busy times, but I'm still here!

     Wow, I've been really awful at making time for my blog lately. Sorry about that everyone! We had a slew of birthdays, then holiday plans and throw in a few other big life changes and we've been too busy to stop and think! There was a fire in our apartment building on thanksgiving and though the only damage we suffered was from our door being kicked in by the fire dept, it took our landlord a FULL MONTH to replace the door. Which ended up being an entire month that we were unable to even lock one of the doors to our apartment. We had to wedge something under it to even keep it closed. Our landlady was fined for a few things in the building that were not up to code and she didn't fix those either so we finally decided enough was enough and moved out. We are staying with Daddy's parents temporarily until we find a place that is a good fit for us. In the meantime we will be able to save up some money as well. Although we had looked at a few places, we both felt like none of them were exactly what we wanted and we decided not to rush into another place and wait to find the right one. Which is extra important now that we are expecting another little one! I'm only about 12 and a half weeks along right now so we figured take our time and find somewhere that we can see ourselves living for at least the next few years. 
     Given all that we've been going through and doing the past couple months, I was always fearful that ttwd was going to fall to the back burner as it has in the past. It didn't, though. We had some patches where it wasn't in the forefront of either of our minds (all day morning sickness, anyone?? Talk about not being in the mood...) but we have managed to keep things running rather smoothly. 
     I haven't had much time to read blogs lately, so it will probably take me some time to catch up on everything that's been going on! Hope everyone's holidays went well!
