Junie None Designs: Expanding!

... Well, not the business. The designer is expanding (that's me). I'm so excited to finally be able to share our news: I'm pregnant! It's been a LONG 14 weeks, since I get extremely sick (we're talking major throwing up if I even move) for the first 3 months of pregnancy. So that's the REAL reason this blog and my etsy shop have been so neglected. But I'm feeling much better and each day am able to reclaim a little bit of my life. I'm excited to get back to sewing, excited to be able to post some fun pregnancy-related posts here on the blog... heck, I'm even excited to clean my house! It's amazing what 3 months of being an invalid can do for one's perspective.

I do have to give a huge shout-out (did I actually just use that phrase?) to my husband, who has been an absolute SAINT while I was sick. Every morning he got up early with the little guy and let me sleep in as late as I wanted. He went to work late, took Moses to work with him many days, and came home early. He did the grocery shopping, made all the meals, did the dishes, and even vacuumed and dusted the entire house (all this while running his landscaping business). He never hesitated to make a late-night trip to the grocery store to find me the ONE THING I could eat and made me toast at all hours of the day. Best of all, he did it all without even one sigh of frustration or accusing look in my direction as I sat suffering on the couch. He was WONDERFUL - much better that I would have been in his position. What a stud. Thanks Brett!

That is SO awesome (the pregnancy, not the sickness). I totally knew it, too! Super congratulations, and I hope you feel much better asap.

Hilarious title! I hear Portland maternity wards give out batches of free fabric...

(Okay, okay...FABRICated)

And we're so glad Saint Brett is available to help Kev!! Stay tuned for officially obscure demolition duty details. (Yes, that's right...)

Isn't it SO nice to rejoin the human race and actually want to *live* again?
I'm so thrilled for you guys! And I know I've already told you but I am getting serious girl vibes from your belly. Can I win something from your shop if I'm right? ;)
