Ah, Shucks

Well its kind of a downer when you go and announce you're coming back to the blog-world then spend another 3 months doing just the opposite!  I realized its truly been too long when I just started typing in "www.vee..." and it didn't even appear in my history that I haven't cleared out in months.  Sad indeed.  But, hey, we all get fresh, clean starts right?

There's truly so much that I've missed sharing with this little space on the internet, and I think I'm finally at a place where I may be able to let my grip on things loosen and just be open.  Anyways, I don't think God calls us to be silent, or to hold things so closely to ourselves that we aren't letting others in (well I let most "in real life" friends in, but you know what I mean).  Last year was a rocky year for this little family.  It had some of the highest highs and the lowest lows I've ever experienced in just 12 months.  You know what's amazing? It all turned out for the good.  One of my biggest fears was lived for 7 months (still deciding if I'll elaborate more on this in the coming months), but also one of my biggest dreams was realized.  

Would you like to hear about that big ol' dream?  Many of you have already seen the photo below that we shared on Facebook, but for those that haven't, here you go!

This is me with our little babe at 18 weeks.  That's 5 weeks ago.  Oh boy do I have so many things to share with you in the coming days.. baby V's gender, our nursery plans and progression, dreams we have for this little one and so much more. While I'll try not to bombard with too much BABY(!), I have to warn, it might come on strong. At first.  Then, I'll back off :)  Please forgive me in advance, but we're SO EXCITED!
