The Good, The Bad + The Fantastic

There has been lots going on "behind the scenes" that I haven't really been ready to post about, until now. SO, here goes...

(The Good)
I have a new job and I start on Monday, September 26th!

(The Bad)
Just a few days before we left for our week in Hilton Head, I was laid off (August 5th to be exact). Shocking, yes. Did I see it coming? Well, probably...

Back in July, it was announced that the company I worked for was going to be sold. We all thought there wasn't much to worry about until a sale was final. Clearly, we thought wrong because my entire marketing team was let go. All on the same day. It was truly awful.

I honestly felt that I had finally found "the" place. The place that I would remain long term. And, my team. Boy oh boy. My team was fantastic. It was so hard to let go because of them.

I guess you can say vacation couldn't have come at a better time. And, while on vacation...

(The Fantastic)
Charlotte Is Going To Be A Big Sister!

We found out we are expecting our second child! Charlotte is going to be a big sister! A positive test on August 10th, confirmed by doctor on September 2nd. This is our first "official" announcement and I have such goosebumps while writing this :)

We're due April 10th and are currently 11.5 weeks. We just couldn't contain ourselves any longer. Charlotte already knows and is super excited (more on that later!)! Our first ultrasound is below...

The look of the blog has been updated too! Lots of (good!) changes going on all over the place! Be sure to check out all of the NEW links under "Find Your Way Around" (on the right)!
