Beware, it's a long one!
I'm finally in single digit countdown, in weeks! YAY! Only 9 weeks to go. I really can't believe how fast it's gone. I hope the rest of it goes just as fast. Thank goodness I'm busy with work until the beginning on April and then we are going to San Diego with my family, and after that I'll have to get everything ready for the baby, since we have NOTHING ready for it!
In the last couple of weeks I've been able to feel hiccups. It's so cute. Baby doesn't get them that often or for that long, which I'm glad about, I can't imagine they are pleasant for it.
My hips and pelvis are really starting to hurt, I guess it's all adjusting getting ready for birth. My visits to the chiropractor really help!
I haven't been blogging much because I have been SO busy with work! I'm so excited about the growth my company is experiencing and where it's going. In the last 5 months income has quadrupled!! I've been working with a business coach that has been helping me get all my systems in place and she is also helping me with marketing, it has really been paying off! I now have 7 people that help me. By September I'm going to double my business from where it is right now so that Frank can quit his full time job and come work with me to help with Sales and Marketing. Frank and I just came up with that plan last weekend and The Secret has really been at work since then! Everything has really fallen into place for it to happen. I think I might even be able to take some time off when I have the baby. Well, at least time off from seeing clients and just work a little bit from home, for a couple of weeks. I'm meeting with my business coach in April to come up with a plan for that.
I was having dreams about all of this last night and I woke up and couldn't go back to sleep I was so excited. I felt like that little kid in the Disneyland commercial who's dad tells him to go to sleep and he says, "I'm too excited to sleep," while bursting with excitement!!
My Mom is going to come stay with us for the summer to help with the baby. It's such a huge relief! I really don't want to put my baby in day care and the cost of a nanny is ridiculous and I don't want just anyone taking care of my baby. So we asked my Mom to come stay and she very generously said she would. It will be a fun summer! That's the other part of our motivation for Frank quitting his job, when my company is double what it is now, he can stay home on Tuesdays and Thursdays with the baby and I can stay home the other three days a week. We both will be able to work from home (well, as much as you can with a baby around).
Sorry about such a long post, it's been a long time since I updated everyone and as I'm sure you can tell, I'm VERY excited about everything that's going on!

Wow -- sounds like you have some big changes in the next few months! So glad to hear that things are going good for you guys...hope things work out just like you want them to. That would be so great to have so much time with the baby -- you think you know how much fun they will be and then when they are here, you realize you had no idea. I'm so excited for you!
Congrats w/ your business! It will be nice to have your mom stay with you. Babies are a lot of work and from the sounds of it, you'll be one BUSY mommy! :)
Hooray for single digits and congrats on your business ventures! You need to post a pregnancy pic for us all. :)
You look great! Good Luck with the last 9 weeks. I am excited for you. Good Luck with work stuff too. Sounds like you have a pretty good plan!
