We are in week 20 and cannot hide the fact that Brandy has a bun in the oven! A net gain of 10-12 pounds depending on the day, maternity wear (thanks mom for the stylish new wear!) and absolutely no heels are not helping the spirits, but the halfway mark and a recent visit back east sure helped... oh and n
ot to mention the most incredible husband in the world!We made our way back to Boston (an easy 10 hour flight) and made our travel straight to a Dunkin Donuts before we called home (sorry Moms and dad!) for a french vanilla iced coffee (deca
f for mama) and bagel sandwich... ahhhh. We had been jonesin'. We made our stay at the Richards Inn and breakfast (best meal in town... especially when guest chef Karen comes over to assist master chef papa-in-law, Matt!). Christmas time was spent between the two families and we even got to see a few friends in the mix of it all. We definitly didnt get to see anyone as much as we woul
d have liked to. All the babies are growing so much while we were 
away the last six months. It is sad to think that we might not see them for another year. Mama-in-law Cheryl and auntie-to-be Traci hosted a babyshower with a lot of help from family. What an amazing spread. It was so nice to see the ladies from both of Matt's family together, along with a few of my missed friends! We appreciate the help that everyone gave us, it 
will be much needed. Now I just have to wait for the nesting to kick in and we can shop and decorate!

I dont regret it. I cant get enough sleep! We are back to work, business as usual. It is a nosehair freezing ten below outside our house (thanks to our nifty LL Bean gift from grandma dutra!). We are lucky that we have so much to look forward to in the next few months, otherwise we can see how this weather can be daunting for some. We are still lovin' life!!!!
