A Quick Update

Sorry for the silence over here the past few weeks. We’ve been quite busy traveling and getting ready for the holidays. We managed to take a weekend trip to Germany and Belgium to visit the Christmas markets in Cologne and Brussels a few weeks back, which I have been meaning to post about, and KC and I headed to Paris the following weekend and basically saw and ate everything in the city (so wonderful!) Our Paris trip was quickly followed by mine and Prim’s flight back to California, which requires quite a bit of work both before and after the actual flight, so posting to the blog took a backseat to real life issues like keeping my child from getting a lifetime ban from ever flying KLM and then navigating the wonderfully tricky world of toddler jet lag.

On a sadder note, my beloved MacBook Air recently blew up on me. After 3 years I somehow managed to fry the logic board AND charger in one go, which is a whopping $600 to fix. And spending $600 on a 3 year old computer that was $950 brand-new seemed a little silly, so I’m currently laptop-less. First world problems for sure, but a bit of a problem blog-wise nonetheless.

I hope that you’re enjoying the holidays and that your self-control around all the treats is much better than mine. I’ll get around to posting about all of our trips eventually, but things will likely be pretty quiet over here over the next couple of weeks still, as we’re spending our time with family and friends while we’re here in California.

There is a pregnancy post coming up tomorrow and probably an anniversary post later this week (if I can get my act together), so if you’re into big bellies and mushy sentiment, stay tuned!

Happiest of holidays, you guys. You’re the best.

PS: Isn’t that little Christmas elf under the tree just the cutest? My mom took this picture of her and the next day she grabbed my hand, led me to the tree and sat right down in front of it and yelled “picture!” at me. This girl is too much.
