Another Change

It's crazy how life can change so much, so fast! Shortly after I made the decision/plan to work as a full time designer at Isabella, we found out we were pregnant!
We definitely were planning/trying for a baby, but it was a bit overwhelming how it all happened literally at the same time! I was adjusting to my new routine of getting up and going to a 9-5 again while battling morning (ALL DAY!) sickness. Luckily, I had both Zofran and Erin (owner of Isabella, who was very supportive). But as I have mentioned before, I had little time/energy to do anything else... which can explain my blog hiatus!

I'm finally getting back into the swing of things and feeling better, but I haven't quite mastered the art of regular blog posting AND working full time. But I'll get there!

And somewhat related to interior design, I cannot WAIT to decorate the nursery!! Our kitchen is almost finished, and this will be my next (and probably final) project in this house:
It's pretty much a blank slate... I bought the glider YEARS ago when Crate & Barrel had it on major clearance. I'm glad I have that purchase out of the way ;) This room had the ugliest 80's wallpaper ever, and we've already peeled it off. So now we just need to find out the sex, and I can get going! :)

Thanks again for sticking around while I've been going through these crazy life transitions... I think I'm on the upswing now :) Life is good, and we are SOOOOOOOO happy & excited about this baby!

  2. I've never commented before, but just wanted to say congrats! I feel like the whole world is pregnant now- or maybe it's just my own self absorption. But you and Sherry from YHL in April, and I'm due in May... basically I completely get your whole morning sickness/can't do anything all day long thing. Glad you're feeling better, and good luck with the next couple of months!

  3. Congrats Bryn! Hope you're feeling better... enjoy decorating the nursery, it will be fab. If you haven't already visited Shower me with Love and Magic Windows here in Charlotte, I highly recommend. Both of those places made me SO excited as I was in the throws of preparing/nesting for baby.

  24. I've never commented before either but I follow along daily, so I feel a big Congratulations is in order! I too had all day sickness until 16 weeks and had to take Zofran, although it's side effects are no picnic either. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with for the nursery, and later on I'm sure, decorating with kids in mind!
