Life and Changing Lifestyle

Since early March I’ve been busy writing, but not busy publishing anything. Well, to be honest, I was busy writing during those moments when I wasn’t rolling around on the floor in tears of pain or falling asleep as soon as I sat down on the sofa. See where I’m going yet? No? OK, let me drop a few more clues.

This year Ben and my life’s taken a bit of a turn and even though we still have a few months to go before things really go topsy turvy, the changes we’ve been through are fairly massive. For one, I haven’t been able to do my usual 12 miles or so of running each week, my diet has drastically changed (for the worse if you ask me) and Ben’s been researching car seats. Yeah, I know you all know what I’m talking about now. We’re expecting a little Trooper this year.

We haven’t said anything before because we mostly wanted to enjoy a private moment. Surprisingly enough, despite the blog, I’m still a fairly private person believe it or not. The second reason was, we wanted to make sure that Trooper is a OK. We didn’t want to tell people only to have to “untell” them later down the line. But hiding a pregnancy is easier said than done. Why? Read my First Trimester post to find out.
