Must.... Do.... My.... Job.......

....which is no easy task after returning from the most kick-ass vacation I've ever taken since my own honeymoon. Cole and I went to St. Thomas/St. John (US Virgin Islands) and Jost Van Dyke (British Virgin Islands) to watch two of our friends get married. Obviously, one would expect that such a vacation should be pretty interesting, but this was INCREDIBLE. Awesome wedding/reception, friendly people, fantastic sightseeing and perfect weather. Can someone else please have a destination wedding and invite us? I promise we'll give you an awesome gift. :)

Check out the pictures below and you'll see why I haven't been able to concentrate at work for the past 3 days!!

10 years ago....

I am not sure why I keep thinking about it. Maybe it's the presence of numerous coworkers meandering around the office in various stages of pregnancy, or the "Welcome So-and-so's Baby!!" emails that I keep receiving from our executive assistant. Perhaps it's the sentence in a magazine article about the benefits of exercise during pregnancy that totally rubbed me the wrong way. It could be the sinking feeling I got when I saw a picture of a gorgeous new mother in the obituary pages a couple of weeks ago. Or maybe it's because almost exactly a decade ago, I could literally feel my brain rotting from the inside as I lived with postpartum depression and OCD after the birth of my first child. Should I really be blogging about this? People are probably going to judge me, but hey, whatever. If I can help another mom who is going through it, then I guess I should say something. Right?
