Ambitious Plans

Here I go -- I'm going to try my hand at the world of blogging! I've enjoyed keeping up with others through their blogs, and with a little one due to arrive in about 27 days (!!!), I thought this might help me keep up with photos and updates for friends and family. We'll see how this goes!

I have had a big weekend: yesterday I turned 30 - wow - and I'm now within weeks of having my second child - double wow. My birthday was wonderful, thanks to my awesome husband and many thoughtful friends/family! Even though 30 is a "big" birthday, I think I'm more preoccupied with the reality that a new baby is about to change our lives than I am with entering a new decade. It's sinking in that I have LOTS to do before this little sweetie arrives! I feel my nesting instinct starting to take hold. Below is a current picture of me and my 36-week baby belly. It's out there!

Phil ... great to hear from you and congrats on the coming addition to the Wallace clan!

Things in Fort Wayne are great. Our boys are 12,9, and 6 now ... it's incredible how fast they make the time go by!

I hope all goes well with the baby. Jessie and I will use the blog to keep up with Carrie's progress.

Thanks again for writing.
-Curtis
