing.

Since then, I have had three of the most whirlwind weeks at work and at home. Golf tournament. Meetings. Three-day management training. Meetings. Awards breakfast attended by 600 people. Meetings. Projects. Meetings. Planning for Summer Day Camp (yikes...only 18 days of school left!). Meetings. Bittersweet going away party for one of my favorite Branch Executives. Meetings. Surprise party for my step dad. Meetings. Easter. And did I mention meetings?

This week, Steven and I went for our anatomy ultrasound and got to see our baby as an actual baby (compared to the tadpole alien looking thing it was at 7 weeks). SHE is healthy! She! I'm going to have a daughter. More crazy talk. I can't believe I'm going to be someone's mother.

In the spirit of staying consistent with buseyness, on the slate for this weekend is a build with Habitat for Humanity, spending time with one of Steven's friends at the movies, and then enjoying the beginning of May.

MAY?!?! How did that happen?

Time to slow down and smell the roses. And maybe start the baby registry.
